Maybe could've been done in a nicer way, especially because I still tipped and covered the drink (and it was not busy in the slightest). Anyway, the space was really nice but I wish they would've let her turn up her music more so we could've danced.

It's best for small groups (no more than 4-5). I love the customer service here: our server explained the alcohol as we got each of our cocktails. I will admit, though, because I'm slightly hard of hearing, I missed a lot of the explanations, but that's ok. I came in a group of four and we all took sips of each other's drinks and that was really fun! Every drink was great, but I do favor my sake drink, white port/cream soda cocktail, the vermouth, and the one with the amaretto. Don't expect the menus to be the same as in this review! They do change it frequently and have non-alcoholic mocktails, too. We heard about this place from coworkers and that they had won an award for best new bar--an award that's well-deserved.

I appreciated that they were checking vaccine cards (January 2022), the great cocktail list, and the cool lounge vibes. The seating would be really pleasant for a small group or a casual mingle but I imagine it can be loud and hard to maneuver if it's busy.

Wouldn't go out of my way to come back but also wouldn't avoid it in the future, especially if I was in the area.

We ended up having a last-minute venue change to Ladder, and I am so happy that the prior venue fell through. I worked directly with the owner, who was awesome! He was able to work with what we wanted/needed to be covid friendly during an event, and he was always accessible. I had preselected appetizers for everyone, and I did drink tickets.

The venue itself is perfect for a fun and relaxed event. The room was spotless and the staff was extremely accommodating to any requests from myself or my guests! As for the food!

We are a family of foodies and all agreed that the Chicken Francaise was delectable! Penne pink vodka would rival any of your well known Italian restaurants! Everyone remarked on the fabulous food!

The beer list isn't huge, but they have some local options and classics. Their cocktails and mocktails are fun, and the food menu is very diverse. I do wish they had a few more vegetarian late night options that weren't so high end/over the top unique, but I went with the Street Noodles tonight (love that they have a tofu option on their protein list!) They had a slight kick and the portion was so big I have leftovers. Over server was very attentive and helpful; it was a little less crowded here than I'm used to on a weekend night so we really got the royal treatment. They also host lots of events and have an amazing brunch service - it sounds weird and the upcharge is a little high, but the grilled tomatoes at brunch are INCREDIBLE and a must try! Same goes for the cheddar biscuits - they're just phenomenal. There's sometimes a DJ at brunch and it's more of a clubby vibe, but other times it's more chill, I'm not sure how you'd figure that out ahead of time. I thought they only had the small shared lot in the back, but I was today years old when I found out they have a large lot across the street, so it's actually quite easy to park here. An original, one of a kind spot, where you can tell whoever put the menu together wanted to offer out of the box options and not just another trite bar menu. This place is creative and just fills me with joy every time I'm here.
