    Omg super cute. We didn't try the "food" it's like cheez its and trail mix. This place is a total…read morebar. So first floor is a cute little intimate low lit place. Second floor is the event center. Third is the cigar lounge which is highly lit, Smokey and super sexy. Jack nickleson included! The basement is the speakeasy. That's where the loud music, (and less comfortable chairs than above imo) is. But hey! You went to a speakeasy and had a good time!

    My husband and I came here for the first time last Saturday, and unfortunately, it was a pretty…read moredisappointing experience overall. The noise level was extremely high...we literally had to yell just to have a conversation with each other. Service was also very slow. It took about 15 minutes just to be acknowledged at the bar, and close to 30 minutes to actually receive a drink. When I finally ordered, I told the bartender to make her favorite drink. She made something that included raw egg whites (which I later learned is common in certain cocktails), but it wasn't mentioned or explained at the time. A few hours later, I became very sick...vomiting and dealing with what felt like severe food poisoning all night and through the next 24 hours. After looking into it, I suspect it may have been related to the raw egg used in the drink. Just something to be aware of if you're ordering drinks like a whiskey sour or anything that may include egg whites. After getting our receipt (which you need for the speakeasy entry code), we checked out the speakeasy portion, but the vibe there wasn't great either..pretty must the same as the other part of the bar. We ended up leaving within about five minutes. Overall, the experience didn't live up to the hype for us....between the noise, long wait times, and how we were treated, it just wasn't enjoyable. For comparison, the bar next door, Archibald, felt much more welcoming. Maybe regulars have a different experience, but as first-time guests, we were not impressed.

They've got wall projectors showing off beach scenes, the bar is the prow of a ship, and a ring of booths with thatch roofs surround the bar. The suspended ceiling sort of broke the vibe, but they'd worked to make it translucent and backlit. Overall, a cool pirate vibe. The service was great. We were there on Saturday at 2pm, shortly after they opened, and it was a single bartender...so his service was great. Drinks were interesting. They do a number of riffs on tiki drinks: their Morse code is a take on the classic three dots and a dash, they have two zombie riffs, they have a riff on the Painkiller. If you're looking for slavish adherence to the old recipes, this ain't your place. But they're not reinventions, and that's a very tiki thing. Some are misses - the black walnut bitters in the Pain Kill ARR made no sense, but the light rum and lack of honey in the Morse Code were bright and refreshing. Over the span of 150 minutes the two of us had seven drinks and three mixed shots. All well made, all generally good, no absolute home runs. Totally worth a return trip. It'll be fun to visit during a busier time.

    I celebrated my 50th birthday at Studio 80 and had so much fun we have made it a recurring night…read moreout! April (Abri) always takes such great care of us and is such a sweetheart. Patrick is a wonderful host and is always there to help. Quinn is amazing at his double duty of host/security as well as his "alter ego" characters. We always feel well taken care of and safe when we are there. People are dressed casual (there is a dress code but nothing out of the ordinary), dressed up, dressed in 80's fashion, dressed in costumes....you name it. It's a great place where there is no judgement and you feel like you are dancing with an entire dance floor full of friends! I highly suggest making a reservation and the process is super easy. There is plenty of security around so you never have to worry about anyone messing with your items or your drinks. You can also move around the venue and not have to worry about losing your table. The valet staff was very quick and it's very affordable. They do not serve food however you are allowed to bring your own to the venue or even Door Dash something which is what we did! This is going to be your next hang out I guarantee it!

    It's like going back in time to your school disco's (if you were lucky enough like myself to have…read moreexperienced school discos!). The music is spot on - the dance floor is always jumping and the vibe is amazing. Some people dress up 80's style - some are in jeans/t-shirts and others are dressed to the nines. I love that no one really takes notice and that it is a smorgasbord of styles. However, I do wish there was a few more seating options for those brief moments that you need to rest between your dance sessions tho - even if it is the "uncomfortable slanted bus stop" types along a wall. The missing star from this 5 star review is that the drink service is a little hit and miss - there are some truly stellar bar tenders working there but equally there are some bar tenders who play favorites and can leave you hanging.
