As someone who usually orders a tequila soda or mojito at the bar, I actually could not decide which drink to try here! I came with my girl friend on a Sunday afternoon and was pleasantly surprised. I got the Thai tea drink, and while it did not really taste like Thai tea, it was still VERY well-balanced. The whole menu was super fun and the bartender was very patient in helpful in recommending drinks.

The interior is super cute and there's plenty of outdoor...

Test pilot is a rum bar with some modern twists on tiki drinks, we stopped in on the way to LA from San Francisco and tried their signature cocktail which was crafted with care and delicious with a flavour profile worthy of exploring, the aniseed foam on the Test Pilot really made the drink that bit extra.

Thanks for hosting us.

Cool bar with excellent tropical drinks. We had the Montenegro a pineapple full of rum and fruit juices, it's for 2 people. We also had the purple potato Pina Colada and the Hotel Nacional. Great area, more local than State street.
