I absolutely fell in love with this spot when I went. Connected to one of my other favorite spots,…read moreHouse of Shamrock, this speak easy is gorgeous and a great space to rent out for a party. 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.

A bit bummed about this one, honestly. Looked great. We were out for a dinner nearby, so figured we…read morewould try this spot while out there. I looked online and saw they took reservations, yet this function was closed completely on their website. Decided to just stop by, but found them not even open on a Saturday night. Asked at the sports bar and were told it was reservations or private events only. No response when asked how you even make a reservation when the reservations are closed completely. Disappointing.

Walking in, the black and gold nuances strike you immediately and sitting at the bar, watching each drink being made is really quite fun. Their cocktail menu is absolutely spectacular. What a wide range of choices with all the major types of liquor available in one form or another. My bartender developed the program and she was super knowledgeable about it. I didn't try any of the food, so I can't comment on that, but for a pre or post dinner cocktail, I can definitely say this was an awesome spot to come out to.

Came here for an anniversary dinner and left a bit disappointed. I have heard good things but…read moreturned out to be a very mediocre dinner. Got a burger and upgraded to truffle fries. Just one burger option and limited toppings. Server was very nice but didn't write down the order, and when it came my burger was missing the cheese and onion. I wasn't sure if they would take it back or what so I didn't eat anymore and it took her a decent amount of time to come and check on us after we got our food. I let her know what was missing and she said it was her fault and asked if I wanted it fixed. I said yeah and she went and got a cold piece of cheese and slice of onion and put it on a plate and gave to me to put on my own burger. I'd expected a little bit better service and I'm certainly not someone who demands top tier service from every spot. Fries were crispy but needed some parm or an aioli sauce to dip in. Also minor note but I had some fries left on my plate and when she came to collect plates I had food in my mouth so I couldn't say anything but she took the plate and my fries! They should always ask if there's any food left on the plate. Burger was decent overall, but definitely nothing special. Environment was cool and I'm sure they have got some other delicious items on the menu but for the price paid and service received, I'd go somewhere else next time.

During this time of year, they transform the space with their Miracle pop-up, which made the atmosphere absolutely perfect for a festive work event. Even though it's their busiest season, they were incredibly accommodating and allowed us to host our luncheon. The Owner and General Manager were both extremely responsive and helpful from start to finish. They offered thoughtful suggestions on catering and the ideal setup, and patiently answered every question I had along the way. The staff was outstanding--attentive, friendly, and genuinely funny--which made the entire experience even more enjoyable. Everyone had a fantastic time and couldn't stop talking about the ambience. Truly a 10/10 experience. Highly recommend for both private events and a great night out!

In other words this ticks all my dive bar needs. It has a shuffleboard game inside along with dartboards. The menu looked simple with typical bar food: burgers, fries, wings. We came in on a Saturday evening and were surprised to be the only 2 people there. The bartender, who I suspect could be the owner, was an older lady who was friendly and happy to see a few people. 2 drinks (Tito's and soda) were around $5 each which is very reasonable. The bartender put the Tigers game on for us and we stayed for about an hour and a half before bouncing to another place. The reason for three stars? No one wants to eat in an empty restaurant. The analogy applies to bars too. The entire time we were here no one came in. I asked the bartender if they have karaoke or anything going on and she did mention Friday is karaoke night. Hopefully this was an off night because the place was cool, with good service, and is truly the definition of a dive bar.
