    Great cocktail bar, quiet location for a fancy drink. Don't let the walk down the alley deter you from this great location and great drinks!

    Eric is a real craftsman in the art of drinks and his menu never disappoints. For a truly historic experience in a building to that still has the burn marks from a fire, visit Kakuteru

    Love love LOVE ka-ku-ta-ru lounge! Eric not just a bartender, he is a talented artist who can craft the most delicious of cocktails. Don’t stick stick to the drink list - ask him to create something new and marvelous. We asked for something in the style od a French 75 and he created the most delightful Prosecco cocktail. Small, cozy, personal and MUST-DO in your visit to Saint John. Don’t miss it!!!

    Stepping into this cocktail sanctuary is like entering a realm where liquid dreams are spun from scratch. The mixologists here are less like bartenders and more like potion masters, concocting libations that could charm even the most discerning palate. Each glass holds a universe of flavors, meticulously curated and masterfully blended. It's a place where every drink is a work of liquid art, and every sip is a one-way ticket to a euphoric expedition of taste.

    Came here for the first time this past weekend and will definitely be back! Ordered a vodka sour, my personal favourite. The owner really makes this an experience by sharing the history of drinks as well as the inspiration behind his menu. You can tell this is his pride and joy. He’s very engaging in conversation if you talk to him, and. I noticed he lets guests socialize amongst themselves too if you don’t feel like talking with him. It makes for a nice experience. Next time I’ll go for something I haven’t tried before.

    This was a great stop for a night out in Saint John pub crawling. The host is very friendly and knowledgeable of all things cocktails. The conversation and presentation of all the drink are amazing. Definitely would recommend anyone stop for a couple cocktails before or after a dinner or evening out. Our party tried 4 different drinks and all were amazing. Price was on point and very reasonable.

    We’ve been here a few times for date night and to bring friends out for exceptional cocktails. Eric is beyond a talented drink creator extraordinaire, but his way of greeting his customers and the full experience is beyond anything we have found anywhere! We live on one coast to the other and have yet to find another cocktail as delicious and creative as what we’ve experienced at Kakuteru! A must try!

    Modern cocktails served in classic fashion. There may be limited seating, but Eric's skills are unlimited, and that makes you feel exclusive.

    A lovely addition to the uptown area. Great atmosphere, amazing drinks, and conversation. We chose Kakuteru for a very rare date night, and were not disappointed. A must visit, for any special night out. Thanks for the lovely evening, Eric and staff. We can't wait to return!

    Amazing unique experience!! Best to call ahead and make a reservation. My new favourite place in uptown to get a drink. And don't limit yourself to the menu! Tell Eric what you're feeling and he'll handcraft you a custom cocktail.

    Simply the best spot for cocktails in the city. Its a cozy intimate environment and the owner is a man of passion and purpose. Always good discussions and stellar creations! They also have unbelievably good non-alcoholic cocktails.
