Everyone knows 6Smith around here. I'd say it is one of the most popular bar/restaurants in the area. They are known for their craft cocktails, even being named one of the top 40 bars in MN by the MPLS St. Paul Magazine. Food is excellent and you can't beat the location. Its right on the water! https://www.6smith.com/hours-location
