But then as the night went on the girl became busy with tidying up the place. The guy bartender totally was dismissive. We had to uncomfortably wave at him because he was too busy entertaining everybody else aside from us. Not a, "are you guys ok? Can I get anything else for you?" Nope, we became an afterthought. He'd rather entertain people who can't order a proper dry martini correctly. I dunno, maybe he deemed We didnt belong there. I guess thats how they weed out people they dont want going in there. Im extremely disappointed. I had high hopes of this place being classy, but then ended up realizing they'd rather entertain pretentious patrons. Find me elsewhere. I'll just be one less patron they have to think about huh?

I tried a square slice with pepperoni and hot honey and it was excellent, just the right balance of sweet and heat, and full of flavor. I also had a round slice with banana peppers and mushrooms, which was tasty but the square definitely stood out as my favorite. The space itself has indoor seating and a bar, plus an ice cream shop inside (unfortunately it was closed by the time I finished my pizza). The area is beautiful and this place makes for a great neighborhood pit stop if you're exploring West Village.

Located in the basement level of an1880's Victorian mansion. Vibe is cozy, cool, eclectic. Drinks are crafted to complement the scent notes of their perfumes. Menu changes seasonally. Ellie was bartending this evening (and she's excellent). Two fav drinks were Land of Origin and Dust & Clay. Small bites like nuts (specially made for them by the Detroit Nut Co.) and charcuterie boards are available. Take home items like perfumes, candles, spirits, and apparel are available. Parking is easy and mostly free on the street. Special little place in a great neighborhood. Make reservations for the tastings or walk in. It's small, but they're super kind here and will make room for you if they can.

They have scents for sale, one of the co-owners wrote a book that I highly recommend if you have an interest in science behind spirits. You can make a reservation online that includes your drinks and gratuity. Or take a chance to walk in for a seat at the bar. They've had curated educational experiences that dive tried including the science behind gin, sole gin, and even bartending. I've not tried the scent making but hope to before 2026 changes. I found Castalia during lockdown and bought cubes that helped me make cocktails at home. Been hooked ever since. Worth a visit nonetheless!

Reservations are not required but recommended on weekends. The decor is amazing, 70s lounge vibes. I loveddd the menu and the graphics with each drink. The menu was very unique and everything sounded so interesting and good, I truly could have tried it all. I ordered the Newport smash and it tasted EXACTLY like a cigarette. I absolutely hated it but I respect that fact that they were able to create this drink so well. It's my fault for being an idiot and not realizing I ordered a cigarette flavored drink. I can't believe how well they nailed the flavor. The prices were high but worth it for a drink! Overall, I loved Saksey and will be going back and recommending it!

Saksey's could really be something special, but we did not feel it lived up to the hype…read more Let's start with the positives. Service was great and the staff is knowledgable about the flavor profiles of the various cocktails. They also offer a short "bar snacks" menu and had a few interesting specials. The burger looked delicious. As for the atmosphere....so awkward. The tables are uncomfortably close together and it kills the whole vibe. I do not want to be physically bumping elbows with the people next to me when drinking $22 cocktails. Additionally, they play great music but the volume is so low that all you can hear is EVERY word of the conversations on either side of you. Not our jam, but glad to have had a chance to check it out.

Our server was very welcoming and helped to set up our food order into courses that allowed us a very relaxing evening Cocktails were really good. I had a Last Word and it was very well done. The restaurant is decorated very nicely with warm wood trim. The bar area looked stellar and very French-bistro like. I will sit there next time No so Highs Food was good, but just OK. Between the two of us we had the beet salad, burger and steak tartare. Burger was good, but not the best smash burger that I've had. Beet salad was fine, however the cream cheese was a bit overpowering against the orange oil. It was dying for some citrus. Steak tartare was a bit dry, meaning that a small dab of olive oil would have added to the richness and overall mouth feel. I did not really taste the egg although I did see a dab of yolk on the tartare. Needed a bit of salt also to enhance the taste Menu was small, but it did cover a cross section of French bistro dishes. All in all, I thought it was a bit overpriced. So I will have to consider returning for a full meal. I would come back for a burger and beer at the bar.
