At first I thought "how is it a speakeasy when their name is right there?". You gotta check it out to find out.
Lunch was empty. Prix fixe menu (24) only. Drinks (8-10) found in a novel. Ordered the lobster imperial (lobster wrapped in wonton skin and deep fried), beef tartare, and their dessert du jour. Lobster was tender, beef tartare mixed in a spicy mayo with 3 bread crusts served up with perfect sweet potato fries, while the dessert du jour was a mix of red velvet cake, vanilla cake and various mousses and creams. Bees Knees drink (gin, citron, miel, blank d'oeuf) was light and not very strong.
Gotta keep it brief to maintain the mystery. Definitely worth the visit. They tip post tax using the CC machine if you choose %. Seating area seats 50. Bathroom area is chic balcony. Great photo ops throughout the place. Check-in and get 2 shots free with your first drink purchase.
