Moonshiner

"The city’s answer to the Prohibition-style speakeasy is Moonshiner. At this hidden spot in the 11th (push the metal door of the walk-in fridge in the back of pizzeria Da Vito), there’s 1920s jazz playing, Belle Epoque wallpaper, and exposed brick. Snag a table with the leather booths or sit at the bar. The drink list is heavy on whisky cocktails, and very fancy old whiskies you can order neat. Continuing with the times, there’s even an indoor smoking room, where you can have a cigar alongside other tourists and locals who love whisky, too. Just heads up, it gets standing-room-only crowded on weekend evenings. " - tanisha townsend

"Your first thought will be, "Am I in the right place?" and "Can I order a slice or do I have to get a whole pie?" The bar's located behind an operating small pizza parlor. The dark and moody Moonshiner is all speakeasy, complete with Art Deco furnishings like etched mirrors and old record players. The place skews younger (20s and 30s), a mix of local Parisians, expats and tourists. Most are serious about their booze though. The menu features a few classic cocktails, like an Old Fashioned, but the majority of the suggestions come with fun names, featuring a mix of interesting syrups and liqueurs; on a recent visit, we saw names like "Money Time" and "Back to Basil." - Sara Lieberman
