Walking into The Lost Leaf, I instantly knew I'd be back again!  Live music playing in the back room, great crowd and artsy decor spelled \""Home\"" for me.\nWent with a bunch of other Yelpers (Happy Birthday, Jacqui!) and had a blast.  The music wasn't so loud I couldn't hear anyone I was talking with.  Seemed like an awesome beer selection, though I didn't see what wine was offered.\nI am one of the few who really likes the high-tops.  \nThe clientele was a younger crowd of Phoencians enjoying what the downtown of PHX has to offer.  It was full, but I think I expected a larger crowd on a Saturday night.  \nThe local art on the walls made it seem less pretentious than most places.  And, the wood!  Wood everywhere!  I thought I was back East.  Hardwood floors, beamed ceiling.  I could picture it as a place to go after skiing back home.  \nI thought the kitchen was cute, but a little \""homey\"".  I swear I saw a dishwasher, and not an industrial one!\nOf course, couldn't beat the company!  Jacqui and Dave B, Nathan, Kristin, Stevey P and my favorite boys, Thomas and Ricky made the night A+
