Amazing space with a super cool vibe lots of students and after workers due to location and its great happy hour . $4pizza $20 cocktail jugs ...just bring patience because service is a wee bit slow

Pramod Nair

The best bar and the best bar manager. What more do you want?

Praveen Vijayan

Nice bar with good happy hour prices. Gets really crowded on Friday evenings and it can be very difficult to get a seat.

Robz H

Location is great, food is good, service is okay, deals for work groups is less than desirable, the sticky floor that instantly adheres to absolutely everything that touches it is total bollocks.

Samurdha Jayasinghe

$4 pizzas from 7 pm-10 pm. The cocktails by the jug tends to have a little too much ice so better go for individual drinks or a jug of beer .

Kristian Williams

Amazing happy hour , can't go past the $8 jugs, and good food to complement.

Douglas Maciente

Great pizza ! Amazing place

Sha Mae Nyon

Cheap during happy hour ! $8 per jug for beer . Good environment.

Nice place to unwind on summer days. Balcony overlooks the state library . I love their chili fries ! But the tap-beer was a bit warm the last time I came here :(

Josh Wayman

Go straight through to the balcony out the back. It's nice there.

On the whole, overpriced tiny portioned Asian food that's just average. However, pork belly was yummy w an awesome crackling . Buuut...great bar vibe & the balcony IS pretty cool. Just drink don't eat!
