Tucked behind an unassuming curtain inside Still O.G., Alter Ego Cocktail Club emerges as a secret den of refined indulgence—a cocktail lounge that feels plucked from a noir film. This "speakeasy-style" hideout trades vinyl-booth energy for hushed elegance, offering a dramatic contrast to the bustling main bar. As soon as you're ushered beyond the entry, you're enveloped in dim lighting, plush seating, and an air of elusive sophistication. The ambiance is deliberate—secretive yet welcoming, with rooms that evoke an upscale cocktail era and creative theatrics. The menu mirrors this surreal charm: standout cocktails such as Asteroid Blues, Canyon Lullaby, and Kyushu Coffee showcase heightened creativity—from ingredients like avocado, lychee, passion fruit, to Black Sesame foam—and often come presented in whimsical vessels. Expect more than drinks: thoughtfully curated small plates and contemporary American tapas pair seamlessly with each handcrafted libation. This isn't just about drinks—it's about performance. The lounge invites you to linger, savor, and let each sip tell a story. Reservations are highly recommended, especially for weekend evenings, though walk-ins are accepted. Patrons and guides alike celebrate the richness of atmosphere and artful craft: AAA’s Trip Canvas flags it as a premium $$$$ experience in lounge and tapas fare; local spotlights praise its unforgettable dual personalities—vinyl lounge and speakeasy fusion at its best.
