I went there for my birthday, & all the bartenders were so kind. They even offered us a shot for the occasion! We had such a great time, the music & the atmosphere were perfect. I'd recommend this place!

Incredible hospitality. The interior acoustics are thoughtfully designed so that each frequency from the house music can be felt fully, but you can have a conversation at normal volume. They have shots that taste like fruit loops. Eric from Montreal/Atlanta bartended & absolutely crushed. Go here!

First time here & the vibe was good our server Nico was super nice & fun. Only thing I would recommend is to lower the music a bit so you could have a conversation without needing to get too loud.

Really creative drinks, some good, some other meh. The music was good but then it was a bit loud. We also had a broken glass when our negroni arrived so watch out, other than that, cool bar, nice lightning & speakeasy style.

updated new place: thank you for hosting, new nice drinks & perfect soundsystem!

This place is over rated. Drinks are great. The DJ is the worst on the planet. He picks his own music that no one else on this planet likes. He is one of a kind. Literally no one else cares what he's playing aside from himself & his 2 buddies. If you're looking for good music you're wasting your time.

Great drinks but sadly the worst DJ & music on the planet. No idea what it is. Don't go there if you're looking to just chill cause it's so loud & it's awful consistent beat. No need to have a DJ there. Unsure why he was even hired. I would not go back.
