"A compact, speakeasy-style spot hidden on a residential street in Federal Hill that draws a stylish, energetic crowd; the vibe is low-key lit with subdued lighting, loud music, a DJ spinning hip-hop, bartenders who dance while shaking cocktails, and bourbon-forward drinks like a Violet Beauregarde. Food collaborations with a James Beard–nominated chef bring popular items—think spicy fried chicken tenders with mint-miso ranch and sandwich and martini offerings tied to the chef’s project—making it a buzzy nightlife destination as much for its inventive bar program as for its lively atmosphere." - Ellen Carpenter
