    Came here for a cocktail before dinner on a Saturday evening around 6 o'clock. Easy parking and the bar was super cute. There was a birthday party while we were there but service was still quick. I had my standard tequila neat, but my husband said the espresso martini was great. I was also super into the 90s playlist that they had going on. I don't live nearby but I will certainly go back if I am in the area.

    Went to Rabbit Hole for a drink before going to dinner. When you walk in the place has nice vibes and friendly mixologists. I asked for something not too sweet and a little boozy, and they recommended a Kentucky Buck. I had never had one, but wow it really hit the spot. It had fresh strawberries and was bourbon based I believe. I'd definitely go back to see what other cocktails I'd like, especially since it's really close by me.

    Found Rabbit Hole searching for a place to grab a drink after dinner. Rabbit Hole had a decent crowd without being shoulder to shoulder. There is plenty of bar seating, tables, and small nook with couches near the Christmas tree. Can't hate a place that played 90's R&B and hip hop. Rabbit Hole is a good neighborhood bar to hang out and sip on some cocktails. A plus for having a private parking lot.

    The Rabbit Hole has been on my list for a while now and I finally got the chance to check it out with some friends on a Saturday night. It's located just off of North Durham Street in the heights slightly away from other heights area bars in a smaller bungalow style building. The inside has a large bar and a few smaller tables. The menu has a variety of fruit forward drinks with a variety of spirits from vodka, gin and tequila. Signature cocktails are on the sweeter end. They also have classic cocktails. Worth noting they have $7 espresso martinis until 7pm. I ordered one of the bartenders signature drinks (off menu) with gin and muddled raspberries which was good but a bit sweet for my taste. My friend really enjoyed the espresso martini. For my second drink I got a dirty gin martini which was good but could have been a bit dirtier with more olive juice. Overall, love the vibes, service was great and drinks were decent. I'm excited to see them continue to refine their menu and offerings. Definitely would come back.

    This new bar in the Heights is amazing! They were still in their opening phases and it was a great experience. The decor is AMAZING! It's a nice space for an intimate night out. The bartender gave a great description of their drinks. The syrups that they use our house made and the drinks to me were perfect. I definitely will be back when I'm in the area.

    We stumbled upon The Rabbit Hole last night and loved every minute of it. The space is intimate and moody -- chandeliers, mirrors, and just the right touch of Halloween charm right now -- making it perfect for date night or cocktails with friends. The bartenders were genuinely friendly and clearly take pride in their craft. Every cocktail was thoughtful and beautifully presented. We tried the Black Potion and the Espresso Martini, both perfectly balanced -- smooth and sophisticated. Add to all that, a fantastic playlist that appealed to everyone. We will be back - likely tonight!

    Nice neighborhood bar! Large bar area with maybe 12 stools but if it gets crowded you will eventually be standing only. The whole place is a nice contemporary classy vibe. Can't wait to come back in the evenings to see both bartenders in their element; cool guys! No food.

    Cozy bar with limited parking, a nicely crafted drink menu. Service is slow so be patient. Fairly priced.

    My wife and I stopped by for HH and we truly enjoyed the experience. Keith the bartender was very friendly, courteous, and welcoming. Great snacks and chill vibe.

The DJ was also bumpin'! Song choices were fitting and he mixed the music seamlessly which made the vibes so much more fun.

For drinks, we got the Situationship, Lychee Lemon Drop, Smooth Operator, and Blue Tile IPA. All the cocktails were very tasty and perfectly balanced.

The vibe is always great, and the team truly went above and beyond for our group. Crysta, the Manager, was wonderful to work with and had our space set up beautifully, including a personalized menu, saxophonist and great DJ, that made the event feel extra special. Cristian, our server, took such great care of us and our guests all night and made sure everything ran smoothly. Jordan, the videographer/content creator, was also capturing special moments throughout the evening, which was such a nice touch. I would 100% recommend Plume for events or a night out, and we will definitely be back!

Here's the…read morebreakdown: Good: Great music, stylish design, and vacation vibes, the kind that transports you straight out of Houston to a beach restaurant in Miami or Cozumel. Food was decent, definitely a fun spot for a casual night out prior to checking out all the bars on the same street Not So Good: - $20 for parking is a bit of a turnoff. Most restaurants, especially on busy streets, still offer complimentary parking or validation. This felt a little out of place. - Automatic 20% gratuity for a table of two was unexpected, especially given that service wasn't particularly great. I usually tip 20% anyway, but it's worth mentioning, especially for those who might not catch it and end up double tipping (like I have in the past). I live nearby, so I'll definitely give them another shot soon after they've had some time to settle in and will try some of their cocktails. Hopefully, the next visit earns that 5th star instead of losing more.

I would like to preface, this isn't a cheap quick dinner restaurant but I highly recommend coming at least once. We found it on the Michelin guide. I love the inside of the restaurant, the layout is fun and intimate. *grilled oysters were good. The flavor from the n'duja with the bits of pecan was something I would never think to pair. Great start! * elk tartare was surprisingly amazing. I always find tartare to be a tough dish to make outstanding and with elk I was hesitant to try but happy we tried it. The plate was cleaned by the time we finished. The cracker was light and paired well with it. * maitake mushrooms were so good that we had to split it evenly so no one got an unfair amount lol The sauce is like a coffee/caramel/chocolately savory sauce. Mt description doesn't do it justice. It's umami but has a caramelized feel. Just get it! * pork chop was the best pork chop we've had. We typically order steak over pork chops at restaurants but heard great things. Tender and flavorful. I will say it's a very rich dish so be mindful of that but highly recommended * grits, this was the dark horse. It was our favorite tapa. We laugh bc we didn't think grits would be the fav, out of all the amazing dishes. But the beef cheek underneath the silky grits... YUM! I'll be craving them *basque cheesecake was good but not the best we've had. But it's also hard to compete with all the other dishes we had

We love elevated tapas style restaurants so we had to see what it was all about! Unfortunately, the food just didn't wow me at all. It was fine, but fine doesn't cut it for this price. Food: - Duck Liver: 6/10 I LOVE pate so this one was extra disappointing. They pureed it so much that it lost all texture and was like a butter. If that was the only thing off, it would be fine. But the other flavors in there just didn't work for me. The sweetness and oiliness that they added were too overpowering that I could hardly taste the liver itself. The bread was great though. - Elk Tartare: 10/10 I'm not the biggest fan of tartare but this was the best tartare I've ever had and the best dish of the night! The sunflower cracker was amazing; it gave a nice toasty nutty flavor that contrasted with the yuzu underneath. I love all the different textures going on in this dish, which is why I like it better than other tartares which tend to be only chewy/slimy/wet. - Maitake: 8/10 Cooked really nicely. Perfectly crisp and flaky. Just a little too sour for me. - Okra: 7/10 The Gouda sauce was interesting but the okra itself was nothing special. It was nicely roasted and charred. - Pork chop: 6/10 As the main dish of the night, this was quite disappointing. No interesting flavors whatsoever. You can't really taste the chamomile dusting unless you lick it directly. The jowl that they spread on top didn't taste like anything distinct. In fact, I didn't like the texture of it because it was crunchy in a way that felt like I was crunching through little bits of tiny bone... - Basque cheesecake: 9/10 The dessert rounded out the evening nicely. Solid cheesecake. No complaints. Service: Honestly too "attentive" to the point that it was annoying and disruptive. They would interrupt us every 10 minutes it felt like. And the food came out pretty slowly.

Personally main dinning space looked dark so bar was ideal. We tried 4 different types of specialty cocktails, if you come at happy hour they are $3 off. These are craft cocktails, extremely extremely delicious. My favorites were the cocktail with beet and the cocktail with coconut and turmeric. Food was fantastic!! I loved how they served it in waves and not all at the same time. It felt more like a culinary experience. We had the cucumber salad which is a must. Followed by corn, which is good and totally unlike anything I've ever had before. Then the red fish which was sooooo good. Then the pork shoulder with coconut rice and together that was to die for. Plus the salt and vinegar potato's which I'd gladly have as a snack anytime. So so good!! Would come back honestly every week if I could!
