★★★★★ 5.0 Christina Zimnicki · Dec 2025

Absolutely amazing experience, Tom was the best bartender I've ever had! This place is likely the closet thing to a speakeasy that you'll find around here, super low key, great music, dim-er lighting, and fantastic drinks. I had Tom surprise me with a cocktail, and it was absolutely amazing! He did a wonderful job, and was an absolute pleasure to talk with as well. The bar was well stocked, everything was super clean, and genuinely very few negatives. The food left a bit to be desired, and no normal fries, but other than that it was fine. I will absolutely come here in the future, favorite bar I've found so far.

Vovina was a rare gem of a find, down a flight of stairs, but with a fully stocked bar and an incredibly friendly and outgoing bartender, Tom. Within minutes of sitting down, we felt like we had known Tom for a really long time, as we were all chatting together, more than happy to spend the evening in easy conversation. Despite a complete stranger sitting down next to us at the bar half-way through the night, somehow Tom was able to make us and our new companion feel like we were all dear old friends, happy to reconnect after not seeing each other for a while. Anyone can make delicious drinks (as long as they are able to follow the recipe), but it takes real effort and skill to build a genuine human connection with guests, especially when things get a bit busy.

A small and intimate bar with trendy atmosphere and delicious eclectic food and drinks. I always love coming here to wind down with a delicious hand crafted cocktail and small plates that are just enough to sate the palette. You can't miss the truffle/Cajun tots, truly a drunk's best friend!

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Mariska Calabrese · Dec 2023

Ordered a sage old fashioned and fruit and cheese plate. The OF was mediocre with a leaf of fresh sage. The bartender (also the server) was very nice and made our drinks “with love”. The (happy hour) fruit and cheese plate was difficult to eat with unbalanced ratios (cheese to crackers). The bathrooms are inconveniently shared in the main hallway with flatstick pub and smell disgusting.

Carson was an incredible bartender. We tried The Bumblebee and The Jalapeño and they were both incredible cocktails. We loved the ambience, service, and location! Would definitely recommend this place to anyone.
