The best way to capture a wild, rampaging meal is to hook it with a gigantic pasta lasso. Test your throwin' arm with today's deal. For $15, you get $35 worth of fine Italian cuisine and drinks at Sax Restaurant & Lounge. Though this deal is not valid with other offers or promotions, it is valid toward any of the daily happy-hour specials.

To properly pair one of Sax's specialty cocktails with an entree, simply read the personified cocktail name, then apply logic. For instance, a Miles Davis—Godiva chocolate liqueur, Stoli Razberi, Chambord, and a splash of cream ($8)—would likely fill his trumpet-blowing cheeks with a hearty 10-ounce flatiron steak served aside white-truffle mashed potatoes and veggies ($18). And a Bossa Nova—mixed with 10 different cane rums, limes, simple syrup, and soda ($8)—wouldn't be able to pick a plate because Bossa Nova is a music style, not an autonomous music-legend cocktail. Other entrees include seafood risotto ($18), pasta primavera ($14), and 14-ounce lamb chops served over Mediterranean couscous ($22).

Swing into Sax between 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. or after 10 p.m. to take advantage of the small-bite happy-hour specials. Both early-dinner birds and late-night owls can prey upon evening snacks such as quesadillas ($6), coconut prawns ($5), or calamari with spicy aioli ($6). Those who arrive during the 4 p.m. slot can sip on discounted drink delicacies like the Louis Armstrong martini—vodka, apple schnapps, butterscotch schnapps, and cranberry juice ($4)—or a tall fermented friend from the $3 beer selections of Stella Artois, Blue Moon, and more.

Without a properly tuned piano, lounging is simply lazy. Wine and dine throughout the week in the acoustic atmosphere of Sax's rotating calendar of events, which includes live jazz or blues. On Mondays, music performance takes a backseat to artfully played Playstation 3 games projected on a 100-inch HD projector for college night. No matter when you come into Sax, you will be treated to a warm staff, a cold brew, and a room temperature that is comfortable to all.
