    Downstairs was a completely different experience than Upstairs. Each had its own vibe and different menu. Highly recommend trying both, but had a better time downstairs.

    La experiencia en este lugar es maravillosa desde el momento en que cruzas la puerta. La cálida bienvenida y la energía positiva que transmiten todos los integrantes del equipo son contagiosas. Siempre están sonrientes, se llevan bien entre ellos y hacen excelentes recomendaciones de tragos. Como sugerencia plantearía desde un inicio que, dado que el tiempo de estancia está limitado a una hora y media, los meseros te preguntarán constantemente cuál será el siguiente trago, ya que llegan a ser muy insistentes y se siente un poco apresurada la experiencia. Por ejemplo, en mi visita, aún no llevaba 1/4 de mi primer trago cuando ya me ofrecían el siguiente, lo que puede dar la impresión de cierta presión para consumir o consumir rápido. Además, me tocó sentarme en uno de los asientos junto a la entrada de charolas, y aunque la experiencia fue agradable, quizá sería buena idea reconsiderar esos asientos extremos de la barra. Desde ahí se percibe todo el movimiento del personal y, en ocasiones, el ruido de las charolas y las jarras de agua puede ser molesto. En general, es un lugar al que volvería con gusto. ¡La atención y el ambiente lo hacen único!

    Perhaps being #1 is a blessing and a curse. They seat everyone mostly all at once and you can tell the bartenders get hit with a lot of orders. Our biggest problem was finding a server to take our order. A couple came after us and was on cocktail 2 while we were sitting with empty glasses. You could hear a bartender drop a glass. Eventually, servers would ask if we wanted a drink and immediately after another server would have no clue we had already ordered. One time, they tried to serve us drinks we didn't order and when our drinks did arrive, we had to tell them whose was whose. Some of the drinks were really complex and interesting and overall had a sweet base. Overall the service and experience had some misses so I wouldn't run to return and you should consider before having fomo
