This review is solely about the service our group received at Deja Vu last night.
There were five of us, and this was our first stop after dinner, around 8:30pm. We went straight to the bar and waited patiently while the tall, bald male bartender repeatedly served people who arrived after us. When he finally acknowledged us, his attitude was dismissive and visibly irritated. Mind you, we weren't a group of loud 20-somethings - we are all in our 30s and 40s.
I asked about a martini on the menu and politely requested that he leave one ingredient out. Instead of a simple “yes” or “no,” he responded with a snarky, condescending remark before making the drink. When it arrived, I could immediately tell he hadn’t rinsed the shaker from the previous drink - the martini tasted strongly of chocolate, which clearly wasn’t one of the ingredients.
My sister paid for both our drinks - two $11.50 martinis - but she later told me she was charged $39! Every other person in our group, who paid individually, also noticed their drinks were $2–3 higher than the listed price.
By the end of of our stay, we all agreed: the bartender’s rude attitude, carelessness, and overcharging left a worse taste in our mouths than the drink did. For a place that markets itself as a higher-end cocktail bar, this was shockingly unprofessional service and an experience none of us will be repeating.

Blonde server was so rude to me and my friends on 7/26. Love this place, so I was extremely disappointed.

The bar tender that ran of the back of the house was amazing. The guy up front was terrible, kinda of rude and neglected the people at the bar. The lady up fron5 was also amazing and great drinks.

I love De Ja Vu. This review is upstairs. Monkey bar sucks. Drinks are awful. Girl bartending is crabby. Took my family and friends here and will never come here again. I ordered a strawberry marg and she put something green in it. Ordered a pina colada and it is gross. Will absolutely never come again. We asked for her to remake and she said “can you see i am busy”
Nice chill bar with a large selection of unique martini options. It's just a great place to get away from the normal drinking scene and try something with a unique flavor and be able to hang out and relax a bit or a great place to take a date, they also have a punch card system that rewards you for buying a set number of cocktails, there definitely a place I wouldn't mind checking out again in the future
