You will have to enter via the Hot Dog shop and dial 1 in the phone booth to get in.. fun experience but the host was kinda rude when I questioned the wait time of 2 hours. Was BS and we got in after 15min.. the wait was worth it as the drinks were all so unique and bartenders were educated, friendly, and professional. We were supposed to continue our bar hopping but got stuck at this fantastic bar

What an amazing experience! The entrance is through a phone booth in a hot dog shop. We got on the list and waited an hour to be seated. 100% worth the wait. I had the naked and famous. It was awesome. Service and vibes were great too.

Beautiful bar. Beautiful people. All in a cozy place with smooth atmosphere. The food is excellent and the drinks are just as tasty. You'll love everything about this bar, and will want to come back again and again. Enjoy your time with wonderful company, beautiful women and great guys.

Questions & Answers

Is it reservation only? or are walk ins welcomed? thanks!

Luisa Achcar | Oct 8, 2018
Xavier Bunyan | Oct 8, 2018

Reservations are strongly recommended otherwise you will wait a while(like an hour) because you have to wait for people to miss their reservations

Probably a silly question but it's not obvious. .do they sell beer there?

jedi dave | Oct 8, 2017
Greg Fjell | Oct 8, 2017

Nothing on tap, all bottles but yes.

Does the Benton's Old Fashioned have pieces of bacon in it, or just the bacon flavor?

A Google User | Oct 8, 2017
Gary Yeung | Oct 8, 2017

Bacon flavor, it's really good and pairs well with the maple syrup.

Is there a dress code?

Erin Lawson | Oct 8, 2019
Silas Grossberndt | Oct 8, 2019

Honestly, dressing up has helped me get in more quickly in the past. A buddy and I were in three piece suits and we were seated before a few other groups of two in jeans. Can't hurt to dress up

You have to call consistently. They'll eventually answer but you gotta be persistent. I called like 15-20 mins back to back

Chelsea Beach | Oct 8, 2019
Sebastian Saint | Oct 8, 2019

I would just try again using the number listed on Google. My call just went through

Help. Every time I call the number to make a rez, there is a recording that says the number is unreachable. Is there an alternate number to call, please?

Leisa Jamison | Oct 8, 2019
Matt Bender | Oct 8, 2019

It's a trick, just keep calling. It might take 20 times to get through. you can only make reservations for that day and they start taking them at 3 p.m. so call at 3:01

What are the opening hours? Can only make reservations on Fri-Sat-Sun but Google says it's open everyday.

Joke Meuris | Aug 8, 2022
Horst Evans | Aug 8, 2022

They are open everyday. There are probably no slots open for the selected group size. For example I found slots for groups of 1 and 4 but not 2 and 3 for Thursday. Try playing with the group size +1/2 and see if that helps.

Where can I make a reservation?

Martha Alvarez | Aug 8, 2022
Kristina Helwing | Aug 8, 2022

Resy or via their website that links to Resy is the only way to make an official reservation.

I was turned away with a confirmed reservation when I was with someone underage. However, nowhere does it say minors are not allowed.

Is this place open in April 2021? It says it is open, but Crif Dogs is closed, so how do you enter?

Terika Ray | Oct 7, 2021
Lushane Watson | Oct 7, 2021

It's not open, they haven't updated they're google info

Marilynne Fine | Oct 7, 2020

How can I purchase a gift certificate

a t | Oct 7, 2020
Jon Galarza | Oct 7, 2020

I don't think they sell gift certificates but you should call them to confirm. It is difficult to get through so it might take you a while.

I does anyone know if they sell t shirts? Was there in the summer with my daughters Australian boyfriend who is a mixologist and would love to send him one.

Janet Vanderende | Oct 7, 2020
Nicole “NILA” | Oct 7, 2020

No clothing just drinks...

Are reservations needed for a Monday night same day?

Lily LoBasso | Oct 7, 2020
Joshua Jones | Oct 7, 2020

We called at 3 and got a 9 PM reservation on Monday during Thanksgiving. They seated a few walk-ins as well but if you can get through I'd say try to get the reservation.

Whats the phone code!

Cody Tyner | Oct 7, 2020
Slavi Nikolov | Oct 7, 2020

Be nice to the hostess, give your name and go for a drinks / dinner somewhere nearby - plenty of top places. Once they message you (could be hours) be right there. While highly touristy now, the bar is still worth it. Great service and great cocktails.

Delilah Rose | Oct 8, 2019
Lori Culhane | Oct 8, 2019

You have to call at exactly 3 pm on the night you want to go. It can take a very long time to get through. When they answer, they will let you know what times they have available. It's worth the effort!

Why don't they answer in order to make a reservation?

Mushkah Haskelevich | Oct 8, 2018
Lydia Wonderly | Oct 8, 2018

If it just keeps ringing the line is busy so you just have to keep calling until someon picks up

Call the day of at 3:00pm. That's the only way.

Noya Goudar | Oct 8, 2018
Sabrina Runbeck | Oct 8, 2018

They start answering at 3pm. But only one call can get through each time. Took 2 people and 40 + repeated dials before one of our calls went through to make a reservation. They only take same day reservations.

What’s the price to get in ?

Jasiah Speed | Oct 8, 2018
Doug Cruickshank | Oct 8, 2018

No charge. Just pick up the phone in the phone booth and they'll let you in. It's very small and folks up quickly, so get there earlier on or be prepared for a wait. They will take your number and may remember to give you a call when they have to for you.

There number is not working. I need to make a reservation. Please advise. Thank you.

Kevin | Oct 8, 2018
Nicole Chan | Oct 8, 2018

Usually when the line is beeping it means someone is on the other phone line already, which means you will have to keep calling again and again till you get through. One time, I called 56 times, by calling and hanging up when I heard the beeping tone, until I finally heard the dial tone and got through to them.
