    Espresso martini
    Noopur D.

    We came here for drinks on a weeknight and it was really cute and classy! I liked the ambiance and decor inside. We shared an espresso martini and the midnight in Paris, the drinks were really nice and tasty and had good flavors. I do wish the prices were a bit cheaper but I can't complain too much since they're quite standard for drinks, but some of the other drinks were even more expensive. The service was really good too and our server checked up on us a couple times.

    Quality Drinks no doubt about it. Quality drinks and a divey atmosphere, without the Shab. Couple that with good service and you've got a good spot. Came here for sort of a UYE following the Tailgate Time event by recommendation. I was put on to a new type of drink that is specialized here, Chartreuse. Chartreuse is a French herbal liqueur that is usually in green and yellow and differ by the place, bartender, alcohol used. Started with a couple of Midnight in Paris cocktails - Blood orange infused vodka, ginger, mint, fresh lemon, topped with Brut. My kind of drink - citrusy and smooth. Then a round of Chartresue called "The Last Laugh", also smooth and sort of herbal. Very good, almost like a strong tea. The server was very friendly - talking about specials, her preferred drinks and such which made the visit a little more personable. Definitely would like to get back here, I love the low-key vibes.

    This place has a great pisco sour with a sprig of rosemary lit on top for both garnish and scent. The Crunchwrap Supremes feel a bit random, but the Hawaiian one (the second most popular) was actually pretty good! It's advertised as big enough to share between two, but next time, I'd get one for myself. The service was really friendly.

    Food was yummy! Had a Crunchi wrap and the goat cheese taco. Service was great, quick and efficient. We will back as a nice simple meal before a Kraken game!

    Drinks - the drinks were really really good! We went during the Holiday Home Alone pop up and the menu was amazing! Service - they were busy but they were pretty speedy. We went to a show afterwards on a Saturday and they were able to serve us in a timely manner. That said, make sure you allow enough time as they often have a wait. Ambiance - with the holiday pop up it was awesome! Very festive and cozy! I absolutely plan to go back!

    I remembered to take some pics :) Still a neighborhood favorite. Great ambiance and friendly staff. It's a dark cozy place to come, and I generally am here late. The drink menu is always innovative but old favorites are still there. The floating plastic rubber duck in my Pineapple rum was a kitchy touch :) Expect great service and a memorable place. I do wish they would bring back some old favorites on the menu... please....

    Such a fun spot to come during the Holidays - this space is decorated in theme w/ Home Alone. They do such a good job and the cocktail list is so creative & funny. This is a must during the holidays - I need to go during other times of the year to check out the menu - I am sure it must be good!

    This place honestly deserves a sixth star-- it's one of my go-to date night spots. It's intimate without feeling uncomfortable and hip without trying too hard. Most recently, my husband and I visited for dinner on a Friday night around 7pm and had multiple table options, though the restaurant was about 70% full (and filling up more). We were in high spirits and our waitress joined right in without missing a beat, cracking jokes with us, and adding to the overall great vibes. The cocktail list is extensive and truly has something for everyone, even several non-alcoholic cocktails and low ABV options (even a n/a rosé!). As someone who doesn't drink much, this is the dream. The n/a options even have fun names like the regular cocktails to make it feel even more normalized. My drink, the (non-alcoholic) Prickly in Pink, was delicious and aesthetically pleasing. Basically, a prickly pear margarita. My husband loved his (alcoholic) cocktail also though I forgot which one he had. Now, the reason we're all here-- the crunchywraps! These delectable creations are what the fast food guys down the street WISH they were doing. Every filling we've tried has been delicious but this visit, we both had the limited edition birria crunchywrap that comes with a bowl of consommé for dipping... there are no words. Just get it. I don't know how many signatures I'd need for a petition to make this a permanent menu item but I'd gladly start lobbying tomorrow. 10/10 for ambiance, service, food, and drinks at every visit.

    Phenomenal drinks and you have to try their munch wrap supreme. They're always rotating seasonal cocktails but you can't go wrong with their classics. They serve them in fun receptacles, too! Parking sucks though so take the bus or something. Moody lighting and a cozy atmosphere.

    This is a great spot for pre-show dinner and drinks! Tucked away from the main drag I don't know how I've missed this business before. So glad we got to try it out recently! I had the impossible meat taco salad and my friend had a crunchy wrap. We each had a couple of delectable drinks to go with our meals and made it over the Rep just in time for the curtain! Note it is an 8-minute brisk walk from this restaurant and the Seattle Rep Theater! Service here was good and parking was super convenient near the entrance. I will certainly be back the next time I'm in lower Queen Anne!

    Craft cocktail not on the menu... " make me something with gin and heat, but lite and crisp.

    Nice, interesting spot to hang out in Lower Queen Anne. Quiet enough to talk or work. Great drink menu!

    I've only been here during the holidays, when they have their Home Alone pop-up going on, and I absolutely love it. They have the movie playing on loop on the screens, and the front area is decorated with all sorts of props from the movie. The drink menu even has themed drinks, named after iconic people or lines in the movie. The drinks tend to be on the sweeter side, but definitely still hold their own in terms of alcohol content. Also, this bar experience was the first time I found out having an espresso martini in the evening will keep me up all night, which was truly a disappointing discovery.

We arrived around 5:00 PM and were greeted by a friendly and knowledgeable mixologist. While looking over the menu, he asked what I typically enjoy drinking. I told him I'm a big fan of an Old Fashioned, and he suggested an Eagle Rare Old Fashioned. It was, without question, one of the best Old Fashioneds I've ever had at any establishment. The balance of flavors was outstanding, and the attention to detail was obvious from the first sip. I was so impressed by both the drink and the overall experience that I asked him how he made it and what ingredients he used so I could try to recreate it at home. While I'm probably only 90% of the way there, I'll never quite match the perfection he achieved that evening. The atmosphere, service, and cocktails were all exceptional. If you're looking for a great speakeasy experience in Seattle, I highly recommend checking this place out.

The first time we ordered buffalo wings and cocktails and had a great time. The wings were crispy and the drinks were tasty and strong. The second time we ordered gochujang wings, tacos, and drinks. The wings were covered in just straight gochujang which was a little disappointing. We would have preferred more of a sauce, with some soy sauce and/or honey to balance it out. The tacos were pretty good, but our main issue is that the bartender forgot about my boyfriend's drink. We figured it was just a one-time thing because there was only one guy taking orders, making drinks, bringing everything else, but unfortunately we had the same thing happen again. Once again, we ordered a couple drinks and the bartender forgot about my boyfriend's drink. The place was pretty busy, and once again it was one guy handling everything. I don't know what the problem is, if they need a better system of taking orders or if they need better staffing. Either way, this place has a lot of potential and it's unfortunate to see it wasted with bad service.

    Wow, this review is 8 years old! I want to share my experience with Some Random Bar…read more In 2017, my mom and I visited Seattle for me to look at apartments and interview for jobs. We came here to eat because it was near our hotel. I was OBSESSED with the crab nachos. 2 months later, I moved out here all on my own. Now, 8 years later, I live nearby. Whenever someone is visiting, we come here. Whenever I run into a stranger visiting, i say they have to come here. My friends know if i'm celebrating anything, "are you getting crab nachos?!" It's become a part of my personality at this point. I have so much respect for the owners, the way they run their business and their honesty online. No one I've brought here has had a bad thing to say regardless of what they ordered. My go to is: Pull apart bread, crab nachos (with their hot sauce!! which, btw can i buy that by the bottle.. cause YUM) + whatever drink is calling my name (they rotate, but if you can get the pina colada you won't regret it). tldr; you'll regret NOT coming here.

I remembered that their drinks and bourbon selection/pricing used to be incredible. As with all things lately, prices have gone up on some of their rarer pours. The standard basic cocktails though were still reasonable and decently priced for the location. The atmosphere is great and service was pretty quick. The outdoor patio is still there which was a nice addition from 2019/2020 era. Some of their bourbons are still reasonably priced. Their food is pretty good. Would recommend the tacos, the burger, and carne asada. The nachos were not particularly for me, and also seemed to come out cold. Seemed to have cheese sauce instead of actual cheese. It was a cold day however. This place is mainly great for happy hour after work, but will come back and try dinner another time. Staff is great though. Really quaint and awesome spot to post up. good food, good service, good drinks, good selection, and still better pricing than most bars with what they have to offer. Will be going back again sooner. cheers

I would love to have a nice bar to patronize, but the bar food menu doesn't match bar food vibe. I am curious what dinner would be like here. Whoever owns this bar and whoever is curating this menu is absolutely a music head. No debate. And here's your gentle PSA: please pass that love of music AND hip-hop history to your waitstaff. Because what happened to me... was personal. There are three drinks on the menu that basically scream, "someone in here grew up on hip-hop and never emotionally left the 90s." We've got: ATLiens Aquemini 2 ____ a Butterfly (fill in the blank, but if you know, you KNOW Kendrick Lamar, 2015) Now listen this is not "aqua-mini." This is Outkast. Andre 3000. Big Boi. Southern rap royalty. It is pronounced Ah-kwim-in-eye The waitress looks me dead in my soul and says, "Oh, you mean the Aqua-mini." I was transported out of my body. Now here's the issue: I would've let it go...if a Kendrick Lamar song wasn't also on the menu. Because why are we confidently mispronouncing Outkast while casually referencing Pulitzer-level rap on the same drink list? At that point I realized I was surrounded by people under 34 who had never had to wait for TRL, decode a CD booklet, or defend Southern rap. No one in my group shared my emotional breakdown. Not one gasp. Prices & Drinks (important part): Let's talk about the $18 drink situation. I paid $18 for an Aquemini and received...vibes. Not buzz. At $18, I expect at least a whisper of alcohol. Instead, I got decorative hydration. My husband's Blueberry Smash? Better. More flavor. More personality. So now I'm sitting there thinking: I paid premium pricing for a drink I had to defend and pronounce correctly myself... and still left sober. Food: I was a little hungry and ordered fried shrimp (not on the online menu) The shrimp was fine. Just fine. The dipping sauce tried its best, and I respect that effort. Why is everything either wagyu, mussels, duck, or something you need a culinary degree to pronounce like gruyere but I can't just get a basic bar plate? Wagyu sliders, chicken bites would have been nice because I don't usually go out thinking, "Tonight feels like Wagyu and mussels at the bar." Service: I'm from Los Angeles, so I'm familiar with urban sketchy with a side of vibes. The activities near the parking spaces was very sketch. I was with a group of 8, including my husband so I felt protected by numbers. Inside, it was a Friday night but surprisingly empty. The music was loud enough to feel like a party, but quiet enough that you could still hear each other. We tried to rearrange seating to accommodate our group and the waitress said "I'm not walking around you, so keep this aisle clear." Which was fair, but also, there are gentler ways to say "I need this walkway." Or tell us the better way to set up seating in the empty bar. I didn't have a second drink frankly because I was never asked. Most places I go the waitress will come and ask if I want another drink. I don't live in Seattle, so this was my intro to night time bar life in the city. Sleepless in Seattle? I think in 2026 it's more like Sleepy in Seattle by looking at the emptiness.
