Also, great decor and atmosphere, available valet parking. It was slightly loud but reasonable. Some of the noises were coming from enjoying place customers. Highly recommend!

Sat outside for dinner aka tapas and every single dish was a home run. The Spanish octopus was incredible with the ceviche being a nice touch. The pickled duo is the perfect appetizer. The standouts of the night was the lobster rolls which had both me and my partner craving more. The steak is out of sight and cooked to perfection and topped with flakey salt. Also do not sleep on the 24k fried chicken, it was great!

We were really impressed by the menu items before coming. Once we got there, the quality, quantity, and overall flavor did not meet our expectations or the price. The drinks were lackluster, and the food was not far behind. If you are interested in trying a variety of top shelf liquors, this is the place. But anything that requires service or eating, I would spend your money elsewhere.

From my very first interaction with the valet, then a warm and welcoming greeting and triage by the hostess I knew I was at the right place. Then, Sara and Gearóid proceeded to make it a memorable experience with savvy mixology and on point recommendations. They run a tight but joyful bar and were superbly adept at balancing all their guest’s experiences. Where else can you get a great cocktail and unexpected excellent conversation but a speakeasy? Classic drink menu with some inventive and fun twists. The food was excellent, and service had just in time tempo with unobtrusive but friendly interaction. Presentation was just right - no empty pretense- honest but dazzling flavors. Hated to leave and all I can say is I will be back soon. A new favorite.

The drinks were amazing, but you do pay quite a bit for a cocktail. We had the escargot which had a ton of salty melted parmesan on top; totally unnecessary and ruined the dish. We had the 24k chicken. This too was salty as well and had an odd presentation... they laid a retangle gold foil ontop of one of the pieces. However, the truffle garlic fries were delicious...how can you ruin those. 😁 GREAT GREAT service! I would go back again for drinks... based on these pupus.. I would have dinner somewhere else though.

Everything was delicious! We had the fried chicken, steak, "blue balls" (mac and cheese balls), uni pasta, and kampachi tacos. They're all tasty but the chicken is the most interesting as it comes with edible gold and honey. I had the Thyme Out cocktail as well and it was light and refreshing. Service was good and ambiance is hip and chill. Valet parking is $5 (don't forget to tip the valet attendant)!

Absolutely stunning interior, great service, an interesting and unique menu for both bites and drinks! Our party of 4 ordered 6 different drinks total and each one had its own charm. The appetizers were yummy, but small so don’t expect to be full unless you order a bunch! It definitely was a great experience and we are all looking forward to coming here again in the future. I would recommend this location to others.

I don’t want to share about this place for fear that too many people will go and I can’t get a last minute reservation anymore. Seriously, the food was delicious and cooked perfectly. The choices are plentiful but the real star here is the menu of liquid libations! Don’t hesitate. Go and be satiated.

Inside was cool but we where sat outside, tight and bland. Food and service good, but not a speakeasy just a regular restaurant/bar.
