Review

The Anderson may look out onto a five lane highway rather than the beach but it does sit opposite Marine Max with luxury boats stacked three high. Despite the lack of nearby ocean, the Anderson even has its own beach shack bar and terrace.

Inside the large space is divided into two rooms - one with a black countered island bar surrounded by black walls, the other side with a leopard skin covered stage housing the baby grand and often a jazz band with red leather booth seating and tartan wallpaper. It's New York kitsch but cool.

The best aspect of The Anderson is its craft cocktails.
