“Amazing bar. Friendly staff. Have come here with friends to watch games and karaoke. They have karaoke on Wednesday, Thursday and sunday from 8pm till closing. They also have two pool tables. I like coming here because you can be with friends, hang out, and have fun. I come here most of the time with a group of 5 and we all have fun. Will be coming here more often to watch games and karaoke.“
“This place still got it! We haven't been here in years and wow, we had a blast. There is an entrance charge and food is pricey but it's worth it with the imitators coming into the stage and performing a great show. Well worth your time if your a Latino!“
“This past weekend, I had the chance to visit Mirate without a reservation. Given it was Coachella weekend, I imagine it's usually tough to get a table here without a wait. Right from the moment we walked in and were directed to the bar area, I felt like something special was about to unfold. The environment was both open and lush, creating a sense of bliss similar to the feeling of being on vacation. The drinks menu was impressive, and I thoroughly enjoyed the La Soñadora, a clarified milk punch, out of the two I tried. We ordered five dishes, and four really stood out. I would definitely order the pork belly tacos, kampachi aguachile, jalapeño cornbread, and the baby gems again. We were too full to try the churros, although we wanted to. Our server was wonderful and played a big part in making our afternoon at Mirate a 5-star experience.“
“This is a very cool place. The food is delicious and the service is spot on. They have a motorcycle theme, and they have motorcycles on display, they have a store on premises to got swag. They have a tattoo parlor and a barber shop. It's really a cool place to go.“
“Always good. It's just always good. Great environment, relaxed but it you want to be fancy you'll still fit right in. Good service, great drinks, good food. Superb people watching. Everyone's preferred first date spot. If you arrive early you can visit the garden and say hello to the chickensParking is always the worst so be prepared to pay to park whether you park in a lot or valet just be aware that the valets are going to park your car on the street same as everyone else ?I wish they were open in the morning for coffee, even if it was just a little cart with simple coffee and pastries only.Parking: Parking is always the worst so be prepared to pay to park whether you park in a lot or valet just be aware that the valets are going to park your car on the street same as everyone else ?Everywhere in the vicinity is like that, the curse of a cool neighborhood. And also the city rezoned the parking and reduced the numbers of spots to maybe 1/2 or 1/3 of what there was and made huge unnecessary red zones everywhere, but that's another story ?☕“
“Really delicious food. Tiny outside eating area. Valet parking, which is good because this isn't a neighborhood where you'd like to be walking around at night getting to your car.Kid-friendliness: NoWheelchair accessibility: Yes“
“Great place. Wide variety of Craft Beer from local highly rated breweries such as Green Cheek (one of my favorites). Service from all staff on point, always willing to assist with beer related questions, if not too familiar with the craft life, Stephen is always helpful and pleasant. If you prefer something off beer, the sake margarita is a must.“
“Went here for the first time in a while, bought a bunch of drinks for my rugby teammates and even though they never paid me back, I still had a great time. The old fashioned was really good, service was great, the inside looks amazing. 10/10 would let my teammates mooch off here me again.“
“1st Tryout After Seeing Rave Reviews. They Serve St Menu Only. Tae (A Bridge Over Paddy & Fields) / Yang (A Lotus Flower In The Mud) / Saeng (Life Begins) / Dae (Sometimes Nomadic) / Wang (Remain In Between) / Wang (Remain In Between) / Byung (Finally Realize) / Jeol (Wait For Another w Doubt). Beef Short Ribs Stand Out. Overall , It Was A Very Good Food & Enjoyable Experience.“
“Woah, such a cool place! Super awesome that it is dog friendly, has great food, alcohol, wifi, and a bunch of outlets around the area if you want to do some work. I came here with my bf and we stumbled upon this place by chance because all of the other coffee shops were packed with people and so we ended up just walking around. We just walked up to the parking area and asked the guard if there were any coffee shops nearby with wifi and outlets. It just so happened, he pointed at this bike shed behind him and said he thinks this place has all the things we were looking for. We were skeptical because there were just a bunch of motorcycles behind him so we were confused. We decided to check it out anyway and this place has easily become such a hole in the wall, great find! Service is amazing and they made us feel like it was home. Food was so good! We got the margarita pizza, the zucchini fries, and a beer. I would 10/10 order everything again plus more if we had the chance to come back. Lots of dogs coming in and out with their owners, so I was very happy about that! My pup, Benny, loves this place and I bet he would love to come back as well.“

“I made a Resy reservation to celebrate our wedding anniversary. Street parking was accessible and convenient a few steps away from the location. Once we walked in, I was greeted by first name by the host behind the bar who directed us to follow Lisa, our server, to our table for two in the garden patio. Once seated, she asked if we'd like to turn on the heated lamp, which we appreciated. We ordered the Hunan BBQ Pork Ribs (so meaty and smoky), Chilled Sesame Peanut Noodles (which my wife commented would be an ideal dish during a warm summer night), Lemongrass Chicken Banh Mi (served on a toasted, pillowy brioche bun), paired with a side of the Shoestring Fries. Lastly we enjoyed an unexpected gift from the kitchen - Shanghai Triple Onion Noodles, which was a warm dish in contrast to the other cold noodles. As a thoughtful gesture, the bartender, offered us two glasses of champagne to acknowledge our occasion. To cap off our unforgettable meal, we ordered the Hochija Tres Leches and Honeymoon Bread Pudding. The perfect conclusion to a delicious and well-thought out dinner. For a location with a history dating back to the prohibition era (informed by Lisa), I'm glad to see it's continuing it's life as a bar with an innovative kitchen. As I mentioned last night, the dinner was great but the service was even better! Thank you for making our anniversary dinner memorable :)“
“This is literally the funniest and fun beer bar I’ve ever been to,but I find myself addicted to their Caesar salads they find themselves addicted to my poor sense of humor. I find myself addicted to tipping them more.They find themselves addicted to inviting me more. we formed a perfect relationship, but I will tell you the service is great they’re extremely friendly and the food quality is incredible.This isn’t dive bar food.They have a really great area for outdoor seating right on the corner and they have a number of sandwiches. I’d like to try.They also offer vegan options, but the number of craft beers here are exceptional and I find this place so pleasant“
“This place is great for a big group hang out or celebration. The food is amazing and drinks are super good (and strong). Very affordable as well. The person who took our order was very friendly and attentive. Overall, my first experience with this place was great and I'd go back again.“
“Quality, presentation and hospitality are beyond excellent and over the top! Super delicious, super friendly. You're gonna get the full treatment here like you would in Japan. The atmosphere here felt like an upscale but really casual place that's good for every occasion and large groups.We can’t wait to come back and try their tomahawk steak!“
“Cool little bar to watch a game & grab a drink. We also ordered some chicken nachos & they hit the spot. The parking was a little tricky, but we found parking on the street (not sure if there was additional parking in the back somewhere). I enjoyed looking at their wall art - very LA. The service was good too!“
“Super cool bar I would have never found on my own. Met some friends here the other weekend. Good cocktails, and they serve food too. Was here on a Saturday night at ~10pm. The crowd was good, it was filled enough, but still able to get seats at the bar. Liked it so much, came back again the next night!“
“Terrific restaurant to get Japanese street food. The staff is very friendly and provides great service. The food is made to order fresh. The grilled vegetables are all very good. The forbidden rice bowl had an amazing array of flavors throughout.“
“The food is very inventive and unusual combining ingredients you would normally not think of. So delicious it makes you want to come back for more. I would eat here a few times while I'm here. We came here last time and returned again. We will be back.“
“Kinda fell in love with the place last night. Saw a perfect gig (Rose City Band), the staff was lovely, the music was on point and exactly what I'm into, the record store's great, it's all damn great and I'd make it my second home if I lived in LA.“
“One of my new favorite bars in LA!! Came here after attempting to eat quarter sheets pizza, and it did not disappoint. Bartender was friendly and great at memorizing orders. Ambiance was friendly and warm all around. Loved that their drinks are different, with latin influences which fit the atmosphere. These people deserved their spot in the top 22 best bars in LA“
“This is literally the best bar in LA!! If you’ve ever watched Cheers, Crawford’s is where you go and every body knows your name. The best food, THE BEST SERVICE ❤️❤️, the best pool play in town hands down. Glad there’s no alcohol here so I can stay longer!!“
“Food is amazing, fresh and looks incredible. It will get pricy to get full so be prepared to order more than you think. Service was also wonderful. Our only complaint was the epic volume level of the restaurant. Something with the acoustics but we were pretty much forced to shout at each other to be heard. Also outdoor dining didn’t look appealing being right on Hyperion with a ton of traffic in your face.“
“I really enjoyed dining at Edendale. The beer selection was above-average, the food top-notch, and the service was outstanding. Our server, I believe her name was Missy, was efficient, friendly, and, dare I say, playfully flirtatious. Her charm made this meal memorable in just about every way. I'll be sure to visit Edendale when I'm in this part of town again.“
“Loved the underground vibes. It was so dark and exciting just getting to your seat. Music was cool but not too loud, which was great for connecting to your date via witty banter and conversation. Sitting at the bar made you feel like the bartender was there just for you. Drinks were balanced, well presented, and delicious.“
“I'm a frequent visitor to this restaurant because I appreciate the quality of the food and the excellent value for the price. From the flavorful Angry Chicken to the delectable Kimchi Fried Rice, every dish I've tried has been delicious, with generous portion sizes.“
“Had a great time at this cozy sake joint. Our group tried 3 sakes, all of which were top-notch and showcased the diversity of flavors sake can hold. The food was also great — we had the chicken katsu sando, the okonomiyaki, the salt and pepper tofu, and the kurodai otsukuri. The atmosphere is great too.“
“We had a great time at Escondite, the patio is great, heated & enclosed enough to keep much of the weather from you. The interior reminds me of a few Seattle bars I've been to. Narrow, booths, antler chandeliers. It seems decidedly Northwest. While I enjoyed the gig, the place isn't really set up for a rock/punk show. It seems to me designed for a low key band where patrons would enjoy the music from their seats. Well drinks are about $10 & this place seems to love Malort!“
“This place is amazing. My friend made reservations for us about a month in advance. We were seated right away. We had the options of either seafood or beef menu. We choose the beef menu. This is my first dining experience so I was looking forward to everything. This was a unique 12 course experience and the staff here did an amazing job. Every item that came out was very good. Tucked inside a hotel you wouldn't know about this place but I am glad my friend found it. We now made it a yearly thing to come back here and have dinner here now“
“Joseon is an excellent choice for a great date night in Silverlake, Los Angeles. The "less is more" ambiance is favorable, the music is not loud so conversations come easier, the staff is attentive, and the food is pretty special. The name gives the impression of a golden era of Korean dining, and an experience designed for royalty, and we definitely felt that throughout the night. My partner and I started with a cocktail/mocktail because they sounded unique (and they were). We ordered a 7 course and a 5 course, thinking that we could try to get a good variety when there were two options for some of the courses. We opted for wine flight pairing as well, and were surprised how well selected the options were. I'd recommend that a party of 2 orders the same number of courses, however, because we didn't always both get a course. We shared about everything though, so it ended up being fine. Also, knowing the process to expect for a 7 course meal will make a difference in how you appreciate the timing. Courses are spaced out by anywhere from 15-25 minutes, so expect to be in the restaurant for at least 2-2/12 hours, or more. We were at our table for just short of 3 hours, but we also talked with the staff a bit while enjoying an espresso with dessert. This kind of timing, in this context, is a good thing, because it means that the kitchen doesn't have a bunch of plates being pre-made then waiting to be delivered by wait staff who also have other tables to attend to. The chef freshly prepares each dish for your specific table, and then it's presented immediately. That makes for a top quality dining experience, where each of these dishes was not only a work of art but also presented for enjoyment, just as the chef and their team intends. We enjoyed the 7 courses! I think our favorite was the Braised Stew with Sea Bass, and the Rice Cake dish with Zucchini Blossom. The Sea Trout Tartare was also a nice way to start the meal. The aromas coming off many of those dishes was memorable. The dessert they brought wasn't on the menu, and came complementary for us, I don't know if they typically charge for dessert. One was some fresh cantaloupe with a special sweet sauce (they called it a palate cleanser), and one was an amazing rice pudding creme brûlée, it was an outstanding way to finish our evening. We will be back, next time we'll make it a double date!“
“The shrimp Po’Boys here are absolutely AMAZING! As well as the Jambalaya and tater salad. My wife and I just found this restaurant today and stopped in for a quick bite. We are both born and raised in New Orleans, so it’s always iffy when getting Louisiana foods in different states, but let me tell you WE WERE BLOWN AWAY at how amazing the food was! Actually we even think it’s better than a lot of places in the actual French quarter! The customer service is unmatched as well, the owner who is also from New Orleans was in and was so very kind, welcoming and really made us feel like family! Which is exactly what he said to us. It’s almost impossible to find anywhere that brings that kind of hospitality to the table, and this place is THE place to go for not only an amazing experience, but beautifully executed and flavorful food as well! Will be back again and again. Thank you Darrow’s New Orleans Grill!“
“The food at Brera makes your taste buds sing! I know it's corny, but it's true. Their green salad has this light dressing that is so refreshing. The prosciutto pizza was to die for. My boyfriend had the Papatelle and I had the Nettle Pasta with walnut. We walked out full with smiles in our face. To say the food was amazing is an understatement. It was outstanding!! Oh, and the drinks are strong and good!“
“We stopped by The Mermaid after dinner for a couple of drinks and had a pretty good time! It was super crowded but we were lucky to find a table to sit at. The place was pretty loud but the playlist was great and the atmosphere and crowd was friendly and a lot of fun.With a cute underwater/sea theme, their menu looks like it typically has a lot of rum based drinks but we had to get the special holiday drinks!Out of the specialty drinks we ordered the Sinterclaws, Seven Siren Swimming, Nauti or Nice, Carols of the Coral, A Merry Little "Coquito", and a Dementa Xmas "Shot." Almost all of the drinks were served in festive glassware like a snowman mug, so cute! My favorite drinks had to be Seven Sirens Swimming with the brown butter fat washed Chihuatan Indigo rum, and the "coquito" like a tiny coconutty eggnog.“
“Next door to the office and a good spot to grab a casual bite after work! Prices seem high, but the food is good and the portions are worth it. Service is always friendly, just make sure you order at the bar as they won't come to you. But, they will deliver the food once the order has been placed. And, free and easy parking!“
“This bar has all the right games at any given time. Great place! Football playoffs were showing on every TV outside of the bar. Another the end. One maybe two screens were dialed to NASCAR. For the most part, Our server was attentive and she would ask us how are doing. Her instinct The menu was substantial. I choose the dip if I remember correctly. Awesome sandwich. The nacho were LOADED with various meats and copious amounts of cheese. Worth checking out if are visiting Whittier.“
“I’m a dtla local and I would highly recommend the art room to anyone. Super chill and relaxed environment for creatives… or really just anyone. Mark and Rafael provided amazing customer service and took care of us the entire time. Drinks, food, atmosphere… everything was great. I they made a long term customer. Thank you!“

“Super cool space. The Alamo is more than a theater. It’s a freaking cinema museum in there. Seats were comf, food was delish. Had a Shirley temple and had a fab time. Most importantly, the folks working there were so nice and welcoming. Yay!“
“It's really hard for me to give a full 5 stars. Creative cocktails? Check. Imposing whisky collection? Check. Loud music blasting so hard you have to shout your order to the bartender and shout to the person in front of you? Check.I feel like it's a ton of wasted potential. Disregard my inner cocktail nerd wanting to talk about alcohol with the bartenders but it's even hard to talk to the person sitting next to you.I'll probably try again tomorrow and update my review afterwards.All of that said, the drinks are very good so try it even if you end up just drinking them in silence.“
“Litos Cork Room (LCR) is a hidden gem in East Los Angeles, especially for Green Bay Packers fans. The welcoming vibe and unique Packers fandom create an unforgettable experience for any football fan. Drinks are very reasonably priced and bar service is quick in this tiny little Cheesehead heaven. The owners (Junior and his wife) are amazingly welcoming and generous people. Litos feels like a mini-Lambeau in ELA.Highly recommend!?? ?? GoPackGo“

“Quaint, intimate setting for vegan offerings.Very much enjoyed the experience on a weekday night date with my ?.It began with the Dreamy Green & Strawberry Piña Colada smoothies. These were amazing; fresh wholesome ingredients that tasted phenomenal when combined like they did.It was followed by the freshly made Lavender Dusted Beer Bread & Creamy Spinach Artichoke Dip.Mains included, Crispy Chicken Sandwich & fries customized to Chili Cheese Fries. Fries were unforgettably good!Creamy Artichoke Spinach Pasta was so tasty & the consistency of the sauce was impressive for being vegan.Ended the night with the Affogato, that included their fresh vanilla ice cream & espresso.Being the Carnivore I am proud to be ? I was very satisfied with the textures, flavors & locally-sourced ingredients also impressed with the cleanliness, attentive service, peaceful surroundings.I am especially pleased with the late-night (11pm weekday) closing time!Keep up the great place! I highly recommend- even if you're not vegan ?Vegetarian options: ?% Vegan ?“
“I was in desperate need of a spot to post up and work for a while. Native Son came to mind and I couldn’t have chosen better. J could quickly sense my level of stress and set me up w a comfy spot w an outlet and wifi. He asked me what I liked for beer and his recs were spot on.Thanks for making a tricky afternoon a little brighter. I’ll be back and I hope others do too!“
“They don't serve food here, but you are welcome to bring your own food Inside. You are also welcome to smoke your vapes inside. Bathrooms are kept very clean along with the whole bar and booth areas. Karaoke nights are always a good time with good vibes and friendly people.Parking: More than enough parking.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair ramp about 20 ft. From entrance“
“Love this place! Came here the entire football season and it was such a great vibe for sports. They even have a cute patio area with TVs which I'll be taking advantage of A LOT this summer. Full bar and the food is tasty - great happy hour in general but they also have a great taco Tuesday and $10 pizza Wednesdays. Highly recommend! Shout out to Jordan and Kyla because they're always so kind and take good care of us. :)“
“I heard this place existed, but never went. However, when hanging out with some friends, they decided to go here, and I was pleasantly surprised it does not look very big as it is nestled in with a brewery, but the decor and atmosphere is absolutely gorgeous. It is super fun and vibrant, there are no waiters so you have to go order your drinks on your own, but the drinks are hands-down, original and amazing. They do not only serve truly there, but mixed drinks as well.“
“This place is very well maintained and clean and I received great customer service from Gio she was awesome and they have a great selection of draft beers and sangrias, the food was so amazing and the music they had was great too! highly recommend this place if you like Mediterranean cuisine or if you want to try something new, really beautiful atmosphere and I’m definitely going to come back here when im in the area.“

“We were up in the Long Beach area for the weekend and my husband wanted to watch UFC so he found this bar showing it at no charge! The place is big with lots of TVs, seating and games. It was a bit cluttered. Lots of stuff that were sitting in piles all over the place. It seems like it should be in a storage room but maybe they are short on storage. Other than that, it was fine. The staff was great. Like I said, it is a big place but we did not have a problem getting drinks or food. I ordered the pretzel bites and a Nathan's hot dog Chicago style. The dog was really yummy and filling. My husband ordered the quesadilla and he liked it. Said it was nice and spicy. If we are back in the area we will def return.“
“Great space with plenty of parking! Menu includes a few unique signature items. Ordered the Mason Latte. Very nice. The space is great with an modern upstairs seating space and a casual outdoor seating space. This place would be great in summer.“
“First time here, definitely won't be my last ! location stinks, but that's DTLA for you so let's move on lol. it gives speakeasy vibes which is my favorite! it's spacious , the live music is top tier , EXCELLENT customer service ! Andrew ! Victoria [maybe Christine lol], Reyna ! security , ALL AMAZING ! drinks, delicious. I even got gifted some of their signature "pineapple shots" for my birthday! chefs kiss ! games are $20 an hour which I think is kinda pricey lol, BUT pool, ping pong , darts , foozeball etc ! I was running around that whole place like a kid in the candy store lmao . my poor debit card lmaooo ! buttt anywhom, I'll be back, I love it here !!“
“Chill place for locals. Great drinks and good bartender staff. Look for Theo, Richie or Nina for the best drinks and great customer service. One of the last “local” spots in dtla that isn’t infested with tourists. Highly recommend for a chill night or meet up with friends.“
“It's so clean inside! Service is prompt friendly and detailed! We are on a carnivore diet and she accommodated us and made suggestions she was super friendly the food was the best we have had!!!!!!!!!!! We will be back even though we are from Texas!!!!“
