    Came here to have a nightcap. We love this place because it is a speakeasy and you have to be let into the bar. The bartender is very friendly outgoing and it will even make you what he calls a dealer's choice. We like to sit outside on the patio is very nice cool evening just enjoy enjoying my while. I'm in the schnapps beverage. Will definitely be back.

    We love to stop at The Still every time we visit Tucson. It's a neat little spot. The resident bartender, Robert, has the perfect personality for this job. He knows his drinks, makes them with perfection and pride. Is there something that is not on the drink menu that you'd like? Robert has got you taken care of. So why a 3 star rating you ask?...it's because of neglect. We like to sit outside on the patio, partly because we can enjoy a cigar with our cocktail. The patio has become run down and dirty. It's a storage place for extra furniture and firewood for the pizza oven. The sofas that they have are dirty and broken down. (see pic) Tables are left dirty and not bussed. Just have a busser drop by every 15 minutes, it would be a big first step. I have no problem spending $20 a pop for a good cocktail, which Robert provides, but you need to give me a decent atmosphere to enjoy it. Get rid of the crap on the patio...replace the furniture, look at the lighting, maybe a plant or two. The Still's patio could be awesome...but it's hurting. By the way, the inside bar could use a little cleaning as well.

    I love a good speakeasy and this was close to my house. I requested a reservation early Saturday night, received a text confirmation, and waited in our area. Our mixologist, Robert, led us to the secret door. There was a small indoor seating area and an outdoor area with lighting. The focus is the bar and the top shelf alcohol they serve. I thought the speakeasy was fairly new and found out that it's been around 11 years! Robert was great, knowledgeable, and tells dad jokes. If you are adventurous, try the weekly special and the dealer's choice. You can also order the full menu from Vero Amore.

    This place is SO cool. It's a true speakeasy, hidden in the back of a restaurant. It has a large patio area with space heaters and a smaller indoor seating area. The coolest part is that the bartenders are able to expertly craft custom cocktails based on whatever your heart desires (pop culture, a vibe, a certain taste, etc.) Watch out though, the drinks can be expensive and rack up quick.

    Much more elaborate than other speakeasies in the are. We were directed by text to stand in a specific area of the restaurant. We were greeted by staff and brought to an area far from the regular dining floor and through ran inconspicuous wall. The bartender was very knowledgeable and was able to make curated drinks from our taste needs. The restaurants full menu was also above which was nice. There was a nice sitting area outdoors with fire pits however we did not have jackets to weather the 40 degrees so maybe next time. The music was instrumentals 60's to 80's which was fun. Would come again.

    We love a good speakeasy and the Still was no exception! From the reservation request process, to the arrival and seating - it was prohibition meets 21st century. Robert is some kind of cocktail wizard constructing creations that will have all of your senses exploding with intrigue! I started with a drink on the menu but gave him the heads up I'd want a Dealers Choice after. His response "heard". And heard it was- my next crafted cocktail was exactly what I was craving. We ordered a plate of fried ravioli from the restaurant and it was tasty enough we will have to go for a full meal next time. If you're looking for a great date night with an old school twist- this is a great bet!

    Definitely an experience! The ambiance of course is very cool, just how you'd expect a speakeasy to be. Robert was working when we went, and he was great to chat with. He shared his knowledge of the bar, and spirits in general throughout the night. The drinks are definitely more expensive than we are used to, though they are very creative and a labor of love. What's cool is that they have a rotating menu and make their own bitters and syrups in-house which also makes it something special. Worth a try, definitely!

    Rude as how they treated a couple return customers! The still Years ago, my husband and I found this quaint little speakeasy, and the people were so excited to have us and to see us but this was not the case this last time we visited. This is a reservation only, although I was excited to see the woman from years ago, she couldn't really give a dilly that I was there. Needless we didn't have a reservation and after that treatment, I was glad! Maybe sometimes a pretending goes a long way, for Christ sake, we sought this place out after 4 years ago! Just a warm greeting would've been perfect. LIKE, thanks for stopping by. It was nice to see you again!

    My husband and I have lived in Tucson for several years and had never been here! We stumbled upon this place on a busy Saturday night. The dim lighting and speakeasy vibes, coupled with the highly entertaining and hilarious bartenders Cassandra and Robert made this a unique and special experience. I got the Flumph which is their take on a mimosa. It was a delight and I appreciated the hints orange blossom. My husband got the Cloak of Rohan which was orange bitter forward and a definite "sipper," as it was very strong. When we noticed they had yellow chartreuse (a rare liquor find), we ordered a cocktail off the menu called Naked & Famous. A lesser known cocktail, but Cassandra was able to make it and it was our favorite drink of the night. One last thing to note is that both bartenders are creative experts in craft cocktail making and we're serving up "dealers choice" drinks all night which were unique. If you're open to trying something innovative, this is the place to check out! (Just let them know if you have any specific liquor preferences)

    I cannot say enough good things about The Still. It's my group's go to place for birthdays as a special treat. Is it cheap? No- but also it shouldn't be relative to the quality you are receiving. The dynamic duo who run it are brilliant mixologists who use high quality ingredients, including house made liqueurs. It's clear they love their job and their craft. I believe they still have their own app menu, but you can also order from Vero's full menu.

You absolutely must try Pam's Spicy Lemonade--Hornitos with thai chili and mint. I've also had coffee-infused liquors here before that you'll rarely find anywhere else. I'm not a smoker, but I get stoked for their enclosed smoking patio with a couple old arcade cabinets (I like Centipede!)

I will shamelessly have a couple $3 High Lifes. There's only one big bar in the center of the lobby, but service is generally fast. It's dimly lit and can be tightly packed, but you'll still have fun. Good for date night or groups of four or less. No food, but once in a blue moon you'll find a truck parked out front. Overall, a solid Tucson staple.

Everything is made differently with less flavor and finesse. The lettuce wraps used to be standout now they're dry and under seasoned.

It was not fried like katsu but more so like a battered chicken breast. It always was not pounded flat into a uniform piece of meat but was more so a badly butchered breast that fell apart when you ate it. It was dry, under seasoned, fried way too hard and was stringy. I'd come for drinks and completely pass on the food all together. Not worth the high price tag associated with it. Karaoke DJ was stellar!!!!! Kept the party going and was so fun!!!!!

It's a fun and also elegant atmosphere with the zebra theme clearly exemplified across the space. I would have to say this is one of the coziest bars I've been to, the furniture and seating is really supportive of a long-term visit. There are other levels, lower and an upper level besides the main space, but be aware that if there are parties, they can typically take up different areas. Our bartender, Sarah was fantastic! The way that she handled all of the guests and the busy field was incredible, so calm and collected, and furthermore making some really incredible drinks. Heads up that the online drink menu is not the current drink menu, I couldn't remember all the names of our drinks and put those in the photo captions, so when I checked on the website, the menu was showing something different other than what I saw at the bar. Out of several places I've been to, I'd say the mixture of flavors and details in the drinks are quite unique. I'll be back for more one day

We were greeted by a giant statue of a unicorn zebra and of course took a selfie. We then went to the bar area and absolutely loved the dark speakeasy vibes. Burk, the handsome man with a shiny head, was at the bar. He handed us a drink menu that contained fun drink names like Death of a Unicorn. The drinks tasted good and had a lovely presentation. Mine even came in a zebra mug. We also learned that this bar has both an upstairs and downstairs area. We enjoyed a couple of drinks and headed home. This place left such an impression that we have been back two times since. On another occasion we had Nate the bartender. He had a lovely personality and accommodated all of the guests that came in near closing. We enjoyed Santa's Banana Hammock and Unicorn Ski Accident. I would definitely recommend this hidden gem. I look forward to seeing where this place goes. It has a ton of potential for special events with the basement area. P.s. It's also a boutique hotel. You could always book a room and enjoy dreams downstairs without having to drive
