Prohibition Gastro Lounge

Was in here a few nights ago with friends to check out the place since new owners have bought the place , we had dinner in the outside lounge which is very nice . They now serve dinner out there now instead of just appetizers. The actual restaurant has very few tables but I think there is an up stairs. I had the fish and chips which was very good but the tartar sauce was alittle strange . Tasted ok but to chunky to dip your fish into it . In the summer time the walls open up and they have live music . Small parking area

I attended an in person training at work and they organized a private event here. The event was held in the private area in the back. It may have been a garage at one time. It's surrounded by outdoor seating and is really cozy. And we got to meet a reptile (some type of lizard) who was housed out there.The alcohol pours were generous. The food was spread out on tables parallel to the entrance. It was difficult to navigate at times because people are in line and following the U-shape and someone wants to enter. The person entering breaks through the line while the people in line juggle their appetizer sized plates loaded with food.The variety of food options was good. Salad, multiple pizzas, pretzels, fries, and chicken wings.

I have LOVED my time coming here and my amazing experience every time! I like how sexy, mysterious and prohibition vibes they gave this establishment. I love the staff there. They make the time there awesome. Be respectful and they will treat you with the upmost kindness. I have never ate there but I will be later!! Their drinks are just to die for. They know exactly what they are talking about with bourbon + whiskey. I would come here for a date night or something more intimate.

Excellent bourbon selection, food was great too. I can't say anything negative. I loved the patio, main bar and the back bar. It's a great restaurant to have an event or just go with friends.

Appealing restaurant with a cozy ambiance. We did not sit outside due to there being a wait and we had to be somewhere, so we sat at the bar. The bar tender was friendly. My husband ordered an old fashioned cocktail and was disappointed that it was a pre-made drink rather than mixed upon order, especially for the price. I had a glass of the Pinot Noir, which was very palatable. The food menu looked bleak and the gluten free options were confusing - I didn't ask about some of them as the bar tender seemed a little overwhelmed, but for example they had fish & chips listed as gluten free and the Korean fried chicken, but again I didn't ask about their GF toppings on these items. We shared an order of pork fries and Brussel Sprouts. They were both delicious. We also do not like online menus. I feel that a restaurant trying to be upscale should use physical menus. Online is just tacky in my opinion.

If you're looking for a no frills fun lounge with live music, go to Prohibition Gastro lounge. The service is friendly and the food is pretty good as well. Regarding the food, we decided to share their starters. The Korean fried chicken was very good -- it is lightly breaded and tossed in their Gochujang sauce. The dish is very large and definitely not what you'd expect from an appetizer/starter. The warm pretzels starters were very nice as well and coupled well with their spicy cheese sauce. The ground beef meatballs came topped with tomato ketchup and brown sugar. I'm a big meatball fan but the ketchup didn't work as well with it. It wasn't bad, but not great. Their cocktails were excellent!

After reading the good reviews on this place it is now clear that it was bad service to me. I decided to meet some friends in downtown Powell as I just moved to the area a year ago. We saw this place closed at 12am and so we thought it would be a great place to have some drinks and enjoy our self a bit late. We first went to a place across the street the street which by the way was also a little passive when we walked in. Yes, it was 9:30 pm when we arrived and they closed at 11pm, maybe they don't want business in the last hour and half. Not sure, any way We had a few drinks and decided to leave and go to Prohibition as it was original plan. This was literally 10:55pm. When we arrived front door was locked, although there was people there. With the Bartender ignoring us and door closed, we gave it the benefit of the doubt maybe is a private gathering. We looked at google and yelp to make sure it did closed at 12. Sure did, that is what it says.We decided hey maybe this part is closed let's go to the back since there were lots of people there, fire pit and a bar outside and a bar inside with cute decorations and just seem the right place for a last hour of some drinks and fun. When we got there some young didn't even look 21 kid said oh we're closing, I proceeded to say oh yelp & google both says 12am. He said maybe if you go to the bar inside they will sale you a drink, so still trying not to let it ruin our night, we went to the bar. There was an older lady with a very unpleasant attitude who proceeded to look at us up and down and moved her head like yes?! So I said can we please have 2 drink , she answered well we are closed but sure I can get you one drink and that is it. I told her, oh really Yelp and google both say you close at 12am. She said well we don't. Serve the drink, charged us, didn't even give us cocktail napkins or anything. Two people came after and she served drinks with no problem. We went to sit to this cute couch by the entrance of what it looks like a fixed garage to make it like a lounge feeling, trying to enjoy our drink. Which by the way was not free. Since we didn't get any napkins I went to ask and she was acting like she didn't know what I was talking about gave me some paper towels like the ones you use in bathroom. Cool, we still ignored her passive vibe and decide to just have our drink. She comes by a bit after to tell us that that area was gonna be closing down and if we wanted to, we can go by the fire pit for last minutes but that they we're gonna close that little area. Again, just trying to enjoy our we paid for drink and the night out, we moved to the fire pit. This was around 11:25 PM. She didn't say anything to the other couple that walked in after us, she was sitting by the bar, having a drink with a couple of other people, that Little area never close. It looked like there was just hanging out, at that point, it was very clear that the unwelcoming passive attitude was toward me and my guest. We finished our drink and decided to leave roughly around 11:50pm Super disappointed because we really wanted it to start getting to know the area that we moved to, where can we have some free time here and enjoy your dinner, nice strings and just go home. Unprofessional, passive, and unwelcoming attitude, makes it very difficult to wanna go back and spend your money there. Could be the color of my skin, who knows. It really felt that way. Please do better, I wasn't asking for free food or drinks. We were very respectful and all we want to do was have fun. PS please see photo attached to this review. It clearly states there the Friday and Saturday you do close at 12 AM.Thanks!

We didn't order any food this visit but our drinks were amazing. Nice outdoor seating

Update...still love this place! The food is decent, the drinks are good but the atmosphere here is the best!

The Food is the star here along with a good selection of alcoholic beverages. The servers are very friendly and come over several times to check on us and make sure we all were satisfied with everything. But the food has just what I go for along with service . The new owners really want people to have a great experience. And the outside patio area comes with an enclosed porch which is as relaxing an atmosphere as one could ask for at a restaurant which serves high end alcoholic beverages. If you and your significant other wants a great place to have an evening out together please go and give this place a try. I'm sure you'll have a great time and great food. $$$$
