Here’s some good information from loyal reader Mitch:
Decades Restaurant Bar has changed its name and has released an all new menu. Since reopening in Sept. of 2008, after moving out of the Best Western downtown, the establishment has been serving up great food, and live Jazz, in its new upscale 81 Broadway location.
Unfortunately, many people whom have not yet visited the restaurant believe that it is still Decades the night club. To that end, they have dropped the name Decades and are now going by Olive or Twist Restaurant and Bar.
The menu features steaks, seafood, and salads, as well as a small plates menu featuring 27 small appetizers showcasing many different world flavors and styles. They also feature a martini menu with over 60 martini’s. They are soon releasing a house infused bacon vodka, which people are already begging to try. They have live music every Friday and Saturday, and have two excellent house jazz bands that play from 7:30-11pm.
From the menu:
“Welcome to Olive or Twist. A locally owned restaurant and lounge, noted for sophistication, comfortable upscale atmosphere, adventurous world flavors, and refined entertainment. We feature a menu of various small plates meant for sharing, and entrees inspired by cuisines from around the globe, and have imparted our own twist on these culinary styles.
