What People Are Saying About Vault Martini Bar

In Short – This Pearl spot exudes approachable sophistication, from local artwork above the fireplace to the chattering crowd in power suits. Patrons mingle amid shoulder-to-shoulder plush couches, tables and cozy corner booths sipping one of more than 50 martinis. Start with Agent Orange (vodka, amaretto and fresh orange) and work your way alphabetically toward the Violet Concoction. Plenty of margaritas and non-martini-inspired cocktails also share the menu with food offerings like an organic salad or chicken panini.

Great drinks, I love the bananna drop! Happy hour is great, but I would like to see some food on that menu too. Doesn't stop me though :)

friendly service, good drinks
by Uncle Steve at Citysearch
They bar is fantastic. I drive from SE to get there for drinks on a monthly basis. It always have fast, friendly service, the drinks have character and are slightly artsy; there is a martini for every one and they have one for you. So give them a shot. The drinks are hot!
- Pros: Fun social bar
- Cons: pricey

Worst Service and Food!!!!
by UltimateFoodLover at Citysearch
I could write a novel here, but I wont. The service is not friendly, and it is not nice. This place is WAAAAY understaffed. Who in their right mind would staff a place that could easily seat 100 people, with only one slow bartender and only one slow server? Not to mention the cook is running the food. Weird. Basically we waited 10 minutes to be greeted, 15 minutes for water and had to ask twice, we waited about 20 minutes for our drinks, and about 15 minutes for food. The food part is the only one worth waiting 15 minutes for. Except it wasn't. The chicken skewers were dry and came with a bland tomato sauce. The mozzarella tomato salad had just tomato and cheese. There was no olive oil or vinegar or salt or BASIL or anything to make it edible! It was so bland. I wanted salt but I couldn't even find the server to ask her. We finally got our drinks with our last bite of food and they were just okay. The blud (they won't let me write the word) orange mimosa was kinda gross because the puree was really gooey and there was too much of it. My fingers were all sticky the second I touched the glass. I really would only recommend this place if you have about an hour for one drink and a bland appetizer and don't mind crappy service. Why don't people smile anymore? It's so bizarre.
- Pros: Lot's of drink options
- Cons: Horrible service and food
