"They don 't even deserve a star. It 's a cocktail bar with bartenders who only know how to follow pre-defined recipes, not make true drinks. 5 of us ordered drinks and 3 of the people liked what they got. But there were two of us that got the 'Terrible Love ' and yes, they were terrible. We let the bartender know that it wasn 't good and she told us that she can 't take it off the bill. We said that 's fine, even though we didn 't agree with that customer service. For a 2nd drink, we asked for the dealer 's choice but let her know that we didn 't like the flavor profile of the 'Terrible Love '. She bought back 2 drinks and told us that she just realized that both the drinks she made were Death Co drinks so had similar styles. Guess what? Those drinks also weren 't good. So we didn 't drink any of the drinks. We asked for the bill and of course, she charged for all the drinks. We told her that we understand if she wants to charge for the first (although again it 's poor customer service) but why is she charging for the 2nd. Her excuse was that she followed the recipe and we asked for the dealer 's choice, plus that 's just their policy. The issue? She doesn 't actually know how to make drinks and is just following pre-defined recipes. At the end of the day, a true cocktail bar has mixologists that can actually make drinks and understand how to adjust for flavor profiles versus just following a few provided recipes. Also, this is a hospitality business. If the customers don 't like what you deliver, it 's normal to apologize and replace it without charging. Don 't make excuses and blame it on following the recipe or non-existent policies. Long story short...the vibe is cool but the drinks are not worth it. Maybe we ordered the wrong drinks but still, it 's a service business with terrible service. So it 's definitely not a place we will go back to."
