"At the top of a short flight of stairs in a parking garage downtown, Small Victory is a fairly small cocktail bar with a large selection of spirits, an extensive cocktail menu, and a great list of wines and sherries available by the glass. You can definitely pop in here with a small group, but the majority of the tables are two-seaters, both on the same side, so it’s definitely more of a date night destination. You can make reservations ahead of time, or just walk up to the little red gate on East 7th and give the bar a buzz—we’ve had pretty good luck walking in relatively early in the night.

"Don’t be fooled by the downtown location — head up the stairs through a parking garage to be treated to comfy sofas and booths in this intimate cocktail bar. In addition to an extensive cocktail menu, there is a huge selection of spirits, wines, and other aperitifs. There are indoor dine-in services" - Darcie Duttweiler
"Tucked away above a parking garage entrance is Small Victory, one of the city’s best cocktail bars around. Owner and bar veteran Josh Loving and lead bartender Laura Maddox are passionate about their crafts and it shows with their classic drinks. Plus there are snacks. There are indoor dine-in services." - Nadia Chaudhury
