“Exceeded expectations! Hayes and Jordan were awesome! They were attentive and gave all the guidance one would need in selecting the perfect cocktail! There’s a tie for Best drink of the night burn Strawberry Swing and Love Like Honey! The creamy spinach pizza was my absolute favorite!”
“Great new bar located behind upside pizza with inventive cocktails and an amazing vibe. The sound system is top notch, so the music that they play through audio tapes sound crisp and clear. The music is not too loud, so you can still hear what all of your friends are saying. The food here was amazing as well. I recommend the cheesy bread and the broccolini. This is a great place to catch up with friends all while having drinks and yummy food. There is a variety of cocktails, all reasonably priced, so there should be something for everyone. Go here before it blows up!!!”
“Funny speakeasy 🕺💃✨ Tried mocktail with pandan - new to me, didn't get it. Super convenient to get pizza 🍕. Went on Wed right after opening - quit & enjoyable.”
“Interesting little spot. Actually a very little spot. It's basically a small room with not that much seating. Went on a Saturday night and it was packed. A lot of different and diverse groups of people. Looks very cinematic with the colors, decor, and lighting. Playing classic movies with decent drinks. Prices are great, nothing was over priced. Menu was a bit small, not much food options but you can bring food in, especially from the pizza show right outside. Drinks are limited to but if you ask for something off the menu they'll still make it. Service is fast. Music is good but it's really loud in there from the music and conversation groups were having. Would it recommend coming with a large group unless you come early and get a booth to sit. Decent meet up spot but wouldn't spend the whole night here.”
“Came for a friend’s birthday @7:30pm. We specifically put in the reservation we are celebrating a birthday. No one told us they would be having a private event at 9pm. We had to call them and that’s when they told us as we were on the way there. The bartenders were not friendly or welcoming at all. We were left standing at the bar for an unreasonably long time while the bartender chatted with a customer- not serving just laughing and talking. Meanwhile last call is supposedly at 9, we were trying to get our orders in. Food is mid, drinks are not good enough for $18-20 a drink & wine for $15 a glass at a small hole in the wall bar. Last call was 9 and we had to remind them about our pizza which they forgot about at 8:50. They were cleaning and we had to literally leave the bar at 9. Terrible choice to go for a birthday, terrible place to go with a large group despite a reservation. Not friendly, not anything special. Only thing that saved it was the vibe of it being hidden was truly unique. Disappointed is an understatement.”
