Bar Mezzo is a concept from the owners of intermezzo. At some point intermezzo got so popular,…read morethere just wasn't enough space for everyone, specifically at night. The concepts are similar, but not quite the same. Bar Mezzo is more cocktail forward, although it houses some of the same cocktails featured at intermezzo, including espresso based cocktails. It has one of the few espresso martinis in town that feature fresh brewed espresso. One of the best things about this bar is that it focuses on the art of cocktail making and features the bartenders as artisans. Every employee is the epitome of top of the line hospitality. Each cocktail on the menu is unique and you won't find it replicated locally. The menu is seasonal, so you can always try something new. It's the kind of place where you can say to the bartender "I'm feeling something gin based, maybe something blackberry flavored" and they will make you a unique cocktail based on what you're feeling, even if you don't know exactly what you want. During the month of December, they hold "miracle at mezzo"- a Christmas themed pop-up that was previously hosted at intermezzo. During the cooler months, weekends and during the Christmas popup, it's gets extremely crowded, sometimes forming a line out the door. Depending on the weather, they will open up the front garage style door for more standing space. You should expect a 30-37$ tab for two cocktails, or maybe 15-18$ if you catch a happy hour special.

Try paying $20 for house wine with a blind eyed $3 tip. Nice ambiance until you get the tab…read more Service 50/50. KallmeKrakenKaren but WTF.

Six of us came to this speakeasy on a Saturday at 11:24p when Bodega was closing. No password…read moreneeded, you just wander right in behind a sliding large door (see pic). Once inside you see how little this place is, which is one of the reasons for 3 stars. Other downfalls was service being slow, so much that we left without getting any drinks after standing by the bar for about ten minutes without much moving. The place was crowded, probably because earlier today was the pride parade. Another reason for the lower score is only one bathroom stall from what we could tell. And not enough tables because of how small the venue is. There were a couple small tables with drinks on them but no one busing the floor. Liked the decorations in the corner with old record albums... Kiss, Robert Palmer, Chuck Magione, Ricki Lee Jones, Adam Ant. The music playing was good. After Bodega closes the only entrance/exit is a door that dumps to the side alley. It isn't hidden so found it pretty easily. A loose entrepretation of a speakeasy. Might try this again on a less busy night where the bar service can keep up with the patrons. Recommend this place to smaller numbers of 2-4 people. Anything larger and they just can't accommodate properly. In my picture you can see how small all the tables are... Bodega closes several hours before Bar Chica, so if the Central Avenue door is locked then entrance is down the alley to the right. They close at 1a on Saturdays...

Service was terrific -- they made us feel like it was our bar! Ambiance was in point with suggestive dark, moody lighting.

This review is specifically for this location when there Is NOT a show at jannus going on…read more On a normal day or evening, this bar can actually get pretty slow and intimate, making it a great place for people watching, pregaming a date night, or catching a drink while eating some Thai to go. Simple, patio only bar- no frills but not necessarily a dive. Service is only at the bar and is friendly. They'll make you a cute and yummy cocktail if that's what you want. I would not go to this bar before during or after a show at Jannus. It is heavily overcrowded. I would probably recommend walking to somewhere nearby with a higher capacity like my rich uncle, one night stand, thirsty first, etc.

It recently became my favorite pregame spot! During the first couple of visits they offered a small menu of quickie appetizers but last time the kitchen was closed. The bartender was cool with me grabbing something local and eating at the bar. I went to burrito border for some nachos to go. The patio is laced with tree branches and greenery, making it esthetically pleasing as well as somewhat private. Bartenders are super friendly and fun. Love the service and prices are fair. They always mention specials. The live music can be reggae or folksy. I never know till I get there but I'm never disappointed.
