Ranu R.Ranu Rajkarnikar: Delicious bespoke drinks and a cool hidden exterior. Loved the beekeeper drink I had with bourbon and honey. An intimate space that's great for a date or catching up with an old friend.

s v.s v: (Thrillist tip) No menu, so get comfortable w/ the pro bar staff and bare your soul..modern classics, like the Penicillin, with whiskey, honey-ginger syrup, lemon, and Islay Scotch.

Steven L.Steven Lehrburger: Don't bother with the cocktails on the menu - they're not as interesting as they pretend to be, and they're served over ice that melts much too quickly. Order wine or whiskey instead!

Tyla F.Tyla Fowler: The vibe is cool, but don't expect a well made drink. If you do want a cocktail, order one on their menu as the bartenders don't even know the classics. Sticking to whiskey next time!

ReevesReeves: Totally overrated especially if you don't want your bourbon in a tea cup
