The owner was in the bathroom area at the time and told him no. My husband respectfully asked why, since the place was still open and he genuinely needed to go. Instead of responding professionally, the owner became visibly aggressive and told him not to keep asking or he would send him back "in pieces." What makes this even more concerning is that this area is filled with tourists. It is definitely not worth visiting this place and risking your safety.. be aware of this " OWNER" who just hangs out in the bathroom. That's him the one looking at his phone!!!

I also highly recommend the Jugo Antigripal; it was vibrant, fresh, and perfectly executed. On the experimental side, the Bellini offered a unique, 'different' twist that was enjoyable, though the Sea Breeze missed the mark for my palate. I did try another one with the sorbet in it, but forgot the name. It was decent. Ambiance was nice. At one point they dimmed the lights to the point only lighting was from outside. We were sat at a large communal table. Music was loud but still vibey. Bathroom is super clean and nice. Basically gender neutral. Still, for the Long Island alone, this is a must-visit.

I say seated with parenthesis because most people end up standing here but we got lucky that a couple was leaving as we were right next to them after being asked our drink orders. It's kind of a weird system that they have and I think the staff didn't realize we didn't have our drink orders taken yet and asked the people behind us for theirs which was slightly annoying. It was a bit chaotic so I can see why it happened, but I do think they need a slightly better system. Anyways, the drinks were excellent and I love that they gave us a little small snack that included crickets (which I hadn't tried before yet). The vibes in here are really nice too. I love the dim lighting and the almost rock/clay atmosphere. The bathroom area is smaller than I was expecting but it was ok. I'd definitely return!

Handshake Speakeasy is worth the hype! I managed to snag a Friday night reservation in the basement…read moreroom. The interior was dimly lit and moody, and the staff would yell a welcome every time patrons entered the space. They also did the same once people started leaving. For my first drink, I chose the Mexi-Thai. Handshake is known for their clarified cocktails and I was shocked by how complex the flavors were in this clear beverage. It was almost savory with makrut lime coconut, tomato, and basil oil. For my second drink, I chose the Banana Split. This one was much sweeter with rum, banana, and a blend of sherries. It came topped with a chocolate lego filled with banana ganache, which was insanely decadent and tasty. Our reservation was limited to 90 minutes, which was enough time for me. Overall, loved this spot!

Although our group did not book ahead, we got there right as they opened and only had to wait about 30 min to get seated - but it was also a Monday so maybe that had something to do with it... Aside from the entrance being anticlimactic compared to the bars I have been to, I think the drinks were quite delicious. I got the Earl Grey and the Once Upon in Oaxaca. The first one was honestly my favorite. It was such a refreshing drink that was a really fun take on Earl Grey tea. I really liked the lemongrass straw as well. Drinking out of the straw vs drinking the drink directly made a huge difference in flavor, which I thought was particularly unique. The Once Upon in Oaxaca was slightly smoky and definitely a more liquor forward drink. Perfect for a second cocktail. I would have liked it to be just a tad more smoky with a thicker mouthfeel. Overall, however, it was a pleasant experience, but there are definitely some other bars I'd recommend over this one...

As I was looking for this location on Yelp, I realized that there are bunch of La Botica around the town but I am, of course, writing specifically for this location. La Botica is a tiny bar on the street. I was sitting on the street outside and it was a great choice. Perfect location to just chill and people watch as they pass by. It is really a small place so there are limited outdoor seats available but if you can, please sit outside! Great service as well - I believe the lady who tended us was called Melody and she was just amazing. I did not know anything about Mezcal and she offered to bring out samples so that I could try before ordering a full shot. I did not order the full size at the end because Mezcal seems to be too much for my taste. I got Mezcal Cocktail instead. It was very refreshing and good! They have all different types of Mezcal so come try all if you are into Mezcal.
