“Very unique and beautiful atmosphere. The food was absolutely great! All honesty, skip the flan and the plantains. Plantains were good, but it was like 5 pieces. Drinks didn't taste strong with good flavor, but they didn't skip on the alcohol. I absolutely will be back especially for a date night.“

“Super happy to see this delightfully spacious & dark lounge still going strong. I remember seeing the grand opening updates with a cool kind of dark, whimsical, somewhat witchy/goth and "cheeky" aesthetic and thought, "alright, I need to scope it out." Just a few years later... ta da! Inside still holds true. Spacious dark speakeasy with a side of "cool weird(?)". I dig the astrological touch in the bar shelf arc wall elements up top.The menu size seems just right for the kitchen size. A pleasant mix of super wholesome salads and small bite nibbles. Next time, I can try some o' dat. They used to be 100% vegan but added egg white options for drinks. For now, I asked George(?) if she/they could whip me up a nice simple-not-too-frilly mocktail. After a few preferences, I tried my 1st ever 0-proof spirit (Ritual) with a nice refreshing taste mixed in from them. I hit a weird buzz feeling near half-way through so I just stopped; after a few moments I could take a few more sips. Welcoming & cool staff.Tucked away right there in downtown Olympia walking distance to many cool spots in town. Whether you're a curious new mocktail drinker like me (I usually do NA beers) or a seasoned buzz slushie, this unique spot is worth a shot (no pun intended). Pull up at the bar seats and eye the glorious neon bikini butt after dark.“

“I remember this place when it was dillengers. It still has that sweet speak easy feel to it. We ordered wine. It was a short list that covered one of 5 or 6 types (red and white) and they were all great tasting. They made us meatballs even though it wasn't a specific option on the menu. I really appreciated the bartender and his kindness. Tuesday night is the night to be here.“

“I went on a Friday night, so it was very crowded. We arrived a little after 5 o'clock, so we were able to get a table right away, but by the time we left at 6 o'clock, there was a long line of people waiting.The food was very delicious. It was a thick burger so it was a bit difficult to eat.The inside of the restaurant is a little small, so the tables are also small. It had a stylish atmosphere, but it was quite noisy, so it may not be suitable for people who like a quiet atmosphere.“

“Mocktails, entrée, and dessert were phenomenal! Every time I’ve eaten there the food has been 10/10. Service was also excellent. When my salmon salad came out, it had a tiny little piece of salmon, and the server said that they asked the cooks to cook another piece for me because they didn’t think it was enough. It was something that I would’ve internally noticed but would have never said aloud so I really appreciated that. We asked for the bill right at closing time, and the server asked if we wanted dessert. We said we thought about it but didn’t want to keep the staff there after closing. She was super nice and encouraged us to order anyway because there were people there who would stay much longer than us (they did). Just little things that don’t happen often in Olympia food service that I really appreciated!“
