Bar · 60 guests · January 2026

We had the speakeasy Bootleg room downstairs. Definitely enjoyed our privacy. Bar staff were very friendly and accommodating. Drinks were nice and strong !Food was great! My personal favorites were guacamole and chicken. Communication with management was easy. Eddie was very helpful in trying to accommodate our needs. The party went without a hitch.

There were some minor technical difficulties at the beginning but it did not affect our party. We understand there was a pop up event taking place at the same time, and there were a lot of guests at the bar upstairs, I still wish women's bathroom was kept a little bit more tidy.
