Alex SmithApril 22, 2010go during happy hour for half off all that delicious food. post up at the bar. the slingers are very nice
Joe BertinoMarch 12, 2011Order an old fashioned, hold the peat. Also, ask for Hannah, she's the best.
- Cowrie ShellOctober 10, 2009Come for happy hour (5.30pm). Start ordering at the top of the appetizer and cocktail menus. See how far down you get before 7pm.
Langston MercierJuly 8, 2010If your gonna come here more than once, definitely makes more sense to buy Bottles, as opposed to drinks
Jeremy HuylebroeckOctober 31, 2010come for the happy hour to enjoy reduced prices on several menu items. Avoid beer on tap...
Aaron WalzJune 9, 2012Crazy expensive food. Good, but... Stick with the whiskey! Also gets so crowded
Rachael KingJune 13, 2012So disappointed after everything I heard. Whiskey selection is great but the sushi was at best a 4/10. Not fresh, very fishy, awful color. No thank you.
Get some Suntory on the rocks. Love the ice cubes here.
