It's a lively spot with a small but active dance floor, and overall the atmosphere had a lot of potential. Unfortunately, our group had a very uncomfortable experience involving racial discrimination from another patron. A man approached my boyfriend and asked what he was doing at the bar. When my boyfriend said he was trying to order drinks, the individual responded, completely unprompted, "Oh, they only serve white people here." The comment was inappropriate, upsetting, and totally unprompted. I immediately reported the incident to a bartender, but the response was disappointing. We were told there was nothing they could do, and there was no acknowledgment or apology for what we experienced. I didn't expect anything dramatic, but at the very least, "I'm sorry that happened but we can't do anything" a simple apology or a statement making it clear that racist behavior is not tolerated would have been appreciated considering how it dampened our night. Instead, the bartender made us feel stupid for mentioning it and was extremely dismissive. The lack of response from staff was just as troubling as the comment itself. Although the bar was fun for the rest of the time, I wouldn't feel comfortable coming here again.

A Wonderful Surprise for Two Very "Basic" Sushi People…read more My husband and I usually stick to the classics -- a California roll or something tempura‑based is about as wild as we get -- but this place had such great recommendations that we decided to be a little adventurous. I'm so glad we did. Reservations were simple to make online, and I loved that we could choose between bar seating, patio dining, or indoor dining. We chose indoors, and the atmosphere was beautiful: warm lighting, stylish decor, and a really inviting vibe. The staff was excellent from start to finish -- friendly, patient, and genuinely helpful. I ordered a whiskey cocktail recommended by our waitress (I wish I remembered the name), and it was absolutely delicious. We started with the gyoza, which were sublime -- perfectly crisp on the outside and tender inside. For maki, we tried the Experiment roll and the Ginger Shallot roll. Both were phenomenal. I was nervous my husband would hate them, but the ingredients blended so harmoniously that even he was impressed. Truly fantastic. We also ordered the bao buns, which my husband thought were incredibly juicy and flavorful. The only miss for me was the miso soup -- a bit too salty -- but everything else more than made up for it. We left absolutely stuffed, but also excited to come back and try even more adventurous rolls next time. For two people who usually play it safe with sushi, this place was a delightful step outside our comfort zone.

They have a great happy hour menu for food and drinks. The ceviche and chips were delicious. We ordered the tacos, carne asada and chicken to try them both. They were good but nothing to brag about. I noticed one waitress sitting at the bar and chatting with what I think is a personal friend. There were little fruit flies buzzing around. Probably from bar area. The place could be cleaner. The rest rooms needed cleaning. The place needs larger attractive sign outside on street to draw in more customers. Larger happy hour menu. Had more color on the inside or better decor. The possibility is endless. Bar needs attention. I had friends talk about going as well and agree with suggestions.

The ambiance is well created with the dim lights, lit bar, and sounds of ice being shaken. My fiancé and I were seated right at the middle of the bar upon opening, and our bartender named Chris (?) was extremely welcoming with a sense of humor. He gave us an ample of amount of time to review the menus. We first got an IPA and the Love me Knot. For food, we ordered some Cajun fries and the party wings with red chimichurri sauce. The wings were fantastic! The fries were very crunchy, and I wish they were a tad bit softer. For our next round of drinks, we got the Old Fashioned and the Bee's Knees. The drinks were right on par. We left after a few hours and found ourselves quite satisfied. It was a fun experience and the monthly change of words above the liquor wall is always a conversation starter. Needless to say, we'll be back!
