A two-floor Soho cocktail bar that is really two bars in one. Upstairs is fast, standing, and sociable — aperitivo territory, with a Negroni Sbagliato on tap. Downstairs is dark, seated, and intimate, built for serious drinking, where you tell the bartenders your whiskey preferences and let them work. Start upstairs early evening for the aperitivo, then descend to the basement for the serious round. Both floors are excellent, but they offer completely different experiences, so plan accordingly. It is one of the smartest two-in-one rooms in the city — sociable up top, contemplative below.

Upstairs: Negroni Sbagliato on tap. Downstairs: trust the bartenders with your whiskey preferences.
Early evening upstairs for aperitivo. Later, descend to the basement for serious drinks.
Two completely different vibes. Upstairs is standing, fast, sociable. Downstairs is seated, dark, intimate. Both excellent but plan accordingly.
