    Great service. Great food and drinks. Make sure you look up when looking for the entrance. I think we took two laps around the block before seeing the entrance.

    Great cocktails at great value for their happy hour. Their bartenders are absolutely lovely and so friendly. Went three times with different visiting groups of friends in one week and will continue to be a patron.

    It was amazing! Great Prohibition-style vibes, stellar service, and incredible food. Highlights: Crystal Old Fashioned, bone marrow, scallops, lamb chops, and the Old Forester Bourbon Flight. 10/10—will return!

    This is an intimate speakeasy. The music on nov 30 evening was excellent. Beautiful jazz trio that can play just about anything. The drinks are inventive - and expensive. We pay because we like to hear the music. We had a wonderful server, Carla, who took good care of us. I think everyone should try it! By the way, the French fries are worth the trip! Hot, crunchy, crispy, with a touch of parmesan. Almost ordered a second helping!
