The Emerald

We did a Dr. Sketchy night here it was SO much fun. I haven't done live drawing in so long. It was very chill no pressure to be a top-notch artist.

Had a Whiskey. Enjoyed the atmosphere. Enjoyed the whiskey too ;)

Great holiday season party!

I struggled with this review. I was hoping to give it a better one. Only been here on a Thursday night and it was dead as disco. The bartender makes a mean cocktail of whatever you can think of, but it wouldn't hurt them to have more patrons to look at. I might give this place another chance

Nice happy hour location. Appies were bang for the bucks. Hidden gem in the China Town area.

Great drinks, cute hole in the wall! If your looking for an eclectic, sit down bar and delicious craft cocktails, this is the place for you!

Fantastic cocktails and retro decorThis hidden away on a Chinatown back street gem (you'd miss it if you weren't specifically looking for it) of a cocktail lounge is a must-experience. Their cocktail menu is creative and they are generous and well crafted. They do their own gin-infusion with lavender for the Lavender 75 cocktail which is amazing. The decor is tastefully done and feels authentic, not overdone. The appetizers we tried were also excellent. I haven't booked a private event here but have considered it and have corresponded with Saya, the event coordinator, who is very professional, prompt, friendly and helpful. The extensive choices of the four separate rooms and detailed event pricing guides are just what one needs when planning a large private event, so I am definitely considering the Emerald for this in future. But even just for a regular night out with divine cocktails and classy decor, this place in the back alley with the green door is well worth seeking out.

Do you like cocktails? Go here! Food is great too! I'm not even gonna talk about the insane decor. This place is essential if you are in Chinatown.

Highly recommend the Emerald for hosting private events. I've held two events there, with a third coming up soon, and they are wonderful to work with. Very helpful, quick to respond and fantastic service! It's such a great venue with good food and drinks.

Groovy place to hangout. Good cocktails, little overpriced.
