I am obsessed with this place! Live music every night and the best martinis in EV, hands down. Authentic NY vibes, cozy atmosphere! Try the chocolate martini!
Melinda BattleAugust 24, 2012great find...what's better than chilled vodka and caviar? dill vodka is amazing. fyi...CASH ONLY but a friendly and quirky place
Judy LuoOctober 25, 2015pros: the chocolate martini is a miracle. live musicians are charming. romantic ambiance. cons: teeny place that gets super crowded around 9pm. cash only and no take home option for leftovers.
Sarah Judd WelchApril 13, 2012Amazing live music at night, and a very comfy home-like feel. Quirky staff, but in the good way. Perfect for a catchup w/ friends or a date.

FoodtoEatJuly 27, 2012A perfect first date place! The Chicken Pelmeni is just the right size, not too filling but tasty. Great ambiance!
A great date spot with plenty of cozy tables. They have live music every night and they are usually pretty phenomenal
Anna SayerDecember 4, 2014Delicious beef pelmeni with mushrooms! However, I was disappointed with chocolate fondue which we ordered for dessert... For some reason the chocolate was sour and tasted nothing like chocolate :S
Cozy and lively spot with great house made infused vodkas. Try the espresso martini!- Gabriel d. A. L.November 8, 2015You do not find the vodka infusions elsewhere. All of them are great, but I especially like the beet one.
Jason FeldmanJanuary 8, 2012The Bloody Romanov has been confirmed 3x over to be an unbearable cocktail. Otherwise the rest of the drinks are delicious, ambience is great.
Jenny BaiJuly 11, 2011the caprioskas are the best here. infused vodka with mint. strawberry is the best flavor - not too sweet or overpowering
Alex RobertsonJune 10, 2022cute martini (🤷🏻♂️)-centric bar with live music. most martinis $15 I think- Vodka vodka vodka! Seriously, you can drink glass after glass and wake up feeling fine. Also - ESPRESSO MARTINI
Rachel PortOctober 21, 2015The drinks are all acquired tastes I think... But the salmon tartare is absolutely delicious. The inside ceiling mimics stars shining through a thick leafy jungle. Fun blue lights outside.
Cinty IonescuMay 31, 2014Espresso can last more than 40 min while the waitress assures you "some day it'll come" -just rude. Espresso means fast, but not at Anyway, I left after 40min as it wasn't made yet!!!
Pete StaianoJuly 15, 2010Come every other Wed. night and see Eric Nicolas & Melissa Rodnon. A good time will be had, so check it out!
Dorian WalkerApril 16, 2010Come on Thursdays from 9 p.m.-12 midnight to hear Grace Garland. She's incredible.
Tell Irena (the bartender) you love her!!!!!!!
