Tellement belle découverte ! Ce petit bar a vraiment tout pour plaire : une ambiance chaleureuse, une déco soignée qui donne envie d'y passer des heures, & des cocktails aux noms originaux qui font sourire avant même la première gorgée. C'est l'endroit parfait pour un date ou une soirée entre amis. & que dire de la bouffe… vraiment délicieuse ! Franchement, on peut y aller les yeux fermés

Very cool bar with nice decor & well made cocktails. There's also the advantage of getting pizzas as snacks while you drink! Would absolutely recommend if you're willing to wait
Nous sommes venus avec l'envie de découvrir de bons cocktails, mais j'ai été déçu par l'expérience. Le verre''sans alcool'' était rempli à ras bord de glaçons, au point qu'on avait du mal à distinguer le goût du jus ou même à en trouver suffisamment. On aurait dit plus un fond de bouteille qu'un vrai cocktail... 4 petites gorgées à la paille, c'est risible pour ce prix.
J'ai tenté d'en parler au gérant, mais la discussion a été écourtée assez sèchement. Peu d'écoute, & une attitude un peu condescendante, comme si ma remarque n'était pas légitime. Dommage, car le lieu a du potentiel, mais ce genre d'accueil refroidit vite l'ambiance… autant que les glaçons dans mon verre. La serveuse était quand à elle très agréable. Avis très mitigé. Nous sommes partis au bout de 15 minutes vu la situation ubuesque.

A unique & outstanding cocktail bar! Excellent craftsmen behind the bar! Very welcoming attentive staff! Relaxed vibe! They use some obscure & interesting rums!
Really good atmosphere & amazing drinks. Only issue is that the DJ was so so bad & the music was deeply loud, kinda ruined the vibe tbh. Like I'm having a fancy drink, why are they playing Africa by shakira & wiggle wiggle??

Loved this bar! The 5$ pizza is actually so delicious & so are the drinks ! The staff is really friendly & the atmosphere is chill . Good music . Love the decor & vibe , nice little getaway from your usual bar scene . Would go again for sure
The bar is nice, cocktails were great, server & host too were pleasant, but 30 min wait to be seated for a bar for me it's not worth it. I only waited because my friends were too tired to go anywhere else. I would not come back.
Cute ambience, good cocktails, great selection of Italian food. Also good music playlist.
The waiter was cool. He made sure to check up on us to see what we wanted to order next & cleared our plates in a timely manner.
The bar's a /lot/ smaller than the photos appear, & I just feel like if they were slightly bigger & got a dance floor or something, this place would be absolutely perfect. Still had a sweet time!
