I absolutely loved it. I have never been to a bar where i’ve been so surprised as to how good the food was (the mushroom pizza in particular). We were on the rooftop so, it was a cool vibe. The view is of the river and you can’t see the main strip which makes it cuter. The cocktails were nice. There’s nice photo areas too (flower wall). It was all pretty cheap too which was such a bonus.

A beautiful gem of a cocktail bar. Perfectly lighted, really comfortable, great soundtrack and expertly crafted cocktails. A few bar bites available that were quite good. If you want to be with somebody as opposed to being seen with somebody, a truly lovely spot.
