Backyard Jr. Xinyi — Restaurant in Xinyi District

DO NOT COME! They got the worst server they could possibly hire.

The attitude was so rude. When she talked, she didn’t even look at us, no smile, nothing. We do not feel welcomed at all! Since we got seated outside, it was hot and my sister got bit by mosquitos. When we looked inside, there was only 1 to 2 tables occupied with people. There were plenty empty tables. Therefore, we asked the server politely if we could be moved inside if people didn’t show up. She straight up telling us that there is no way to be moved inside and if we don’t want to sit outside we should just go home and maybe come back the next time. She didn’t try to accommodate instead she just refused to make any kind of accommodations for us.

It is totally understandable that the restaurant is fully booked. My family and I are also fine to sit outside if she could talk to us with a better attitude or at least put on a smile.

My wife ordered cocktails, both of which were made with a high level of care. They clearly take a great deal of pride in paying attention to the finer details. For example, they use hand cut ice (the only way to make it clear) and pour rocks drinks to the right level to maintain the illusion of being ice-less and quite a beautiful.

This place was a surprise find when we left the hotel (which bar closed early) that we were pleased to have picked, even though it took some effort to locate in the rain for the...

I've never been to their original store, but after coming here, it's definitely on my to try list. they have a large collection of whiskies (in fact they barely have anything else). their cocktails are also mostly whiskey based. so whiskey lovers should definitely try this place out.

sadly the food is mediocre, so i wouldn't recommend this place if ur looking for a decent meal. For bar food standards though, they're decent.

Although the place isn't huge, the decor and atmosphere is chill.

I would come back again if i'm in the area and looking for...
