Great place and great service! This place is in the old high school so kind of have to know where you're going. Signage outside is not great.

Best restaurant in town… and it’s wild because it’s mostly a bar and speakeasy. Hidden in plain sight, the speakeasy section takes it to another level—intimate, moody, and just cool as hell. The cocktails? Top-tier. The steaks? Absolutely dialed in. But what really sets it apart is the people—John, Alice, and the entire crew are just exceptional. Service like that is rare. This isn’t just dinner… it’s an experience.

This place is a must stop place in Taylor. Located in the Old Taylor high a converted school that houses shops and bars and even an arcade. But this place takes the cake! The drinks are specialty crafted with intention and I have never had drinks like this outside a big city. The owners are alcohol connoisseurs and know their stuff. They just updated their food menu as well and I’m never disappointed in anything I order, although my favorite is the BLT with the sous vide egg. Weekends check out their speakeasy behind the bookshelf. Such a great atmosphere and swanky lounge. I can’t say enough about this place

We drive nearly an hour to come here every couple of months. That should tell you all you need to know. I'd give 6 stars if I could. Drinks are delicious, classic, and unique. Do not miss the smoked old fashioned. Food is equally amazing. Great sharing options and mains. Portions are just right, not huge. Just go in knowing that you will not get your food quickly; it just isn't that kind of place (kitchen is tiny, give em a break). Don't show up starving and you'll be fine. I promise the food is worth any wait. The owner has been there every single time I visit. Dude works so hard. Truly passionate about what he does, and his enthusiasm for serving great stuff is clear in every conversation as he chats with everyone who comes in. This is not a stuffy or pretentious place, come as you are and have an amazing time. Lots of regulars come back again and again, just like we do. Looking forward to our next visit!
