We went for the sippin Santa cocktails and were pleasantly surprised they were only $12 on Sundays. The decorations were very cute and the drinks were good. The server seemed new and a little lost but overall she was very friendly

I'd always passed by this place but never knew what it was. It was a cute little hole in the wall. My wife and just wanted to get drinks, which were delicious, and ended up going for some of their empanadas, which were also delicious. Drinks are good, food options are a little small, but all in all was a great spot.

Great pop-up, ambiance was done very well. Drinks were fun! Food was a little average and would have appreciated more room- they crammed as many tables as they could in. With customers within a foot of each other.
