Lost In Translation

Every cocktail at LIT is made with precision, creativity and a touch of theatre. Which one are you ordering first?

For us, mixology isn't just about mixing ingredients; it's about the exact science behind the craft. Every single drop is weighed with intent, every technique is deliberate, and every raw ingredient is curated to the millimeter.

Because when you are chasing the perfect balance of flavor, there is absolutely no room for guesswork.

Our Japanese twist on a Long Island iced tea. It’s zesty, intentionally strong, brilliantly green, and finished with a distinct melon kick from Midori.

This one is strictly for the bold. If you’re the type who appreciates a heavy pour but still demands a sharp, vibrant flavor profile that cuts through the noise, this is your drink.

Mother of Shrub (aka Mother Shrub). She is the powerful, tangy ruler of our cocktail menu. Crafted from a fiery balance of pineapple, vinegar, fresh yuzu, sugar, green cardamom, and a distinct touch of Ceylon cinnamon.

If you happen to meet Sam at the bar tonight, do not hesitate to ask him about her. Seriously! He will gladly drop everything to give you the full, passionate lore behind our house-made mother shrub.

The art of the cold smoke. 🪵💨 We select our wood like we select our spirits, with intent.

Every stream of smoke is chosen to unlock a specific depth of flavor: Kinoko No Genkaku: Enveloped in the delicate, floral sweetness of Sakura Wood to balance the earthy shiitake-infused whiskey and rich black sesame.

Shima No Uta: Infused with the bold, deeply resonant depth of Oak/Hickory to anchor the cocktail's profile.

Two distinct profiles, shaped entirely by the flame. Discover the science behind the smoke at the bar tonight.

The midpoint of the week deserves a change of pace. Wednesdays are officially reserved for cold beers and low lights. Consider it the perfect halfway marker.

Some call it a condiment; we call it fine art. We believe our house-made chamoi belongs in the Louvre, but until Paris calls, it’s holding court right here as the star ingredient in our Saboten No Namida.

The formula is simple: great wine and effortless conversation🖤

Bring your favorite date or your best friend and we’ll provide the wine, you bring the commentary. Because once the glass is full, the yapping takes care of itself. Every single time.
