Space is great. Stick to beer and wine. Do not order cocktails, just don’t.

This bar has some of the best drinks and atmosphere in all of Los Angeles. Service was top notch as the bartenders and managers went above and beyond. This will always be my go to bar in the are and I cannot recommend it enough for great drinks, music, vibes, and people.

Staff was rude and they over charged me and my friends. I had one drink and they charged us all $50 EACH! now I have to call my bank. Thanx. Lame place lame location. Gentrification at its finest.This $50 charge is the only one I have ever experienced in LA. Or any bar. Check the reviews before you go.

I walked in yesterday and was ignored by the bartender( male curly black hair, tall, in his mid 20’s) for 30 minutes so I left, I came back to use the restroom and he gave me the dirtiest look ever.. I think they are a bit racist against brown people..I look super indigenous btw, I noticed the bartender rushed to help out the white males as soon as they walked in.. so sad… that is in my Hood and use to be one of my favorite bars.. I agree Bar Flores or any of the other bars in the area, don’t have this issue.. from my experience.,

why does this place have 3 stars??? i came here at 5:30pm on a friday after putting my name down at quarter sheets (guilty as charged). the vibe is breezy, bright, indoor-outdoor. they had a LAMBRUSCO on the menu which is how you know they know. (side note, join my campaign for more US bars to offer bubbly reds, far superior to the bubby white). the bartenders were so kind and gave us nice big pours. lots of groups of girls in the other patrons. it was the start of a perfect friday.

assaulted by security guard for not showing “respect,” absolutely nothing done by management. also took 20 minutes to get a shot.

Nice ambiance! What was lacking was the poor service provided to us. The biggest problem were the drinks....watered down and expensive. After 2 rounds we had to leave.

This is a great neighborhood spot. There's something for everyone and the crowd is very diverse and welcoming. It's really wonderful if you're able to get one of the booths and the seating is extremely comfortable. On a nice day it's open and airy and a great place to watch the sunset. During busy hours it gets extremely crowded so seats are coveted.
Had a great night out this past Friday, our bartender made a delicious Hot Toddy for me since it was a cold night out, she was really cool to chat with and served with a smile. The music was excellent and the crowd was a diverse crowd of cool people just having a good time. Plenty of bar seating and a decent sized dance floor, a pool table and a great time. My girlfriend and I met some really great people and had a great time just vibing and listening to good music. No one brought drama, everyone was friendly and just looking to have a good time. Highly recommend for a fun night out or a fun date night. I'll definitely be stopping by again soon.

Renovations like this is why Silverlake and Echo Park suck now. No character. Just the usual tasteless pretentious overpriced bullshit you see popping up everywhere to cater to rich, bland, boring tourists. I used to love this spot and had many great nights dancing here on their different music nights. Drinks were cheap, which made you spend more, which also made you want to come back all the time and bring everyone you knew here. Not anymore. RIP Little Joy.

I have been here on three different occasions. Busy, empty, and mildly busy. All three times were similar in the fact that they were all disappointingly normal. Prices were pretty cheap but in this case you get what you pay for. The aesthetic does have potential to be something great, but it's missing a bit of personality. Service was very poor. I spent 10 minutes the first time trying to get someone to notice me in an almost empty bar. It's as if the bartenders would rather be elsewhere. The customer service connection with guests is not there, and with other incredible, more personal spots down the block, it's safe to say Little Joy does not stand out.
