Citrus Happy Hour 

Set on Lake Union, Citrus is an ambitious and trendy new establishment bathed in pink and blue lights—imagine a more spacious version of an Virgin America jet, plus more booze. The happy hour (Monday-Friday, plus all day Sunday) draws a crowd of attractive 20- and 30-something professionals from nearby offices wanting to indulge in fancy cocktail specials ($5), like the lychee martinis, and savory appetizers ($5-$6). From the latter, we recommend the Dungeness crab cakes and Kobe beef sliders. The most popular drink selection is the Sourpatch Kid—a raspberry vodka, lime juice, and sour slush concoction served in a sugar-rimmed glass. It tastes exactly like its candy namesake, but with far more potent effects. You’re sure to order a second, perhaps even a third. And at that point, you might as well stay beyond happy hour and enjoy the DJ's Top-40-fueled record selection, which provides for a fun, tipsy night of dancing. 21 and over. ERIKA HOBART
