Wow, fantastic bar!We are from the SF bay area and were visiting our daughter for her 21st. This speakeasy is fabulous and highly recommended. We walked by it twice not noticing the name on the door. The bar was full and full of energy. We were lucky to score some spots at the bar. The drinks were fascinating and rich with the number of unique ingredients. It was a hip crowd with many groups and a few dates. The bartender was engaging and provided excellent recommendations. Highly recommended! We will visit every time we are in the area.

I like it! Very demure cocktail bar haha. I went on a Wed night at 7:30p. There were max 5 other ppl at the bar. Music was played at a low volume. Vibe could be whatever u want it to be tbh. The cocktail list was definitely specialized, about 7 drinks on there but it was a full bar. I definitely enjoyed my drink. Just had one while enjoying my book. Lovely calm night. The service was also nicely attentive. No complaints really besides the difficulty figuring out the entrance.

This spot is very cute and spacious! It's an intimate vibe with mood lighting. The server was nice. It's a speakeasy in the south side which is fun since the outside is very discrete. The menu has a limited number of cocktails on there, 6. Our group tried a lot of the drinks. Many of us got the perfectly spring and it was very strong. I think it's a drink that is made basically with all alcohol. The sailors say drink was really good albeit spicy. Someone said it tasted like an Italian sausage and I could see it. Friends liked the suntory time a lot. The coffee cocktail on the menu was also really good. It's a cool spot to check out if you're in the area! They are pretty creative with their creations.

Acacia continues to stand as one of the absolute best cocktail bars in Pittsburgh - and truly one of the best cocktail bars I've ever been to. They have such a sophistication about them, serving all drinks in elegant glassware. Menu is always rotating and they have always have a punch on special, but they can whip up truly any drink your heart desires. Bartenders are passionate about their craft and will take time to understand what you like and make you something outstanding. A classy bar with a Prohibition theme - it's an absolute must-go when in Pittsburgh. They have several booths and some tables in the back, as well as bar seating. Truly one of the finest cocktail bars around!

Love love this place. Classy bar. Delicious cocktails with good vibes. I'm not sure if this is an always thing but since there is no food, the staff allowed us to bring outside food. I will definitely be coming back to this place!!

I visited acacia for the first time and really loved their cocktails. I was afraid that without reservations, the wait would be too long. But even on a Saturday evening in Southside, we easily got a table at 8:30pm. I got The Architect which was spicy and refreshing. The service is amazing and they will make any drink off the menu as well. I asked for a Mai Tai and got the best one I've ever had. Definitely recommend this bar to go to with friends. The ambience is also easy-going and chill for catching up with friends or relaxing after a long day.

From the boarded up windows to the minimalistic decor this charming prohibition inspired cocktail bar has an amazing atmosphere.The drink menu changes seasonally. They have a great variety of different cocktails.The staff are friendly incredible nice and helpful. An established like this could easily be pretentious but this place is not. They seem to really care about the drinks they make and the experience their customers have.I would definitely recommend this place!

Small cocktail bar along E Carson St. Very much has speak easy vibes with little to no curb appeal. It's dimly lit once inside complimenting the speakeasy feel. Phenomenal cocktails and knowledgeable bartenders! It is a small space with a back room that is sometimes closed to public for private events. Stop in for a cocktail!

Acacia has the coolest, low-key, speakeasy vibes... darkly lit with the windows boarded and an entire wall of liquor bottles above the bar. Their cocktail menu is creative and thoughtful. My husband loved the Old Fashioned, and I really enjoyed The Architect. The bartenders are very attentive and knowledgeable, too!

This is the best place to get a cocktail in the south side! The bar is small and hidden, so it is very easy to walk past without even realizing it. The staff are amazing and super friendly here. My friend and I were greeted the second we walked in on a busy Saturday night. The bartender gave us water right when we sat down at the bar and continued to fill it throughout the night without us even asking. The drinks they made were also very good. They have an apple cider punch on the day we went for $6 a glass. Very reasonable price for a great cocktail, definitely the best price I've seen at a cocktail place.
