    It was fun tapas restaurant but really wasn’t a speakeasy. It’s a bring your own so to go with the speakeasy vibe you would think they would have mock tails that you could add your own. But the food was delicious and wide variety!

    Service was outstanding everyone was helpful, kind and attentive. Seating was intimate but comfortable. Noise was the only factor hard to hear each other with the noise and music but overall always enjoy coming here and being able to order multiple dishes and try a variety of things there is always something for everyone. Food was really good the hot honey carrots and grilled octopus phenomenal!

    Went to this restaurant for a small dinner celebration. Food and service was great. It is also a BYOB, which was excellent when getting the bill :) I would definitely eat here again and I'd recommend to anyone to try it.

    Food was great! The selection of music does not compliment the venue. The atmosphere would be greatly improved with jazz music.
