First, you line up at the entrance, then you ring the doorbell, but only once as the sign warns. You are greeted through a peekaboo window in the door where they ask your party size. You are then taken in groups of three or less to a vestibule where they lock down your phones so you can't take any pictures and then you are seated in the dark and moody atmosphere. They don't split checks, so be ready to order as a group. There's a 90 minute time limit as well, so don't dawdle. Highlights of our order included the Butter Pecan Old Fashioned (so good!) and the Banana Daiquiri. We stayed for the full 90 minutes and when we left there was a long line waiting to get in. Go early if you want to get one of the few seats inside or be prepared to wait. We loved our experience.

This was a really cool speakeasy!…read more You can only make reservations on certain days, and we happened to be in the area when they allowed for them on a Thursday. We ended up checking in at the restaurant next door and they told us where to find it and to let them know that we had a reservation. (Not sure if everyone has to do this extra step or if you can just go here) We let the gentleman working know that we had a reservation when he popped out from the peep hole. We first went into a very small room full of books and he explained the process and locked our phones in a bag. They take this seriously. You were not going to have access to your phone. I'm sure the material was made to protect it from getting anything sneaky through. They do, however, tell you to keep the phone with you so it is always in your posession. The inside was quite beautiful. It felt like a speakeasy, quiet and through magical doors where you are not meant to be found. We were seated at the bar and were immediately given water. I first started with a raspberry mojito. I forgot what my husband got the first time. For his second drink he tried their version of the Grasshopper which claimed to taste just like mint and chip ice cream. He was absolutely blown away and said "Wow!" every time he took a sip. I tried it and it was spot on! I didn't want another alcoholic beverage so I got their mocktail version of an Orange Julius and it was delicious! We told the bartender (I forgot his name) how amazing the drinks were and especially the Grasshopper and he got into it and told us how it is made and what processes they go through. It actually has milk but you would never know by looking at it. Service was great. When we left we had to hand the bartenders our bagged phones so they could use a machine to unlock it. I told them this felt like Fort Knox. Too funny.

My husband and I waited patiently for two years for the perfect time to make reservations and we finally did it. My birthday celebration month here at Six Test did not disappoint. We did the 2nd seating they are spaced 6 and 6 for a total of 12 per night. We were greeted by a super nice young man from Cambria. He wore a suit and offered us a seat and water while we waited. Once our party was seated it was as if we were watching a synchronized dance. In total I would say we had 15 courses! I had read some reviews that the plates were small,and yes they were, however they needed to be. We were stuffed when we left. There were some plates I could have had more for sure, but I believe this is what it's supposed to be. We weren't sure so we did have a late breakfast and waited to eat before our dinner. We did not do the wine pairing because we didn't know if it would be what we were looking for. We wanted the food aspect of the evening to be the star and it was. Everything was presented with such elegance and methodical precision. That alone was impressive. I read some reviews that the staff was not talkative or friendly. Wrong! I asked questions and they answered. Even so, the first round of choices was which cup we wanted our first course. I picked a pink depression goblet. They filled it with the most delicious tomato celery bonito I have ever tasted. The chef serving us and giving us our glasses said he made a few but the pink one was his favorite. So of course I chose it. Next we had oysters with a green strawberry kosho. Delicious! Our chef explained these would be the freshest oysters we would ever enjoy. They were literally caught less than 24 hrs. He explained most places get deliveries etc and therefore are not this fresh. Like wow very impressive. I could have had a tray of those. We also had smoked trout, wagyu beef, tuna, smoked pork, black cod, pork loin, duck, and then also desserts. I definitely don't want to spoil your experience but let's just say you will not get this level of goodness anywhere else. Very very unique to this team of chefs. Everything was so good and fresh. Next let me add that not only was it complete magic to watch them move around this beautiful space so seamlessly, I finally had to ask the chefs presenting our fourth course if they were the lead chefs. To this their answer set the tone for my entire experience. Both chefs had a smirk and pointed to the chef who offered us our glasses, gave us our first tasting! It was Ricky! This man was the owner and head chef but you would never ever know it. That alone impressed us all (party of 4). No ego. Ricky shared how proud he was of personally knowing the fishermen and how fresh his seafood was. He was proud of his cups, and lived the depression glass on his tray. He said they all had a story. Never once was he about himself. The team at Six test is not just a team of chefs but a family. You could totally feel it. My husband and I will definitely be back. It's obviously not something we could afford to do every week but definitely a treat we will definitely plan on every time we're in the area. This team of chefs work so hard to give you that magical experience. It's about the food for sure but also the quiet magic they have come to create. Thank you to the team at Six test. Thank you Ricky! Your chefs love working there and you can totally tell by the way you have created this wonderful space.

I've decided there are two kinds of Michelin restaurants. The first spends the entire evening…read morereminding you it's Michelin starred. The second quietly gets on with dinner and lets you figure it out yourself. Six Test Kitchen belongs firmly in the second camp. It's a tiny room. A dozen seats wrap around one open kitchen, so everyone sees everything. That should be chaos. It isn't. No shouting, no crashing pans, no television drama. Just cooks orbiting each other so smoothly I caught myself watching a man spoon sauce onto a plate with the focus you'd give a guitar solo. I have never been that focused on anything, including merging onto a highway. Everybody slows down in there without being told to. Nobody made a rule. Nobody held a meeting. Within a few minutes the whole room is whispering like it's a library with a tasting menu. Ask the staff about a wine and you're suddenly touring vineyards on the other side of the planet. Ask about an ingredient and you get a story instead of a speech. By dessert I figured they could explain quantum physics, provided somebody opened a Riesling first. I stopped trying to remember every course somewhere around the middle. That's a compliment. I just accepted that these people had a better plan for my evening than I did. A few dishes survived the amnesia anyway. The bluefin tuna proved just how hard it is to do something simple. The duck showed up in several forms, including a warm brioche stuffed with confit that weighed roughly nothing. I now believe butter has discovered antigravity. The duck liver ran so smooth and rich my brain filed it under dessert and refused to correct the error. The fifty-day aged Japanese wagyu arrived and politely ruined beef for the foreseeable future. People love telling you this stuff melts in your mouth. This one had better things to do. It raised my standards, thanked me for my time, and left every future steak to explain itself. Somewhere out there a perfectly respectable ribeye is about to get a deeply unfair comparison. None of that is its fault. With the final savory dish, the chef came over carrying a handcrafted wooden box and opened it the way you'd show off family photos. Inside sat knives forged from recycled ball bearings by a bladesmith in Athens, Georgia. He handed me one to use on the duck. I held it with the nervous respect reserved for museum artifacts and someone else's newborn, then spent ten minutes concentrating on not becoming a line item in the restaurant's insurance paperwork. The service deserves its own paragraph. My water glass never dropped below half full, and I didn't once catch anyone filling it. Empty plates vanished before I finished admiring them. Each course landed the moment I was ready for it, which I found mildly unsettling, since I didn't know I was ready. By the end, the whole night felt like a ballet where the audience gets fed. I left already negotiating with myself about how soon is too soon to go back.

Everyone is nice, welcoming, and makes you feel right at home. On this visit, we shared the Shishito Peppers and Chopped Salad, along with a few cocktails. I ordered the Fried Chicken, which was the Wednesday special, and my wife chose the Shrimp & Grits. Both the salad and Shishito Peppers were on point. The Fried Chicken came out hot and fresh, and they definitely give you plenty. The flavor was good, but most of the seasoning was in the crust rather than the meat itself. Without the crust, the chicken didn't have quite enough seasoning for my taste. That said, the crust was crispy, flavorful, and definitely did its job. Now, the Shrimp & Grits were a HIT! Buttery deliciousness and a straight-up flavor bomb! The grits were perfectly cooked, and the shrimp were tender, buttery, and delicious. Definitely a winner. Whether you're popping in for a cocktail and some snacks or sitting down for a full meal, either way, you won't be disappointed. The Hatch has a great atmosphere, good food, and friendly service. We always enjoy our visits, and this one was no different. I highly recommend The Hatch!
