@Wes Mantooth I don't know if you went to Whiskey Street last time you were here and I don't know if it's become one of these "overrated" spots that everyone here tells everyone out of town to go to, but I was there last Tuesday and it seemed like a place you might like if you're ever in town. Huge whiskey menu, literally a few hundred different types ranging from $6 to $500 per serving, easily 10 different options in the $100-$500 range. I'm gonna make the safe assumption that it's the biggest whiskey selection in the state. Their food menu is small enough that I think they can keep good quality and consistency.
We started just up the street at Post Office Place which is a small plates restaurant connected to Takashi Sushi. They didn't have desert and my wife wanted dessert so we walked the 1.5min it took to get to Whiskey street and had some really good dessert and a couple drinks. It was packed on a Tuesday evening. They have a couple ok TVs and they were playing NBA games on both of them.
Overall it's a decent little area. There are like 8 reasonably good places to eat right there. It's the area I think about when I daydream about opening a restaurant.
