This place is the best!! Great vibes. The music was a little bit too loud. It was hard to have a conversation. We had to yell at the top of our lungs ? However the music selections were great! it took some time for the bartender to get to us. Parking can be a little tight but overall. We had a great time! We can't wait to go back!

Very aggressive profiling at the door. Don't bother going with even a small group of guys — you'll get turned away every time even when it's clearly not busy inside.I'm local and tried to visit this place a half dozen times and *never* have gotten in. This is the only bar in OTR I can say that about.But watch a group of all girls with no reservation come immediately after and suddenly they have space. I wish they were honest and let people in first come, first serve instead of playing these shenanigans.Save yourself the hassle of Nostalgia and just go to Ghost Baby instead just a block or two away.Edit to the response: This is absolutely a review of my multiple experiences at Nostalagia since it opened. I have been reviewing on here for over 10+ years, reviewed hundreds of businesses, and never written a "fake" review in my life... I removed my name from Google Maps due to being harassed by multiple business owners (just like you allude to) when I did not get them a perfect review. Please check the facts before you spread more disinformation...Update: Is this business page run by a 12-year-old kid??? What a wild and unprofessional response from a business... and kinda funny how the anonymous "business owner" (?) has chosen to ad hominem attack a reviewer, instead of any of the claims about how they conduct business... that says everything other guests need to know... Please fix the flaws with your business instead of lashing out at reviewers that point them out to save others the hassle...Avoid this place at all costs.

They don’t sale food. But you can bring in outside food. Drinks were good. Ambience is a vibe!

Nice little place tucked into OTR with a sweet vibe. The wine I had was very enjoyable (much better than what I buy for hole consumption!), and they booked a sweet band. Seating is tight, I think people are encouraged to make reservations in advance?I'd definitely go back. The live was on the loud side, so if you have sensitive hearing, maybe bring some earplugs. But overall it was a very nice venue.Parking: Most OTR parking seems to be by permit for residents. I used the nearby public lot. It has a set price for evening/night hours - $8. That was more than I was expecting to pay to visit a bar/lounge for an hour or so. :/

Bring your own food or eat before coming, drinks are amazing and there is a great vibe.Parking: If they had valet it would be perfect however there is a lot in back that services all business in the strip.
Drinks over priced place nice but very
