    Awesome ambiance and super fun and delicious drinks! The drinks are pricey, but worth it. Nice food menu with plenty of vegetarian options. Wait staff and bartender attentive and personable.

    The ambiance and service were absolutely wonderful! The presentation was more than anywhere I have been, everything was new and thoughtful and fun! But….and this is a big but….there was nothing in the drinks! They were all ice! I am not new to bars or tiki bars or expensive bars, and I have paid 22 dollars for drinks before, but there was almost no liquid in the drink! After 50 dollars, I didn’t feel a thing and I had about 7 sips, it was disappointing to the extreme, they could have even given me a cup of juice and I would have been happier. I was so excited to go and then so disappointed to leave 150 dollars later and then go to another bar up the street, 6 arms, and be happier there.

    Great cool and neat place with very cool decor. The drinks were very unique, tasty, delicious and very cool presentations. The staff was very attentive and nice to us throughout the night. The vibe was super awesome for a tiki bar.

    Loved everything about this place, from the drinks to the food to the ambiance. Flew in from California and this place was on my list of places to try and man did it not disappoint! I envy the locals who get to come here and experience this place regularly.

    The server was very friendly, knowledgeable about the menu and excited to give some delicious recommendations. The decor is awesome and the spectacle of the drinks is pretty fun (and quite tasty too!) Don't sleep on the food either, the soba noodles were fantastic and the rice pudding for dessert was some of the best I've had.

    The drinks were exotic and tasty and the presentation was like nothing we’ve ever seen before. Truly next level. The first appetizer was amazing, but every dish that came out after was better than the one before. Every bite made us wonder how they pulled off this magic feat. Ash was our server and she was attentive, engaging, helpful, and friendly. Even if the food had been mediocre, Ash would have made the trip worthwhile.

    This is a speakeasy inside of the Rumba restaurant with a pirate/carribean theme. Super tiny. Max of 6 people per reservation. Novelty super cool drinks, kinda pricey, small shareable bites. The food is yummy. Ask for light ice or you'll get a cup of ice with little alcohol. Book in advance.
    Inside PassageResponded on October 3, 2024
    Hi, thanks for coming in! So you enjoyed your food and drinks! For the record, there are full pours of alcohol in every cocktail regardless of the amount of ice in the vessel. We don't use a lot of sugary syrups and mixers just to increase the volume of the drinks being served in fun but extra large vessels. We focus on well balanced cocktails with premium spirits with real fruits and flavorings.
