    Great cocktail bar. Visited many times on my trip, and didn't have one bartender who wasn't excellent. They're occasionally understaffed, and I could do without the smoke, but otherwise great place.

    If you're ready to escape Bourbon and actually find a chill place for an amazing cocktail, this is it. Try the eggnog drink — amazing.

    Craft Cocktails with exquisite selection of liquor from whiskey, gin and rum. Tonic' s made in house with bitters and sodas. No pretentious cocktails here just amazing handcrafted selection.

    Great cocktail bar with a grungy feel. Bacon bloody Mary’s with homemade tomato juice are great, as are the dark and stormys. Good deals on cocktails too. Well worth a visit.

    Fun and interesting cocktails: sazerac always solid, corpse reviver and aviation are great gin cocktails. Quintessential New Orleans ambiance without the crowd.

    So everyone says to come here and get the Ramos Gin Fizz. And you should because it's awesome. But then you have to pay the price and incur barkeep wrath. Kinda makes your drink unfun. :/

    Bloody Mary on Saturday is one of the most unique I've ever had. They juice the ingredients all together Centrifuge juicer and add a strip of bacon.

    Awesome drinks if you can get one! Bartender irritated when I ordered the 'labor-intensive' Ramos gin fizz....um, sorry. Drinks are good enough I'll go back, but only if they're not busy.

    Very well made cocktails, excellent Scotch selection, and a cordial crowd. Ask the bartender for recommendations: they have ingredients made in house.

    Bartender is the strong & silent type. Makes amazing cocktails and will engage if you seem interested. Ask him what he's drinking. Get that.

    Great drinks at the edge of the French Quarter. Try the Bloody Mary or one of the other daily specials.

    You know there are lots of bars. Sometimes this is excellent but other times the bartenders are kind of snarky

    Drinks are pedestrian here. Smoker hipsters hang out near the front door and all the cigarette smoke enters the bar. Bartender didn't want to close the door

    Be careful not to offend one of the night bartenders, she may throw an ice cube or two at you!

    Came around 6:45, wasn’t that crowded, waited 35 minutes and was never able to get a drink. One of the worst managed bars I’ve ever visited in my life. It’s a pity too as they have solid drinks.
