“Speakeasy vibe cocktail bar creating exceptional hand-crafted cocktails. Every drink was delicious.

Spent about 4 hours here with friends on a Saturday evening playing games.

Space is comfortable and the seating is excellent. Sound level is quiet but can get very noisy during busier times.

I’ve added this place to my Columbia favorites.“

“Chanced to eat here as a pleasant day and they had outside seating. Their caldo pollo (chicken soup) was excellent. Caldo Pollo is a sentinel dish. If a place has good caldo pollo, carnitas, and tamale it's pretty certain everything else will be good. Also had a very good torta cubano. The extra spicy salsa (you have to request) was superb. Love the staff.“

“If there’s once place in Columbus that bourbon aficionados need to go it is here. Jeff was amazing, he’s knowledgeable and friendly. Take my unsolicited wisdom with a grain of salt, I am from northern British Columbia where bar tenders/owners that personally love bourbon are not a common commodity.“

“I LOVED their chips and salsa. Salsa had the perfect amount of spice! I tried their steak nachos and it was absolutely delicious! It was considered an appetizer but it is plenty of food for one person if you wanted it as an entree. I’m excited to come back in the future and try their other options! The inside has great vibes and our waiter also took such great care of us!“
