Funky bar with great drinks menu and wonderful Asian dishes. The decor is Asian with warm wood and oriental motifs and makes for a cozy and intimate environment. As the evening progresses the music starts and it's definitely worth waiting for! The staff is great, friendly and knowledgeable.
This is a fantastic bar with an oriental theme that's a bit overused, but it works. Although very easy to miss as the bar is located downstairs and hidden in between the busy restaurants on hardware lane, once down here, it's difficult to leave. The dark atmosphere and closed off tables provide a great place for groups of friends to share some social drinks. They have a wide range of cocktails, and if cocktails are not your thing, the bar staff definitely know their drinks and can easily make a recommendation for you. I've been a number of times and would continue to come back. Recommended.
I love the oriental inspired decor of this place. They have a few different sections that are partitioned which means it's a good spot good for hosting intimate drinks with a couple of girlfriends or larger functions. If you're a fan of rum, then you should definitely come here. They have an extensive rum list.
Not much to look at from above, but when you venture down the staircase you find yourself in very cool surroundings. Great spot to come for a drink & asian tapas after work. Highly recommend the spicy prawn wantons - it is hard to stop once you start eating these. So very tasty. After 9ish the lights dim, the music is turned up & it becomes more like a bar/nightclub with food. It is hard to see what you are eating, but it is all yummy so just go with it!
