Inside Look: The Whiskey on Restaurant Row

The Whiskey, located on Sand Lake Road’s “Restaurant Row”, offers award-winning gourmet burgers that are always ground fresh and cooked to order as well as craft cocktails.

If you are a big fan of burgers and whiskeys for a great price, look no further than The Whiskey’s happy hour menu. Their happy hour runs daily from Monday through Friday from 4-7pm and offers a variety of appetizers, burgers, and $6.50 Jack Daniels every day.

Their culinary team continually strives to put out the most visually stunning plates, while offering an elevated twist to your palate. To accomplish this, they use local ingredients from their eggs, produce, grass fed game meats, hormone & range free chicken and organic produce.

As you may expect from an establishment named The Whiskey, the restaurant proudly serves over 600 kinds of its namesake whiskey, including Bourbon, Scotch, & Rye so guests can explore the whiskeys of the world.

Katie Zagaroli, owner of The Whiskey, explained to us how the restaurant came to fruition: “It got started on the way to a Motley Crue concert! We knew we were opening a whiskey bar/restaurant and wanted to offer the best burgers. On the way to the show we were thinking of names and “Down at The Whiskey” by Motley Crue came on and we decided on The Whiskey. Obviously we knew we wanted to offer live rock music as well!” They host live band music at the restaurant, playing each night from 8pm-11pm.
