Stopped in on our trip to a vinyl shop in Rockford but originally from WI. Such a great place with a chill vibe, amazing and unique cocktails as well. This is a place I will go back the first chance I get.

Great spot for an intimate gathering with close friends. They have a sublime craft cocktail menu, great atmosphere, and friendly/attentive service.

Stopped in for a drink while in town on vacation. Had some of the NA cocktails which were great. Always nice to see bars have a non-alcoholic option. Ate some of the small plates. All of the food was amazing. Adam was bartending that night and provided excellent service and recommendations. Our whole experience there was fantastic.

Stopped in for a couple (2) of drinks. The cocktails were fine. The atmosphere was nice enough—clean and modern—but nothing particularly special.

What really rubbed me the wrong way was the automatic 20% service charge for just two drinks. I always tip accordingly based on service, but this isn’t Chicago or New York. Adding a set service fee here feels unnecessary and out of place.

Prices were Chicago-level, but nothing about the experience justified it.

I didn’t try the food, but from what I saw at other tables, it looked appealing and well-presented.

Overall, decent drinks and atmosphere, but the pricing and automatic gratuity policy will likely keep me from rushing back.

Always an absolutely amazing experience. Best Sazerac I’ve had outside of New Orleans and better than any you will find in the French Quarter. Staff is friendly, experienced and down right amazing. Food is insanely flavorful. A one of a kind vibe you either get it….or you don’t.
