Cool vibe. The cocktail I had was labor intensive and delicious. Could easily fetch twice this price in the big city. Great service. You can buy a bottle of their spirits to go.

Amazing craft cocktails and a KILLING happy hour. We will most definitely be back. Incredible &…read morefriendly staff. I wish I could give more stars.

I needed a good cold stiff one in an, out of the way place with low light and freezing air…read moreconditioning. I was on a mission to escape the hot humid tropicalesqe afternoon that is a Galveston Texas August day. Daiquiri Time Out popped up while spinning the Roulette Wheel that is Yelp. So,with door code in hand I headed out. Taking note of another Yelpers recommendation to arrive early as the place is small and fills up,we did. On the far edge of downtown in a non descript building this bar, billed as a speakeasy, sat. The sidewalk was melting under my feet as I walked towards the door. No entry code needed. After my eyes adjusted,what I saw wasn't what I expected. Dirty Dancing+Saturday Night Fever+Ms Kitty's Gun Smoke saloon had a strange feel. Ok, let's go. We, as the first guest of the soon to be 5'oclock crowd approached the bartender, alone behind a just right mixing station. After perusing a menu of specialties and being guided through a few questions,we ordered. The good- I found an interesting little place to beat the summer heat and enjoy a decent drink. Not so good- not as billed. Overall no quirkiness or unique qualities to write home about. No snackes served with each drink as described by others. Once the place started filling up and I started my second adult beverage,things were looking up. Go,but with lowered expectations.

Great experience here, the food was delicious! I had a reservation for 7:15 but since it was so…read morebusy I did have to wait until 7:55 before I was seated. I was getting pretty bummed but I was patient and understanding. The manager (I believe he was the manager I didn't catch his name but he was in a red shirt and spoke with an accent,) was very apologetic and helpful. He updated me often about the status of our table and treated us to an appetizer to make up for the wait. Food was hot and so tasty. I will be back :)

We were in Galveston for Memorial Day weekend and we came here on a Sunday night…read more They were shortstaffed so thank goodness I made a reservation so they seated us right away but if you did not make a reservation, they told you it was a 25 minute wait even though there were seats available. So other than the service being a little slow, the place was really cute. The ambience is amazing. I love the big chandelier. It gives you old-time rich vibes. Their menu has different options. They do have a vegetarian portion. The samosas were kind of like beef, taco mimosas that's what it taste like to me. They're red fish was really good cause the crab crusted on the outside and the sauce mixed together. I definitely recommend getting that if you like fish. I got it with a side of mac & cheese. It does come with veggies, but they let you change out the side. My mom got the margarita pizza and I've had pizza for sure but they do have five or six options of pizzas to choose from. And all the best thing was the bread pudding. Definitely get that save some room. It was warm with ice cream and the perfect bread pudding. I've ever had get it. There is street parking after six. It's free. There's a garage parking too. I don't know how much it costs. Besides the service, everything was really good. It took them a while to fill up our waters, but I did notice they were shortstaffed.

The Rooftop Bar is a great place to get some tasty, upscale bar food and drinks. The food options…read moreI've had so far have all been delicious. The Wagyu burgers are very good and so is the crab cake. The drinks are top-notch. The bartender who's there in the later hours is so amazing, so friendly, so funny. You can tell he puts a lot of love into making your drinks. You can sit outside and have a beautiful view of Galveston Island, or inside at a table for two or more. The Caribbean music they play adds a nice touch. It's a great place for a business lunch, a late night with your friends, or if you're staying at the hotel, a nightcap or two would do.

Drinks were good and the rooftop was pretty but I am not sure if I would be back. There were a…read morecouple of drunk women being rowdy that night & apparently some other drama with different customers? When we arrived, we sat down & someone came up and told us that she'd be with us shortly. Well she said that 2-3 more times but after about 20 minutes of waiting we decided to just walk up to the bar and order ourselves. (The bar was lonely but most of the seats on the patio were occupied by friend groups). We had closed out on the first round of drinks with my card & had signed and tipped it. Then we ordered more drinks but with a different tab and card BUT at the end of the night, we were being charged for all the drinks, including the ones we had previously paid & already tipped for. The new tab that was opened only had one drink on it, and the bartender had reopened our previous tab and added the second round to there. When we brought this up to the bartender he was denying that we had already paid the first tab even though we clearly remembered signing the receipt and handing it back to him. He said he triple checked their system and did not see that tab and was ensuring us that it was not paid (the credit card already showed the charge). Finally, a different bartender that didn't even serve us somehow found the receipt. That was kind of crazy because he ensured us that he looked for it EVERY where and there was no sign of it and that he didn't recall us paying & signing the receipt for the drinks. If you do end up giving this place a try, make sure to ask for an itemized receipt so you know exactly what you are paying for and that there aren't any additional charges like they tried to push on us.
