So I normally am not a fan of this place at night time. But that's just my personal opinion because…read moreit's very hard to park, the valet takes forever because it's such a small space and so many people it's kind of a nightmare to get in and out of. Also, it's so crowded that it's hard to get a drink and hard to sit anywhere even with the outside patio I felt crammed But with that said......... I absolutely loved it during the daytime!! I went there for a friend's birthday, and I was actually able to enjoy the ambience and really noticed that they have decorated it very nicely and Elegantly inside, I had a chance to actually eat there and the food was really really good. I've had some of their cocktails, which were all very, very well made and very tasty. I will go again, but in a daytime lol Much easier for parking as well

I was surprised to see Jamaican beef patty and coco bread on the menu. Took forever to come out, but when it did...delicious and well worth the wait. Drinks were delicious as well and their bartenders clearly know how to make a great cocktail. Place feels a little "divey" but the vibes, drinks, and surprising food quality make it worth a visit.

After enjoying a late night snack at Handos, we decided to mosey on over to Kampai Club. I had…read moreheard good things for years, and I remember driving past it a couple times and not seeing it or any signage. Even this time the GPS took us to an entrance that had us going the wrong way down a one-way, but we eventually figured it out I will say that the parking isn't all that great, but we were able to find a spot. If the parking lot is full you should be able to find street parking nearby Kanpai Club is a sister location to Handos. They share a kitchen and you can walk through an inside door access either. You can find the same cocktails and bites from Handos on the Kanpai menu, but there's also additional drinks and bites The bar feels like a Japanese Izakaya. It's a narrow space resembling a Japanese outdoor bar. It's intimately lit and well decorated. We did have to wait for two spots to open up, but that didn't take too long The bartenders were friendly, professional, and efficient. We went on a Friday night (fairly late), and they had two dedicated bartenders The cocktails were fun and were beautifully crafted. Most were served in novelty glassware. You can order classic cocktails, but both Kanpai and Hando offer a variety of signature cocktails. Most having some sort of Japanese or Asian fusion. They have beer, wine, and extensive sake list, as well as green tea and other nonalcoholic options The cocktails were tasty. The only one I was iffy on was their Espresso martini. It was poured from a machine and I guess there were having issues with it. The presentation was phenomenal. There was a roasted marshmallow garnish. The drink itself was far too Smokey in flavor than I like, or at least in terms of my espresso martinis The Yuzu Kosho fries were incredible. The flavors really hit the spot. The Okinawa Potato salad was both questionable to looks and and to eat lol. This purple mound of potato's had an interesting taste, look, and consistency. It wasn't bad, just... interesting and new Some tips: If you can't find this spot from the street, look for Handos. It's part of this restaurant Ask the bartender about the happy hour menu. And most nights they're open until 12am, but on Fridays and Saturdays they are open until 2am If you order food online (technically from Hando's) you can get 10% off using code: HANDO10. This is part of their "Hando and Chill" special Cheers!!

Went to Bar Madonna on a Saturday night and was greeted by Dani who makes the most incredible and…read moresophisticated flavored mocktails I've ever tried.

Seriously, it's so charming, and you feel like you're in someone's gorgeous house. The bar was great--our group ordered cocktails and wine and enjoyed them all.

Service was excellent--very nice, helpful, and friendly. We asked the hostess to take our picture as we were leaving, and she was very kind and told us the best spot for a photo.

I have been to Wicklow Heights a handful of times over the past year. They offer fancy cocktails in…read morea laid back setting. They have a small indoor area and a huge outdoor area with couches and benches. The patio is great when the weather is nice, though they have fans and heaters depending on the season. The patio has a huge screen which is great for catching a game. At night, they turn the music up inside so it can be hard to have a conversation. The menu has a lot to offer. The bartenders are very friendly and make great drinks. I'm a fan of the variations on the classic G&T. On my last visit, I had an espresso martini and it was excellent! I was pleasantly surprised at how good they made it. I have yet to order a drink that I did not like. They have a small parking lot out front. There's also street parking. Given that it's near a few bars, parking can be difficult during peak times. Wicklow Heights is great for a stop on a bar crawl or for a chill afternoon with friends.

Visited for the first time for their Galentine's themed bingo night. It was super crowded when I…read morehad arrived around 6:30 so if you're trying to get a table I'd recommend coming suuuper early. They have happy hour until 7pm. The drinks weren't bad and I think they have a nice selection of cocktails to choose from. The rundown for bingo: It was supposed to start at 7pm, but I don't think we started until almost 7:30. Not sure if that's normal or if it was just that night. They'll make an announcement for you to go grab a bingo board from designated spots and it was quite a fight to get a board, which is one per person. I think we played a total of 5-6 rounds with breaks in between and each round is a different goal (e.g. regular bingo, making an X, blackout, etc) with a different prize and the prizes gradually get bigger. Since the tables were all full, lots of people were either sitting around the stage, or on the turf, or standing on the back patio. Parking was super crowded. They have a lot which was definitely filled so I had to resort to street/neighborhood parking. They made announcements that if you park at the establishment next door you WILL get towed (they had tow trucks coming in the whole night I feel)

This place was recommended by a friend of mine who used to live in Houston. We came with a group of…read moremy girls for my Bach trip. The service was amazing here! The atmosphere was great and we loved all the decor they had. After some drinks and photos, we made our way downstairs to leave. But one of my friends noticed behind the red curtains was a small speakeasy. The staff allowed us to go inside to take photos since it looked very aesthetic! After the photos, the owner of the establishment gave us free shots, and told us to come back the next morning for brunch. She was so kind! Sadly we had other plans the next day, otherwise we would definitely be back! Highly recommend! Such a great spot for a date night or girls night!

I tend not to make negative reviews. But this was such an egregious experience I feel I have no…read morechoice. From the drinks, to the service, to the extra surcharges tacked on to the bill, I'm not just disappointed, I'm mad. For a lounge touting itself as a higher end experience, the menu is plain, one dimensional, and predominantly flavored vodka driven. For 18$ you get something more akin to a juice than a cocktail which is a rough position to be in when bars like Anvil, Jethros and Fairfax are basically within walking distance. Service was a two tap order take. We had to go to the bar-top for our check (the server was inside on her phone). I probably could've called it a wash but the tilting point for me came with the automatic 20% gratuity AND a non-cash surcharge totaling nearly 50$ ... I cannot warn against this place enough. Go to another local bar. Go to any other bar. You could not pay me to come back. And there's not even a view...

My boyfriend took me to this bar after dinner and because of the unassuming exterior of the place,…read moreI didn't know what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised by the cozy interior, and as soon as we walked in, some other patrons told us to get ready to get wasted! Definitely a good sign. Our bartender, Aaron, told us that he was working on revamping the menu, and if we wanted, we could be guinea pigs and try new drink concoctions! I'm always down to try something new, so we both agreed, and wow! Everything was so good! I don't remember the names of all the drinks, but Aaron asked about our flavor preferences and hit it out of the park with what he gave us. 10/10 would go again the next time I'm in Houston.

We decided try this spot with the unassuming external appearance. A simple gray A-frame building with minimal parking. Arriving within an hour of opening allowed us to park next to the building in their private lot. The interior was very inviting with lounge, bar and table seating options. Our choice was the bar and really enjoyed the conversation with the bartender. He made suggestions from the established drink menu but was equally comfortable creating something unique for your taste. The drinks were outstanding but there are no bar food options. We really enjoyed our outing to the Rabbit Hole and look forward to future visits.

We were able to get a reservation for the patio as the inside was completely booked up. When we arrived we were amazed at the gorgeous lights and festivity! The opening weekend was without heaters but fortunately it wasn't too cold. The servers mentioned that they were bringing in heaters in a few days. We enjoyed perusing their holiday themed menu and settled on our orders. I decided on the Carol Singer and J opted for the Coconut hot chocolate. I was happy to try these warmer drinks on a nippy day and they were both delicious! I loved the spiced warm cider taste of rage Carol Singer, though the standout of the night was the Coconut hot chocolate. The whipped cream was perfect for giving the hot chocolate Christmas feel while still getting a kick from the rum and amaretto mix. Our servers were attentive and very accommodating. They did inform us of another party coming in to the same table 2 hours after our reservation which was very reasonable and we appreciated the heads up. I've also had the chance to stop by outside the Christmas season and was blown away by the tasty drinks and reasonable prices. I will certainly be back here next year for the 2026 Miracle at Johnny's!
