A fun atmosphere with decent cocktails. Nothing blew us away in terms of flavor on our visit, but the pearl diver was quite good and blood pact not bad either. The mango tree was really h enjoyable - tasted like rubbing alcohol, no mango flavor, nothing to balance it al all. The cocktails were gorgeous and the presentation carefully and planned. The fire show and lighting is dramatic and demands your attention. The drinks are also incredibly strong, and I definitely would be careful in future!

Overall rating: 4.8 Super fun “speakeasy” tiki bar with amazing cocktails! Best on a date or with a small group of friends. Drinks average around $25 with tax and tip, so come on a day you’re ready to spend. The first time I went our waitress, Noa, was so friendly and so knowledgeable. She had a cool vest with all these trinkets. I love the vibe of the bar and how there are so many options. While I don’t have the names now, here’s my favorites: 1. The clear drink 2. Frankenstein face 3. Tall glass 4. Green drink 5. Blue drink (not pictured) Will edit once I know the names. Also we put our name down which was about a 2hr wait at peak time. It’s better to do it first before you go to the next bar. My only comment is I wish they had a clear sign for when you can open the door to come in (vs waiting outside). It’s a little confusing to be honest.

One of the COOLEST tiki bars I’ve been to and some pretty badass staff members. This one was like a dark, grunge tiki vibe so I found that to be very unique. The bathroom had a button that you press and wait for something spooky to happen. Our bartender Ayeli was the coolest! You could tell she was a seasoned bartender and knew her stuff. We vibed with her and she made us some delicious tiki cocktails. I thought their menu was super dope and I wanted to try something different and got the one that used fish sauce. We got to hang until they closed and had the best time with awesome vibes! Totally recommend it if you’re in NY!
