The lighting is dim and the sofas are beautiful. There is a red piano on the other side that just looks so regal. We sat at the bar and were quickly taken care of. They have a great variety of cocktails to choose from and some bites as well if you're feeling hungry. I went with the red eye espresso martini and it was amazing. It tasted like chocolate! The combo of Licor 43 and espresso is delish! Highly recommend. It was a Sunday night so there wasn't too many people, but the bartender did tell us they play live music on Fridays and Saturdays and that is when there is a bigger crowd. We will be going back soon!

We found this restaurant on Yelp. Of course we both got tacos! I got the short rib birria tacos that also came with a little bowl of beans and rice. My partner also got tacos (pork and beef), which came with a large bowl of beans and rice. My short rib birria tacos were so filling. I could only eat two of the three and had to bring the third one home along with her bowl of beans and rice. It was a lot of food. They were also very cheesy! The dipping sauce was good but it was different than I was used to. For drinks, I just ordered a beer and she ordered a crab cocktail. We didn't stay that long because we were both tired that day. For some reason. There is parking right out front. Of course you have to pay to park. It's a very intimate spot on. The staff is very friendly. He might be back before we leave.

Needless to say it was a fun spot that we decided to come by twice! The bartender was a dream. He was very attentive and remembered our drinks. I would definitely be back if I'm in the area.

Potato street hash was amazingly good, and flavored with a great combo of spices and unusual veggies. To test out the basic diner aspect we also got a BLT which was also very good. The only minor hiccups food wise were no coffee for brunch and no bread other than sourdough for the sandwich 4 star service: service was good and friendly. There was only one staffer on duty for the bar and all tables. Even though it was fairly empty, he seemed stretched a little thinly. 5 star ambience: the old one story Thai place that previously occupied the space has been replaced by a second story addition. The interior has been completely reworked and feels modern and slick. Upstairs an outdoor seating area is open to Wilton Drive below.
