Black Rabbit

Black Rabbit has a refreshed interior and - y'all - it's worth a look. I was here recently for a happy hour and the self proclaimed 'modern speakeasy' is lush and romantic, giving elevated date night (hint hint, get those Galentines / Valentines reservations booked!). The service is exceptional, try their signature Maple Cinnamon Old Fashioned if bourbon is your thing, I enjoyed it.

Black Rabbit is pretty neat. Justin was our server and gave tour of the restaurant and speakeasy. Definitely a spot to revisit with people from out of town. The Madhattan was excellent.

This is a nice spacious lounge. The music was nice to relax and unwind to. The service was fast and the server and hostess were very nice. The owner came by and greeted everyone. While I didn't get to hear the live band the background music was still very nice. The drinks are very strong and they have a nice bourbon selection. I wasn't very crazy about the food but the mac and cheese was yummy.

Had a fabulous girls night at Black Rabbit! The bartender was fabulous and accommodated all my random cocktail requests, and the food was 10/10! The okra hush puppies were SO amazing, but the banana pudding was the star! So creamy and bruleed so well! Great service rounded out this awesome night!

The atmosphere is fun, dark, red lighting. This was my first speak easy, you enter through a bookcase that you knock on and they ask you what your reservation is. Pretty fun!The place is pretty small. Which is fine, but I could see being a problem if you wanted to go with a large group. Which is probably a better choice. My wife and I went, and while we had fun and it was a cool experience, it was more of a novelty going with just one other person. Our bar tender Austin was chill and awesome. Made great drinks and his recommendations were spot on. The cookies and cream desert looked awesome, but sadly it was just ice cream with cookies crammed in it. Which I guess technically was cookies and cream, but individual tastes rather than the normal CNC mix. It was good though. The fries were very tasty too!Cool place to check out if you have never been to a speak easy, but probably more fun to bring another couple or a small party.

For my birthday we came. It was not so fun. They didn't even provide us with the cake. We had to bring one ourselves also the food that was not worth it. They kept giving me Dr Pepper even though I didn't ask for more although I do love Dr Pepper. It would've been nice if they ask me first Also the pork chop tasted like chicken and was definitely not worth $40. The entrance was cool but I didn't love this place.

Came here for a casual business dinner, love how good the food was and how great the service was. The service is what blew us out of the water. We had a group of about 10 and had excellent service the whole night. Our drinks were never empty!My only complaint about this place is the seating. Our party was sat on essentially two couches with a few hardback chairs pulled up. There was a coffee table in the middle. Some of our party ordered steak and this set up made it a wee bit difficult to cut into the food. Overall I am looking forward to coming back as their smaller tables seem to be set up a bit easier to eat at!

I really like the ambiance of this place. You feel like you are stepping into a relaxed hidden spot away from the rest of the world. There is very little light, which makes it harder for an older person like me to read the menu, even with my reading glasses. The bartender in the speakeasy had to turn on a small lamp to see to make cocktails. Although it is advertised as you have to go through a bookcase to get to the speakeasy, that is a little misleading. The restaurant tables are actually right behind the bookcase. The host, waitress, and back waiter, were all very nice. They were efficient. The food was excellent. My friend had the special of the evening-Shrimp and Grits. I had Oyster Mushroom Bucatini and for an appetizer we had Yellowfin Tuna Wontons. As we were sitting at our table, we noticed people going behind a white curtain. I thought it was off to have a curtain hanging as a divider in an upscale restaurant. We asked, and found out that was where the speakeasy was located. IMO that is where the bookcase should have been, not a curtain. We told the waitress we would go check it out after we finished dinner. She said she would have to check and see if there was room. We were kinda confused as how it could be packed back there. She told us there were 2 seats at the bar for us. We walked back there, thinking there were only 2 seats left, but every chair at the bar was available. LOL There were tables back there and some dining was happening, but people had to eat more off coffee type tables. The bartender Austin was nice and accommodating. I would for sure recommend everyone check this place out at least once. I did expect more choices for craft cocktails. There were maybe 5 to choose from. They didn't have any Green Chartreuse at the bar. I was hoping for the Final Word, but the Boulevardier and the Locust were good, as well as the chocolate martini.

Love, Love, Love this place! Went for the first time the other night and had cocktails and a few starters! The sliders were amazing and so was their Dark ESP (espresso martini!). We will be back!!

Overpriced, poorly made cocktails. Pretentious, uncultured atmosphere. Caucasian retiree haven. If it was an actual speakeasy, it would be the easiest to find. Had high hopes for a date night with some live jazz, but we were the only people under 65 years old.
