The drinks were incredible and good value, the bartenders were great. The food was well made but honestly the flavour profiles and combinations were a bit strange for me. The venue is nice too, I’d definitely go back :)

Such a neat spot, went on a Saturday night for date night. Amazing selection of drinks, delicious food, only wish there were more options for a full meal. Really good hiphop music, super cool for younger people. Ambience was neat with the candlelight dinner. All the food was great. Could have done without the poke tuna though.

Friendly, attentive, and knowledgable staff. Great recommendations were given when asked for. The Clarified Bloody Mary was a particularly offbeat and original cocktail. The space is interesting and aesthetic, with a relaxed ambiance. Overall a very pleasant space to enjoy a couple of evening drinks with friends. Highly recommend.
