I ate at Goodfellas before a show, and noticed this little place hiding in the back! I stopped for a drink, and it one of the best amaretto sours I have ever had! The bartender was attentive to everyone and was so kind. I can’t wait to be back!

🥃 Wiseguy Lounge - Stellar Bartending and Perfect Vibe
We recently stopped in at the Wiseguy Lounge for a few cocktails and were immediately impressed. Located next to Goodfellas, it’s the perfect spot for great drinks in a cool, low-key setting.
🌟 Service Highlight
We met the bartender, Richard, and he was excellent. His skill was immediately apparent, and he made our whole night a success. Richard is truly an outstanding mixologist who clearly takes pride in his work.
🍸 Cocktail Consistency
The quality of both the classics and the signature drinks was perfect:
• My Picks: I started with a Gin Fizz that Richard absolutely knocked out the park. I followed that up with a beautiful French 75 before moving to a perfectly balanced Whiskey Sour to finish.
• Rene's Picks: Rene enjoyed her cocktails immensely, choosing a Marilyn Monroe and the wonderful Sun-kissed Sweetheart.
🍕 Dinner Transition
Since the lounge is connected to Goodfellas, we took advantage of the situation, ordered up a pizza, and called it dinner before heading home. That seamless transition from a high-quality cocktail bar to a casual pizza spot made the entire evening effortless.
💡 Final Thoughts
The Wiseguy Lounge is a fantastic destination. When you find a bartender as skillful and personable as Richard, who can make complex classics shine, you know you’ve found a keeper. We will definitely go back!

Richard is absolutely amazing! The main reason I come and bring my friends is because of his spectacular mixology skills and knowledge!

I've been a loyal customer at this bar for years, but what happened on the evening of 9/4 around 9pm was unlike anything I've experienced before. I sat down, ordered a drink, and then was completely ignored for over 40 minutes by all three bartenders. Meanwhile, both parties seated next to me received multiple refills, beers, and waters.
One bartender even took my empty glass from in front of me and continued cleaning the bar without acknowledging me. Another bartender, the one with gauges, was busy chatting with a customer about how much the owner spends on Buffalo Trace. The bartender with short blonde hair cleaned directly in front of me without asking if I needed anything, yet turned to the two men beside me to check if they wanted more drinks.
It was disappointing and honestly baffling to be overlooked like that, especially after years of supporting this place.
The bartender, Ivy was amazing! Every drink was 10/10!!!

My husband and I have been here many times over 2 years. Went in tonight celebrating our anniversary and the bartender refused to accept my husband official Mexico ID. I wish I got his name but I know he is a manager and he has served us before. We came last week for my birthday with no issue. He then proceeded to tell us that if his ID was accepted before it shouldn’t have been, When he has accepted it himself before. Don’t understand why we had an issue tonight. Was very disappointed in the treatment. My husband is very upset about it. Seems racist. 😕🤷🏼♀️ i’ve really like this place, but this kind of ruined it for me.. hope the owners see this and get clarification. We were told he needed a US issued ID.
