Alex is an amazing mixologist! He makes the best Old Fashions and Espresso martinis on the planet! Okay, in Houston, TX at least! We loved our experience!

Chanel was great and helpful with our table. We came after my Birthday dinner with a large group which made it very welcoming. All services/bartenders are amazing, quick, friendly!

My friends always patron this place. I finally went for a good friend's birthday. We had a great time! The drinks were reasonably priced and excellent. The staff was very professional and attentive. Special thanks to Wilson. Mia was our waitress and she did an amazing job serving our large party.

This is one of the top tier whiskey bars I've visited in my travels around the world. They are focused on all the right things, quality products, comfortable and classic setting, and great service.
The option to sit outside and have a cigar with your whiskey or to sit inside to avoid the smoke is an added bonus.

Permission has amazing energy & excellent service. Creative cocktails as well as the classics and extensive selection of whisky and bourbon. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and detail oriented. The space is beautiful, music is great, and the charcuterie boards are killer. It's perfect for any night out!

Came here for a few drinks before our dinner date night. The atmosphere was cozy with dimmed lights. Drinks were tasty and they have a great happy hour menu. Will be back!

Unbelievably fast drink service! Even though the place was packed , we got our drinks and under 3 minutes. The prices for super premium bourbons and whiskeys. Their selection is amazing

It was a great atmosphere, but the service was extremely slow... need to work on customer service.

Had a post wedding event planned here for 11/15/25. We were supposed to have a reserved section. I had been in contact with Peter Nolan extensively before the event. We were supposed to have a reserved section for 60-65 guests. Upon arrival, quite a few of our guests left due to no room. It was packed. No reserved section. A lot of our guests wanted Louis XIII service as they were from Louisville, KY. The bar lost out on a lot of business due to their poor planning. We were frankly embarrassed that we hyped this place up so much for our out of town guests. I hope going forward their management steps up and takes responsibility for their poor actions. There were even plenty of tables marked as reserved that other people took. We arrived exactly on time. This was a huge disappointment for us and quite frankly the lowest point of the wedding. It’s a shame because this is otherwise a great cocktail bar. Just be VERY aware before planning an event here.
The crazy thing is Matt spoke to my husband the night of the event where my husband fully disclosed our disappointment at the situation and Peter himself was even there and nothing was done to address the issue at the time of the event.
This review will be amended should the owning partners step up and make amends for the disaster they caused.

The ambience was wonderful for a Thursday evening. Love the dark warm vibe the place brings with a nice selection of to be had. I will definitely make a trip back one day!

Good drinks, staff friendly. Small inside. Very lively space. Has a speakeasy but for members only. A good spot to visit after a night out.
