Atmosphere is amazing. Service RUDE. I cannot believe they treat their customers like this. We were kicked out of our table after an hour of sitting and ordering drinks. The hostess was beyond rude. Not going back due to the service.

Very dark! Many people using their phones to read the menu. Low ceiling and no windows - subway car vibes. My sister and I arrived on time for our rez and sat for 25 minutes at our table before receiving our drinks (we got our chicken satay before our wine). We preferred Kamper's.

I had a great after-dinner evening at Evening Bar!
The atmosphere is very stylish yet relaxed, with great music and a welcoming staff.
The cocktails were top-notch and well crafted, and the service was attentive without feeling rushed. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to stay for “just one more.”
A perfect spot for a classy but comfortable night out in the city.

It was lovely - dark with comfy chairs & cocktails.

But I went back with 30 minutes til close on a Saturday night, and it was locked up. And there's no phone number to call inside, just an AI saying to email 😔 I had left something important!

Evening Bar serves delicious and interesting cocktails. I enjoyed the smoke and passion cocktail, made with mezcal and passionfruit. I would skip the spicy tuna crispy rice, as the tuna didn’t taste very fresh and had quite a fishy odor and taste.

For a while, I have avoided writing a complaint
as I had already opted not to patronize this establishment, but the experience still sits uneasy with me. I had an experience with that left me and my colleague feeling uncomfortable and unwelcome. We were walking downtown (my colleague is not from here). As we were walking, we came across this place, which neither of us knew anything about. In being unaware of what it was, I approached the front door to ask. A woman at the door kindly and excitedly informed us that it was a speakeasy and offered to show us around. We agreed, and instead of being shown around, we were promptly seated at a table by the woman from door. Naturally, we sat down and began casual conversation. After some time, a waitress approached us for our orders. We each ordered a water, as we had just finished dining at another restaurant and were not intending to stay long, we just stopped in out of curiosity. Shortly after placing our water orders, I noticed that the waitress was speaking with other staff members while glancing at our table after she had walked away. About 5–10 minutes later, a manager, who identified herself as such, approached us and informed us that guests are not permitted to sit at tables unless they are ordering (more than water). While I understand and respect that policies exist, I questioned why this was escalated to a manager instead of being communicated to us directly by the waitress, especially since we were invited to sit down and would have left on our own without essentially being ushered out. I specifically asked if there was a reason the waitress did not informs us of the policy and the manner simply reiterated that it was policy, but we could sit in another area. I declined and chose to exit, instead. The encounter felt unnecessarily escalated and left us both with the impression that we were being watched and scrutinized in a manner that felt disproportionate to our dispositions and conduct. Although it’s possible that this was not racially motivated, I cannot ignore how uncomfortable it felt as a Black woman, especially given that my colleague was also a Black man. We were treated as though we had done something wrong for simply accepting an invitation to enter, sit, and order water. Respectfully, I ask that you monitor the way in which such policies are enforced. We were open to leaving had someone simply explained the policy upfront. Instead, we were observed, then confronted in a way that felt discriminatory and easily avoidable. Clear, consistent, and respectful communication goes a long way and so does the ability to make all patrons feel welcome, regardless of how much they spend or the perception of the patrons. Simply, do better.

Beautiful carefully curated space. Elevated cocktails. But they do not stuff their own olives. Olives were larger than the martini glass taking up what little space was there for the vodka martini.

Great cocktails made well by the bartender who happily gave us other recommendations on where to stop later on.
