Guide Review - Saucebox

When movies are being filmed in P-town, Saucebox is on the short list of hangouts for cast and crew. Yes, it’s within shouting distance of several major downtown hotels including Hotel Lucia, the Benson, and the Hotel Vintage Plaza. But more importantly, its clean décor—complete with mirrors galore—provides an excellent backdrop for displaying the beautiful people inside. But don’t worry if you’ve never stepped foot on a movie set. Just put on something that makes you feel famous and join the party.
