    Women as lovers  Smokey Robinson

    My favorite cocktail bar in downtown at the moment. I'm normally hanging out in Winter Park or Mills for drinks but if I find myself around, I'm definitely stopping here. This is a hidden gem- it's also one of those "if you know, if you know spots" - downtown orlando secrets. The bartenders are always so sweet and will willingly create something for you from scratch, and I promise it'll hit every single time. Indoors, it's very dark and sexy. It's a place you can truly enjoy a well crafted drink but also have a lovely conversation. I truly miss these kind of places, how cocktail bars all started - intimate, low music, selective seating... exclusivity. Although this place has a vibe, the ambiance is 2nd and quality of the drinks/service is 1st priority. These days you'll stumble upon very beautiful places but unfortunately find a lot of opportunity in other areas... if you catch my drift. P.S Women As Lovers: made with Tequila, Sipsmith Sloe Gin, and in house Lemon juice. A beautiful well balanced drink. Start with that :)

    Cute little place. I was walking downtown and when I started walking past this place it just called me in with its cozy feel. The servers were nice and provided drinks quickly. Service with a smile.

    After a great Yelp event came here with some Yelpers and had a great time. This is a small bar with great art work on display. Has a NY vibe and really loved everything about this place. I wanted something off menu and Thanks to Gen I was introduced to The French 75. This is a refreshing drink with gin, fresh lemon juice, sugar and Champagne. It was amazing and when I'm feeling fancy I'll order it again. Overall this place is a small but cool place to get some handcrafted cocktails.

    This bar is great. Has. Exotic vibe. The Bartender was very professional and talented. Very aware of people coming in and who to serve next. I think they only thing is I don't think they have enough seating for when it gets busy but other than that really cool place.

    This is a hidden gem in downtown Orlando! This is hands down the best kept secret in Orlando. If you are looking for a great cocktail in an amazing setting with top-tier mixologists this is the spot. Brown was our mixologist and he was so hospitable and knowledgeable about spirits and cocktails. Note this is a very small space so it's not ideal for large groups but perfect for date night or grabbing a drink with a friend.

    Came in to go check out Hansens speakeasy upstairs but ended up at their downstairs bar a lot longer. Very inviting entrance. Bottles were lined up against the wall all lit up. Checked out their specialty cocktails which was a completely different menu than upstairs. We tried the penicillin, the women as lovers, paper plane and a titos soda. The paper plane was delicious and my favorite by far. Bartender was great, super nice and easy going. Artwork was cool and even saw the artist come in and charge some artwork. Small bar so recommend the week nights to go if you want to relax, have a good cocktail and avoid the crowds.

    Went to Bacchus after a festival at the Pier. It didn't disappoint and the server was great. I will definitely be back when I'm in the area.

    Beautiful, cozy, elegant bar with perfect lighting! We happen to be in downtown and decided to come here to try some amazing cocktails. We were greeted immediately by the bar tender and we got seated with our menus. They have some amazing cocktails and one of my favorite modern classics - Naked and Famous was there too. The bar tender took special care in prepping these cocktails and we enjoyed watching him make them. Cocktail making is an art and Patrick (our bar tender) was superb at it. Bauhaus has a cozy seating area at the bar which can fit up to 10 people so it's never super packed. They also have couple tables just for standing which is great too to hang out with your group. Orlando downtown is super fun and this is one of those places you can't miss!

    Paper Plane

    Absolutely amazing cocktails. Our mixologist, Brown, was wonderful and so knowledgeable on everything. He made such great custom cocktails based upon flavor profiles you liked. He is super passionate about his trade and it shows. Everyone else there was friendly and welcoming! Definitely Recommend.

    I've not had a bad drink here yet. Been coming for years. Sergey knows his spirits, composition, and balance like few in town. He will make your new favorite drink, guaranteed.

    Didn't have anything I wanted on the menu so I told him what I liked and he made the most perfect drink! Thank you brown!

    Oh man.. this was my very first time at Bauhaus and I loved it. The ambiance is nice, the drinks are tasty and it's located far enough from the craziness of Wall Street. I ordered a paper plane it was legit good. The drink was strong and tasty. The service was good too. Another thing about this place is that there is a speakeasy upstairs with a secret password to access. My friends and I try to check it out but it was quite crowded. One thing is for sure I will definitely visit Bauhaus the next time I'm downtown and make myself upstairs to the speakeasy.

    Bauhaus is a beautiful bar with a great ambiance, excellent service and great drinks! The downtown Orlando area has a lot of cool bars but this one by far has to be one of my favorite ! Definitely stop by Bauhaus if you want to spend a chill night out with friends in a cool bar with great service and an awesome atmosphere!

    Fantastic drinks. Very comfortable, relaxing vibes…read more Good music. And delicious food. Definitely worth visiting, Noir.

    Noir Bar is definitely one of my top BARS to visit on my short list of bars I enjoy immensely. I've…read morebeen coming since it opened, and I really cannot say I've been disappointed. The ambiance and feel of the bar is very "sultry" and "intimate." The mood lighting, dark paneling/interiors paired with the bar itself being lit to be the center of attention, lends itself to the secretiveness and LURE that a modernized speakeasy would provide. I truly enjoy stepping foot into this little hidden, but NOT so hidden, gem (which can be accessed from the interior to Talay). Service can be slow at times - especially when they are busy. However, the staff is usually always gracious, helpful, and willing to serve. The few great mixologists I've met there have also been very willing to break down how they make their drinks and really give us a glimpse into their world. So, I'm appreciative of that. That is not something that you can always expect at bars. As for the drinks (and food I'll glaze over), I am usually not left disappointed. I appreciate that seasonally they play with their drink menu and introduce new cocktails. I also love a handful of their signature drinks on the menu. This may be the only bar I've had a drink with Aperol in it that I actually ENJOYED (and not tolerated). The pricing can get high depending on what you order, but for the area and the going rate of a night out, they hold their own. Definitely don't pop into Noir if you are looking for an AFFORDABLE cocktail experience because the tab will creep up on you. The food is OKAY. They share a kitchen with Talay and offer some items not on the Talay menu - which is nice. However, I rarely eat when I visit, so the few times I have, it's been okay. Nothing to truly brag home about. I am happy, though, that they did start offering food because in the very beginning (when they first opened), that was not an option. Anyways, Noir Bar is GREAT (to me)! I will keep coming here and recommending it to others. It's also great for a date night or night out with your friends. It's in a decent location - but please take heed of parking in this area, as it can be challenging to find FREE street parking. However, there is parking available all around and in various garages nearby.

    After months of anticipation... I finally made it to Alfie's…read more It was exactly what I was hoping it would be: a slice of culture. Real people. Real life. Real youth. Real energy. Real good vibes. Orlando obviously has no shortage of places to eat, drink, and gather, but Alfie's belongs to that rare category of venues that feel equally at home in a major metropolis. It's the kind of spot that would fit seamlessly into Los Angeles's best neighborhoods: think Gold Line in Highland Park or the Vinyl Room at the Hollywood Palladium. Not because they're carbon copies, but because they share that intangible quality of genuine discovery and cultural curiosity. The crowd ( age range 25 - 35 mostly ) was genuinely engaged with one another. People were actually talking, actually present, not hunched over their phones. That alone felt invigorating. There was an undeniable spark in the room. Alfie's wasn't chasing trends; it was simply allowing them to emerge naturally. What impressed me most was how they brought it all together .. Retro stereo equipment and vinyl players from the 50s mixed with a bar area that's super sleek and modern. Conversations, music, the lounge itself .... all came together in a way that felt alive and IN THE MOMENT. When my LA friends visit, Alfie's is on the list. Go after 9 or 10 PM and plan to stay for at least two hours. That's when you really see the scene develop and come alive. Bring your ID: they card at the door. Even at my age, I still get carded. No complaining about that ! lol

    We entered around 8 pm on a Wednesday. We considered getting a drink since it was cold inside and…read morethe music was good. However, we initially entered to get a picture in the photobooth for our friends birthday. There was no one at the door checking IDs. After we all piled into the photobooth, someone walked up and asked for our IDs. He wanted us to exit the booth to get them. Eventually said ok because we had already paid and on a timer. But he was very impatient. Let me add that there was not a single person in the entire place. NO ONE. Let me also add that almost our entire group is almost 40. So we're obv not underage. With the way he approached us and was completely impatient, we were a little turned off and left. Which lost them money on our entire group. He followed us out the door as we left. It was a weird experience especially when there was literally no one else in there. The music was good but I doubt and of us will to back based on that experience alone.

    Otto High Dive was our next stop on my Magical Dining tour, and wow, what an experience!…read more My sister and brother-in-law were visiting, so we made reservations (definitely recommend). Parking was easy with free spots in the back and additional street parking. We were a little unsure where the entrance was at first, but a staff member outside noticed and guided us right in small detail, big impact. Once inside, we were greeted warmly and seated immediately. The restaurant was lively and busy in the best way. It's an intimate space, but beautifully styled very much giving South Beach energy. Our waiter, Louis, truly elevated the experience. He introduced himself, explained the menu thoroughly, and made great recommendations. We opted for the Magical Dining $40 three-course menu along with the $30 drink pairing, which included a drink for each course such a great value. My meal: * Appetizer: Fresh ceviche with tuna, avocado, and watermelon light, flavorful, and unique * Drink: Floridian Slip refreshing and perfectly balanced * Entrée: Ropa Vieja - rich, tender, and paired perfectly with rice, beans, and Cuban bread * Drink: Funky - fruity with a nice kick * Dessert: Maduro Bread Pudding - sweet, warm, and indulgent * Drink: Coquito - smooth and the perfect ending Every single course was thoughtfully prepared, and the drink pairings complemented each dish beautifully. Overall, everything from service to ambiance to food was amazing. I'm already planning a return visit to try their happy hour menu!

    I'm really glad we tried this place, but probably won't be in a rush to come back anytime soon…read more The parking is a tight shared lot, so you might get lucky and find a spot, or park across the street and walk over like we did. Our reservation was at 7pm and we didn't get seated until almost 7:30pm. The place itself isn't very big, it's cozy, cute and I liked the vibes but when the other couple we were meeting with showed up it did feel a little crowded by the host stand. The host was nice enough to give us a menu to browse while we waited and someone came to ask us what drink we would like to sip on (i really thought they were offering us a free drink for the wait, but later saw we were charged for them, no biggie but would have been nice considering we waited so long) Drinks were all so so good! No complaints there. We started with the smoked fish dip and ceviche which was different than your typical one, but refreshing! I had the skirt steak - it was flavorful but definitely heavy on the salt. I still really enjoyed it as well as the rice & beans. Hubby got the ropa veija which he enjoyed. Our friend got the osso buco which he liked, but said the chicharron was not good at all. We then had some pastelitos for dessert! They added a 18% gratuity to the check, which was fine and I appreciated them telling us as well as circling it. Overall I think it was really good but nothing out of the world, you can find similar food for much less at your other local Cuban spots - what sets the place apart is the drinks and vibes so if you're looking for the whole experience then it's your place.

We looked over the happy hour menu (good all day on Monday nights and Tuesday through Friday 5-7pm). We ask Mel about the "Bartender's Choice" selection under happy hour drinks. She said the bartender will mix a drink of their preference. The customer cannot choose the alcohol or any mixers as the bartender makes the decisions all by him or herself. Mel asked if we had any allergies or any other issues that might affect the drinks the bartender would like to make. We said we did not and we decided to take on this "choice" experience. Serena was the bartender of the evening and she did an amazing job. She mixed up various concoctions for us throughout the night (we ordered a second round after the first one) and we enjoyed every drink she prepared. The presentation of the drinks were also well done. Serena's cocktails consisted of bourbon, rum, and various ingredients which could include bitters, lemon, agave or other cocktail mixers. She was the bartender extraordinaire of the evening. For food, we ordered the half dozen chicken wings (2 orders since they were so good) and the pizza empanadas to start. The two empanadas had mozzarella cheese stuffed inside and were served with a warm marinara. From the main menu, we ordered the Faroe Island Salmon, which was served on a bad of risotto and tomato butter, with capers. The portion of the salmon was somewhat small for the price of $28, but it and the risotto were cooked perfectly. We ended the night with their signature drink, "Death in the Afternoon" which contains absinthe and is one of my favorite drinks here in Orlando. It was another five star experience and my friend found a new restaurant she now loves. All in all, a great night thanks to the attentiveness and easy-going attitude of Mel, our server, and the exceptional cocktails from the bartender, Serena. Thank you both for a job very well done!

Still, I understand you get what you pay for an they bar seemed to have many top shelf brands and a good selection to boot.
