Great drinks and quick service. Waitress was attentive. High price point compared to other cocktail bars around town, but still worth it. Only real knock is they seated us 15 minutes past our reservation time.

The sushi was really delicious! I had the fried rice, California crunch roll, and spiced brownie. Everything was wonderful and tasted delicious. They have a great drink menu and loved the drink of the day the bartender made. The staff was attentive and the inside of the restaurant was so nice on the inside. There is parking just to the side of the building, and my only issue was having a hard time finding the door at the beginning as it blends in well with the outside wall. But look for the menu if you're coming for the first time!

Coopers Hawk was the perfect place for our annual Best Friends Christmas Happy Hour. Attentive service from all staff members who helped us, great food and beverage selections, and terrific atmosphere. Brennan took great care of us. He is very knowledgeable about the wine and the menu, and checked on us often. Definitely going back to Coopers Hawk!
