    Super loud and poor seating structure especially for the high tables. The tables are so close and you have people brushing by your seat and asking you to excuse them so they can walk through the restaurant. The service was very slow and the drink I ordered initially wasn’t good.

    Bar was too cold. Drinks were good, food was ok, a little pricy for amount you received. Service was good. Was a little loud. Would definitely go back though.

    For the most part. It was great. We really enjoyed it. We chose to sit at the bar because we thought there was going to be some type of f or cool show drinks made smoked something like that. There wasn’t that. However, the drinks we had were all phenomenal. Really good flavor. They only serve appetizers, so definitely try and eat at the restaurant first, but the appetizers were delicious.

    What an amazing place! The staff went above and beyond to make my husband's birthday perfect. Big shout-out to Colin, the GM. We will be back again for dinner, drinks, and appetizers. Don't miss this place; it's such a great vibe.

    Drop, dead, amazing. I fell In love with the theme of this speakeasy bar and the house music just added a nice modern element to the 70s vibes. Definitely will come back with friends again, it’s beautiful.

    Severe lack of service. I suggest sitting at a bar top, bartender is fantastic. Drinks were great! Please see private note for details about my dining experience. Thank you.

    This is by far the worst bar/speakeasy in the metro Phoenix area. No visual appeal, high top tables line the wall, like an old bar would look. Service is terrible, management rude and confrontational. Had a reservation, and upon showing up was told that there were no tables, only to find out they gave our reservation away to someone who had a bad experience in the restaurant (Filthy Animal), as a way to make it up. Turned out we knew the party and they told us they were given our reservation as a way to fix their dinner experience. The manager kept stating they had a reservation not knowing we knew them. After a while they gave us a different table (terrible) but it was almost 45 minutes after our reservation, and after them telling us to squeeze 6 people in the one open seat at the bar. Service was terrible and after one drink we left. This place will not last with their current management, service or decor. Go anywhere but here.
