Love this place, still the same vibes as before when they first opened. The drinks are kinda pricy, for 15$ I wish the sangria was a bigger size. But love it here, always good vibes. Tip, either come early, around 10 to avoid the line, or Sun through Thursday.

This place never disappoints. I got Jamba’s Juice this time around & outside of missing the fruit, it was delicious.My partner & I both got pooped on by birds while we were sitting outside, but I guess that’s more natures problem than the establishments. Maybe they can put something over the seats to make sure it doesn’t happen though? I don’t know.All in all, I always love this place.

What an amazing place! Drunks were good, people were good, ambiance was excellent. It was perfect!!!

I love 70s music so that's mainly why I love this place. But I also love the look of it. Feels like you're hanging out at someone's retro house. But of course, if you come here peak times on Friday or Saturday night, be ready to wait for at the very least 30 min.

Cool vibes and aesthetic. Drinks are consistent and tasty but nothing any other bar in the same range can’t do. You go for the experience. Definitely recommend going in off hours so you can take in the setting and seating

really cool bar atmosphere. Crowd is mostly late 20s/ 30s. They make great cocktails and have 2 or 3 beers on tap and 6 bottle options. They also serve food. Went on a Friday night and dj situation was fun. People were dancing. Get there at 9 latest 930 or wait in line after. Patio is outstanding.

Things to know if you go early: the ambience isn't quite as swanky but it is still sophisticated and inviting. As always, I didn't want to leave even though the lights were a little brighter, the clientele was more casual, and no wine reps were on the floor to pour and talk about their wineries and wines (they show up at 5). You could still order light bites, glasses, and flights from Ray who was manning the main wine bar. I had a wonderful glass of Miner Family's Pinot Noir ($20) and my friends had a Chardonnay flight ($18) and truffles ($?). All were top notch. We bought a bottle to go but like I said, we are already planning our trip back!

Honestly a great spot for vibey music and dancing. Outdoor area is best for talking. Not covid safe though, very packed. Also huge line, so get there early.

Love Daveys! Have celebrated my bday here but love their drinks and music

Truly my favorite bar in LA. Can’t beat the atmosphere. Took some friends who were visiting from out of state here this past weekend and they loved it. Thanks to the guys bartending outside for the best service too! Will be back.
