Really cool speakeasy. Loved the entrance and decor. The drinks were good, but the bartender was very rude, and it killed the vibe.

The gentlemen were super nice and really attentive to my preferences. It blew my mind the way they combined ingredients to make the cocktails taste exactly how you wanted them to. I had a Tiramisu cocktail for dessert and it was phenomenal!

There’s no menu; you just tell the bartenders what you like and they’ll make it for you. Very good mixes + good prices! Excellent speakeasy and would definitely come again.

We recently visited Young Blood on a weeknight after making reservations, which I highly recommend. The establishment rarely allows walk in’s so it’s definitely better to make plans ahead of time. They offer a three course cocktail culinary experience and their bartenders are no joke. We were served by Alexandra and Zach and both were knowledgeable and extremely talented. Alexandra asked us the types of spirits and tastes we preferred in order to get acquainted and better make recommendations for the experience. TIP: I would recommend requesting to sit at the bar rather than at a table so you can view the mixologist’s talents up close. The last course is dessert related so start thinking of your favorite dessert before you go. There is no parking at the location so I recommend taking a ride share or some other way of getting there.

Really nice cocktail bar experience. Three cocktails is a lot if you're planning to drive afterwards, so it may be worth it to plan to go while you're staying locally or can cab home, but the drinks are exceptional and the bespoke service is really

We've been here once before, and our second visit did not disappoint. The interior design is beautiful, the drinks are some of the best I've had, and the experience of ordering something based off your imagination or what you're feeling in the moment is truly unique. Special thanks to the best bartender ever, Zach, for making the night super special and fun!

What an amazing experience. The bartenders are rock stars. On point with all the drinks. My wife said it's one of the best bars she has been to and is still talking about it ha! Thanks again
First time coming to YB. Very impressed with the cocktails we each had and the attention to detail. $70 for 3 drinks - expensive for sure but to be expected. Beautiful setting too!

Incredible experience, bartenders are super creative and knowledgeable while still being approachable. They listened to exactly what we like and created perfect cocktails to match. The lighting and decor is also really beautiful and feels perfect for a special occasion.

Never written a review... until I had one of the best drinking experiences of my life. Good music, good vibes, beautiful room, incredibly kind bartenders, amazing drinks, comfortable seats, beautiful drinkware, all 10/10. Almost don't want to write an amazing review so it doesn't get too busy because I'll be back.
Anytime I go, I always have a great time! They have never missed with a drink they have made for myself and whoever I am with that night. Hands down, one of my favorite speakeasies.

This was a lovely experience! Our bartender was attentive and carefully curated a course of cocktails that were amazing for our individual tastes and preferences. The music was mellow and perfect for being able to have a conversation. We will definitely be back!
Zach and Kevin were amazing. I come here often and always bring new friends or family and Zach never disappoints. The drinks amazing. Ambiance amazing. Thank you for making our night special and fun. My favorite place to be in San Diego

Such an amazing experience! Worth every penny. We loved having drifts crafted to specifically to our palate. Our bartender Zack was personable and nailed everything based off of our tasting profiles with a few simple questions. Ambiance also amazing, art deco Gatsby inspired bar. Will definitely come back!
