Reviews for in between days in St. Petersburg, FL
The best dining experience ever... First I researched (a Tokyo listening bar?), then we found it (no sign, no logo-- a house set... in the middle of other homes), then we get to the door (no commotion), and lastly, we opened the door. The eclectic, cool soundsof jazz, blues, funk hit you like a Hokusai wave. Loud but not offensive... other worldy! The sound frequencies are setperfectly to project turntable records from there wall of records. With top of the line speakers and sound proofed padded walls,the sound experience is made for those inside not out. The place is packed with people enjoying the sounds, sights, smells, anddrinks in a retro lighted atmosphere! It is the only imported craft Saki tasting bar in Florida right here in our ownbackyard... downtown St. Petersburg! A hole in the wall but not a dive... classicly, classy! Zach, the owner, sat down with meand my husband, Alex. He explained the concept and wowed us! We shared several tapas style dishes (small menu... prepared toperfection) and although we do not drink, he shared 3 cocktails they could do without the saki -- the most delicious andoutstanding non-alcoholic cocktails hands down we had ever had!!! We didn't miss out on the feel good vibes! We spent over anhour absorbing our newly found treasure... I find it hard to share it's secret, but too excited not to let you know what wefound! It is a welcoming environment that invites you to sit and stay awhile, taking it all in and with no reservations, no togo's, no deliveries, and no phone calls (that's right... there is no phone number) you can let your eyes wander and ears eavesdrop on others experiences without anything taking you out of the moment! A once in a lifetime experience to have over and overagain... Don't miss out and check them out-- Word of Mouth is their form of Advertising!!! in between days because it is open5ish to 10ish every evening. Read more
First time but not my last. This is such a great hidden gem. Went for a cocktail to pass the time and wish I could of stayed... longer. My daughter and I ordered one drink and they were delicious and so refreshing. The ambiance was perfect and the musicplaying in the background was enjoyable as it was not too loud. The bartender was very pleasant and attentive. Read more
Such an amazing little spot. We went with another couple and shared all four food options, all of which were delicious! We tried... several of their signature cocktails, all of which did not disappoint. Highly recommend! Read more
Very fun place. Upscale vibe but owners and bartenders are very down to earth and happy to converse about anything while they... teach you about saki. The food we had was outstanding! Mostly traditional freeform jazz on the turntable but they mixed in someacid jazz. Read more
Honestly waited a long time to write a review here because I?d rather in between days stay a hidden gem for locals. Now that... word has spread, everything you read and see is true. Definitely in my top 3 in DTSP, such an amazing experience each andevery-time. Read more
Very cute trendy spot. Low key. This my third attempt to catch the open lol But it was worth it. Really cool vibes. Appetizer... menu is short but gives a variety. Sake list runs long for folks that want options. I?ll be back. Read more
It's intimate lighting and seating make you fall in love with this place. One of the owners greeted us immediately and the staff... was incredibly kind and helpful. We had the peach sake & soda highball and the matcha mule, both were refreshing. This is agreat place to enjoy before or after dinner. Read more
