Frequently Asked Questions

A hi-fi listening bar is built around high-fidelity sound, where the music gets as much attention as the food and drinks. At Sonder, that means records, live DJs, and a room made for listening.

The music keeps pace with the meal, low enough for conversation over dinner, then building as the plates clear and live DJs take over the booth. Fridays and Saturdays run late, until 1am.

Seasonal plates meant for sharing, from Executive Chef Nate Overstreet and Ashly Amador. The menu changes with the seasons, and the cocktail list turns over just as often, with every bartender on staff contributing to it, alongside classics and a solid lineup of non-alcoholic drinks. Many dishes can be made vegetarian or gluten-free, so let your server know about any dietary needs.

The kitchen typically serves until 10PM Tuesday through Thursday, 11 PM on weekends, and 9PM on Sunday. Hours may vary for private events or special occasions.
