You can make a night of Three Muses, sidled up to the bar, swinging your hips on the dance floor, or tucking into a plate of pork belly—we’d recommend all three. The trio of muses that shape the space are Chef Daniel Esses, Mixologist Daniel Starnes, and Impresario Sophie Lee, who came together to open up their dream of a restaurant and jazz club on Frenchman. Esses’ small plates are much better than any bar food needs to be, executed with care and packed with flavor at every possible step, and Starnes’ cocktails keep the beat with refreshing libations, perfect for throwing back. On Frenchman, though, music reigns. And Lee, a vocalist herself, books serious jazz talent to lure passers-by into the restaurant. It’s a welcome trap. Stay awhile and find yourself inspired by Three Muses.
