The restaurant was constructed in the 1800s and much of the original design remains, creating a unique and enjoyable atmosphere.

After living in New Haven for over three years, I finally tried this spot with my sister and boyfriend. The speakeasy-style cocktail lounge had a fantastic and unique atmosphere - I adored how dark and cozy it was. The wait staff were outstanding and the drinks were delicious. Since we had already eaten dinner, we only tried the pistachio cake, which was good, but the food menu looked amazing. I'll definitely have to try it next time! I highly recommend making a reservation for a weekend night, especially around 9 pm or later. We arrived at about 9:45 on a Saturday night, and if we didn't have a reservation, the wait would have been at least an hour. Update: I recently visited again and managed to take some photos of the drinks! The Bee's Knees and the Japanese whiskey drink were both fantastic. We also ordered a meat and cheese board, beer cheese, and fried cauliflower rice. The meat and cheese board was excellent value for the price.

Drinks are on the pricey side but again you're paying for that ambiance. I ordered a French 75 (not on the menu) but they made an excellent one. Only planned on getting one but decided to stay for another round because we liked it so much.

The place is lovely! Great ambience. Beautiful decor. Got mad Harry Potter vibes. The reason for the 2 stars it was because we got Literally kicked out. We had... read more The place is lovely! Great ambience. Beautiful decor. Got mad Harry Potter vibes. The reason for the 2 stars it was because we got Literally kicked out. We had a reservation for 2 and apparently there’s a 1hr limit. My friend and I only had time to have 2 of the many drinks we planned on having. Place was reasonably empty too. It’s not like there was a line out the door waiting to Come in. There were empty tables, and empty sits around the bar. Other customers were “kicked out” too. Food menu is
