I’ve been here 3 times and the time I sat at the bar was easily the best. The bartender really knew what he was doing and both my friend and I got drinks that matched what we were looking for. But both times I’ve had my order taken at the booth the waiters haven’t been able to quite figure it out. Also a little pricey for Philly

Awesome speakeasy style bar. Small (15ish tables plus bar space) and doesnt take reservations. Got lucky that there was a table open when we walked in as it was the last one. Booth was comfty, mood lighting was romantic, music was a bit odd for the setting (latin-ish vibes) but not distracting. Drinks were great, had the bartenders choice which resulted in a good interesting drink. Lots of liquor options too and snacking food looked solid.

Went in on a slow Tuesday and could not be more impressed. Bartender/mixologist Matt crafted some great cocktails. Great vibe and ambiance.

He was promoting I wouldn’t say my worst enemy here. Complete fail.

The staff were so friendly and able to accommodate my group of 6 on a Saturday night. The drinks were great and the ambiance of the place was so so cool. Will totally come back!

Cute space, perfect for date night. Drinks were good and service was great! Easier to get in earlier v. late night. This is the 4th time we tried to get in and finally succeeded.

I love the ambiance here... dim lighting, candlelit tables, and that speakeasy vibe that makes you feel like you’ve stepped back in time. If I hadn’t known the door led to the bar, I would have walked right past it.

The cocktails are fantastic. While there’s no real food menu, they do offer a few small bites like olives and popcorn to snack on.

This spot is perfect for a romantic date night or an intimate evening with friends. Definitely better suited for smaller groups.

Such a cool spot to enjoy some amazing cocktails in such a cozy atmosphere. The menu is simple but diverse, but what I thought is really cool is the last option is tell the bartender what you like and he will create you a drink which my fiancé did. Our bartender Sam hit it out of the park with her likes, and I ordered the La Intensa which could have been one of the best cocktails I’ve ever had it was beyond delicious. I will be returning for that drink, Sam’s experience, and an awesome atmosphere

my wife and I were extremely impressed with Sam‘s bartending skills. He improvised a berry mint julep which was out of this world. And made a traditional gin fizz that made the night for us. Serious talent here!

Rude staff. They say they close at 2am on Google so we showed up at 12:54 on our honeymoon and have never been treated so poorly by a staff. Many tables were open and staff as so rude and showed no compassion when we said we simply wanted 1 drink because they were apparently open for another hour according to Google. Either get a better staff that shows compassion and customer service or get with the times and update your online presence. This was unacceptable and I can’t believe we were recommended this place.

Terrible experience, rudest staff. We came here from so far for our honeymoon and were turned down because they were “closed” despite what their hours show on Google and the staff was rude and said they didn’t care and had no control over what their Google hours show despite many tables being open and us showing up over an hour left before they closed. I would never recommend this experience to anyone looking for a nice night out. Disgusted.
