Craft Bar Kamon exceeded expectations! We decided on a speakeasy because we were celebrating a 21st birthday and wanted to treat the birthday girl to a more upscale experience. As we arrived, the door to the bar was completely hidden, so off the bat we had fun experiencing the hidden door opening. We were greeted with smiles and sat down at a comfortable table for 6. Shortly after we sat down, we were asked if we were open to moving to a private area toward the back of the bar. That set the mood for our entire night. We were led to a private room that was set up like a gorgeous living room with a record player and comfortable couch. It was the perfect setting to listen to music, dance and have conversations. Our server Amadeus was knowledgeable, fun, with a great personality, kind and attentive. I ordered based on Amadeus's recs: two gin based martini's (I'm not a martini person), Amadeus recommended I start with the Daikon Kobu Martini and then move on to the Perfect Sake Martini. They were both so good! From now on, I will only order Martini's at Craft Bar Kamon!! Definitely recommend and if you're lucky enough to get Amadeus as your server, you'll have a wonderful time!

Excellent service! Incredible selection and quality to both the food and the Sake. The staff are very knowledgeable and find great joy in talking about sake. I enjoyed it so much, I made a new reservation after the second course.
