Wunderbar is a unique restaurant with a hidden speakeasy-style bar located in the back of a hot dog restaurant. Reservations are required in advance due to its popularity and limited space. The bar offers a full range of beverages and complimentary popcorn. It is an ideal place for a quiet evening with a couple or friends.
The speakeasy has an immaculate atmosphere with a witchy/astrological theme, offering classic cocktails and innovative twists. The "Lost at Sea" pandan cocktail and the Old Fashioned are popular choices. The bartenders are friendly and knowledgeable, providing excellent service.
Drinks are the highlight of Wunderbar, with unique and complex options that showcase flavor nuances. Some of the popular choices include the Sidewinder's Fang, Shapeshifter, Frog Prince, and Lost at Sea. The bar also offers seasonal drinks with different components such as passion fruit, basil eau de vie, yuzu, mezcal, and green tea.
Overall, Wunderbar is a charming and cozy speakeasy with a lively and dim atmosphere. The vintage-looking popcorn maker adds to the unique decor. The knowledgeable and friendly staff and fantastic drinks make Wunderbar a hidden gem and a highly recommended experience.
