Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
Youngblood offers a unique speakeasy experience with a "three-course cocktail" concept, expertly crafted by knowledgeable bartenders. The atmosphere is intimate and inviting, described as a "magnificent" and "cozy tiny room." Many rave about the "amazing drinks" and "phenomenal service," though some miss the former fully customizable menu.

    Overall Youngblood is always great. We were disappointed that they changed their customized drink approach. Wasn’t happy that the “appetizer” and “dessert” drinks were from a preset menu. Getting 3 personalized customized drinks was the primary reason for going there.

    So bummed because I’ve heard amazing things about this place and I wanted to love it! They must’ve recently changed the menu because prior to this you had the autonomy to choose all 3 drinks, and cater them to your interests. The preset menu was just ok. They were packing in people like sardines at the bar so it was incredibly uncomfortable. Good atmosphere and idea, but now I think they’re more interested in getting in as many people as possible. Definitely wouldn’t come back.

    Always a fun time here. The format has changed a bit. You’re now greeted with a menu, allowing to start with a more zeroed in cocktail. I always enjoy my time and experience here. The staff is so professional and attentive.

    I made the reservation based off of other Open Table positive reviews and then later read a note on Young Blood’s website that they had significantly increased the price while also changing the experience as of 2/12/25. For $260 for three people, the room was beautiful and drinks were “interesting” but the value just isn’t there for the price. I made the reservation for a customized experience with no menu. As soon as we were seated, we were handed a brief menu to choose from. Limited attention from 2 bartenders serving about 12 people at once. There is no food but the review makes you choose stars for that category. Overall I’d give it 3.5 stars but I wouldn’t recommend it to a close friend or family member. I just wanted the experience to match how beautiful the bar is and I was disappointed in that. Of the three drinks that I was served, the first was 10 out of 10, but the second was maybe 7.5 out of 10 and third “dessert” course was maybe a 6.5.

    The experience was hyped up by friends and we were told it would be a fully customizable drink menu catered to your taste and preference. However, 2 of the 3 drinks were from a pre-fixed menu and the third was your choice. The ambiance and drinks were great, but for $200 for 6 drinks after tip, doesn’t really seem worth it. Definitely a one and done for me.
