Reviews
Lovely speakeasy style bar. Slightly overpriced but a great drink and exceptional service.
Not as dark as and as speakeasy vibe as I hoped it would be behind this awesome door - *but* the cocktails were amazing and the service was exquisite. I recommend you go at least once when in HK to experience this place
We were originally going to COA, but they were fully booked and we stumbled upon this hidden gem. The staff members are very nice and give great recommendations. The Yuzu flavored cocktail that we ordered was already an amazing surprise, then we were recommended to order the Tom Yum inspired cocktail. Man, we were happy we took the recommendation. That cocktail was truly remarkable and so creative. If you are barhopping in this area, do not miss out.
