    Cool vibe, neat concept. Just be sure to make a reservation or get there when they open! Ben was great! And the hot dog was delicious.

    Have heard so much about this spot and have always wanted to go here so finally made it happen. We visited on a Monday and despite it being a weekday, there was a wait for about 30mins. We was greeted by Adam (had to use the cute little red phone to dial to enter) and was seated by the bathroom. At first glance, I wasn't too pleased with the place; seemed like a regular spot especially since we were just returning from Paradise Lost. Nevertheless, I guess we were there for the experience. We expressed to both Adam and Kay that we wished not to be seated by the bathroom and within a few minutes they were able to accommodate us to a much more spacious, non-smelly area. Kay, our waiter was very kind and helpful. Didn't have any food as we ate at the hot dog spoke before entering. Overall, it was a nice experience since I hadn't been to a speakeasy in a while but I still don't understand the hype.

    This speakeasy was super unique. Hidden within a hot dog store, you have to call them within a telephone booth. We had to ring a couple times before they picked up, but once they did a back door within the telephone booth opened up to reveal the speakeasy. I walked in with a party of 6 but I think we got super lucky because a party was just leaving when we got there. The actual speakeasy was dark and decorated with cabin-esque vibes, featuring animals and portraits on the walls. They had a superrr extensive menu, I don't know if I've ever seen such a big one. I ended up ordering the quechua key and it was so so yummy. I would definitely come again, very unique experience!

    We love going to speakeasies, and this one got rave reviews and justifiably so as the ambience, staff and drinks are amazing. We did make a reservation on Resy, for 7:25 on a Sunday. As we entered the staff was great as we wanted to take a video and pictures as we went in through the phone booth. They seated us at a round, very comfortable dark booth and we started checking out the menu. We had 2 rounds of drinks and they were all great. Our fav was the expresso martini. Also ordered the tater tots and the impossible hotdog. We were shocked that even the food was great. Tots were crispy with cheese and bacon and the impossible hotdog was the best I have ever had. We loved the experience and the staff was great. We asked for drink suggestions and she was able to describe each drink and gave us some info on the establishment. This was definitely a great way to enjoy an evening and would recommend it for anyone.
