How we score

The editorial take

A 20-drink cocktail list runs from Bramble and Hemingway Daiquiri to a Sazerac built on the house rye selection with an Herbsaint rinse. The Smoked Old Fashioned is the showpiece: Four Roses Bourbon, La Perruche sugar cubes, Angostura bitters, fresh citrus peel, and hickory smoke applied per drink. A members-only Vault holds over 100 premium selections with temperature-controlled lockers. Italian-inspired small plates and wood-fired pizzas are available alongside the drinks.

What should I order?
Start with the Smoked Old Fashioned, built on Four Roses Bourbon with La Perruche sugar cubes, Angostura bitters, fresh citrus peel, and hickory smoke. The Sazerac, using the house rye selection and an Herbsaint rinse, is the other clear order.
Who will enjoy this place?
Drinkers who want a long, classic-leaning cocktail list with specific builds and a smoked signature will find plenty here. The Vault membership appeals to those who want personal temperature-controlled locker storage.
What makes the beverage program distinctive?
The Smoked Old Fashioned is smoked individually with hickory wood, and the Sazerac uses Red Phone Booth's own rye selection with an Herbsaint rinse. Custom diamond or sphere ice and hand-chipped ice are part of the preparation.
