    Such a neat find! I drove out to check out open mic hosted by the SOL Collective. What a talented group of people! Staff at Lacuna are so warm and friendly, great tea options. The violinist De_Ray_Luna was unbelievable! Lolly, AzPoet hat a great message. Loved the host GJ, what a sweetheart! Happy birthday GJ!

    First time trying kava and I absolutely loved my experience here. Staff is so welcoming and the vibes were just there!! Sergio is so kind and made our experience 10x better. Will definitely be coming back here.

    This spot is my happy place. I love this kava bar and the kavatenders that work there. Kenzie and Jamie rock!!! They always know how to make my day. The kavatenders are also great at explaining what kava and kratom is and what they offer. Overall - delicious kava and kratom mock-tails, great vibes, fun events, and excellent service 100%. I always look forward to either work, chill, listen to live music, or even dance at Lacuna. It's also a cute spot for a date night. I highly recommend to stop by if you're ever in the area!

    Kind staff, great vibe. Ive been more than once and every time ive enjoyed my experience

    long time fan of Lacuna! found this place several years ago when looking for alternatives to alcohol. also went to their grand opening in Sedona, beautiful location and store. it had been awhile since i've last visited and was in the area. decided to walk over and stop in and was not disappointed. the new downtown Lacuna location is absolutely beautiful and very vibey. similar to the old one but more space, love! the bartender was very friendly and made me a delicious Prickly Pear Limeade with red kratom and i paired it with a side of raw Vanuatu kava. was very relaxed while i hung out there and will definitely be returning for happy hour! my only concern/wish is to have a nutritional menu available for those who are conscious about calories, sugar etc. consumed. would be nice to have that information. overall i've met some really cool open minded people through Lacuna and am looking forward to returning more often!

    Awesome kava tender Josh!!

    Awesome tender Josh, and others were super sweet. The drinks are amazing, as well as the ambiance. We had the prickly pear, mango, strawberry, and peach kratom - all super tasty. They had a live dj one night, plus they are right next to an amazing pizza place and Thai restaurant. Tell them Steve and Lea sent you if you read this.

    What are the affects of kava on breastfeeding and the baby?

    Hi! Thank you so much for asking. Unfortunately there hasn't been much if any medical study on consuming kava while pregnant or breastfeeding. I would recommend talking to your doctor or possibly a naturopathic doctor for more information. Sorry… Read more

    What a unique experience! We've been to the train bar in Arcadia before and when we saw a collab…read morewith chilte we had to check it out. We got to wren and wolf around 7:10 and they had our "tickets" for us. When we got in front of carry on, we were the first ones in line. We expected to get on sooner because the tickets said 7:30 but I guess the time to actually go inside, not when takeoff is. We sat down and got welcome drinks and peanuts. About 10 minutes after they started to take drink orders. I'm a lightweight so I didn't get anything but my husband got the chilte collab drink. It tasted a lot like tomato and was super unique. The tuna tostada was great alongside the pepper on the side. We then got mole which was the star of the show. The mole was so unique and spicy, I'd never had a mole like that before. The flight was 4d in that it moved like a real airplane. They then come around for martini cart service. They shake it in front of you so we had to try the dirty martini togarashi. It was super unique and perfectly salty. We then got the chilte taco which was good but nothing special. The dessert however was amazing! It tasted like a cheesecake. We then "landed" - it was faster than I thought, as it's 1.5 hours but settling in and getting everyone inside takes a while. The bathroom was a cool airplane looking bathroom, but huge. The downside was that it was quite pricey, and the train bar has a booking cost but it goes to your drinks so I'll likely do that before coming here again.

    Carry On was a great experience for our bachelorette party (or any sort of special occasion,…read morereally)! We had a 7:30pm flight to Mexico City and arrived about 10 minutes early which ended up being perfect because there was already a line forming outside. You really feel the 70s vibes from the moment you step onto the "airplane". The team did an amazing job with the ambiance and you can tell a lot of thought was put into every aspect of the space. It's such a fun immersive experience. Server and bartenders were friendly and fun, and the vibes all around were just super happy. I loved the rolling martini cart that came around! The only reason I'm knocking a star is because when we booked (a party larger than 5) I emailed with the team there for our reservation. They mentioned the option to upgrade the reservation to a $100/person meal option which I declined. After we were seated small bites were passed around the plane. We noticed every table received it, so I truly thought it was part of the standard experience. It wasn't until the 3rd round of small bites went around that I realized we will probably be charged for the full service experience (which we were). Because this was a new experience for us, my suggestion would be to confirm the experiences with our table prior to passing around offerings. We aren't familiar with what to expect, so we didn't know it wasn't standard until it was too late. Otherwise, we had a great experience!

Initially the bill came with a 10% discount for the trouble, then another staff member said it was comped. Thank you so much, very good and reasonable. The waiter was super cool and knowledge so I definitely don't blame them, it was an overall sorted experience. Lastly, please beware the "Rose Garden" is not just an aesthetic theme, it's heavily rose scented, like your nana's floral lotion. I guess many people don't notice cause I can't find mention of this but it gave me a major headache. There should definitely be a warning for this especially since many people don't like the whole perfume isle thing and some are just allergic. I wanted to like it a lot but it was just off this time.

It was busy, but not packed, which made the service stand out more than it should have. I had to ask for water twice, never got a refill, and overall felt largely ignored--minimal eye contact, no real warmth, just an impersonal feel that didn't match the space. It felt like a place that may be a bit of a victim of its own success--popularity has grown, but delivery hasn't fully kept pace. Part of the appeal here is the permanent taco truck outside, which I know from past visits is excellent, and I love the truck's outspoken, unapologetic support for immigrants. That said, the cocktail itself was excellent. I was specifically looking for a coffee-based drink before heading to another event, and the Cambures al Estilo Foster delivered on flavor. It was tiny, though--served in a small stemmed glass, gone in a few sips. It did the job, but some may find the portion underwhelming for the price. No major complaints, but nothing pulling me back either. I'm adding a fourth star on a bit of a hunch--I'd like to think they can dial it back in if I return.
