    This is one my favorite places for quality cocktails. This is a bar that is easy to get into, and they have an atmosphere that is conducive to talking quietly amongst yourselves. The food here is from Sushi Neko next door which is a big plus! I love going to this place to meet friends, or just to sit at the bar, and watch the game while enjoying a good cocktail. They usually have a pretty good drink special at this place, but you can also order any of the classics with no problem.

    I'm really confused. We went to the Lobby Bar for food and drinks. They sat us outside of Sushi Neko and only offered food from Sushi Neko - even though I specifically asked if we could order food from the Lobby Bar menu. Sushi Neko is fine, but not what we were in the mood for. So, does the Lobby Bar still serve some of their classics like their Mai Tai and the lobster mac n cheese?

    Nako Japanese (next door) took over the Resturant and they no longer serve the breakfast menu items people review and praised. The Asian food is excellent and is worth coming here for; just don't expect the breakfast menu items.

    Love the bar, love Sushi Neko, however, in the Lobby Bar, the service has been abysmal . We’ve come many time where there are ‘reserved placards on every seat in the house, with zero Explanation. Assumed that they were understaffed. When it didn’t seem shut down, there is no one there to take orders in any reasonable amount of time. It takes FOREVER to get your order, def not a place to go for a work lunch. It’s one of the coolest places in OKC, but they really need to step it up

    Came here for a business meeting because it’s low key and relaxed, but I wasn’t overly impressed with anything. They have a TV playing old school movies which was cute. The cocktails were made well but they brought me the wrong drink (which was fine) and our server got me the correct one. After that I didn’t see anyone again to check on us or ask for more drinks, food, etc. We were there for almost three hours! Whenever we wanted anything we had to go up to the bar and ask, including food. I like the vibe of the place itself but was disappointed on the service. I also hate that they put straws in everything without asking. :(

    This is becoming one of my favorite places for breakfast. They are going to take care of you here. It's not crowded ever during the morning hours, so it's perfect to grab breakfast and drinks anytime.

  • 2/5 Martin T. 5 years ago on Google
    When I walked in they told me I could sit anywhere. Then they asked me what I wanted to drink so I asked for coffee. Took them about 10 mins just to get me coffee. Then when the brought me out my coffee they took my menu without asking me if wanted to order or any sort of explanation. And it seemed like most of the staff was just standing around. But the only reason I brought it up to 2 stars is that I think they saw me writing this review and came to ask if I wanted to order anything.

    Is this a craft cocktail bar? Or a fish market? Or is it actually Sushi Neko?... I used to frequent this place back in the day, it is terrible now. I just revisited it and was greeted behind the bar by someone who said "I'll get the bartender"... then another person asked what coop beers they had and the person didn't know... just terrible. Knock that wall down and make it a Sushi Neko expansion, or train your staff... absolutely abhorrent.

    I go here all the time for drink and to hang out with my friends. When I started a couple years ago, it was a little hole in the wall not many people knew about. Now? its becoming crowded. They have great servers, great food and good drink menu, and the atmosphere is excellent. Sometimes I close the place. Love it here.

    Great low key space for drinks, wide skein of food and conversation.

    Atmosphere was unique and gave off a smooth jazz vibe. They're with Sushi Neko and can order from there and eat at the bar in the Lobby. Service was great, the waiter could answer my questions about the drinks and their food. They can service Ramen as well which I wasn't expecting but a delightful surprise because that's what I ended up having along with a roll of sushi.
