    Handshakes all around for Handshake! I was determined to get a reservation for this bar considering…read moreit's one of the best bars in North America that I even put a reminder on my phone when reservations were released. Honestly, I couldn't find the place at all. In fact I had to call my friend to see where it was. It's hidden inside a hotel and there's construction going around so it was definitely hard to find and walk through especially with heels on. Luckily we had a reservation because there were plenty of people waiting for seating! The man directed us downstairs to the actual speakeasy. What a super cool neat spot! It was quite dim, but we of course got the best seat in the house because of our party size. The music was top 40 which was an interesting touch considering the ambience of this place, but I wasn't complaining. Onto the drinks. I got the infamous - Peanut Butter & Jelly 100000/5 - I honestly think this is the drink that put them on the charts! The different flavors coming together within the drink and the little sandwich. The 'peanut butter & jelly' sandwich cookie was made from white chocolate and jam. I was honestly thoroughly impressed. I knew it was going to be good, but I didn't think it was going to be THIS good! Cookies n cream 5/5 - I'd still give this a 5/5 because it was also a great cocktail, but not as great as the peanut butter & jelly. I love that a lot of the bars have a little sweet treat to 'chase' the cocktail with. It definitely helps to add the uniqueness of the cocktails you're sipping on!

    I really wanted to like this place a lot more. It's not a hard to find speakeasy, located in the…read morelobby of a hotel. My highlights were the welcome of every one of their team as you walk in and the goodbye you get. I also liked that they gave you towel to wipe your hands. The drinks were a bit lackluster. They sat us at the bar in front of the mixologist so we expected to get drinks mixed right in front of us but instead we got them poured out of containers where they had already been pre-batched. Not the crafted cocktails I was looking for. The dim lighting, bubbles for birthdays and friendly service was what I loved. The drinks left me wanting more. Worth going once to see if it's your vibe.

    AVOID THIS BAD AT ALLLLLLLL COSTS! AND THIS IS. NOT A GAY BAR!!…read more We came on a Friday night, and after we entered the waiters obviously work on tips, because 2 of them fought over where we sat when we arrived. We wanted to sit against the wall, so we grabbed 2 of the 4 chairs from a nearby table and got comfy. The "winning" waiter quickly came over to tell us that "chairs are for tables & not for walls". Okay. Wtf. Fine. So we sat at the table. Literally every 5 minutes the waiter came over to give up 2 thumbs up, apparently to see how we were doing. We were clearly still working on our drinks, and both of our drinks were more than half full. As our drinks began to go down and there were maybe three sips left, the waiter came over to advise us that he needs our table because someone else is ordering a bottle and they want to sit down. I'm like, well, they can wait like we did and everyone else too. You don't tell patrons to leave because they want o sit there. He didn't know we were going to order more drinks. In fact, there was a single guy behind us drinking a Cosmo with less than one sip left & the guy didn't say shit to him. My friend is very passive. I, however am not. And although he claimed not to speak English, I know damn well that he understood what I said to him. Mostly because when he asked my friend if he would like to leave a tip, and I very quickly yelled, "NO!" And he didn't. Also, this poor schmuck needed a calculator to add $80 + $80. Poor stupid thing. Then as we're leaving, we see it's just 2 people at our table. A straight couple. So what this ass did was move a gay couple so that he could sit a straight couple. Had he allowed us to use the stools at the wall in the first place, the straights could've had their table, us at the wall, and we would've stayed and spent more money! Look, this is CLEARLY NOT a gay bar, and they are NOT cool with gay couples. There were DEFINITELY more females than males here, & no, it wasn't "lesbian night", and the owner claims in another post. You fought to have us sit in your section, only to kick us out because we aren't ordering drink after drink after drink. OR because a straight couple is more desirable for you? I didn't feel comfortable here. The bar doesn't belong in Zona Rosa, and I will NOT return. I highly suggest you don't waste your time either.

    This places ripped me off!! They charged me full cover at the door, but they wouldn't let me go…read moreupstairs to the bar! They took me downstairs to this little room with a little bar and no one was there, and they wouldn't allow me to go upstairs! If you are going to charge someone full price at the door, they should have full access to the club! What a rip off!!!!
