Super great ambience with really cool light up shimmer drinks! I loved all of the details in the decor with the Jinx photo op and Vi’s punching game. It was cool to be around other fans too and hearing them talk about the show. I bought one of the limited edition mugs and its a really great size with a thumb rest on the handle. To be honest though the razzle shimmer was not my favorite, but you get the drink for the cool souvenir shimmer vial anyway. Its a really nice size I can reuse for everyday drinks and it lights up! I would definitely go again.

This is a really cute spot in the area. Quiet yet charming. And the wait staff was very attentive and pleasant. I French Onion soup was not at all salty, but had a rather sweet, nutty flavor. Quite a lovely surprise.
