Reviews from our guests
Ryan Day
3 months agoI've been going to Clockwork for about 4 years now and the addition of Pepe is probably one of the best decisions they've ever made. Homeboy makes quick, yummy cocktails and is one of the funniest people I've met. Ask him for an egg white Espresso Martini/Whiskey Sour or a mojito, even when it's busy, they are his specialty.
Sara Rosas
3 months agoThe food is incredible and not talked about enough! My friend had her reception dinner there and the wedding dinner could not even compare. Amy could run the tables with her eyes closed. Some of the best service we’ve ever had at a restaurant/bar. The drinks are always incredibly delicious and even if we don’t start the night at Clockwork, we always end up there before the night is over!
Lisa Galanis
a year agoWhat a great spot to enjoy a bite to eat, great local music, and exceptional service. The staff here is attentive and friendly. The food is great (try the falafel - it's homemade!) and they even have drinks specials. The cocktails are inventive too! ♿️ wheelchair accessible. The women's room has a huge stall and is easy to access. The front door is street level and easy to navigate.

3 months agoPepe at Clockwork was absolutely amazing! Great energy, super attentive, and made the whole experience even better. Drinks were perfect, service was fast, and he made us feel so welcomed. Definitely one of the best bartenders—can’t wait to come back and see him again!
Lisa Garcia
3 months agoHighly recommend Clockwork for a night out! Aime is our favorite bartender! From the moment you sit down she’s welcoming, attentive, and genuinely makes you feel taken care of. She has a great personality and creates such a fun, relaxed atmosphere for our group every time!
Kayla Pelkey
3 months agoRecently had a night out with my husband and stopped here for an appetizer and drinks. We loved the atmosphere and the bartenders were all friendly. Amy was so helpful, she helped find something for both of us as we don’t get out much to try new drinks. We’ll definitely be back!

3 months agoClockwork has become a favorite of mine! The atmosphere is fantastic, but the people really make the place. Aime is a phenomenal bartender. She only makes fantastic drinks. It’s clear that the owner, Souheil, truly cares about every customer's experience. It is a great place to grab a bite to eat while enjoying the relaxing vibe. Highly recommend!

3 months agoI had my rehearsal dinner here privately before my wedding and everything was so perfect. The food, the service, the atmosphere! Amy was our server and she handled with grace a table of 25 people. I couldn’t have asked for anything better. As if the rehearsal dinner wasn’t enough of a spectacular event, we then rolled into a welcome drinks event party where all guests that were already in town met. All of our friends from New York raved about what an amazing space it was and how they accommodated for us. Kellie organized that for us and I wish I had photos to share, but that’s how amazing it was. We were able to live entirely in the moment and tell everyone after that it was one of our most memorable nights!

11 months agoWe came in on a random Wednesday and enjoyed half price tapas from 5 to 7! They have a great selection of drafts and unbelievable bourbon selection! I can't believe they have Van Winkle Lot B, Weller FP, EH Taylor single barrel, and a few Parker's Heritage! Our server/bartender Kelly was amazing! She greeted us with a smile and was on top of everything we asked for when we needed it without being a helicopter! Fantastic food and fantastic service. Thanks Kelly! Edit: had to come back and give a shout out to this incredible musician, Dunlow! It looks like he is here every Wednesday after 7! (His IG is itsjustdunlow).
Shari Johnson
7 months agoVisited this bar for the first time. It was part of the bar nation 200s bar crawl. The vibe, decor, staff, food, and drinks were all great! Definitely a place to add to my list to Visit again. Oh if you go get the gnocchi and pesto its 🔥 the cauliflower is really good too
