At Wonderland, the blond bartender with short hair knows where a secret after-hours bar is located. Whether you're brave enough to go is up to you. Read more

Beware of the hipster casting sleepy spells. After 20 minutes of waiting to be served, the hipster ignored us and all of us became suddenly tired.

I ordered a vegan skillet meal & it came 2 hours later. On top of that long wait, it also came with bacon. Get your shit together Wonderland! Not eating here again.

This place sucks- so overcrowded with bad dancers. The DJ played the same set as the other week. Get a new DJ!
