I finally got to visit this cozy, dimly lit speakeasy at the Packing District that I'd had…read morebookmarked for the longest time! Reservations are required since it's a small, hidden bar. The space has a Harry Potter theme with spooky decorations, creating a unique and intimate atmosphere. They offer a mix of classic tiki drinks and specialty cocktails. My favorites were the Philosopher's Stone Fruit and Eater of Death #2. Both drinks were creative, unique, and fun to try! We loved the cocktails and would recommend checking this place out!

The Blind Rabbit is no doubt a very neat place and definitely an experience, but the reason for my…read moreone star is because my friend and I were treated absolutely terribly by one of the bartenders. We were there on Sunday, October 3rd around 3pm. We asked who the owners were because we were really impressed with the place and thought they might be the same owners as another location we had visited. There was absolutely no bad intention behind the question. The male bartender told us that no one name drops anymore. I understood what he was saying and was more than willing to move on. But then I asked him if the bar offered whiskey sours and he responded, "You really don't know what you're doing here and what you want." I was honestly so taken back by that comment. I don't normally stay quiet when someone speaks to me disrespectfully, but I was so caught off guard that I didn't even know what to say. Before that, he had also yelled out to the host that she didn't need to worry because we didn't know the owners and that she could relax. The whole interaction was completely unnecessary and made us feel very uncomfortable. We came in wanting to enjoy the atmosphere and have a good time. Instead, we left feeling disrespected and uncomfortable. There is a way to speak to customers, even if you feel they are asking questions you don't like. We did nothing to deserve that kind of attitude. The Blind Rabbit may be a great place, but unfortunately, the way we were treated by this bartender completely ruined the experience for us. Customer service matters, and unfortunately, ours was extremely disappointing.

Words honestly don't express how extraordinary our experience at Strong Water Anaheim was, but I…read morewill try: The drinks and decor were fantastic, but Erica is what made this visit truly special. Her warmth, genuine conversation, and generosity made us feel so welcome as tiki newbies just finding our sea legs. I had the Three Dots and a Dash and Erica's Velvet Banana, while my partner had a Lapu Lapu and a Starward Swizzle. We each tried a Snaquiri, too- and several of these ended up being some of our favorite drinks of the entire trip! Erica sent us off with amazing memories, recommendations, and what was essentially an itinerary and syllabus for our Southern California tiki adventure. We're so grateful for her enthusiasm and willingness to share her love and insight. The only downside was that Strong Water set the bar ridiculously high- it ended up being our best experience of the entire trip O_o If you're anywhere near Anaheim, Strong Water is an absolute must. We cannot recommend it highly enough!

Greg, our bartender, was amazing--super knowledgeable and great at making drinks. He made the whole experience even better. Such a fun hidden tiki bar with a unique atmosphere and incredible cocktails. We can't wait to come back and try more of their amazing concoctions!

Don't waste your time. In theory, this place is really cool, but unfortunately, I would not…read morerecommend it based on our experience. We had reservations for 7:45 p.m. on a Friday night and arrived about 10 minutes early. There was no signage or communication letting us know that we were supposed to wait outside before being seated. After standing outside for about 15 minutes with no one coming to check on us or explain what was going on, I finally went inside to ask. Waitress was a bit rude and said to wait outside which again how were we supposed to know? We were seated about five minutes later. Once seated, we waited another 15-20 minutes just for our waitress to come over and take our drink order. She didn't ask if we wanted appetizers or if we were ready to order food. We then waited another 15 minutes for our drinks to actually arrive, and unfortunately, both were watered down and didn't taste anything like they were described. Table next to us ordered the fun drink with the design yet she got no design. At this point, it had been over an hour since our 7:45 reservation, and no one had even taken our food order. I literally had to ask our waitress when she was going to take it. She was nice and apologetic and explained that they only had one bartender working. I understand that wasn't her fault, but I really don't understand why a restaurant would staff only ONE bartender on a Friday night, especially when they're accepting reservations. We ultimately decided to leave because the service was just too slow, and we figured we were better off going somewhere else. The two other parties sitting near us also ended up leaving after ordering drinks because of the slow service, so we clearly weren't the only ones having this experience. The concept and atmosphere have a lot of potential, but management seriously needs to address the staffing and service issues. A reservation shouldn't turn into more than an hour of waiting without even getting the chance to order food.

Had a lovely time on Saturday after lunch at the Anaheim Packing District. I had always passed by…read morethis place and never went in, even though the outside looked so cool and fascinating. When we entered, the inside felt like we were in the inside of a train, there were various train themed decoration scattered throughout the walls and floors. My girlfriend got the sex in this city cocktail and I opted for the painkiller cocktail. Both were stunning and delicious. Lots of different photo ops for you and your loved ones as well as movies playing behind the bar. We also loved our bartenders, who made our drinks with ease and were knowledgeable in the different drink items. Overall, would definitely visit again!

I had been looking forward to coming to this bar for a long time, so unfortunately, the experience…read morewas extremely disappointing. We arrived about an hour after opening, and the bar already felt completely unprepared. The bartender was eating food at the bar while we were there, and after getting our initial drinks, we were essentially left on our own. She never checked back with us, and not once were we asked if we wanted another drink. For a place I had been excited to finally visit, this was easily one of the worst bar experiences I've ever had. The service was inattentive, the atmosphere felt unprofessional, and the overall experience left a very bad impression. Unfortunately, I won't be coming back.

We couldn't see anything from the ch.4 section so it kept this side nice and intimate. It's a small place but when we arrived there was still plenty of seating inside. I love their decor with the dim lights. Even though this side is the speak easy experience you can order food which appreciated very much. We were mentally prepared to eat elsewhere if need be. The food is Lebanese and like any Mediterranean food, delicious! We had the chicken kabob entree and everything was really good! The only thing I was not a super fan of was their pita bread and how it came. It comes in a plastic bag inside a little bucket and it's a thin pita and I usually prefer the thicker pita, but that's just my personal preference. The drinks were really good too! We had a great time chit chatting and right before we left we got to enjoy a couple of songs from live performance. It was a perfect date night and their service was exceptional!

We mostly enjoyed some small bites and some drinks. The server was fine - the lone bad mark on the evening was that he sort of disappeared on us for a while... and there were no other tables in the whole place except us... we were the lone little two-top. But the hummus plate was my favorite! And I tried a flight of beers here, too. That was a nice surprise!

The hostess explained their whole shtick: in-house distilled spirits that are infused with music to change the flavor profile. It SOUNDS crazy...until you order a flight and taste their two burbons side by side: same bourbon, different music, different tasting notes. Totally crazy experience! For cocktail lovers, they are doing some really cool stuff there. I got 2 savory cocktails (Mariposa & Aquatinted), the former was more my speed, but I always appreciate when restaurants experiment more in the savories for cocktails. Their signature list has many unique flavor combinations, and I'm looking forward to our next visit to try more! Food-wise: no misses for us. We debated going for a bunch of small plates (easily doable with their menu), but the sea bass was calling to us. Split that + the Wagyu Short Rib. Both were delicious, but the Wagyu was a little under salted for me. The smoked carrot conift actually stole the show on that dish - we're definitely going to try the carrot appetizer next time we're there! Dessert: Both full desserts looked great (their 3rd dessert right now is a cocktail - also cool!), but we opted for the Baked Alaska. DELICIOUS! The dish was stellar, but the cherry sauce with it took it to the next level. Ambiance: Great vibes. They have a live DJ Fridays and Saturdays, and the music was present but not overwhelming for me. The whole space is designed with sound in mind so it was very cozy, very atmospheric, and very chill. Can't wait to come back! Huge shout out to our server/bartender Jimmy who was CRUSHING IT managing so many drink orders. Hope we run into you again next time!
