Really good drinks! Get on the list early. We came in at 10p on a Saturday night and didn't get into the bar until 12:15a. We stayed until closing. The drinks were delicious and we had a great time

Absolutely absolutely a gem. I selfishly wish fewer people knew this place so I could spend less time waiting to get in lol... The drinks are amazing. The atmosphere is excellent. The speakeasy-style makes it very cozy and good for chatting with friends and having a nice time. This is definitely going to be my go-to place.

The speakeasy had a nice aesthetic, but the service left much to be desired. The hostess at the front door was unwelcoming and inconsistent, enforcing unclear rules that seemed to vary depending on appearances. Despite the website stating reservations aren’t accepted and it operates on a walk-in basis, she insisted the venue was “reservations only,” even though the space was not full. Her attitude was dismissive and unprofessional, setting a negative tone for the evening.
While the bartender was friendly, the wait for drinks was unreasonably long, which only added to the frustration. Ultimately, my group of six decided to leave, as the experience felt cold and uninviting from the start.
If you’re looking for a welcoming and enjoyable night out, I wouldn’t recommend this spot. The lack of consistency and poor service at the door overshadowed any potential the place might have had.
P.S. To make matters worse, the bathrooms were un kept, un clean , needed to be serviced and the decor was outdated!

Another one of my favorite bars. I vaguely remember the entrance being in a not-so-cute alley but it wasn't a huge deal. They don't take reservations so you should plan to get there early to put your name on the waitlist. I've gotten estimates of 2+ hours before, so sometimes we grab dinner while waiting. I don't think I've ever needed to wait the full two hours, though. People probably drop out. Food is more like snacks so eat before you come unless you can fill up on popcorn. They have this great drink that is sort of like a tiki drink? It is served with a lit cinnamon stick and a bunch of sprigs of mint/some leafy shrubby herb.
We go to speakeasy's in every city we visit and this one is definitely top 5. The ambiance is great with artwork and candles etc. The drinks were fantastic and they have something for every palette. You can also do the bartender choice where they ask you three questions and make you a drink based on that. Great experience overall but don't expect the speakeasy quiet vibe as it can get loud depending on the people there. Use the back entrance instead of going through front like some reviews show. It's more legit of course!

Wow, this place was a great hidden gem. The atmosphere alone is one of the best and the intimate setting was perfect for a nice drink with the one you love. The customer service was great as well as the awesome drink menu they have. We will definitely visit this place again
