I started out with…read morehappy hour at Still OG Listening and got the $5 drinks and some appetizers like the chicken skewers and fries. The music was really loud and I couldn't hear the conversation of the person with me so the Asian bartender helped us turn down the music a little. It wasn't until mid evening that I realized there was another bar in the back. The bartender told us the cocktails at Alter Ego were more fancy. Definitely instagramworthy! Tried two of the cocktails at Alter Ego. Overall, both have different vibes. Alter Ego is good for a more intimate dark setting date vibe. Service was pretty good at Still OG! The Asian bartender checked in several times and was really nice as well as provided some recommendations on which happy hour specials were most popular which helps since I'm indecisive. The back does seem like a more classy environment and I'd choose this setting over a dive bar any day. The music at still OG that they were playing at the time wasn't my cup of tea, but I'm sure they mix it up from time to time. I would love to hear some oldies!

Came here on a Saturday night for some pre-dinner drinks. I wasn't really sure how it works with…read morethe two businesses in one, but Alter Ego is the speakeasy in the back, with reservations recommended, and Still OG is the walk in bar in the front. The front was pretty full so we checked out Alter Ego first, but they were also full with nothing available until 11pm, so Still OG it was. You grab a spot yourself and then order at the bar. All cocktails are on tap, which actually ended up being great because I was between a few of them and the bartender was able to give me samples of them. We also ended up getting an order of the Chicken skewers, which were super tender and juicy. We were too late on our visit, but they do have a daily happy hour that includes some of the skewers and fries, as well as some drinks and shots. Service was super friendly and vibes and music were great! Cocktails, weren't the best since they were on tap, but still good enough! I would absolutely come back here for a drink and snack though!

I have never once been disappointed with a dish, and I love trying new dishes on their menu. The staff is awesome, and the place has a cool astehtic vibe.

I had hibiscus herbal tea and and an adorable mini waffle cone, filled with crème fraîche, and topped with caviar (honestly never thought I'd like caviar before trying out this place for the first time).

We came here last night (08/15) as a group of 7 to celebrate a friend's birthday, and…read moreunfortunately, the service from our server, Julia, really brought down the entire experience. It took about 20-30 minutes for her to come back and take our food order after we placed our initial drink orders with her. Throughout the dinner, her demeanor felt very passive aggressive, and there were several moments where we felt like we were being given attitude despite everyone in our group being polite. My friend asked for extra olives with his martini and she responded with a rude "Really?" while making a face. It was such an unnecessary reaction to a totally simple and normal request. She also recommended that we order family style, which we followed, but the pacing between courses was extremely slow. We waited around 30+ minutes between our pasta and our protein entrees. For a restaurant that specifically recommends family style dining, the courses should be paced more appropriately so the table isn't sitting around waiting for the next round of food. The birthday cake situation was also frustrating. We had given our cake to the hostess when we arrived, but I guess our server was never notified of that. When I asked about a candle, she said she would bring it out with the birthday dessert, but brought out the restaurant's dessert instead. When she realized we had our own cake, she immediately took the bill back and said she needed to add the cake fee. The issue with that was we weren't asking them to cut or plate the cake. We just wanted to sing Happy Birthday, then have it boxed back up. She had assumed we wanted the cake service without actually asking us, and when we clarified, her response was, "Well, that's why I asked earlier," even though she hadn't actually asked us. None of us gave her a hard time or were anything but polite throughout the evening, which made the repeated attitude especially disappointing. The food wasn't terrible and the drinks were great, the restaurant itself has a nice atmosphere, but spending around $900, which included a 20% automatic gratuity, you'd expect the service to match the price point, even though service should always be good regardless. Unfortunately, the poor service really overshadowed what was supposed to be a nice birthday dinner for my friend and left all of us with a bad taste in our mouths.

I had a drink called the Macintosh which is so refreshing but not overly sweet which I enjoyed.

My husband and I had a baby free night out to celebrate my birthday and haberdasher did not disappoint. We went soon after opening so there was no line but I know they tend to have one later in the evening. We were greeted warmly at the door by the attendant who checked our ids. I was even wished a happy early birthday. When going into the bar, you walk down a staircase into a space that makes you forget you're in downtown San Jose with beautiful reds and burgundy decor. The staff is all smartly dressed; the bartender and bar back were both sweet and funny. I ordered a jack rose (my all time favorite), their seasonal watermelon waltz (this may be a new favorite for me, nice and refreshing) and one of their zero proof cocktails called a Mariposa which was soooo good as well. My husband ordered a couple old fashioned and a watermelon waltz for himself. We had an amazing time and look forward to coming back in the future.

He actually got the corner room, so we had some space to ourselves. And a TV which was great! They were doing some kind of dance class I think, so it was nice having a space to ourselves. Our server was awesome. I got the capsule drink above and it was fine. Not too sweet, but very light. The person helping us out asked for feedback so he actually took that and made me a follow up cocktail. I think it was a play on a manhattan with rye. I did enjoy that beverage. The other drink, I'm pretty sure if what my friend ordered, but don't quote me on that. There were some snacks ordered and more drinks as well. I did not see the bill, so I have no idea what the damage was. We were here for almost three hours, so very fun. Great new bar. Definitely try to get that private room if you can. REVIEW #4078

It wasn't too busy and for Jazz Fest weekend either. Honestly the place didn't look different from what I remembered except for the bar being more well lit. Actually was there a stage in the past? Noticed that they had one for live music, which was cool. We grabbed seats at the bar and got a couple of their specialty cocktails. One was called Feel the Pulse, and the other was called It Takes Two. Both drinks were fruity, tropical, and refreshing. So good you wouldn't know that they'll quickly get under you.

The staff were attentive, gave great menu recommendations, and constantly came by to refill our water. Very spacious dining room. We started with the Queso Fundido, served on a small hot plate with chilis, garlic, and oil on top. It's basically a block of cheese served with chips. Even with the hot plate, it didn't stay gooey for long, but it was a pretty good starter. The Coconut Campachano was creamy and refreshing. It also came with chips, though ours seemed like crumbs from the bottom of the barrel. We got the Trompo tacos and Sautéed Shrimp tacos. Both were tasty, and the tortillas seemed fresh. Decent food, great service, small portions, a bit expensive for what you get and that's before the 4% fee.

My wife is Latina, so we're pretty familiar with authentic Latin/Mexican flavors, and from the moment we walked in, we were a little unsure of what to expect. We completely understand we're in Willow Glen and that Copita is going for a more upscale take, but for us, authenticity and flavor still have to be at the heart of the experience. Our waitress was very friendly and polite, and this review is absolutely not a reflection of her service. However, when we asked about the style of the food, there seemed to be a little hesitation in explaining it, which made us even more uncertain about what we had gotten ourselves into. I don't like bashing restaurants or their food, so I'll simply say that, unfortunately, the highlight of our meal was the chips and salsa. The cocktails, on the other hand, were good and definitely not shy on the alcohol! Also, don't expect large portions. The restaurant is clearly aiming for a more upscale presentation and experience, so the plates reflect that. Overall, Copita just wasn't for us. This was our first visit and unfortunately will probably be our last. I genuinely wish them success, but I think a few changes, especially when it comes to the flavors and authenticity of the food could make a big difference.

I ordered chicken enchiladas with rice and also shared an entree sized order of shrimp tacos with my dining companions. We each got to eat one of the three shrimp tacos, and honestly, this was the best thing we got! The shrimp was perfectly cooked. The cabbage slaw and salsa were fresh and crisp. And the creamy drizzle of aioli had a nice kick to it. Altogether, each bite was a feast for the senses. Service was friendly, fast, and efficient. Our waters were constantly being refilled, which was good because it was a hot day. I can't wait to come back if only for the shrimp tacos!

IMHO I love Mexican…read morefood and was very excited to try Casa Villa, another InKind app restaurant, which gives a 20% discount when paying with their app. Our friends had dined there before, recommended it and asked us to join them last night. You bet! Decor was colorful. We had our choice of tables at 5:30ish and picked a comfy booth in the next room. Music was lively, BUT a little too loud. My recommendation is to turn it down just a tad. Service was friendly and helpful. Just one lady to take orders and serve. The guys ordered beers, $6.50, and the ladies ordered guava & passionfruit mimosas, $10. My mimosa was refreshing and tasty, and it immediately went to my head, if you catch the drift. We started with the Nachos appetizer, $13.99. Delish but pricey in my opinion. The menfolk ordered Fajitas Trio Chef's Special, $32.99, and Shrimp Fajitas, $24.99, while the women ordered Quesa-Fritas, $18.99, and Asada Street Tacos, $16.99. My Asada Street Tacos came with three little cups of guacamole, onions/cilantro, and a spicy orange sauce, plus rice and beans. I took a little taste of the orange sauce before putting it on my tacos and quickly realized it would be too spicy for my tummy. I probably should've asked if they had pico de gallo, which would've been perfect for these tacos. I liked my tacos, but thought the rice was dry and beans needed more flavor. Overall, everyone liked their entrees, but we had leftovers to bring home. I was slightly disappointed that they didn't offer combo plates since I like to enjoy a cheese enchilada and taco. They didn't even have a cheese enchilada on their menu. They are open at 9 a.m. for the breakfast crowd and offer breakfast and vegetarian options as well. Will we return? Sure. I am certainly open to returning and trying their fish tacos or fish 'n chips!
