A 20% surcharge just shows up on the receipt. On top of that, they put suggested tip requirements on an amount that includes the gratuity. Also, they only have an online menu (no physical menu available).

vibes were vibin' and the music was bumpin' all while I got drunk drinking a delicious cocktail and told my entire life story, in all its naursty detail, to my coworker. we then walked to the Chiu Quon next door but they were out of most things cuz it was 9:30, then we went to miniso and I bought a cute watermelon duck plushie, then we went to Mango Mango and got Durian dessert and tried going to Ping Tom park to eat it but got kicked out by the scummy park police (ACAB). anyways, bar was great, 10/10

This place is amazing. If you are looking for a night out in the stars, come to this bar. The stars aligned and the bartender, Marissa might as well be a psychic bc she knew what drinks we wanted as we looked at them quietly on the menu. She called them out as suggestions if she could read our minds. The music is bustin. Super kind, super friendly, beaut decor and fun ambience. The people who work here make this place a welcoming and fun place to just be. Thank you!!

Had high hopes for the previously well-rated Best Bar. Under new management and name "Cozy Garden Bar", this bar was a letdown. Bartender did not know much about the drink menu, poor service, and drinks were underwhelming.

Apparently this place went under new management and became "Cozy Garden Bar." The bartender was unfamiliar with the drink recipes, stemware was dirty, and decor was confusing (left over Christmas decorations?). Would not recommend.

I wanted to like this place so bad but it just wasnt it. Ill start with the pros: service was amazing, music was okay ( most 2000-2010 but like taio cruz and lady gaga), it wasn’t crowded, and the bartenders were very kind and helpful. The cons the decor is BAD, it doesnt look like the photos, there are about 4-5 different decor styles going on and its not working for the bar as a whole. It very much a bunch of random stuff, they do still have the very beautiful light fixture in the center. The prices were kinda high considering other bars in the area charging less with better decor. The additional cost isn’t worth it and the drinks were weak. Overall im glad i got to experience the bar but i wouldnt come back. This place very much needs to be on an episode of bar rescue

Wound up here by accident was trying to go to 9 bar but they were closed and the person working at the take out counter recommended we try best bar. I am glad she did!!! The drinks here are phenomenal thoughtful complex flavors that are perfectly balanced. The playlist was also really good and not too loud. I got a chance to talk to the new owner Javi and he told me they will be doing some renovations and changing the name to Cozy Garden. Excited to come back and see the new layout

Now called The cozy garden. Great service, great drinks and good atmosphere.
It’s under a new name now so I can’t remember. But great place, staff is incredibly nice. They have guest bartenders that come in and make things very entertaining as well.

Bartenders were nice and made good cocktails. The bar design was uncomfortable though, they need a footrest rail and the bartop overhang doesn't extend out far enough.

We did not order food and did not see a good menu. The cocktails were great. The mixologists were friendly and kind. I love the Star Wars theme drinks. Each time I go there is a different experience because there are different tenders and drink menu.

Amazing service and thoughtful cocktails. The gentleman who served us was incredibly helpful and attentive-- can't wait to visit again the next time I'm in Chicago!
