I noticed a man in a booth by himself watching a woman intently with his left hand rubbing himself. I immediately notified my husband thinking maybe I'm seeing things, and at this point the man doubled down and fully reached his right hand into his pants pulling them down to where his bare butt was on the booth. This was in full and obvious view of my husband and I, concerning us with the safety of the woman so we alerted our waitress who noticed the foul behavior and grabbed a woman (her superior maybe?) for backup. These two women told the man to stop and get up which he did, but we were informed he was a performer. At this point two men, the owner and manager (?) confronted us. instead of the expected response of shock and apologizing and correcting the situation which would be removing the perpetrator from the bar, they immediately dismissed our claim stating he may have been scratching himself and they will have to check the cameras, saying we are trying to ruin their business by spreading this information. Even the woman worker from earlier all of a sudden had some form of amnesia where she did not see the incident and claimed we were lying. In what world would we lie about something like this, we have nothing to gain from lying, only wanting the behavior to stop and be prevented for the future. We paid for our drinks 100%. I would love to see the footage and even if the cameras were thoroughly reviewed, showing a perfect angle of the act in question, I'm sure these higher ups would claim he was only scratching himself. For over five minutes, under his pants while staring at a woman standing near him who was bent over talking. Give me a break. I am just appalled but honestly not surprised that in this day and age men like this are not being held accountable for their actions. As a community we have a duty to protect others in this sick world and it's so sad that this clearly is not the priority of this business. If you do come here, which I would not recommend any longer, then please stay vigilant to predators that are very much welcome here.

Cocktails galore, wide choice of liquors for your own preferences and of course wine and beer. The space is dark, but well lit, moody but expressive. Obviously a play on the owner's heritage, I want to say he told me this but I could be making it up. The service was nothing short of impeccable, and the bartender made sure she understood my likes and dislikes when making my drink. I usually go on some random kick for a while (old fashioned, revolvers, vodka gimlets, sambuca, etc) and she was fantastic. I hear they moved to an event only space now, but if you get a chance do go.

Staff brought the drinks out quickly and checked in to make sure new drinks were ordered. The decor feels cozy but upscale and cool. We've been here many times and it's always good plus there's no shortage of options to pick from. They had a seasonal menu which was fun- drink was the bah humbug - Mezcal, Averna, Aperol, maraschino, lemon juice, egg white- had little candy cane shapes on top and looked so cute. Delicious with a hint of smoke. Also had a Dequindre cut - so refreshing and delicious- gin, fernet, lemon, ginger, raspberry, bitters, cucumber, mint and topo chico- HIGHLY RECOMMEND

We were definitely a little uncertain walking down a dumpster-filled alley, but once we stepped inside we were pleasantly surprised at how elegant, well-designed, and beautiful the interior was. We went around 6PM on a Thursday before a Red Wings game, and while there were 2-3 people seated at the bar, we were the only ones seated at a table. Service was attentive and quick. They served us a complimentary warm dark rum honey tea to start, and honestly I should have ordered a whole cup! It was delicious and unique, and I hope I can find something like it again. I would order it in a heartbeat. The drinks themselves were a little on the pricey end and since I wasn't in the mood for drinking a lot, I didn't end up ordering anything, but my boyfriend got The Hammer. Unfortunately he didn't realize it would be smoked and doesn't love the flavor of butane, but the presentation of the drink and the smoked spiced cashews that came with them were excellent! If it weren't for the butane flavor (which he believes not many others taste), my boyfriend would have really enjoyed his drink. I think it's definitely worth a visit for the ambiance and welcome drink alone, but be prepared to spend a little!
