Drinks are great. The kitchen closes early 7pm. Small inside but nice vibe.

This place looks nothing like you think it would, the outside is very deceitful. The ambiance was so chill and the details from the gold metal straws, the wallpaper, ceiling, and the velvet green and gold trim chairs were so beautiful and classy. It was my 1st time and I will return. Certain drinks are pricy though, but tasted great!

We sat at the bar and saw with our own eyes TWO small cockroaches crawling around the bar top within an arms length of me. First roach was killed then 20 minutes later another.
I told the bar tender and he said he already knows of the problem. If two were visible to us then I can imagine the rest of the place behind the bar and back rooms.

Cant comment on the food served here we had just eaten at Loro. Beautiful bar n nice friendly bartender. There was like no one here on a friday night at 9 pm. July 11th 2025 Only 3 other tables the hour n half we were there. We understand why... your drink prices are too much. So much that you lose a star.

Nice, chill spot to enjoy delish cocktails. I haven't tried the food yet, but I plan to get to that. I wish there could be more seats at the bar. During peak hours, it gets busy...there is other seating/tables, you just gotta go to the bar to order. Will definitely put this one in our rotation...

We came here for pre-dinner drinks, and ended up enjoying the food here too. My wife and I had a great experience here - very nice service (though, they can get busy), great cocktails, and interesting food options. The house cocktails are good and pretty inventive (at the end of the Christmas season, we went to try their ponche crema). And the food - where else can you get raw oysters, dumplings, and Venezuelan cachapas and tequenos? There's a little bit for everyone, and you can't go wrong.

FINALLY a place to find REAL Caribbean flavors. Such a gem, tucked away off 11th. Drinks EXCELLENT. I'm a picky drinker. I dont live here, so i tried as many spots in a 5 mile radius as i could. This place got me.

Came here the first time and I could not find it, had to drive around once. Parking can be difficult during peak hours. The place was cozy and cute. The bartender was friendly and helpful. Prompt service and attentive. We sat outside and it was great!. We came at an off-peak hours and it was relaxing. The drink prices were very reasonable. Appetizers were delicious and reasonably priced. I really liked this place, good first impression for a cozy bar.
We loved this place. Great drinks, with superb presentation. Friendly waiter, Great food. Perfect for a nice summer cocktail.
This is a very fun place with delicious food and wonderful cocktails.

Cute little corner cocktail bar!! Met up with a friend on Saturday night for some drinks!! cocktails were amazing I got the Asian pear Martini and my friend got the hot and crazy! And the drinks were amazing. We came at a time when everyone was siting at the bar and we were the only ones at a table. Food and service was fast
Best vibes 🫶🏼 best food & best craft cocktails in town 🫶🏼 I love that you do get to know the owners 🫶🏼 OBSESSED
I went to IKTO on Friday with some friends and had the best time. We sat at the bar and had a couple of drinks. Carla was our bartender and she was so sweet and attentive. Despite the bar being busy, she made sure to take care of us and communicated well with us. She made a great espresso martini! I would definitely recommend coming to IKTO and ask for Carla! :)
Lowkey didn't even go inside. Waited in the parking lot while a friend went in and just kinda parking lot pimped. They called last call like 15m before closing and then still didn't even wanna take any orders
I like the interior. Lots of people talked about this place, but unfortunately I found their drinks to be quite mid. Their mixed shot we ordered tasted like rubbing alcohol, the espresso martini used really cheap folgers-like burnt coffee taste. Not sure if I'd return based on their drinks.
