I love a speakeasy that actually commits to being a speakeasy. The entrance is very unassuming, the vibes on the inside were really cool (a little loud though), and the drinks were made with care. The one I got was described to be similar to a gimlet on the menu (I don’t remember the name of it), it was really delicious.

Make sure you look for the entrance in the back. I got lost and took me a bit to find. Super sexy cocktail bar. Lots of blacks and reds and dim lighting. A menu is presented on a newspaper, but the bar tender at the time knew his business and could recommend strong cocktails based on your preferences. Great bar for sophisticated drinks!

We are so glad we checked this place out. Really cool vibe and intimate spot. No issues walking in on a week night without reservations. Our favorite was the old fashioned!

Strange experience. There is a rule against phones fyi. Was helped but also seemed like me being there was an annoyance.
