Not the best speakeasy I've ever been too. Not too hard to find, which I always appreciate with a speakeasy. However, the service was a bit slow and the atmosphere was just ok. Not very warm and inviting. I felt like the attached restaurant just had a storage room that they randomly decided to put curtains around and turn into a bar. The drinks were good, though and the bartender was very nice. But I would not go back.
I planned ahead and made a reservation in advance on 12/3 for Thursday 12/18 at 745pm for 3 people at The Viridian Room. We specifically made this reservation through their Instagram/Resy. My two friends and I show up, and not only is the Viridian Room closed, but so is French Toast, despite their hours stating the close at 9pm. I tried calling to no avail, and ended up going to another Clawson bar, Local, instead. We were so excited to try this place and extremely disappointed...
We stopped in to catch the vibe after dinner (our reservations were too late for a full meal). We had drinks and beignet for dessert. Everyone we encountered was so nice, and it’s such a cute hideaway—cleverly decorated for the season, with cocktails to match.
The only thing that pulled us out of the experience was the music. We’d expected something more in line with a traditional speakeasy vibe—low-key ambiance with jazz, swing, or even some cozy holiday...
