Defeng Bob NIUDecember 9, 2018The Service Super JH is really hiding too good! uuuuuuuuuuuMany times, I didn't know there was a shop here. The shop was perfectly integrated with the wall nearbyIt's good to have a chat.

“A modern take on a vintage dive bar” is how this sleek Beijing bar likes to describe itself. Signatures include the New Fashioned – walnut-infused rum with cacao bitters – or Black Forest Martini.

Damian BayonaJune 5, 2015The Scorpion Tiki comes in a sweet tiki cup - great to match your Hawaiian party shirt. Free wifi and lounge area up top

Nathalie De ClercqMarch 12, 2013The owner is SO SEXY! If you manage to squeeze his butt while he's walking around he'll give you a free premium tequila shot! He's the best! #lovethisplace

Orc LönnApril 10, 20172 customers 3 bartenders. Took'em 24 mins to mix 1 of their signature c'tails because only 1 knew the recipe + 2 of 3 didn't know what a Perfect Martini is. Good drinks. Nice vibe. Lacking knowledge.UpvoteDownvote
BeeeeDecember 16, 2017Fine cocktails, yet I don't really feel comfortable about the minimum fee on the 2nd floor.

Ian SullivanJuly 26, 2014I found the seasonal drinks unreliable. To be safe, stick with the classics. They make great Negronis and Manhattan's, each in 5 interesting variations.UpvoteDownvote
Henry YinJanuary 24, 2013Impressive! Quality drinks and old-fashioned ambience, a place for ladies and gentlemen who behave like adults and appreciate a decent tipple!Upvote4Downvote
Serene TanMay 17, 2013Squeeze the sexy owner's ass and you get a free shot of premium tequila! He's awesome!! Btw, if you're a girl I recommend Dark & Fruity. Can't have enough of it!UpvoteDownvote
David DyTangMarch 12, 2016Cocktails and punch are excellent. Go for the Chicago Fizz, or even bigger with the Earl Grey.UpvoteDownvote
All the cocktails here are pretty spacial. Must try the oyster as well, its very fresh & testy!

Peter JohnDecember 5, 2014I love the Caribbean Old-fashioned here. The service and atmosphere is good. A bit too smokey, but a great hangout.UpvoteDownvote
Great little speakeasy bar with amazing cocktails. They know what they are doingUpvote7Downvote
Andreas ReutherAugust 6, 2016It's a nice place with good cocktails, but not as fantastic as the reviews suggests. Service was slow. Not bad at all, but not my top pick. Mokihi and Miles are better.

Jens SSeptember 22, 2014Great drinks and a decor that makes you feel you could be in NYC.Upvote1Downvote
Shagi DefoeMarch 29, 2013Great location Great Drinks only let down is the amount , I reckon a third more in the glass would make it a lot more appealing.UpvoteDownvote
Adam McNamaraMay 16, 2014The sweetest bartender from Hunan made me custom drinks all night when I told her I liked cinnamon.UpvoteDownvote
Era FuchikDecember 16, 2016No smoking inside, yay! Hate smelling like an ashtray. Cool lol spot for a good cocktail in BeijingUpvoteDownvote
adoraSeptember 27, 2015By najie bar. Drinks are good but prob go for the ambiance more than anything. Half people dressed up and half aren't.UpvoteDownvote
Even PayAugust 13, 2013Great music usually. Can be absurdly loud or bad on Fri & Sat if someone's DJingUpvoteDownvote
Ask Warren for his recommendations, awesome cocktailsUpvoteDownvote
This place is straight out of Mad Men with the decor and olden timey drinks. Go here for the atmosphere, the drinks are expensive.Upvote2Downvote
MichalJanuary 3, 2014Good drinks with real alcohol, but a bit heavy on the ice. Also it's smoking friendly, which was a big disappointment, I hate leaving a bar stinking of cigarettes.UpvoteDownvote
Francesca Hanshing UrraMarch 30, 2013Nice place. It's a shame that they don't have a decent list of wineUpvoteDownvote
Cheryl HOctober 17, 2014Missing preparedness and service since last last time I came. Forgetting drinks, not taking drinks correctly, telling us something is on the menu but the chef isn't there (!) it was only 9:30pm...UpvoteDownvote
D' LuffyDecember 5, 2013Nice place to mingle with friends... Need to review their pricing. Not competitive enough. Expensive!!!UpvoteDownvote

"Super chic and modern. Get there early or make reservations because it gets packed quite quickly on weekends."
An Xiao - 7.5
"Burgers are awesome. Milkshakes are pretty solid too. Wifi: drinknow"
Justin Saucedo - 7.0
"This bar no longer feels like a speakeasy the way it has been described. No password needed. There is a sign on the outside of the building and you just walk right up to it. Drinks were really good."
