Diplomatico RumApril 13, 2013Checkout the great cocktails with Diplomático on the Menu: Club Cocktail and the Mai Tai, each with Reserva. Cheers!
Melinda JacksonJanuary 27, 2015Went on a Friday and it was packed but hard no problem grabbing a drink at the bar as the staff was on point. Great cocktails. Great live music.- Veronica ChaviraJuly 16, 2018Great bar to see live bands and try new cocktails. The mixologists are inventive with offering different liquors to the classic Moscow mule. Good whiskey selections!
Hillary NoelleApril 13, 2015Great live music. Bougie crowd though. The type of crowd that makes you feel underdressed, even when you're dressed perfectly fine. The cocktails are amazing
Florian LecoqApril 15, 2016We had such a great time here, good cocktails, good whiskey and really cool live music!
ErikApril 6, 2014This might be the best bar in Hollywood. If you are here and don't come here there is something wrong with you. Of course if you do come, Vivian will hate you. So, like, double win?
Brian AndresenAugust 18, 2014wish I found this place much sooner! Best bartenders in LA, along with awesome ambience, creates the perfect combination!
Thomas ColtonOctober 14, 2015Happy Hour from 5-8 and you can get an Old Fashioned for $6. Make sure to ask for the House version; it comes with chicory 🙏🏻
Rachel KOctober 15, 2017Very eclectic crowd. You have your typical Hollywood going out types, older country crowd in cowboy hats, super young just turned 21 college kids.
Amy YMarch 1, 2015One of my favorite drinking spots in LA. Incredible decorations! Go to the secret upstairs bar for bespoke drinks- Justina FrankSeptember 23, 2015Must visit if you are in Hollywood. Great atmosphere, live music and good cocktails. Come with friends !
LeighFebruary 18, 2014Great bar. seating in the little alcove is the best for noise reduction, and a reminder that there is no table service- just bar service
Rita MovsisyanAugust 19, 2014This place was great! Felt like i was in Disney's Haunted Mansion, which serves your favorite drinks!
Seriously one of the best bars in LA. The entire staff is amazing including the door men John and Art. Try the Pimms.
Larisa GrollemondFebruary 11, 2017Great cocktails in a cool environment, lots of seating for groups.
Annaliese NielsenSeptember 16, 2012Sassafras royale tastes like a partially melted milkshake in the best way ever and the perfect manhattan is truly perfect.- Annaliese NielsenSeptember 16, 2012GORGEOUS classic cocktail bar with handsome speedy bartenders and plenty of spots to sit and mingle.
Jackie JoyrideMarch 22, 2013If you live in LA (hell, if you happen to drive through LA) this place is a must for your bucket list
Kielward OrmingtonJanuary 26, 2015One of the bartenders tap dances. Get him to tap dance. You won't be disappointed.
Pete LittrellFebruary 8, 2014cocktails are good, but I go straight for the seasonal buck with vodka or gin every time.
Whitney LaderSeptember 13, 2012The Sassafras Royale is where it's at. It's like an adult root bear float!
Viviana TorrellasDecember 31, 2012i thought the bar was very cool, its a shamed they hired crazy ass bartenders with anger management problems, any decency at all!!
- Viviana TorrellasDecember 31, 2012this was to 4 girls! the manager failed to convinced us anything was to be done about the matter!
