The crafted cocktails were superb! The flamingo theme and the bathtub out front are really trendy. However, it was a tad confusing to visit for the first time as I did not know what to expect. Do I sit down and get served? There wasn't really a designated place to order a drink at the bar unless you were seated. Inside is very dark and I stood at the bar for 5 minutes without anyone acknowledging me. I finally asked a girl seated at the bar to see her menu. The 2 bartenders were really good at making drinks, but a greeting and a smile could have gone a long way since I'm paying $13 for a drink and had 2. The bus boy was on top of it as he was amazing at hustling picking up empty drinks, restocking the bar and washing dirty glasses. It's unfortunate because I probably won't choose to come here again because of all the work I have to do as a patron with so much other competition in this area now. The overall vibe is great but customer service is key in my book.

Ever visited a speakeasy that’s not-quite-a-speakeasy?? That would perfectly describe this bar, quietly tucked away in an up and coming area of Tampa. This place has the right mood and atmosphere: a little bit for the crowd who likes the inside, a little bit for the crowd who likes the outside, plenty of creative drinks, just the right music, friendly fast attentive bar staff, great patrons, and just enough “quirk” to make you smile! Come spend a relaxing evening away from the crazier and flashy bar scenes to the new-age-place where everyone 🎶 “can get to know your name”..! Cheers!

At first, we were hesitant about visiting because of some of the reviews; however, I'm glad we did drop by ; it's a cute, cozy location. The hand crafted drinks were amazing, and our bartender she was just wonderful. We are definitely looking forward to going back again. The vibes and ambiance were spot on.

Was not expecting this place to be as chic as it is. Someone mentioned it was comparable to a speakeasy and I must admit I felt the same minus the whole secrecy to get in. The ambience is wonderful and the drinks are one of a kind, in the sense that they're very creative. The parking can be a bit annoying if you get there a bit later as the crowd thickens and it is a very small space so it fills up quickly as the night goes on. No food is served but there are a few options around to dine at prior to enjoying.

Sooo Mandarin Heights during the day is a chill vibe. We order food from the Bodega and sat inside Mandarin Heights which no one gave us a hard time about. The bartender came over and provided a drink menu. The decor was so eye catching we kept finding new things while looking around. Reminds me of a speakeasy type of environment. I’m sure at night it’s even better! I really enjoyed their drinks and the ambiance. I will need to come at night! What was ordered: Bartender’s choice with vodka Bartender’s choice = They know what they are doing! Loved it

Been wanting to come here for a while and I’m glad I waited so that my cousin could come with. We had a great time chatting up a storm and sipping on drinks. This place is definitely instagram worthy and the drinks are right there with it. We got so many I can’t remember the names! They were delicious!

Excellent cocktail bar in Tampa, with really great mixologists. My only complaint would be they need heaters outside when it’s cold. #floridaproblems

My wife and I wondered what this place was like every time we picked up a Cuban at Bodega. Now that we’ve finally been, we can’t wait to go again! Very cool vibe, good, fast service, and a lot of variety in the menu. It’s pricey but totally worth it if you’re in the mood for good cocktails on a date night.

The cocktails at this bar are fire ! The vibes are very chill and relaxing. I find it to be a great place to come with a few friends and just bond. Unfortunately, they do not offer food so I recommend you eat something beforehand or go next door. Really nice and tasty cocktails.

I absolutely love this place! I had heard so many great things about Mandarin that I had to see and try it for myself. There’s a lovely outdoor patio area as you walk in and a separate indoor area. We sat inside at the bar and had several cocktails. The bartender was super nice, conversed a bit and made us some off the menu drinks that were quite good.

Very chill atmosphere, great drinks! Loved the Espresso Martini! If you are a coffee lover , you must get that drink! loved this place ❤️

I absolutely love this establishment!! The setting and seasonal drinks are wonderful. We had a small bridal shower in the side room and Alanna and Spencer helped us out the entire time. They were so friendly and accommodating. Thank you so much for being wonderful <3

Nice cozy hang out bar with amazing cocktails! Indoor and outdoor seating. Friendly bartenders. Love what they did with the place. Decor is pretty cool. Skeleton in the bathtub is a nice touch 😂 Parking is available. Try the ring of fire! Amazing drink!

Wow! This place is amazing! If you are looking for craft drinks, looks no further, you have found the place! We came in, felt welcomed from Alex! What an amazing bar tender. Sweet and attentive. Anytime we are in the Tampa Bay Area, we will definitely make a stop here! Alex definitely makes the trip worth it! We tried all of the “Heights Infatuations” and they were all DELICIOUS! Must try! Did I mention, Alex was the best?

This was a pleasant surprise. It was a long wait and the bar was packed for midday but from what I’m told it’s usually busy all the time, especially when the weather is great. The portions of everything we ordered was great. Got fully really quick. The food was fresh and the drink was strong. I recommend the “Strawberry Moon”. Thank you Stacy for the great service looking forward to coming back.

Atmosphere and drinks were amazing! Only thing people really went there to just take pictures as me and the wife actually enjoyed ourselves. Bartenders were awesome!

Fabulous speakeasy type bar! We sat on the porch and it was perfect. The bartenders were super helpful with picking out drinks that would satisfy our palates. It’s 100% a spot to go for an afternoon cocktail or a date. #sunshinereviews

Robby was a great! Drinks were very tasty and refreshing for the summer heat, we shall return!

This place is awesome. Their drinks are some of the best I've ever had. Atmosphere is really classy. Drinks a little on the expensive side, but worth the stop .

Very cool and swanky cocktail bar. I went on a Saturday afternoon, so it was pretty low-key and chill. If you're looking to eat, this is not the place-there isn't any food available. If you're looking for creatively curated cocktails, this is your spot! I will definitely be back!

Great bar! Nice place to enjoy delicious cocktails!

Awesome atmosphere, great music, and even better drinks. Easily one of my favorite go to spots in tampa for a date night or to hangout with some friends. If you stop in, make sure you try their Espresso Martini. Seriously one of the best I've ever had.
