This speakeasy style bar and restaurant in Fremont has really cool decor and vibe. The booths were a bit old and creaky, but they were still comfortable and it fit the vibe.
I'll preface my food review by saying my stomach was a little upset, so I might have had a different reaction than on another day. We ordered the Brussels sprouts and lamb meatballs to share, I got the burger and my partner got the beef rib. The appetizers were good, nothing spectacular but solid. My burger was pretty basic and heavy, not that appetizing -- fries were good. The beef rib was almost entirely fat and comes on its own, so for $25 you're not getting much food.
The cocktails were both very good-- we got the Mort and the Purple Flamingo.
Service was a bit lacking -- our server took our drink order but didn't come back to take a food order, when they came back eventually to refill waters seemed caught off guard by us asking to order food. Then they walked away as soon as I finished speaking (I ordered the appetizers and my entree) before my partner had a chance to place his entree order, so we had to flag the server down later to get his order in.
Overall, I thought this place was ok. I would give it another chance due to the vibe and the cocktails -- also interested to check out the live entertainment!
