    Cool and swanky place. Small inside so try to make a reservation to ensure a spot. The theme is vinyl records with a cool display, so expect the volume that comes with that. It’s a bar and the only food option is beef jerky (just, FYI). Service was attentive, fun, yet not overbearing at all.

    Great music. Hip hop was spinning while we were there. Had high balls to start then some of the specialty cocktails. Good but probably shoulda stuck with high balls. Lots of interesting bottles to check out. Look forward to next time.

    The place is beautiful, but the workers are EXCELLENT. I was sitting at the bar when a man next to me (stranger) did not get the hint. The bartenders have telepathy and they helped me feel safe, I could tell they would definitely have helped if needed, if the situation escalated. I am so grateful for the staff here! And they really care about the drinks they serve you!

    Definitely a perfect pre-game destination for a date! The BASA Boys Paloma is one of the best cocktails I've ever had (and I've had a few). Underwhelming for me was the Spicy Senpai, but my wife loved the strawberry calpico drink so much she ordered two.
