Employees Only Cocktail Bar and Restaurant

Went to a girls night on a Friday and the food and drinks do not disappoint! They have an amazing selection of cocktails, apps, main dishes. A lot of veggi friendly ones too! The food come out fast and like I said was super filling! Parking is a bit tricky in this area I would say Uber or give yourself time to park and walk to the Restaurant. Staff were super attentive and always ready to take away finished plates, refill water, etc. I do agree with other peoples comments that it felt that some waiters wanted to rush the order. Not terrible maybe it was the first day for them but it was a bit comedic how they would constantly check in. I made a reservation so I don't know what the wait is like if you're walking up, but it felt for a Friday night they could possibly accommodate. The on

Employees Only is such a cute date night spot! The vibe is intimate, cozy, romantic perfect for a night out. It’s small and cozy, so definitely make a reservation. If you don’t grab a table or a seat at the bar, there really isn’t much space to hang out while you wait. We had the Violet and the Soda Pop Sour — soooo good! Both were flavorful and perfectly balanced. We also tried the Hibiscus Rising, which was very tart and a little too citrus-forward for our taste, but still beautifully made. The meatballs were delicious and the sauce was sooo good. Overall, such a fun, charming spot with great energy. Perfect for date night — we’ll definitely be back! 🍸✨

We booked out the back room bar for a private event and it was a lovely evening. The room had a door so we were free to mix & mingle and be loud without disturbing other patrons. We only had a small offering of snacks but they were tasty. The real hit of the evening were the custom cocktails that were named for our event, they were funny, inspired and delicious. My only complaint is the room is a bit dark and there is an elevated platform on one side of the room that people kept tripping on, I tripped on it twice and I was sober. I would like to return and sample more of their food & cocktails.

We came to this restaurant for dinner. The place itself is pleasant, with dim lighting—perfect for a romantic evening. However, the low light makes it a bit hard to clearly see the food, which can be inconvenient for dining, though it’s fine for enjoying drinks. I ordered the fried calamari, but they were overly greasy, and I couldn’t finish them. We also tried the focaccia with cheese, which was decent as a starter. The highlight, however, was the drinks. My friend had a passion fruit martini, which was absolutely delicious, and I opted for a non-alcoholic berry cocktail, which was simply outstanding.

Really disappointing experience today. I’ve been to Employees Only several times for drinks, but this was my first time coming for dinner to celebrate a friend’s birthday. The main issue was the bill. I paid without carefully reviewing the receipt, which I take responsibility for, but afterward noticed a 5% surcharge added with no explanation or disclosure. That lack of transparency is unacceptable. Another issue was related to the birthday celebration. When I made the reservation, I noted that we were celebrating a birthday and kindly requested seating in a nice area if possible. Toward the end of the meal, the server brought out a crème brûlée with a candle. I assumed it was a complimentary birthday gesture, as is common when a birthday is noted on a reservation. Instead, we were charg
