Stylish speakeasy-style cocktail bar with creative Asian-leaning drinks and surprisingly good small plates; go for inventive cocktails, oysters, and the double smash burger.
IYKYK delivers solid A-grade performance through exceptional service attentiveness and strong bartender expertise paired with elevated bar food quality—oysters, lumpia, and the signature smash burger earn consistent praise. The stylish hidden-gem setting creates genuine destination appeal for cocktail-focused diners. However, occasional consistency dips and peak-hour service delays prevent grade A territory, while the bar-centric concept limits broader appeal.
One caveat: Pricing is genuinely expensive ($18 cocktails; $18-22 large bites) which may surprise casual diners
