We had a great bartender. Super nice and made our visit even more special with an awesome mother daughter shot.

The daily Happy Hour from 5-7 pm is a good value. My husband got the South Side, and I got the Flapper. The south side was well-balanced and tasted good. The flapper, which has vodka and champagne, was a touch bitter for my taste. We also got a cheese board off the happy hour menu for $10. The cheese board included 3 types of cheese with some standard crackers. Nothing special, but not bad. The music was a short loop, and we heard all the songs multiple times while we were there. Our water glasses were white and red. The red varnish was flaking off the cups. The menus are old school new leaflets, which seemed old and were on their last leg. Since this is my only time visiting, I wasn't sure how much of this was a chosen aesthetic or lack of upkeep.

I always wanted to check out the speak easy bars in DC. This place was just okay. I got the rack of lamb and it was undercooked and bland, and not worth $36. They served sprite and a ton of ice in what seemed to look like 6oz size glass and charged for each refill. I wouldn't recommend.

Had the best time! Everything was incredible. So happy I took a chance and made the reservation for my birthday dinner with Friends. I will definitely be back in. Cant wait to spread the word about it. It is definitely a gem in Adam's Morgan.

What a fun and unique date night. The food was incredible as well as the service. We went early so things were still quite which was also nice.

My friends and I visited on a Friday evening and nothing disappointed us. We were a group of 7 and got a section that everyone was able to enjoy and be comfortable in. Our waiter Emilio was amazing, he was attentive and friendly. The $1 oysters were a hit, briny and a good size. The food was quick to come out and delicious. The drinks took a little longer to come out however were tasty and did the job. The overall experience was great and we all will be back.
Chris
A great stop as always! Each time I am in town I try and make it here. The oysters were fresh and the service was perfect.
Sevgi
Great food and atmosphere. Our server was very attentive and friendly. We had the oysters, beef tenderloin skewers, hummus, and shrimp cocktail. All of them delicious especially the oysters.

Went for the first time to see their Jazz night in celebration of my husband's birthday, and I can safely say we'll be back soon! Vibes were great, dark and cozy, music was fantastic, food was amazing, drinks were perfect, and service was great! My only notes, and maybe this was just ‘cause it was a Wednesday night, but we didn't get to knock and give the code which I was hoping to do since this was a surprise for my husband. Anyway, shout out to the bartender for the killer p0rnstar martinis!
Best Speakeasy in DC hands down! This place offers a great experience from knocking on the door, interacting with friendly staff, eating delicious food, drinking tasty beverages, and basking in the vibrant atmosphere. The vibes were just on point! My co-workers loved the place and the experience too. I'll definitely be back soon!

We made a reservation on Saturday for oyster happy hour during national oyster week, but when we ordered they told us they had already run out of the 100 oysters they had purchased for the day (I think we would have eaten 100 oysters at just our table!) apparently they had run out the previous day as well. The happy hour drinks are great and the service staff is friendly, but this was a total bait and switch and I will be wary of returning again
A truly one-of-a-kind speakeasy! This hidden gem offers an unforgettable experience from the moment you walk in. The ambiance is captivating—moody, stylish, and perfectly curated to transport you to another time. The vibe is effortlessly cool, with just the right balance of sophistication and edge. Whether you’re there for a date night, a celebration, or just a unique night out, this spot delivers an atmosphere and experience you won’t find anywhere else.
