We spent Tuesday afternoon listening to live music from 5-7 on the patio while sipping a wonderful Bordeaux recommended by our bartender. An excellent place to meet up after work and relax!

I recently visited the Cypress Bar and unfortunately, I won’t be returning. I’d give it 3 stars, but it really didn’t meet expectations. I ordered a whiskey sour, and while it was beautifully decorated with frothy egg white, the taste was off. It was far too sour, almost like they used cheap lemon flavoring. We also tried a mojito, which was again nicely presented, but the bartender added way too much sparkling water, which drowned out any hint of alcohol.
On the plus side, the fireplace added a cozy touch, but sadly, the drinks were so bad that we didn’t even finish them before leaving. The music was also surprisingly dull—it almost put us to sleep. Definitely not the vibe we were hoping for.

We have tried to go here before but don’t care to sit in the lobby on sofas with strangers, but this time after 5 minutes a top notch cocktail waitress got us a table in the bar. A local piano player was singing very Nolacentric music and was very good. My husband had a TOP NOTCH Old Fashioned with Luchardo? Cherries sure fire way to set the bar at top notch. Wine bottles 50% off at happy hour. The mid priced Cab I chose not an award winner IMO but nice. The only disappointment was the Charcuterie Board for $27.00 (portions of cheese and meats skimpy) but delicious. We were charged and additional fee when we asked for a few more crackers.

Long overdue shout-out for this place. It’s become an after work sanctuary for the wife and I. Service is always quick and fantastic, regardless of how busy they are.

Have been here many times. Recently the selection of bourbon has decreased significantly. The bartenders are very good at making specialty drinks, just need more of them during peak times.

The fancy shmancy cocktails slows down the bartenders too much. Waiting for 20 minutes to get a gin and tonic. Always accommodating though and a very classy place nonetheless. Beautiful art!!

Incredible drinks – similar to the fancy hotels in NYC and London. Best sazerac I’ve ever had – they have some special bacon fat bitters that makes it real special

Very sweet cocktail waitress. Was on her toes. Didnt have to wait on any drinks. She was very mindful of her customers.
