   Tucked secretly behind the Stage Star Deli is a true hidden gem. The dark walls, old world library-esque decor and lighting, and thoughtful and comfortable lounge seating make you feel a bit like the velvet curtain to enter is actually a time machine. It's so much fun. Our bartender, Liam, was awesome. I'd go back just for his service, craft bartending, and dead pan humor, but really the entire team, drinks, and food were excellent all around. We went two nights ago and I'm still thinking about those burger sliders. 😏 Would love to keep this place an actual secret, but it deserves to be known widely for what a cool and special space they've created. Perfect for a date night, team happy hour or to catch up with friends. So glad we found it- we will absolutely be back next time we are in the city. I've already raved to my colleagues about it, so expect big business during our annual work trip in September!

   It’s a nice place to go after dinner. I ordered a drink and it was not up to my taste and the waitress did not charge me for it which was super nice of her. Quickly changed my drink for something more my taste. It was divine.

   A hidden gem. Very cozy and comfortable spot to meet a friend. Great ambiance, great environment. The feeling is as you’re in someone’s very casual and comfortable living room. Well worth the visit.

   This place is amazing. We came here for dinner and drinks before heading to a show. I really love the speakeasy vibe, and it's so cool that you walk through a real deli (I've gotten breakfast here before work many times)! I'll definitely be coming back again.
