Reservations
Lively underground live-music lounge with games, solid bar bites, and a $5 cover; great vibes, but expect bar-line ordering, loud sound, and occasional staff friction.
Restaurant Summary
Down a staircase marked by an old hotel sign, the room opens into a hidden lounge with live music and games. Sofas, pool tables, and a long bar set the tone for a fun DTLA night. One guest summed it up: "Stepped downstairs and it felt like a different city." However, there are some review authenticity concerns suggesting certain reviews may be solicited or influenced. The cooking leans toward comforting bar bites—nachos, double-patty burgers, tacos, and fried pickles. Drinks skew crowd-pleasing, with a few premixed signatures some found sweet. Order at the bar, take a number, and they run food out—smooth early, slower when packed. Ideal if you want music-first energy with casual snack plates rather than a full dinner. Families should note the nightclub-style vibe, $5 cover on many nights, and loud bands. The menu has kid-friendly items like burgers, fries, and quesadillas, but noise levels and late-night timing make it better for teens than younger kids.
