    Hidden gem! Japanese owned cocktail bar and jazz lounge. Delicious cocktails made with precision. Didn't try the food, but it smelled great. Live jazz Mondays & Wednesdays. Open late (for Tribeca :))

    Almost hidden away down a dark staircase. But what awaits is jazz music and some amazing Japanese inspired cocktails. A hidden gem in TriBeCa!

    Pricey happy hour but it's worth it since the place never gets too crowded. Loved the chocolate martini

    Great cocktails, happy hour specials, live jazz, and an amazing whisky selection all hidden below street level. What more could you ask for in a Date Night hot spot? (TIP: get fries & fried chicken)

    Cozy atmosphere, attentive and polite staff. Nice jazz tunes playing in the background. Mac & cheese is delicious and the perfect portion size (small bites menu). Cocktail was delicious.

    Love this place until the tool bags swarm on it in packs doing their jagger shots and totally missing the point. Cozy, jazzy, and delicious bar menu.

    Through the unassuming door and down the steps, lies a cozy bar where Jazz music and cocktails made by some very talented bartenders are readily available.

    Scenes in the City is a delicious lychee-grapefruit martini. It's sweet for those of you who like that. Great jazz music playing in the background.

    With a massive list of cocktails, you can't go wrong with any selection. Favorites include the Lychee Martini and anything with Amaretto.

    Great service staff. Food is fine. Draft beers seemed stale. Had 2 different options and both tasted that way. Still nice place and good music.

    Their karaage is a revelation. Also a huge fan of the (multiple!) yuzu drinks.

    This subterranean lounge has live jazz, excellent Asian-influenced small plates and cocktails named after jazz classics like "Giant Steps."

    Kentucky mule is dangerously easy to drink. I also liked the Paloma. Desafinado was not for me

    The best jazz in Tribeca. Our concierge Ella at Smyth recommends the Watermelon Man as your go-to cocktail here.

    Finally, a real jazz place that's not crowded / commercial. Unbelievable drinks that tease and tempt the tastebuds. Music to boot.

    Two words: fried chicken. And in Japanese, "Tatsuta" or "Karage". Best in NYC.

    Best bartenders in town. Also an unlikely contender for best mac and cheese in town.
