    Wow!!! Hands down this is my favorite speakeasy in SD and will be coming back each time we are here. The vibes were there and the drinks…oh my goodness they were absolutely delicious and the service was top notch! Kept us entertained the whole time and the mixologist was from our neck of the wood in Fontana

    Plan to uber or give yourself lots of time to circle for parking. But the staff and cocktails and vibes were well worth the headache. Great spot!

    A great experience! We had a lovely pre-theatre dinner. Both food and cocktails were very unique and creative. We would highly recommend it.

    It was such a great experience and the hosts and bartenders were very nice and accommodating. Shout out to Sam our bartender, she was so good and knowledgeable while still being super friendly and cool.

    Excellent cocktail bar tucked inside of the bakery. Bartenders are incredibly knowledgeable, approachable, and friendly. Atmosphere is fun but quiet. Sat at the bar and the service was great. Funnily, we were walking down the block looking for the entrance (did not realize the entrance was inside the bakery) and one of the bartenders saw us and pointed us in the right direction. All this to say, bartenders are friendly and helpful both inside and outside the bar!

    The quality of the drinks and food was impressive. Such great balance of flavors and unique combinations of ingredients yet each felt familiar and spectacular. I was blown away by the black sesame old fashioned and the chicken, mushrooms and cucumber salads are all worth going back for again and again. Extremely high quality ingredients served with care and the highest level of service. It was a treat to spend time at this venue.
