A wonderful adventure back in time to a Speakeasy perfectly designed to make it feel like you and your friends are in a private room. A must experience if you love great food and cocktails.

This was an absolutely amazing experience!!! Lauren was not only professional and attentive, she shared her very extensive knowledge of bourbon with us throughout dinner. Amazing!!

This teturn visit was a very nice dining experience. Attentive but not overly intrusive service, great food and drinks and nice surroundings. Menu has changed and was a bit more limiting but we both found meals to enjoy. The pork chop meal was outstanding. We will go back to our special spot.

Black Rabbit is our go to neighborhood restaurant/bar/speakeasy. Best old fashioned in town and the nachos and sliders are so good. The dining room has the most comfortable chairs and the wait staff are friendly and efficient. Really enjoy our evenings at the Rabbit.

The place was practically empty and somewhat depressing. The staff were excellent and went out of their way to try to make it a nice experience. The menu is actually terrible. There would be no reason to return unless you like the feeling of sitting in a"dark closet" .

Our large party (23ish) reserved private room. We were provided a center room where several patrons outside of our party walked through to get from the front to the back, or back to front room room. Only mention this for large parties in future in case expectation is one of privacy. Based on the private party room location (a walk through for this restaurant) you probably won't get it.We had three large sitting areas after as many of the tables we could push together without creating a fire hazard. The high back chairs were awesome! Super comfortable!While our servers were top notch, there were only two of them. This made everything slow and created situations where some people had drinks, appetizers, salads, entrées etc and others waited.. and waited... For our size party a minimum of three servers, preferably four may have prevented this. Two =too few.It was several hours before our dinner orders were even taken. It made for a longer than expected night. (Thankfully everyone in our party enjoys each other's company!) lolMost everyone enjoyed the food and the speak easy charm.I ordered the trout which I was not a fan of. Skin on, was not crisp. Very fishy, and I tasted earth.. wondering if beets was an ingredient? I would not recommend the trout.I had a great salad prior though with blue cheese and apples. While many appetizers were ordered and enjoyed I didn't sample any.I tried three of the desserts though and if you like a rich sweet chocolate, go for the one with marshmallows.As a Pescetarian, I personally would not return as there was only trout or redfish option and no good solid vegetarian option barring the fish selection.That said, if you're a carnivore, I heard there are several great selections to choose from.Vegetarian options: I wouldn't recommend this place for vegetarian or vegan.

Time of arrival and waiter taking order was excessive. Food? Delicious! Drinks? Amazing! I did not care for being told there was another reservation on our table in 45 minutes, it made me feel as if the waiter was saying “okay, time to go!” That may just be me.

I have been several times, this time was a bit slower than usual. There seemed to be a shortage of servers. However when available, Austin was very personable and knowledgeable. Overall, it was a good experience!

We had a fantastic time! It was my boyfriend's birthday and I requested for an Old Fashioned to be ready upon arrival if possible, and they made it happen! Austin was incredible and we all had the best time!! I can't wait to come back!!

The service was excellent, but the food was pretty terrible. We had the nachos (ok, but ridiculously small with individual chips for the price), the tuna wontons (tuna was meh and chewy), the NY strip (has no flavor, was tough & fatty), and a burger. The burger was the best thing on the table.

4 of us, none of which was very much happy with the food quality. The trout was very overcooked, dry and tasteless and the ratatouille accompnaiment, altho decently flavored, was runny and also overdone. The appetizers were uneven altho there were a few positives. All in all, it was a disappointment.

We were initially intrigued by the thought of a speakeasy and small chef inspired plates. It was unfortunately a let down. The Woodford old fashioned was watered down and ginger snap was lacking. The pickled vegetables were salty, tempura batter flaked off and there were nuggets of uncooked batter that were unappealing. The server never asked if I enjoyed as I left half the dish. Oysters Rockefeller were over cooked and the kale twist was a “miss”. We did not stay past appetizers and do not recommend.

Entering through a bookshelf was very cool. The atmosphere was unique. We came for drinks which were good but I was hoping they'd be great. Will come again but will try different drinks. Staff was very friendly.
