didn't have food but the review made me pick a star. Very nice, fun waitstaff and bartender - very accomodating when we had to change our reservation time. Creative and fun menu with nice set up upon entry, great effort to get you talking. Great ambiance, fun entrance to get in. Only reason not 5 stars is that it's expensive, and the drinks were strong, which is good for the $, but my blended drink was way too sweet (when I asked, is it sweet, and was told no) and I couldn't finish either drink due to being strong. Would be 5 stars if not a minimum: was a pricey 90 minutes. I would go back with friends for the vibe, but due to the price maybe not.

This was such a fun addition to our night! I would highly recommend! The ambience and drinks were so good and the cards were an awesome touch for laughs and conversation!!!! Thank you!

Came as a party of 6. Nice ambiance, drinks were strong, but nothing exciting. We waited pretty long for service followed by another long wait for our drinks and food to come. There were quite a lot of empty seats so we didn't understand the reason for the slow service. By the time we were done with our drinks/food, we were ready to leave but couldn't because there was a 2 drink minimum so we ordered another round of drinks which we didn't really want. The 2 drink minimum was annoying, esp since we wanted to do a bar/speakeasy crawl. I don't see us coming back mainly because of that.

Staff is terrific. The ambience is well designed and executed. The music is very appropriate for a speakeasy. Our party had a great time and will be back with other guests
Danielle
Great experience. The bartender and the waitress were amazing and speedy with our order. It gives the perfect speakeasy ambience.
Rachelle
The whole experience was so unforgettable! The drinks, the vibe and the bartenders were so great. We can't wait to come back next time!

Perfect date night, amazing cocktails ! Ambiance 20/10 We didn't try any of the bites offered but they had a nice selection ! A true hidden gem

charged me $40 for canceling a reservation even after I called ahead and they told me they wouldn’t charge me. Horrible customer service, would not go here
Nate
Had a reservation but arrived and it was closed. There was no notice that their hours changed and we would not be able to keep our reservation. Poor service

Absolutely one of the best bars I've ever been to—anywhere in the world. The "classics" are perfectly-executed and the Room 56 originals are just incredible. Can't wait to go back!
Trying to go to all the speakeasies in San Diego. I love the vibe of this one! Drinks are interesting. Not fond of the automatic gratuity. Otherwise great experience.
Briana
The overall experience was great and drinks are amazing. The conversation starter cards on the table were a great touch
Cynthia
Loved the process in getting into this speakeasy-cute but uncomplicated. Henry was very friendly and knowledgeable. Going forward I'll stick to the stirred drinks vs shaken; more complex and direct options.

My bf and I love this speakeasy! It's always a good time and the drinks are delicious! We didn't get any food here as we ate dinner prior to coming for cocktails. Definitely recommend you try this place if you're looking for a good drink or date night!

Our favorite place in San Diego to have a quiet , extremely well-made drink or two! Highly recommend.
