Prohibition Party at Oculto 477
On Thursday, December 5 between 5 p.m. and 12 a.m. the newly opened Oculto 477, a Prohibition-style speakeasy hidden inside Tahona, honors the anniversary of the United States’ historic repeal of Prohibition by encouraging guests to dress up circa 1920’s fashions and sip from a menu of historic cocktails within San Diego’s newest secret space. Guests can choose from a selection of historically significant drinks created by bartenders of yesteryear, from Shims and Sours to Old Fashioneds and Fizzes. During this evening, Tahona will also offer a special drink menu throughout its bar and dining area, to include two of Oculto 477’s concoctions for those who don’t wander their way into the secret speakeasy. Walk-ins are welcome; dinner reservations at Tahona can be made at www.tahonabar.com.
