An amazing Speakeasy located in an alley. The whole vibe is nothing short of satisfactory. The drinks are worth trying. The edamame was however too salty and the grilled squid was so miniature in size lol, I could’ve eaten 10 of that portion size. Overall, it was a pretty awesome experience and I’d for sure go back again for the drinks

Delicious food, tasty drinks, nice ambiance and view of California adventure and the firework show. A little pricey but expected given the area. They do not have a kids menu but accommodated with a cheese pizza for the kid in our group.
