It was such a great night, indeed! My friends and I really had a blast last night in this club, and it was nice because the drinks are really good and the crowd was amazing too. Also, the staffs were totally outstanding because they were able to attend to all of our requests effectively. Beautifully done, guys! Thank you so much!
Honestly, this bar was a very good place to hang out. The staffs were very accommodating, nice, and easygoing. Also, the drinks and the foods out there were good and affordable. The place was big, very comfortable to dance and drink, and nice. Eventually, I had a very good experience with their bar. It was memorable!
Good small spot where happy hour means chill out and enjoy non-tourist hollywood! The food is good and on the drinks are good. However, the special drinks are fitted with a bit of poor mans liquor. Sooo, if you wanna make us and the hour happier, dont give us the CVS brand stuff! At any rate, the bartenders are very helpful though, so dont be ashamed to ask questions!
Went here for the first time NYE and was amazed at the ambiance and quality of people who attended. The staff from the bouncers to the bartenders were all amazing. I had forgotten to get a stamp prior to going outside for a bit and the staff was nice enough to let me in and to kindly explain to get one prior to exiting again. The people here were dressed to impress and the owner who I remembered from years past was very kind and welcoming. Highly recommend if youre into classy fun with huge two story lounge with plenty of room to walk around and mingle. Finally somewhere classy to go to in the Bay Area.
I went to The Mandrake because it was a good halfway point for meeting a friend on the west side. The bar was perfect for mid-week drinks, reasonably priced well drinks, ample seating, and not too loud. Perfect dive bar feel. The bartender was friendly and attentive and parking was easy.
Great atmosphere, the owner is a sweetheart and definitely makes you feel very welcome. A great place to hang out, enjoy a good glass of wine and chit chat. Everyone is very friendly. The place doesnt serve food but you can bring your own food and there many local restaurants near by. This is definitely a great place to try
The finest service by the bartender named John extremely kInd and his drinks are amazing. Made this bar a safe space for me and my friends which is greatly appreciated. We will definitely be returning!
New ownership and a new feel. Great prices, great service, clean bathrooms and a neon welcome to the jungle sign! Nothing else like it in the Montrose/La Canada area. Great for an early business drink or a night out with friends. Service was great and the new owners were personally greeting the customers. If you are in the area, its a great place to check out.
Great place to chill, get away, eat some good food. Ive had nothing but enjoyable experiences here and plan to keep visiting. Prices were fair for the quality of the food. I see why this place has a lot of positive reviews.
Cool place! Shared a bowl with two other people though it tasted more sugary than alcoholic-y. We sat upstairs to play some games and had a good view of the entire bar. Love the decor and lights hanging up. It wasnt too busy here so it was a good place to hang out, and Id definitely come back to check out their happy hour deals.
Definitely worth a stop. Its a great place to begin the night if youre in the bar hopping mood. It gets packed, but thats part of why you go bar hopping..right? The bartenders do a good job and the patrons are a good mix of locals and tourists. Have a drink and talk to the folks in the bar.
Super delicious. Ill return with my coworkers. Prices were appropriate. I see why this place has a lot of good reviews.
The Reserve Cocktail Club - I had the chance to attend the grand opening of this venue. I enjoyed it even though Im not the typical avid club goer. The place seems alright enough and good use of the subterranean space. I like the vaults and general old banky theme.
Be prepared to wait for parking and a table on weekends. Generous portions of food for the price. Definitely too salty for my taste. Not very attentive table service or cleanliness.
Should be a historical landmark... one of the oldest Tiki joints in LA and definitely the coolest. The bartenders are masters of the craft and make any drink on the extensive menu from memory. No weak pours and always friendly. The decor is campy and kitschy, as it should be, and it makes you feel like youre on a movie set or stepped out of a time machine. The only drawback is it is TINY so if youre going with a big group its not ideal and even if youre with a date youll be waiting for a spot at the bar or a table so youd better like drinking standing up. Definitely one the best LA bars and it never gets old and has outlived all the trends.
Best food for ur buck! Bombest creamy chicken enchiladas Ive ever had. Drinks are strong and cheap. Only reason I gave 4 stars is because of the parking. The parking sucks and you always have to wait for a spot. Other than parking the food is delicious and the servings are huge.
Great food. Cramped space. Unless youre sitting on the patio in the back of the restaurant, youll be feeling someone breathing down your neck as you scarf down the delicacies they serve you.
We used to love coming here, way back in the day when they had the more sit down restaurant on Mission (we still liked that one more... it just had great atmosphere/ambience)...
I been coming to Salsa and Beer for years and I have never been disappointed. The wait can be long, but if its only two people you can try to get a place at the bar. The food is amazing and the portions are large. The one thing that keeps me coming back above all is the costumer service.
This place is super cool. The decor is really nice, its made to look like you are outdoors and they have a fountain in the middle of the restaurant/bar area. The food was really good too
Oh no, I saw the worst thing I could have seen. There were cockroaches in the second part of the restaurant meaning Im sure its in the kitchen too. And then when I passed by there were pest control spraying all over the the restaurant. Gross. I have retired from this place. Yuck.
Hi there! I am so glad that the dive McKenzies got replaced with this more upscale bar, but I was slightly disappointed in the cocktails. I only tried two but they were not quite as good as they could be. I just hope that this place can improve, I realize that they just opened. I will go back to check it out again soon to give it another try. Also, one more thing, the drinks are named after neighborhoods in SF, however they left out the Richmond (which is where the bar is). Not a deal breaker but hey whats up?
If youve lived in SF long enough, hopefully you know this is THE place for trivia within the citys limits. Its like the Michigan Stadium of Irish bars as they seem to pack 100,000 enthusiasts in there every Tuesday night without overwhelming you. Its quite remarkable.
Found this place on YELP and we were very impressed. If youre in Korea Town, I would highly recommend this restaurant
Meeting friends for drinks on a Friday evening here was exactly was I was hoping for. A lively spot that wasnt too crowded where we could find seats and hear each other. The bartender who made our drinks was friendly and the cocktails were tasty and intriguing.
My husband and I ate here while vacationing in LA and we cant wait to go back! The octopus was exquisite and the cocktails were original and delicious!
Shereen and Shannan were absolutely amazing! Hands down best service thus far. Promptness with a smile is all you can ask for when you are getting bottomless mimosas! Will be back most definitely.
Great place for sushi can here with a friendAlways good to try different sushi spot always lookin for the next great spot lets explore
Brandon and meesha are the best. Every time I come here and they are working everything is perfect. Great vibes because of them!!!
Always professional and knows his craft. He recommended a cocktail for my best friend after asking what she liked and made it and she really liked it.
This is my favorite bar in The Richmond. Best cocktails that arent just straight sugar. Friendly staff.Mackenzie is the best bartender.
We ordered delivery through DoorDash the other weekend, and the food we got was lit. I gotta give it up for who ever chef made our food, because every item we got was on point!
Very good bar with excellent gin drinks. Great service. Great venue with outdoor seating. Wonderful music.
So we came here for a bday party this past weekend and was pretty satisfied with the experience. Got there ahead of the group and it was a little empty for Friday night, but it was early. It did get packed as the night progressed. Our table was reserved form our group and we had about 15 people. I can say from the outside and location i thought I was in for a not good surprise. As this spot is located in a small strip mall, but it was a good surprise inside. The inside is cozy, but the way the lounge is arranged its bigger then it appears. Plenty of room dancing as the DJ spins all night long.
Love this place! It has such a good vibe and excellent selection of drinks. The bartender T was knowledgeable and any drink he recommended I had :)The bartender was energetic and friendly. The location is right by the Americana. This place was very clean, has lots of sitting space and good music. Music isnt too loud perfect if your having a conversation :)
I was pleasantly surprised to see the new changes here. The stage is great, with good lighting (meaning musicians can get good action shots). The bar itself is limited, but the selection is good quality and affordable. The best part of this place are the bartenders. JD and Austin really know how to make a girl feel welcome -- a big plus in the LA area.While this may be a distance for anyone from LA Proper, or even some parts of the SFV, if you are within a 20 minute driving distance, I highly recommend making this one of your watering holes.
Came here with some friends. Its a good vibe! Looks totally dead when you arrive kinda early, and then all of a sudden its wall to wall! Good drinks... theres a few sections available for bottle service and larger groups. I love the decor... Its definitely not your typical bougie night club scene.
One of my favorite bars!Its right around the corner from me & so happy about it.I came this past weekend with one of my friends for my birthday and had a blast! I met the owner, Alex, who was amazing and offered me a drink & shot on the house since it was my special day. We chatted the night up and had a great time.
This place is wonderful! Gustavo and Scott were mindblowing. From the very beginning to the end I felt so welcomed. Since this was the first time I kept asking them to advise me what to order and I got a wonderful description of everything. The atmosphere is extremely calm and inviting. They are approaching you every 5/10 minutes to check if you need something. This place is great if you want to enjoy a calm evening and be able to talk. 10 stars from me
Good friendly... Good vibe bar..... Daisy the Bartender is the best one to serve you quickly and very friendly and positive joyful person.. You can also order your food from the truck.. They deliver inside the bar and you can eat your food. . So get your drink on...oh and on Monday Karaoke .. Daisy is the host... Shes a awesome person.
Great ambience, we went right when they opened opened for a quick drink. I told the bartender what kind of whiskey i liked and he said hed make me something. Turned out pretty damn good. Great place to hang with friends, grab a drink, play some games and have a good time.
I was expecting a lot more from this place. Nothing particularly Irish about it except the name. I was hoping for a good selection of Irish beer or whiskey, a beautifully crafted wood bar, some music that involved bagpipes, maybe even some Irish food, the things that one thinks of when Irish Pub is advertised.This bar isnt much different than the rest in the area. The remodel was well done. Everything was nice and clean. The staff was very nice and prices were reasonable, I just wish this place was a little more themed.
Cute bar, came on a Saturday at around 9-10pm. Its fairly small & gets really packed towards the end of the night. But i loved it! the Gin and Juice drink was pretty good & the music was like 2000s or something, definitely a lot of fun and dancing. Going back again soon!
Phenomenal! Chef Shoemaker amazed us with his savory, flavorful dishes. The presentation was lovely. The cocktails were heavenly especially the old fashioned. Rob C. treated us like family and the staff was extremely professional, courteous and generous with their time and efforts. We enjoyed the delectable duck, the tender octopus, scallops, mussels...everything was wonderful and cooked to perfection.
I cant believe I havent written a review for this place. It. Is. Righteous.A great staple for me of Silverlake. You almost have to end a night here for it to feel right. Later on in the night is when it usually starts to get hoppin and that is the time when it starts to get really poppin. Ugh. Lets forget I used that word and use fun instead.
Omg had so much fun!! Love the songs they were playing on both sides .. the only thing I didnt like was the long took so long . We were in the front line and our wait was probably 40 mins just to go. My feet was killing me. I just turn 21 and just wanted to have fun. But I still had fun it was very tu in there! Lol for sure Im coming back!
Came here for a birthday party! Small, clean bar with great music and vibes. It got a bit crowded given the size of the venue, but all in all a great spot to grab a drink. Surprisingly enough its in a strip mall, but once youre inside you forget youre next to a Starbucks. Definitely recommend.
Not a bad dive bar . I had some real fun in there. Reminded me of the spots we used to party at when I was younger. Liked the back patio view of the skyline. They DJ opened up with some Nu Disco funky vibes that was awesome, but later on they played some main stream junk thats my only beef with them. Small & cozy spot, it need a bit of updating thats it !.
Ah bootie. Something to experience at least once during the time you live in CA. Get to bootie before 10PM, then go across the street to butter for jello shots or your drink of choice, before getting back across the street an hour later.
Service is always great and attentive so Id like to return. Our first time we sat at bar and I was blown away so they were set at a high standard. I would definitely recommend for the experience as it is a well known spot.
Barbarossa is such a cool place! Eduardo was super cool and made awesome drinks!!!Great place to go
Love this place! I feel that it is a great restaurant and whenever I want good Spanish food and the best Paella in town I will always come here. The only reason it does not get 5 stars is because of some of the service of the people that serve the paella. Overall it is a great restaurant. If you have a chance to swing by you should, you will not be disappointed with the quality!
I enjoyed the vibe of this bar. I liked how it had semi quiet patio you can go sit down and have a conversation at. The music was a nice change from the usual hip hop and rap found at other bars. The only reason I give this bar 4 stars was because it took a while for the gentleman to serve us a drink. But other than that a pleasent first experience.
This place has a great interior design but the noise level is insane. I have been there twice and both times I left after 15 minutes. Its extremely loud and impossible to hear each other. However, if you are a fan of loud noises then you can check this place out. Have fun.
Loved the vibe of this place! It was very chill. Loved that there were comfortable seats besides the large bar area. They have a large variety of drinks and staff are cool! Definitely recommend for date night!
Great Tasting Room (not wine bar) located in the heart of downtown Burbank with a cool eclectic vibe and unique interior. The Pinot Noir is AMAZING and the rest of the wines are equally top tier. The Urban Press is a great oasis in the sea of sports bars that are drowning out the Burbank scene. Its also a bonus if the owner Giovanni is on site because he will enhance the experience with his great Italian charm. Also ask for Simon if you want to get the 411 on this great Burbank gem.
Its rare I feel a place deserves 4 stars. This place does. It has an authentic speakeasy vibe, delicious drinks,and chill jazz music. Will definitely be returning soon.
First of all long lines.. second they have the rudest unprofessional bartender ... This guy got aggravated because we were ordering we explained to him that we had a big orderthen he began shouting at us and started claiming that he shouldnt even be serving that he was trying to be nice to another bartender by helping then took our drinks from us.... Then proceeded by calling security and then started waving ... What kind of service is that ? ..
Says it’s opened, drove 1 hour just to find the doors shut closed. Horrible experience.
Beautiful atmosphere. Very tasteful. Kent was a gentleman and a wonderful host. Just the classy lil hole in the wall we were looking for. Well be back!
Antonio the bar tender only serves who he wants to and makes other people wait even if they got there first. It seems like he cant multitask. The line is so long to get in, drinks are overpriced. I do not recommend. Not worth the wait. Theres other places in the area that play better music and bartenders are more attentive.
Great lounge! friendly staff, great atmosphere, pretty ppl, whats not to love!
This place is always a blast! One of the best tiki bars in Los Angeles. The atmosphere is spot on and the drinks are delicious. They do not have food, but you can order Grub Hub delivered here and theyre ok with it. Little Tonys pizza is a block down and their pizza is amazing! I usually order from there over the phone, have a few more sips, then go pick it up. As long as you have a table youre all set. ;)
Hipster kinds of people love this bar. The dance floor is tiny. Very few attractive ladies.
What a great little bar with a multitude of awesome craft beers, including Epic Brewing and more. They have multiple things to do, including a karaoke night. Its got alot of tvs as well as great ambiance. The bar is right across the street from the Americana. Go check this place out next time your in Glendale
Little known fact about the Tiki-Ti is that Ray, the now-departed owner, was the inspiration for Yoda. George Lucas, when he was planning the original Star Wars, used to hang out in the bar and sketch concepts. Ray, a small, older Filipino was what Lucas based Yoda on.
The best bar / dancing spot in dtla. If u loved bar 107, come here. Cool patio to smoke and drink in peace w/ a cool dance floor to cut up the rug.
I like the outside patio but to be honest when you guys make shows there’s a guy who’s always talking over the music it sucks
Great location but spent $60 (not including tip) on two don julio shots, one lagunitas 16oz beer, and a 5 dollar cover each. which we herd goes up to 10 dollars each after 10pm. All this on a Sunday night in a dive bar atmosphere.
Great place for cheap drinks and super vibrant vibes. Usually plays Spanish music. It looks great and is super fun. There is a in doors and outdoors so you have a choice.
Its a very chill no judgmental place music is different threw out the week . Me and my husband like to go on reggae night which is friday. Casual wear but i like to dress up so i go all out. I didnt get the beautiful bartender name but she was making our night fun . Dont forget to tip the bartender !!!! Support your local spots they make our community
Came on a Wednesday they have specials on their wines, I enjoyed some red wine nice place to hang out with friends, its small and it gets really busy.
La Cita is one of the best bars in the entirety of Los Angeles. I love going there, because all the bartenders make you feel like you are extremely welcome and right at home. The other great thing about La Cita is that they have the most amazing drinks. Try the michelada if you want to have one of the best drinks in the city. One of the other great things about La Cita is that they play the best music. If you love to dance to Latin music oh, you are in the right place. Almost every single night of the week will be a great time. 100% recommended.
I love to come to the institution and relax! This place is perfect for this! Delicious drinks, good food. Good music, great staff! You will not regret if you spend your evening in this place! A lot of places like people! I highly recommend spending your leisure time here!
Love this place . I always bring my out of town friends. Angie is the best bartender. She always make the perfect micheladas. Patio is perfect for those summer days .
Came to this plaza for some Creamistry ice cream and walked into this bar. Theres a Korean bar in the same plaza, but they only serve soju and beer. This place has a full bar with some great, unique elixirs mixed with ginseng, prunes, garlic and other healthy roots (hence the name Potions & Poisons ).
Love la cita, i always have a great time here, you cam chill in the back or go inside and dance if you want...
Love this place, small intimate with great music. Guaranteed to have a good time.
It was cool and the music wasnt half bad but for a traditional latin place they couldve made it better by playing a little merengue, some salsa or even a little punta and bachata
Great place to unwind after a long week, atmosphere is amazing. Great music, great drinks, lots of rum
Super chill and fun place to grab some beers. The back patio is really pretty with a lot of lights and the inside dance floor starts getting busy after 11 p.m.
I can say this place does it for me. It has a good feel to it. This place has great reviews for a reason.
This location is quite cool! Good tune, stiff reasonably-priced beverages. Always an excellent time the bartenders are terrific relax.
Gotta stop by and see for yourself friendly service and great drinks perfect for your neighborhood bar
If you are looking for a nice night to hang out with your girls. This is the spot! The drinks are great and the music is awesome. Always end up with a great night!
I dont even drink but this place offers all the soda with lime you can drink and plays great music. Never thought Id hear the Misfits, Fear, and Grace Jones all played within the same hour.
Very old school LA spot, good atmosphere, great music, drinks arent too expensive. Great for dancing without the douchey club vibe. Every night has a different theme. Cumbia nights on Thursdays, Punky Reggae on Fridays...
Forgot the last time Ive been here but it was fun.
Great music and dancing soon to come again!
