Always has excellent bartenders and the experience is always a positive one. Masters at taking your particular mood into account when making a dealers choice. Haven’t had one yet that I didn’t thoroughly enjoy! Ability to bring in outside food.

Great find!! Looks like a hole in the wall place, but once inside you're treated to a superb cocktail experience! Pat & Shane were fun to visit with and crafted some delicious cocktails for us on a rainy Monday afternoon! Wish we had found this place before our last day in town! They also have us excellent recommendations for eating in the area too, which we took their advice and had a fabulous dinner across town! All in all this is a stop with making, even if you have to go out of your way. It may not look like much from the outside but you won't be sorry stopping at this very cool bar with a distinct prohibition vibe and craft cocktail-loving mixologists!

The service was so nice, they make personalized cocktails according to flavors you like if you ask!!

Even if you’re looking for it you might find yourself walking right past it without even noticing it.. not sure how that works as a business model but it does lend to the atmosphere once you are inside. They have great staff that are great at helping you find a suitable cocktail even if it’s not on the menu.

My wife and I loved our first visit here over the weekend. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the service and drinks at the bar were amazing! The staff really know their spirits, and the delicious drinks are fun to watch being built. We will certainly be returning, hopefully soon.

Fantastic cocktails! Have an egg and dairy allergy, and they reworked an espresso martini to work for me!! Our server, Phil, was great and really fun to chat with. Absolutely will be back for more!!!

This place is spectacular. I loved every drink the bartenders made, and the bartenders were friendly and helpful. They recommended drinks based on my drink preferences, and the suggestions did not disappoint. I am coming back again, and I recommend you do the same.

Acacia has absolutely fantastic cocktails and the bartenders making them are superb and highly professional in their craft. The atmosphere is somehow both spirited and intimate. The music they play is also a solid vibe.
