Cozy, dark speakeasy featuring a secret door, imaginative cocktails & elevated American bar food.
Located in the packing district in anaheim, this hidden speak easy was a fantastic experience. Table or bar reservations are required and fill up during peak hours. The establishment is small (about 9 booths and bar seating) but exquisitely decorated in posh vintage era decor. Its dark and moody inside, creating a cozy ambiance. The service was excellent and attentive. The food was delicious altho minimal options. The entrees were more like an appetizer than a full meal. Drinks are a work of art. Using an array of spices, herbs flowers and fruits to create many exotic flavors and mixes. Not your typical bar menu or commercial beer selections. They carry absenth and have created mixed drinks as well as the traditional 1920's serving method. Music selection took you back to the early Century's era. Even getting the check was a cute nod to yester year. I loved the experience and altho a bit pricy, well worth the $$ to be transported back to a time for at least 90 minutes (time limit on your visit). Hidden entrance and exits were fun too.
Great place for fancy cocktails. Food was prettt good. We had crab cakes (okay), artichoke dip (tasty but would have preferred chips over pita bread), and scallops (delicious).
Excellent find for creative cocktails and a well thought out ambience. Wife and I checked it out after it kept popping up on my instagram and was worth the stop. I tried the absinth experience which was something I’ve never seen, and my wife went with a mezcal cocktail. Bar staff was attentive and friendly, place was clean and I look forward to bringing friends here.
Definitely an experience. A secret entrance awaits leading to a cozy bar. Clear your schedule and take in the experience. Enjoy the ambiance, excellent service and friendly company. You MUST make reservations because of the limited seating/space. Please make reservations online, read and follow the Rules and come on time! Nearby neighborhood street parking is free. Closer lot parking is available for a fee. It ranges from $5-8 for all day parking. We will be back. Thank you for making my 50th birthday so special! It's definitely worth a drive down to APD. A great atmospheric place for a day outing or date night!
Awesome experience it’s made to look like a speakeasy you enter through Sake crates, it’s dark inside, no windows, candles, dimly lit, etc. The service was excellent they specialize in Absinthe and have several types. The server did not let us know that he could light it like they do traditionally so he did it without the lighting, but still an interesting service.
