Farimont's Tonga Room set to close :(
In the conversion to condos....I had one of my very few hard liquor drinks there on my birthday many years go - a Mai Tai that made my mouth numb

Well, the Tongo Room is still around (thanks in part to Tony Bourdain).
Wife and I want to go there for a drink and an appetizer before a late dinner later this month (full dinner menu does not look terribly interesting).
I know they do not take reservations for bar seating, but can one order appetizers from the bar seating area? Or, to put it another way, can one reserve a table and only order drinks and appetizers?
Thanks!
