The atmosphere is that of a speakeasy with dark wood and minimal lighting. Wonderful handcrafted cocktails all with a history backstory are offered. Our server was very knowledgeable of the cocktails and we indulged in a couple of mezcal concoctions that did not disappoint. We ordered pizzas, one of which was the Verde on a GF cauliflower crust. The flavor was delicious. My husband ordered the Carni pizza. My only complaint was that the GF pizza came warm rather than hot, most likely because it was done before the Carni pizza. This is our second visit to Bar One. We will definitely be back.

It was my friends birthday and the entire team at O-Ku made her feel extra special. The host, the busers, wait staff, etc everyone said happy birthday…it was even on the menu. And they brought a birthday dish that was delicious, South End Shrimp, order it!!! Also they were out of her favorite roll (potato roll) bc they have to roll it before shift it is so intricate, we were bummed but moved on everything was so good. Towards the end of the meal they brought out a potato roll they rolled especially for us! Amazing! I rarely give words reviews but Mayling and team were awesome. Thank you!!
