Lovely, easygoing bar that keeps things refreshingly unpretentious—you ask, they deliver. The mixologists really tune into your flavor preferences and craft drinks that hit exactly what you’re craving. While the presentation isn’t the main focus, the flavors are bold, balanced, and seriously potent—we were feeling it after just one round. They definitely don’t skimp on the ingredients. If you’re lucky, you might even get a splash of premium Moutai (yes, the kind that can run $400+ a bottle) worked into your drink. Come here to let your boozy senses run wild and enjoy a fun, slightly unexpected cocktail experience.

Amazing spot. Highly reccomend!! Very dark and intimate vibe. I would reccomend coming early and get a spot at the bar. It got busy quick. We arrived around 6:30 and shortly after it was full and there was a lineup out the door. All the bartenders seemed wonderful. We had Dylan and he was great, took our ideas and tuned them into delicious cocktails and mocktails. Can't wait to come back!! My wife and I had 2 custom drinks each and out bill was around $100. So pricier spot, but vibe and drinks are worth it!! 👌 I wish I got better pictures I just snapped quick and wanted to drink, but they are so dark! I dont know if they serve food we had juat eaten.

Lovely drinks - definitely on the expensive side but well worth it for the taste, ambience, service. Came here to celebrate a special occasion before dinner reservations and had 3 drinks. The bartender nailed our preferences and each drink got better after the other. Definitely unique bar worth checking out! It does get busy so come a bit early or expect to wait on weekend nights.

Great experience here! I asked for an espresso martini with a chocolate orange-like taste because I had that at another bar and really liked it. It was so much better here. I didn't know what to expect but I was very pleasantly surprised. The servers were also very attentive and the prices pretty standard for Toronto. Not too loud for conversation either.

This is a fantastic spot for a pre or post dinner drink. There's no menu and you tell the waiter about your likes and they make something just for you. It's a fun twist on exploring cocktails and they have always hit the mark with what they've made for me. I wouldn't go here is you just want something standard, but if you're looking for an adventure this is the place.
