Let the experienced bar staff lead you through a couple of rounds using your favorite spirit. Like gin ? Choose Bols Genever. Delicious!
A good spot on the downtown San Jose cocktail bar circuit. No trendy decor, just dive bar feel with good specialty cocktails .
Solid, quaint, moderately noisy ; quick service and pleasant staff !
Honey bee smash is my fav so far if you want a fruity and fresh summer drink .
This is a really cool spot in terms of atmosphere, but I've NEVER had slower service at a bar in my life. And it's not even crowded .
Great value ! Drinks are good and awesome service!
Try the old fashioned with Japanese whisky .
The men's bathroom doesn't lock, or it is broken. I walked in on a guy who was dropping a bomb lol. And I locked it, and someone else walked in LOL BE CAREFUL.
Mary was awesome! She was a great bartender . All of her drinks were on point!
Love the cocktail menu . Ask for the state of grace shot, it's incredible!
Bartenders are great. Get the Moscow Mule and Le Grande Negroni !
Gets packed quick, be prepared to wait for a drink. They are tasty though.
Great house jazz band on Sunday evenings.
All the drinks ???? ????
You are not ready for how amazing the Bourbon Bread Pudding is!
Go for the jazz band on Sundays !
Wine , beer , and specialty cocktails . 55 has it all!
Moscow mule .
A local hangout spot that actually doesn't feel ratchet in San Jose
Great Jazz band on Sunday , May 5th!
Bourbon Bread Pudding is amazing!!!
Good malt menu
Asians doing shots.
Live music on Sundays
Japanese whiskey served in good volume, but terribly ugly ice. Good effort.
Live music on Sundays
Sidecar is my fav!!!
Great place
Trendy little bar . Knowledgable bartenders . Empty before 8pm on a Friday night. Meh food.
fun on mondays
Service is very questionable.
Great place for craft cocktails. Food is good too. Small plate style. Go see Ryan, the bartender! - Erica Ota
Best cocktails ever - Cansu Altıntaş
Enjoy the carne asada tacos or burrito. The chips and salsa are a bargain at $0.50 and the ORANGE SAUCE makes the whole meal complete. I go at least once a week. - Victor Gaxiola
Super friendly bartender. Favorite place to order Hibiki Japanese Harmony. - Justine Tai
Solid ice cream for a cheap price! Love the snickerdoodle! You can also get a half sandwich if you want a smaller size! - Joseph Le
