We went to the speakeasy for the first time last night. We tried to get in during the holidays, but it was just so booked up. We have eaten at the plow Angel, many times but had never been to the new speakeasy. It is so cool. It's got a super awesome vibe. The food is amazing. It is a casual menu with specials on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday nights. Our service was excellent. Will the bartender is so charming and our server May (spelling?) was adorable. It was a very slow night for them and we had the best booth in the house. The piano player was amazing. Played a variety of songs. Because it wasn't busy, It seemed very quiet in there, but I don't know how it is when it's full. We loved the thousands of hearts hanging from the ceiling. We will hundred percent be going back soon.

Food was quality and flavorful. The “Surprise Me” drinks were fun and good. I do love the wide selection of quality spirits. Will definitely come back.

A charming intimate boite serving excellent cocktails and small bites. The grilled artichoke was perfect. The spiced old fashioned was perfect. Service was excellent and those candied peanuts they bring are addictive. An easy and delicious way to enjoy a piece of this legendary property

The service was absolutely perfect, the cocktails were delicious and the food was amazing. The atmosphere was by far the best! We will be back soon

Great cocktails and good service. Had dinner before we arrived but the food comes from the restaurant above and the cookies we had were very good.

The Ranch is a gorgeous property, especially during the holidays. The speakeasy is a fun experience, classy, good food, good cocktails, kind service.

We had a party of 7 and were seated in a four person booth. And then charged extra for a large group after half of our group left because we couldn't fit in the booth.

Beautifully decorated for the holidays. Cute drink menu. We didn't order food but what we saw come out looked good! They give you complementary peanuts which were delicious. There were several unoccupied tables but service was pretty slow. Once we were finally able to order our drinks, it took almost a half hour to get them. Since it's a timed reservation, we didn't have enough time to get a second round (we were a little late due to traffic so our time was cut short). We were also talked into ordering a bottle of stilled water as opposed to regular still water. The bottle of water was over $20 dollars, just $6 less than our drinks. We should have asked about the cost when it was encouraged that we get that, but we didn't. Overall, cute vibe and we'd like to try it again sometime.

Ambiance, food & drinks 10/10. Just be prepared to wait, service is slow to get your first drink.

We went for our wedding anniversary celebration and it was perfect! Great food, fun drinks, live music (on a Monday!) and great service. Romantic setting- it exceeded our expectations!

The speakeasy had an incredible vibe! Low-key, stylish yet sophisticated casual. Live music, but just the right collection and vibe. Server Sophia was the best! Could not have been nicer more comedy and full of energy. So impressed with the bartender, he personally wrote out a recipe For one of the drinks that we enjoyed. Highly recommend I'll definitely be back as soon as we can get there. !

Wow, this place needs to be on your list for a special occasion. The garden before sitting down in the speakeasy was so beautiful and provided great photo opportunities. My husband and I had the best seats in the speakeasy for our anniversary, right in front of the jazz band. That atmosphere was sexy but sophisticated. The drinks were presented beautifully, and the small bites were so well crafted that you could taste every single layer of flavoring. 10 out of 10!

Dark & Moody with a limited but excellent food menu. Cocktails around $28. Hoped to order dessert from restaurant upstairs, but that's not allowed. The service is warm and professional.
