    Great venue, amazing service and the cocktails and food is top notch. Be on time because they have very limited seating and you will want to enjoy every minute of your time there. Staff is polite and professional! They're fairly new but run a tight operation!

    This is an extremely elevated cocktail lounge experience. You get escorted upstairs with a set of rules and time limit. The menu is separated into standard offering, seasonal offering, and the option to omakase (the server asks you questions to make your perfect cocktail). My group did one of each. We did a variety of the food as well; the special, the hot dog, the fries and the chicken wings. The wings were spectacular (the flats), the hot dog wasn’t anything to write home about personally, and the special was incredible. Overall, would come back, wish there wasn’t a time limit on the table, felt a little rushed out for the amount of money we were spending.

    Drinks were unique and flavorful. I also enjoyed the drink option that let you tell them what flavor palette you enjoy and they made a surprise drink for you based on your preferences.

    Amazing on all fronts — service, ambiance, food, and of course drink. Cannot wait to tell (very select) friends about it (so I can continue to find reservations), and come back!
