This business embodies amateur work ethic.

At first I had some pause on the slow service, but once I took a sip of that dry vodka martini, made with well liquor mind you, boy did I forget the past. This place got me questioning the origins of all drinks. That drink was so good! ...just so on point. The presentation, the temperature, the mixture, the glass, the skewer, the olive, man I thought I was gonna get dried out by a night cap and I was served a whole new existence. My gaw, yeesh! I told the ol lady where the new spot for the girls night gots to be. Gaw zam.

Liked the space, the vibe and friendly service but the food was pretty underwhelming.

Waited nearly 2 full hours for food that never came. I went here with two friends and we were seated and our drink orders were taken right away. When the drinks arrived, our server said the food would arrive shortly. Another 20 minutes later, the server came out again to check on us and take more drink orders. Even though we had not finished our drinks, the server was pushing us to get a second drink order in which I thought was a little weird. We asked again about our food, and we were assured it would arrive shortly. The whole time, other tables are receiving food that were seated after us. At around the hour-and-a-half mark, we started to express our frustration with the server and he apologized and assured us our food would be out soon. Another half-hour later, we asked about our food for the 4th time, and the server went in again to check in with the kitchen. It was then revealed to us that he had never put in our order. The entire experience was extremely frustrating, and we ended up leaving to get pizza across the street. The server did comp 2 beers, but I felt we really shouldn’t have paid for anything that evening. The drinks were pretty good though🤷‍♂️

Street parking can be challenging at certain times, so take the first spot you see!!

A group of about 15 of us headed to Deadshot after a party just down the block. The indoor seating was packed, but we were able to grab spots outside, which worked out perfectly. The staff was super attentive and kind, making us feel really welcome.

The cocktails here are definitely creative—one standout was a mustard cocktail. Yep, mustard. It sounds strange (and it is!), but if you're into creamy yellow mustard, it’s surprisingly good and worth a try.

Nestled in an area with several stage theaters, you would expect that Deadshot would be welcoming to groups of theater goers and actors who enjoy gathering after a show, rehearsal, or class to eat, drink, celebrate with friends and spend money. That was unfortunately not the case. We tried this spot more than once over a three week period, hoping the first two times were maybe just off nights. Nope, third time was actually the worst. Our two drinks sat on the bar for at least fifteen minutes until one of us went up to get them, server had disappeared with apparently no one covering for them. The drinks are fine, nothing special. The food - several people in our group ordered food, much to the server's disappointment - but it seemed fine. Vegan options are very limited and I was afraid to ask for any substitutions. We were told no less than six times on our first visit that there is a strict limit of 4 credit cards per table. Okay, we don't understand it but we hear you. What is the difference if you take cash from eight people or cards from eight people? I suggest splitting your group up between the bar and a table to accommodate your friends who don't carry cash, or better yet, just don't go there with a group. This place is probably fine to meet one friend for a drink. Note: They add on a 20% service charge.

Wasn't impressed with the food. Drinks were lovely.

Every cocktail is unique and delicious. Goat cheese and cherry somehow combined in a drink perfectly. Some of the best cocktails I've ever tried. I had the pork chops and was blown away. Delicious.

First time I've been here. We met some family friends here on a Tuesday at 4pm (opening time), so can't really vouch for the atmosphere. The servers were excellent, and the folks having cocktails enjoyed them. My Japanese Lager draft beer was delightful as well.

The Happy Hour snacks were very good (the Fried Cauliflower is delicious, the French Fries were nicely seasoned), and the Schnitzel sandwich was large enough to share with my partner. I didn't try the Beef Tartare (too rare for my tastes), but those who did said it was very good.

Overall, a nice place with interesting food and many interesting cocktails. Definitely worth a visit (and repeat visits as opportunity arises...)

I've always enjoyed this place. Great cocktails and a cool spot in general. Staff is amazing. Definitely check this spot out during their Christmas theme too!!
