The Hidden Pearl
This secret hot spot certainly isn't the type of speakeasy you're used to. It's not dark, stuffy, or overplaying any prohibition vibes. Located behind minimalist ramen restaurant Wanpaku, The Hidden Pearl serves up Japanese-influenced cocktails in a bright, airy space worthy of an Instagram or two. Maybe all speakeasies should have skylights.
