"AMAZING. my fiancé made a reservation to celebrate our engagement with some friends. I really like the vibe, amazing ambiance and music and decoration. Drink options are great and staff are incredible!!! One thing, the marble coaster got stuck to the glass and drop often. Another words, when you pick up the glasses, the coaster comes with it for a bit and drops with a bit of noise. Other than that— PERFECT 10/10 !!!"

"Such an unique charm in the heart of mid town. Even though their cocktail menu is limited, I can tell that they invested a lot efforts in creating those. My most favorite is the Ruby Cobbler. I love the aroma & taste of ruby cherry. I was extremely impressed by how they welcome you with a hot towel to wipe your hands. They also kindly offered some candies when bringing out the check. So dedicated and lovely!"

"I don’t know what happened to the Anvil and other type of bars of old where there was a proper menu of cocktails that spanned multiple pages. Here you have 5 original cocktails that are all riffs of classics. And then you had 5 classic cocktails. Very limited drink menu from a bar with such a high pedigree. I get that you have to churn out consistent drinks quickly nowadays but that just makes you a generic bar serving old fashions and manhattan riffs like everyone else"

"Classy, intimate vibes at this cocktail lounge! Upon entering, you were seated with a glass of water and warm towel to clean your hands. I inquired about the happy hour, which they no longer have, but my server was kind enough to still honor the deal since they silently discontinued the deal without announcing it on social media. We got the Rolls-Royce martini and best seller classic cocktail evergreen (original price $16 each, but we got them for $8 each)! Both tasted clean and strong. Definitely recommend this place for a date night or girls night!"

"Refuge was better when it was a hidden gem but it’s still a great place serving up great high quality drinks. It will always hold a special place in my heart."
