They have a bunch of old-school arcade games from the Nintendo/Super Nintendo days, and you actually use tokens to play, which makes the whole experience feel even more nostalgic. They also have a DJ and a full bar, and honestly, the drinks were really good! It's a fun place to hang out with friends, play some games, grab a drink, and just enjoy the atmosphere. Definitely recommend stopping by for a nightcap if you're already in DTLA and want to do something a little different.

I had already drank at some breweries before we came here so I didn't want any more mixed drinks. I got a canned drink, I don't remember the name We had some coins and started to play. A couple of the machines took our coins but the games never started which was a bummer but we just moved on. We later saw people playing on them so it was probably something we did wrong. The place was a good vibe with a do playing music. We spent about an hour before we decided to check another place out. My husband and I had a lot of fun. Good way to reminisce when we were young kids playing these games.

When you walk in, there's a long bar along the side, plenty of bar seating and some half-booth seating on the other side. Big space inside but it also wasn't too busy when we came in, it started filling up though as the evening got later. I went with their pepperoncini martini and my bf got the pimms the word cocktail. Mine was so unique! I love a martini, and I love pepperoncinis and this was truly a marriage of both. I don't think I could have too many of these in a row bc the flavor is so strong but it's a beautiful cocktail to try out if you like those flavors. The Pimms the word was also good too, it's very ginger forward. We decided to order some food too. We got the single burger without the cheese and the barbecued chicken thighs. The burger looked quite small on the plate so it's definitely not a monstrous burger. It was good but weren't sure it was worth the high praise, but maybe it relies on the cheese since it's a pretty small burger? The chicken thighs were tasty and cooked well. I appreciate that the prices aren't skyrocket high here, especially for custom specialty cocktails. The prices are reasonable for what you get. And the bartenders all seem very experienced and they know what they're doing. I definitely look forward to coming back and trying more of their cocktails!

One of my absolute favorites on the menu is the potato taquitos, which of course I had to order. They never disappoint. I also tried the cauliflower for the first time and was pleasantly surprised... super flavorful and definitely something I'd order again. The biscuits with the sweet butter are ALWAYS a must for me, and my partner got the nachos which were also really good. Beyond the food, the atmosphere here is what keeps bringing me back. The staff is always amazing, welcoming, and very attentive. Every time I come, there always seems to be a fun private party or guest-hosted event happening, which adds such a nice energy to the space. Their outdoor patio is honestly one of my favorite parts... it's beautiful, fresh, spacious, and just such a perfect place to sit and relax, especially in the evening. Definitely one of my favorite spots in LA.

My partner and I were looking for a menu. I asked "do you have a specialty cocktails menu or a regular menu somewhere?" and she said a short no and said any regular bar drink will do. After she goes back on her phone to scroll, I turn my head and see a menu with some basic cocktails and their variations (which is what I initially asked about). Once my partner was ready to order palomas for us, we try getting her attention and kinda stared and waved hands, but she continued to scroll on her phone. It took her coworker to talk to her. THEN, she makes our palomas and stops to tell us her soda gun isn't working, so she couldn't top it off with soda. Fine cool, assuming she'll give us a small discount, but she charges us $24 for two palomas. So really we just paid for lemon tequila drinks that should've just been $16 for both. Palomas don't cost that much either. Should be just like $10, unless the Paloma is presentable then yeah $12 is fine. So, she ripped us off, didn't offer any accommodation for it, and was pretty distant and careless with her job. Anyway, don't come here if you care about customer service. Kinda strange here because this looks like a hot spot and charming, but they got the wrong people working here honestly. Something's up with management or a lack of boosting morale.

The atmosphere is immersive, theatrical, moody, and every nook and cranny of this place is beautifully detailed. Our group embraced the requested all-black dress code, and I was a little disappointed that some other guests didn't play along. When a place puts this much effort into creating a particular world, dressing the part really does make the experience more fun. The spirits themselves were excellent. We tasted vodka, whiskey, and rum, and all three were remarkably smooth, interesting, and clearly very high quality. I loved that the tasting was guided rather than just having drinks dropped in front of us. The storytelling and presentation made us pay attention to what we were actually tasting and gave the evening a nice sense of progression. We also happened to be there while comic artist Matt Harley of Marvel fame was sketching, which felt perfectly suited to the setting and made an already unusual night even more memorable. The space is gorgeous: candlelight, artwork, strange little details everywhere, dramatic lighting, beautiful glassware, and even the outdoor fire element. There's so much to look at that you feel like you're discovering something new every time you turn around. Our whole group LOVES Halloween, so this felt like the absolute perfect way to kick off spooky season. It has exactly the kind of dark, mysterious, slightly magical atmosphere we were hoping for without feeling cheesy or gimmicky. We loved the rum so much that we ended up buying a bottle, which also granted us Level 1 membership, so this definitely won't be our only visit. Such a fun choice for a birthday celebration, date night, or a night out with friends when you want something completely different from the usual bar experience. We're already looking forward to going back and seeing what our new membership unlocks.
