There is a bartender by the name of Crystal who absolutely steps up to the call when it comes to service and craft drinks. She is very attentive, friendly and funny! Always a pleasure, even when it’s busy!

Just moved to the area and was some exploring downtown spots. I LOVE this place, will definitely be back! Vanessa was so much fun, great company for my solo little booze crawl and made me the best drink! I asked for a lemon drop, but the Disco Lemonade is their signature spin on the classic and I couldn't have been be happier.

This is such a cool spot to go to. Big city club vibes in your local downtown. I love the ambiance and vibe there. But what really makes this place pop is CRYSTAL, she’s a star! Always friendly and attentive to customers and makes beautiful cocktails too! Such a fun holiday list of drinks as well! Good for girls night or after work party!

I’m offended and embarrassed for the bartender working last night between 3-5 pm He was so unbelievably rude to my friend from the second she walked through the door. We walked into the empty bar, sat down and while we looked at the drink menu, my friend orders a shot of tequila. He asked how she wanted it, to which she replied with salt. I suggested chilled? He said “so you want a margarita?” We moved on, ordered a cocktail, my friend took his recommendation on the drink to order. Her phone rang, she was apologizing to me for taking a work call and was very brief and quiet The bartender interrupted with “take the call outside” Once the drinks were finished I noticed the drink he made for my friend was half full. Still wondering if his behavior towards my friend was personal and why he was so rude to his only 2 customers. The gentleman behind the bar did not get tipped and we did not enjoy ourselves.

I’m looking for a holiday bar to have drinks with for my birthday and I just wanna know what kind of music does this place play?

Totally worth the extra drive to come from Fremont. Every time I’ve came there has been a nice crowd and a great experience. Crystal was on point all night and made our group actually feel like VIP’s. She had us cracking up half the time!! Great vibes, great music, and tons of laughs!! Definitely will be a regular spot!

I was reluctant to post about my favorite bar in the East Bay because I didn't want everyone finding out about this gem. It's become my staple when I can sneak out for a high-quality drink.

I came here for a interview yesterday note that I am a transgender female when I arrived the girl at the front that greeted me as I she can help me I said yes, my name is Nicole I am here for a interview. I waited for 5 minutes and she came back out and said sorry but, the owner already hired someone. WOW! I spent $63 on my lyft ride to get here. When I went outside I ordered another lyft and while I was waiting I overed some guy on the side of the building talking on the phone saying something bout he doesn't hire clowns, transgender women or any other mental health issues to be a bartender saying something bout they have this image they have to keep. Then he goes on saying something about voting for Trump then walks in the same place where I suppose to have my interview.

Is the owner here completely oblivious, absentee or don't give a f___? I don't know how this place stays in business. I've been here enough to see that the tempermental pouty face bartendars SUCK! IF they're not too busy flirting it's constant chit chat with each other completely ignoring the patrons. Very lazy and very unprofessional....it's been this way over the last several years. What are we still in COVID? What a joke...never again and personally I'm going on a campaign to let everyone and anyone know how bad this place is. It's too bad as a business owner and investor I can see the place has a good ambience but you're only as good as your people. I wonder if the owners/investors are aware. Try Danville or Walnut Creek. Better vibe more enthusiasm for your dollar!

Was told immediately upon entering that they don't even allow service dogs inside anywhere.
They only carry light beer for domestic and only carry premium that's not light and their prices are sky high just well shots are $10.00. Not a place to hang out if you're in a budget for sure the karaoke was decent but they use only Karafun which is a lazy and cheap way to run a show. Song selections and versions are very limited and many versions suck. If they matched their karaoke with their high end prices they'd have a decent hard drive with all the good versions and only use Karafun as a supplement for when they don't have a certain song.
They also tell you drinks are a certain price but then charge sales taxes on top of the price they gave you as opposed to most bars that include the taxes in the price.
