In Short – Ordering a Sex on the Sofa (or any of the other provocatively named cocktails) could easily cause blushing at this low-lit lounge--its couches are perfect for the deed. The flea market-style chaises are covered in flirty, tactile fabrics, and fill the two-room space in living room-like arrangements. It's almost too much for first dates; more often than not, groups (especially of girls) converge for weekly tarot readings and two-for-one daily happy hours.

The Coolest Spot to Chill
by mblackford at Citysearch
We love this place! The cocktail menu is awesome and they seem to always have a really good special going on like happy hour or something. The snack menu is good and has everything you could want to supplement your drinking. There is hip music, a flat screen, board games (our favorite is clue) and vintage sofas to pile on to with your group of friends. This is our sunday evening routine and we love it! Great staff who always seem in the mood to have fun. Go Rapture!
- Pros: Crazy Drink menu, crazy drink specials and a groovy vibe
- Cons: when its too crowded to get a barstool

disapointed..
by lilo718 at Citysearch
so disappointed..we used to come here and we USED to love it! We haven't been there in a while and I don't know what is going on there but the drinks are weaker and he apps were not as great or the size they used to be?? We were in there for happy hour but the service was so slow we really didn't get much out of it...it was buy one get one 5-8, we maybe got one of those deals and we were there from 6:15-8.
The one thing that really irritated me was that the ONLY vodka I drink is goose and I know for a fact that I was not served that last time I was there..I questioned the vodka and was given an attitude and shown "a grey goose bottle". My boyfriend ordered his goose with cranberry and he also had an issue , but with the juice ..it was way sweet and did not taste right..the bartender claimed the cranberry juice from the "tap" is very sweet and NEVER tart?? It tasted like kool aid???? I don't know...it put a real "damper" on the night...I hope they don't have new management because they were a great "local" hangout =(
