  There’s a reason this place has been called best cocktail bar in the country. The seating is limited so make sure you go at opening or are prepared to wait - but the intimate atmosphere is worth it. Cocktails and snacks are both wonderful - you can’t go wrong with any of their crazy cocktail concoctions! I’ve had the radishes and the zaatar popcorn and they’re great to go with the drinks. Waitstaff is very friendly for when you come across an alcohol listed that you don’t know what it is. You can’t go wrong sitting inside or outside; both have their own wonderful and charming vibe.

  For what we recieved the price was simple and straightforward and extremely reasonable considering the often rare and expensive ingredients, the included gratuity in the price of our reservation, and the overall experience. Our team made up of Alicia, Tony, and Kyle (didnt catch the bartenders names otw in) showed not only a high level of professionalism and service but a real warmth, engagement and understanding of not only the the ingredients and their unique stories but also the full depth of the process and the importance therein. They were explaining fairly complex symatic and resonant functions with ease while preparing everything in a timely manner with care and time taken in each step while handling other guests simultaneously working as a cohesive unit while letting their individual talents shine. I wont get into details of ingredients or presentation as i want everyone who goes to experience it without bias but it was phenomal interesting and dynamic in every way and i will absolutely recommend this to many of my friends and associates as every part of this experience was a delight. Alicia Tony and Kyle all kept it real and made me feel like a king as well so i will definitely be seeking their service again in the future!

  Rated best cocktail bar in the country and it's hard to disagree. I've had both the set menu in the reservations only space as well as numerous drinks on the patio. The cocktails themselves are creative and use rare and interesting ingredients. Seasonality is very important and the menu changes frequently. Small food menu so this is a place to go before or after dinner. Not cheap but you get what you pay for.

  High demand bar. Count your blessings for seating. Try to get in early and expect amazing cocktails. It is a great date spot. I recommend the large shared cocktails for dates like the fish bowl cocktails.

  Classy cocktail lounge, perfect for date night. Ambience is good. Only downside is it's very small so the wait can be 30min+ even during slower times.
