When I walked in this space my first instinct was upscale strip club...lol. It just had that vibe. Or it could have been that couple that were going at it at the next table. But since her performance seemed lackluster, I did not throw a $20 her way.
You are led through some velvet curtains to the actual bar area after you find the actual entrance that is in an alleyway. There are a few tables around and seating at the bar. I wouldn't take a big group here - maybe 2-3 people. it lends itself more the a quiet and intimate atmosphere. As we were here later in the evening - I believe after 10pm on a weekday - we didn't encounter any lines/waiting. We walked right in. From other reviews it seems the weekends (no surprise) can have line ups.
The cocktails are interesting and are served with decorative garnishes and were pretty strong. The prices are pretty reasonable considering they are strong. The service was ok - a bit slow and unenthusiastic.
