The patio outside was really cute and cozy, the various seating areas is really great because you get a different feel from different angles. Our server recommended a Mexican lager.. it was SO GOOD! Try the lager!! My only gripe, the downtempo music changed to club music around 12am and got much louder. My date and I had to raise our voices to continue our conversation, we wanted to take our drinks outside but were told the patio closes at 11 :( We got lucky as the crowd was really thin but most weekends our server said it gets packed.. it's such a small place, I can't imagine what it would be like with 100 people inside!!

Yes, it's hot outside but c'mon, will the entire clientale die within 30 seconds of heatstroke? Fine, no worries, let it pass, walk in just wanting to grab a quick drink at the bar, AGAIN, accosted by the hostess that DEMANDS that I go back to her command center to talk to her, whereupon she really happily informs me that I can't even stand at the bar to have a drink and she would reluctantly put me on the bar waiting list which would be a minimum of one and a half hours... to grab a drink at the bar. tldr; AVOID unless of course, you love being judged at a low rent tiki bar...

The neon lights, ambiance, and overall vibe inside are so good. I went with friends on a night they had a live band, and that was definitely the highlight. It's such a cool spot to discover up and coming Richmond artists in a really fun and intimate setting. Even when it started sprinkling outside, we stayed and still had the best time. The beef sliders were great, the service was super friendly, and both the indoor and outdoor seating have their own vibe. Definitely excited to come back this summer.

The ambience is sophisticated, intimate, and effortlessly alluring. Sitting toward the back of the restaurant created such a dark and sexy atmosphere that was perfect for a relaxed date night. Knowing how much my husband enjoys a well-crafted Old Fashioned, I knew he would appreciate the cocktail selection, and he certainly did. I opted for the Caribbean Queen, which was fresh, vibrant, and beautifully balanced with just the right touch of a delightful kick. Jasper's offered exactly the kind of atmosphere we were looking for--elegant, intimate, and inviting. Between the sophisticated setting and delicious cocktails, it was a wonderful first experience, and one we'll certainly remember.

Only mushrooms and kimchi. Several people from out group ordered the burger and wing appetizers and all said it was good. So the food was 4 stars, but service was a 2 stars. The waitress Katie was so short with us, seldom came back to check to see if we needed anything once food was dropped off. I wanted a second cocktail and had to wave down another waitress who did not acknowledge me, but did talk to our waitress in the side to get her to go to our table. Side note: Happy Hour drink specials are good, but a very limited selection for food specials. Music was a bit loud so it was hard to hold a conversation.

Her set started at 10pm. We were probably there from 10:30pm-1am. The bouncer was incredibly sweet and checked our IDs at the door. We walked up a flight of stairs to get to the lounge. From my understanding, this lounge is open on Fridays and Saturdays only so far. Tickets for the show we were going for were $7. We didn't pay at the door, they put the $7 ticket on our drink tab. It was pretty packed, but the three of us were able to find a seat. It took a while to order drinks, but it feels like they're still figuring the best system out. My friend and I ordered the hibiscus spritz which was incredible. It was such a huge and delicious serving. I highly recommend ordering this. Our other friend got a regular old fashioned that she enjoyed. Do know with the music, it gets a bit loud so you end up screaming at each other. It was really good music so it was totally fine. At some points people made the tiny elevated section where the DJ was a dance floor. While this isn't a dance spot, there is a tiny space to dance. There is lots of seating available here, so even though it was crowded, it was never shoulder to shoulder packed (unless you tried to dance). The decor is unique with exposed brick and hieroglyphics matching the Egyptian restaurant below. I'm excited to return to try more delicious cocktails from their menu and see other DJs.

There were lots of questions about the menu that she didn't know, but she was so good about it and found out what we needed to know. The ambiance/decor is very nice and upscale looking. The menu is very limited. There were 4 entrees, and maybe 8 tapas/appetizers. We had the roasted cauliflower (good and comes with a chili like sauce), empanadas ( order comes with 3; they were very dry and served with a lime creama), garlic shrimp (order comes with 5; they were ok), Airline chicken with risotto (very good and flavorful. Risotto was cooked perfectly), burratta salad (lots of arugula, but so much burratta or anything else). For drinks we ordered passion fruit margaritas and lemon drops. Both were delicious! As of right now, I'm not a fan of the restaurant, but maybe as time goes on things will fall into place.
