What happened?

by simuvac

I used to love this place, being the cocktail snob that I am. But lately the drinks have been sloppy. Too tart, not cold enough (not stirring enough maybe?), bitter (get that pith outta there), or just plain bland. What happened to the impeccable cocktails? I love this bar and don't want to give up on it.

It's a COCKTAIL bar people......

by trd0428

This is hands down my favorite bar in the city. The bartenders/waitresses are friendly and the cocktails are unbelievable. This is a cocktail bar. They have a very limited supply of liquor/beer brands. They are all top notch, but don't go here looking for a johnny walker black on the rocks, or a grey goose martini. It gets very crowded on weekend nights, and the drinks do take a while to make. So if you are looking for a 3 dollar cup of swill, go elsewhere. If you are looking for a fantastic cocktail to enjoy with a couple of friends, look no further.

Bad Service, Angry Bartender... but nice looking spot

by nuyoguru23

Walked in on a Friday night, for a friends gathering and surprisingly is wasn't too crowded. I went all the way towards the back to meet up with the friends you had already been waiting there. it was nice to see how long the place actually goes back, into the back room which could easily hold a party of 30. <BR>

So, It's a party and i wanted a drink... the back was crowded with my friends, so i decided to go to the bar and order my drink... no big deal considering it was a cash ONLY spot. right? wrong....

As i look at the menu at the bar, the bartender barks at me that there are menus at the back tables. I explained that i did see any and just wanted to see what liquor they had available, she again said, angrily, that they should be there and i need to order from the back.

Now, i was was in a mood, but I proceeded to head back the back room to order my drink... it took about another 10 minutes before someone came back and even took anyones order.

After i ordered and more people showed up, the heat from the stuffy room got disturbing due to the lack of ventilation. as the party grew and the service grew worse, the entire party decide to relocate to a location that can better suit our size and had service to match.

I just wanted my drink, but i guess you can no longer or at the bar any more.

Stop being pretentious just because you are in a cool location and be better to the customers.

• Pros: nice location, looked kool inside
• Cons: bad service, could not handle a large party, rude
