  Warm and inviting atmosphere. The bartender was attentive to us even though we weren't at the bar. The drinks were good and we enjoyed the music playing. I'm going to have to come back on the weekend too what it's like when it's packed. Also, one thing I really appreciate is a well dressed bathroom. They nailed it here!

  This is a great place. Nice atmosphere. They have live music at times and when I was there it was very fitting to the atmosphere. Drinks seem competitively priced with other places in the area.

  I came here once on a whim, and immediately fell in love with the place. It’s dimly lit, with a classy old school feel. The beer and cocktail list is reasonably priced with a lot of good selections; I’m always on the hunt for a good gin cocktail and the ‘Last Word’ is one of my favorites. I hope they consider rotating the menu every so often to keep the offerings fresh.

  I'd prefer to give 2.5 stars so I'll be nice and round up. The atmosphere was good--very lounge feel with velvet booths, lighting, and candles. Cocktails were decent and mid-range in price. Wide variety of other drinks as well (beer, wine, etc). However, one server for a packed house, at least 50 people in our section (Saturday night, packed house, cocktail lounge with one server?) I would have gladly gone up to the bar to order directly, but it was 4 deep across the entirety. At one point, our server told us not to order cocktails because they were 20 minutes behind on them but could "grab a beer fast." We were made to feel like a burden for being there. Drinks were up-charged when we closed out ($6 charge for $5 beer across all who ordered) and waitress said she'd "try" to change that back. All orders were wrong on tabs and waitress had to adjust multiple times to move things around. One in our party paid cash and was given $4 less in change. It took about 3 hours for two rounds and trying to close out (we are not slow drinkers and would have happily ordered more rounds). Finally, it was so uncomfortably warm in there. Everyone in my party was very uncomfortable the entire time and left in a puddle of sweat. Overall, I really wanted to love this place. I do like the atmosphere (save for the hell-fire torture temperature) and the drinks were ok, but really everything else about this place sucked the life out of me.

  The atmosphere is perfect, exactly what you want to feel in a lounge. An easy, relaxing, and inviting blend of old school and modern class. The drinks are modestly priced, the snacks are limited, but tasty, and adequate for two. I enjoy seeing a complete bar, and they have a great selection of liquors. The bartenders are quite knowledgeable and the house drink menu covers all the bases. All in all, this has become our “go to” stop when we’re out and about. Bonus- live music Saturday nights!
