My husband and I visited over the December holidays and the staff were so great about managing a crowd, making great drink recommendations and dealing with husband's allergies.

They don't/didn't used to take reservations, but I emailed and asked about bringing in 10 friends for my birthday and they conveniently had just arranged the space so that a side room was a good fit for us.

Despite being busy on a Friday night, they took great care of our group (who arrived at slightly different times thanks to traffic and parking). Sometimes being in a side room means you're forgotten about during a rush, but we were checked on regularly and many of my friends commented on the great service during and after our meal.

The small plate menu was a good fit for sharing (although might not be hearty enough for very hungry people) and I liked that everyone got to try things.

The wide variety of drinks (including non alcoholic options) meant that everyone got something they loved.

Thanks to Catelyn (spelling?) and Chris for supporting our big group on a special occasion! We'll all be back!

I really wasnt sure what I was walking into before coming here. But the drinks are amazing and the food options are too. It was a great date spot. Great place for a cocktail or beer too. Would definitely gate keep it though because the interior is on the small side! Downtown Edmonds hidden gem.

Incredible staff, wonderful service, and the drinks were amazing. I've been here twice in the last year and it's always the best experience! If I lived closer, I would be here every week! ❤️❤️❤️

upscale and cozy. It feels sophisticated without being stuffy—dark wood, soft lighting, ambient music, and an intimate bar layout make it ideal for both dates and solo unwinding. Locals say it feels like a secret gem, even though it’s often packed.

We just ate here for the first time tonight and are now kicking ourselves for waiting so long to visit. It was nearly full on a Friday evening and we got a small table just inside. Bartenders were jumping but got out first round out pretty quickly.

The only negative thing I'll say about tonight was the lack of the lemon peel and orange peel in the first round of drinks. When you're charging $15-$16/drink I don't think being busy is a reason to forget that touch on the cocktails. But my wife did say it was the best negroni she's had since we were in France in 2022. So a minor oversight.

Food was delicious! We shared the ceviche, tuna and prosciutto wrapped dates. All of it was excellent! The jam with the wrapped figs was amazing! A perfect sweet hit after the salty prosciutto. And the seasoning and liche de tigre with the ceviche was spot on. Tuna was perfectly seared with a seasoned, crusty costing. A little bit of heat was just the right finishing touch.

The deck had cleared out a bit after our first round and bites so we moved to the stools outside for round 2 and dessert and to watch the people cruise by. Second round of drinks came with the lemon and orange twists. Woot! We shared the s'mores cheesecake. My wife thought she didn't want any. Ha! She ate about a third of it.

Overall staff was super friendly. Kudos to Sara (sp?) for checking in on us and chatting to us about the restaurant. We let her know how good the drinks and food were so she could pass on the compliments.

This was not a budget meal by any stretch. Three plates, four drinks and one dessert came to $144 before the tip. But we've already decided we're going back again for our next date night because it was worth every penny!

What an absolute treat to enjoy cocktails at the bar with Sara (& the Saturday night crew). Thank you so much for exposing us to malort (lol), sharing in our joy, and shimmying to Pitbull radio. PROST!

I love the Trinidad Sour

Love the whole vibe of this place. Cocktails are beautiful and delicious. Folks who work there are friendly and fun. And they have an outdoor, heated deck for patrons with dogs! It is the perfect place to relax after a long week.

Haven't gone enough to determine if it's consistently good but I was right next to the greeter & seemed very welcoming. Good service for small staff. The pork skewer was amazing & the apricot sour was great.
