Called Thursday and made reservations for Friday evening. They were very accommodating. Loved that the bar was hidden away in a building where you felt like you were transported. The hostess greeted us immediately and escorted us to our table. The table was set up and ready to go. The menu had many things I wanted to tried. Had the pickled leeks. My sister loved the radishes in it. We both had the two different raw beef dishes and shared. My friend had the Chicken Curry. We all loved the chicken on the stick with peanuts sauce. Was so good. Had non alcoholic options as well which I really appreciated. I had the non alcoholized sparkling rose. The prices was very reasonable and quality of the food was amazing. Definitely recommend and would go back.
The food was really good! Fairly priced for the portion and soo delicious. The cocktails were also really cute and unique. The vibe was so cozy too!
I’d wanted to check this place out for a long time and I’m happy I did. The music was pretty loud, but the vibe was good. The drinks were pretty good as well but no standouts. I was there with family and there were six of us and I think we had tried almost all of the cocktail menu by the time we left. There wasn’t really one that I didn’t like. We never tried the food, but I’ll be coming back to give it a shot. The service was a bit lacking, although it was a little busy in there. We had to flag down our servers a few times to get more drinks after sitting there for some time with empty glasses.
One of my favourite speakeasy style bars in Calgary. They have a great selection of drinks and Vietnamese food at an affordable price. Always have a great time coming here, with great memories attached!
Amazing Cocktails - Great ambiance & service This place was really fun There’s a very unassuming speak easy doorway to enter and then an exceptionally fun ambiance inside. We had lots of small plates including salmon spring rolls, wings, pork belly banh mi, pineapple stir fry, crispy crepes, dried squid and satay chicken vermicelli. They were all really good and perfect for Vietnamese food lovers. I would highly recommend the spring rolls, banh mi and crispy crepes. These were unique items and were so tasty. The dried squid was a little fishy but authentically Asian - I would stay away from this if you are maybe not used to this kind of dish. The cocktails were on a different level. There’s a huge menu and everything looks amazing. Most cocktails are tiki style and served in fancy glasses. There were plenty of food items on this menu that I wanted to try and I will need to return multiple times to work my way through the huge selection of drinks on the menu. Our server, Tatiana, was very nice and spent a lot of her time at the table giving recommendations and chatting. We really enjoyed the experience here and will absolutely go back. 100% would recommend.
