You might be the straightest Glenn Beck fan in St. Louis County with zero interest in the fabulous life, but you'd still be an idiot to write off Absolutli Goosed. This award-winning gay and lesbian lounge has one of the most expansive martini menus in the city, with names like Pussy Galore, Banana Hammock and Dixie Normous, as well as a laundry list of sips that won't make your grandma blush. Not sure what to order? Belly up to the smooth sea-green bar and ask for a recommendation. The obliging barkeep might even treat you to an off-menu drink like the Basil Smash: grapefruit vodka, lemon, simple syrup and muddled basil.

Despite the "redevelopment" efforts of a redoubtable few, and such vile blots upon the realm as the St. Louis Bread Co. (Need a sandwich? For God's sake, cross the street to MoKaBe's!), South Grand is still a lovable mutt of a neighborhood.... More »
The classic martini can be an intimidating drink: no frills, challenging stemware, packs a boozy wallop. Rather than get all hoity-toity about it, Absolutli Goosed aims to educate. "Our talented staff is here assist you in any way they can," the cocktail menu says sweetly, before laying out in four simple steps the proper way to order as smooth as 007. That said, for seasoned martini veterans, this is a damn fine drink. Mixed up lightning fast (none of that lazy bartender eye-rolling), ice... More »
Who declared the bloody mary a hangover cure? When did this spicy, sexy cocktail become a sidekick to your greasy potatoes and sunny-side-ups? We're the last to scoff at a little hair o' the dog, but a good bloody mary is a treasure unto itself, something far greater than a vodka-spiked balm for your sorry-ass headache. So don't just drink bloody marys in the morning. Drink them at night! During the afternoon! On holidays, weekends, Mondays! And whatever you do, make certain you drink the... More »
At Absolutli Goosed, one drink becomes three becomes five. Happy hour turns into happy, happy hours; conversations spark between strangers; first-time patrons become regulars in the time it takes to drain a Godiva chocolate martini. The owners and bartenders are lesbians, as are many of the customers, and the whole place -- with its chic low lighting, pin-up-girl coasters and lipstick-red walls -- possesses a fun, sexy vibe. With dozens upon dozens of martinis, a delightful patio and a... More »
