It's a small dive bar, but in the coolest way -- dim, tropical, quirky, and full of character. The atmosphere alone makes you want to stay awhile. I ordered the Painkiller and the Zombie, and both were very strong and very delicious. Exactly the kind of tiki cocktails you hope for when you walk into a place like this. They don't have a big food menu -- mostly chips and salsa, maki rolls, and edamame -- but we tried the Hawaiian‑style chips and salsa with taro chips and pineapple salsa, and it was such a good combo. Light, unique, and perfect to snack on with drinks. Overall, it's a great spot for strong cocktails and a laid‑back night out. I'll definitely be back.

I love that this place has little bit of Mexican food mixed with some Polish and American. For me the service is great, because I think when I'm at a bar, I like when I'm not interrupted every 10 min. I also don't mind going to the bar and placing an order if the bartender/server is not around. The place is very cute and well kept, I love all the decorations and it does feel like an upscale bar without the upscale prices. In the summer, the patio is a great addition.

They were definitely not prepared for the crowd of couples. A few minutes after we sat down, a waitress who was not ours came by and asked if we had ordered already. We said no, thinking that she would help get us started. Instead, she took my boyfriend's menu to hand to her table. This left a bad impression on us. Food wise, it was delicious and all food came out in a timely manner. They were being pretty strict about only being seated for 1.5 hours max due to the rush. Our waitress was fine, checked in on us in a timely manner. I love the interior design of this place, and it looks really nice in their patio. I don't think I'll be coming back though, at least not during any nights I know it'll be crowded.

Have to say it's not much to look at. The drinks are the main thing. Basic looking bar in a mostly residential area. It's the second home for a lot of regulars who live around here. That makes sense. Not a whole lot else is around. Of course they won't ever have to worry about parking. It's about $7 for a basic cocktail. Whiskey and mixed with whatever. Basic. There's free popcorn. Good prices compared to other bars. It's located on Higgins at Major. The closest transportation center is the Jefferson Park station.

The reason we love this place is because the place is nice and modern with a nice comfy decor, they have an EXCELLENT whiskey and bourbon selection amongst all other spirits, but mostly because of the SERVICE! The staff, from the owner to each of the bartenders, they treat you like a long time friend. The drinks pack a punch and the ambiance is always upbeat. They strive to provide different events weekly and even nightly. They have a back patio for private parties or you can host your event inside. This place is just great, but Uber since parking is street parking and common sense dictates you should. See you there, and let's enjoy a drink!

The new owners really out did themselves with the decor inside. Full Bar for you to order a drink and food as well. It gets pretty crowded even during the week. The ambience that night was chilled and with good energy. The guy that took my order and off he went into the back. It took him a minute to return. It was all good because the energy was nice. I ordered the 6 wings and was a little disappointed. Burnt on the outside and not fully done in the inside. There is other food choices on the menu as well. I should have followed my mind and ordered just the fries. I have been to other hookah places, and this seems to be the only one that serves cocktail drinks and food. They have many hookah flavors for you to choose. I went with a very mild tropical flavor which was really delicious. Well, needed after a stressful day at work. I heard that they no longer have the $10.00 Hookah Happy Hour. Which is a bummer because that was a good deal. I guess all good things must come to an end. Now that they have built up their business. Nice ambience with some good vibes.
