The perfect after dinner dessert pairing: espresso martini & chocolate cake…read more The best espresso martini Milagro resposado tequila ever! Located inside The Edition, the far back hotel bar surrounded by lush green plants. Ordered with a slice of the chocolate ganache cake. Comes with fruit garnish on the side. Entire cake is literally creamy truffle ganache but not as soft as mousse. Tastes just like a huge portion of the inside of a gigantic decadent creamy chocolate truffle ball... the best part of any truffle ball! After spending several hours on a roof top pool, dinner at Boulon with a couple of friends, we meandered here. While I was scarfing down this ganache cake, they were playing a few rounds of pool. The service is professional & spectacular. The interior is like a green plant conservatory, spa vibe scents.

Perfect for a date where you want to hear each other speak. We nabbed the center seating for the 8 guests in our party. The concept is clever highlighting punch style concoctions. You are met with a sample welcome cocktail which sets the tone for the menu. We each had 1-2 drinks and had mixed reviews. Traditional cocktails are available as well. Our bartender was knowledgeable and helpful in navigating the flavor profiles of items on the menu.

The DJ was the highlight for me. Somehow he mixed urban with techno and it was a little bit of everything for every personality -- I loved it. The food and drinks were my LEAST favorite thing about the place, but I would surprisingly go back on a date or a cute night out with some my boo to enjoy the intimate vibes. This place is EXPENSIVE! $28 for a French 75 -- so correction, the price was my least favorite thing about this place. So along as you have a good budget, you should be good.

You can tell they're skilled and actually care about your experience, not just making drinks. Oh and they have bar snacks now! It's not included with your drinks like in Europe. You have to order separately and they come in the most adorable tray for $5! The music is always on point, which honestly makes a huge difference in the overall vibe. Also, I love their hours...it's one of those places you can count on when you're not ready for the night to end.

From the moment I walked in, I was treated like I wasn't wanted there. No greeting, no attempt to…read moretake my order, and no basic customer service whatsoever. I tried to be polite and patient, but the staff was rude from the very beginning and made it clear they didn't want to serve me. To make it worse, I was kicked out for absolutely no reason. They claimed I "argued" with them, which is completely false. I never raised my voice or caused an issue--I was simply responding to their hostility. Instead of owning their behavior, they chose to make something up and remove me. I've never experienced such unprofessional, disrespectful treatment at a bar. If you're looking for a place where you feel welcome or even acknowledged, this is definitely not it.

What a DOPE, PIRATE THEMED, speakeasy to go to grab some delicious drinks! Totally blown away!…read more Tucked, downtown Tampa you enter through a secret bookcase door and you enter a very low key pirate bar! Lighting is dim, which is part of the concept. (Auto flash is needed for pics) The joint, is VERY CLEAN! The staff is awesome and very attentive! They understand process. The drinks are SOOO WELL MADE! I had a Zombie as my first drink, and it is very well presented and STRONG! I prefer,my first drink at an establishment to be strong cause then I can lighten it up later. Then I had a Rum Barrel, not as strong, but well presented and delicious! Note: Prices for drinks are worth every dime! They have a small food menu, but everything on the menu looked delicious, but I did not eat there. This speakeasy is attached to a British pub which I went for food after. (Review to come) All-in-all great spot to come and have a drink you are well treated, appreciated and just a fun experience! I will DEFINITELY come back here for a delicious drink and DEFINITELY will try something off the food menu. I'll just make sure next time I won't go there after a big breakfast lol! Five stars alllllll day long!!!

Had a truly awful experience here. At about 9pm on a Friday my party of 5 put our name on a…read morewaitlist. Nearly 2 hours later we had still not received any word from them. When we came back to the hostess we were told that we had cancelled our reservation despite never getting a call or text from the establishment. They could not show us any proof of this cancellation and upon further investigation we discovered that the hostess had typed in the phone number wrong and the system cancelled our names from the waitlist (highlighting his lie that he confidently told us that we had cancelled our reservation and that they couldn't see the waitlist communication after it was sent). Due to the error of their end we asked for him to streamline our names on the waitlist and he became combative and told us that he was not comfortable serving us and asked us to leave. We spoke to the manager and they reiterated that they believe we had cancelled our reservation despite having proof that the hostess was the issue. Eventually after speaking to the general manager on duty he was able to magically find multiple open spots for us at the bar and was completely comfortable with serving us despite the allegations made by the hostess. And then after all that waiting, the bartenders were rude, asked us if we were the people causing all those problems at the front, and drinks were awful. Definitely not worth your time. Everyone is rude and you will feel demeaned just for trying to get access to their "exclusive" speakeasy.

I was seated within 10 minutes. And the waits began. Between ordering, receiving my food, and being checked on, I felt forgotten multiple times -- went to the bar myself to get extra napkins. The food --though the flavors were there -- was not worth the $90 I spent. I got the deviled eggs (they are solid, but overpriced), cornbread -- why so $$?, shrimp and grits, and a slice of pie. The shrimp and grits are the real reason for the low rating of this post. The roux was grease/oil. I had to use a napkin to drain it. No one should consume that amount of grease/oil. Ever. The flavors were very good once I drained the oil. When I spend close to $100 on a meal, I either want exceptional food (not just good) or exceptional service. I got neither.

The Truffle Potato Croquettes were amazing, I honestly could've eaten 20 of them. The bread with the whipped butter was incredible and such a great start to the meal. My Scallop Risotto was delicious and the scallops literally melted in my mouth. But the standout for me was the Pot Pie La Mer. Holy moly... I've never had a pot pie like that before. The flavors were amazing and all of the seafood tasted so fresh. To top it all off, the Bananas Foster Bread Pudding was the perfect ending. Everything was rich and flavorful! Highly recommend!

Love this place, but one bad apple ruins the experience We…read morevisit here often and absolutely love the food, the vibe, and almost all of the staff. We've never had a bad experience with any of the other bartenders or servers--they are usually fantastic! However, this is now the second time we've been served by the same bartender (he has long black hair kept in a man bun), and both times have been absolutely miserable experiences. He is beyond rude, incredibly impersonal, and makes us feel like an inconvenience just for ordering. We love supporting this place and will keep coming back for the overall great service, but we will definitely be avoiding his section or the bar if he's working. Management really needs to address his attitude, as it completely kills the great energy the rest of the staff works hard to create.

We originally planned on bringing some family here for their anniversary but that plan feel through so we made it into a friends catch up dinner. Right off the back LOVED our server Nimah. She was funny, helpful, and attentive. And they are on top of refilling your water so you will never go thirsty. I'm not much of a drinker, so I don't have much to say on that matter. The ambiance was nice. A lot of eclectic paintings on the walls. And loved the outfits of the servers. Very 20's speakeasy. There is a live jazz band that started performing at 7 pm. They were good but at some points it was a bit difficult to speak and listen to those at your table unless you got really close. My meal hit the spot. We started with a charcuterie board for the table. It had a lot of great options like dried apricots, actual honeycomb pieces, and my most favorite cheese, some Brie cheese. The only thing was there was only 4 pieces of bread, one for each of us, which wasn't enough but I guess it made sense not to fill us up too much. For my main meal I had the sweet potato salad which was very tasty and the sweet potato risotto, which a little spicy kick. The only thing I missed was the Brussels sprouts and potatoes but was told that was from the previous chef. But they serve you enough so you definitely will have left overs. Not a big fan of eating in the lounge areas, those are best just for drinks and maybe desserts. But it's definitely a great place to people watch. You will definitely have a meal and a show no matter what. Hopefully can schedule another time to bring my family because I know they would love it.
