A very diverse audience, both old and young, as they say. The good old music of different times and styles is playing, I noticed that everyone takes their branded tincture, I also liked it. But in fact, it is strange that the institution in the center and resembles a tavern from the zero, I had one in the area. The most inconvenient thing is the wardrobe, in order to get to which you need to go through the whole institution, and there it is crowded and those who come and go go through the dance floor, such nonsense to be honest. In general, such a place.
Rock and Reilly's is a USC staple. It's a great pub with nice decor, and I've frequented this place for many social events. When a couple of USC students and I appeared on TV for the Capital One College Bowl, the pub showed the show. Trivia nights are back every Tuesday 6-7 PM and I loved Play Trivia LA's nights my freshman year.Food wise, while the menu has several vegan and vegetarian options, they need work. The burgers are average. The mac and cheese and truffle fries are to die for, but the menu has declined in quality from a few years ago. The pub's signature Irish Nachos have now been replaced with a mediocre standard Mexican version. They could do with some more pizza flavors. I also think that as an Irish pub they should introduce more Irish dishes like colcannon, chips and curry, soda bread etc.
Great place to dine. It's a bar and restaurant. Its cozy and the atmosphere is pleasant.The employees always dress sexy, high stockings and form fitting shirts, please tip them it's hard to make money as food server, they try to give you a great experience with their great attitudes and with their aesthetically pleasing uniforms.The food is different enough that it's interesting to try everything at some point. Their bar is full of all types of drinks. Even the bathroom is interesting. They do private parties. Have appropriate decorations. And the manager is one of the most eye catching ladies you'll see. I got to know her for a while and you'll be hard pressed to find a sweeter more understandable person out there.Try the nachos and spicy chicken burger, yum.
Well, it is a little bit of a bummer that they're still using the online ordering inside the restaurant for two reasons. One, you can't start a tab and order drinks, appetizers, then food at separate times without multiple transactions on your card. Two, NOBODY comes to your table for service (besides delivering the food or drinks) You have to approach staff to ask questions about the menu or drinks or even for a to go box. No one busses the tables while you're sitting there. The most friendly person working we had interaction with was the security guard.Otherwise, the theme of the restaurant is cute. Limited menu, food wasn't bad and it's the quality of drinks you would expect from a bar and grill in a college campus area. The first half of the music during my visit was great. At some point it was lost or quiet - like a playlist had ended but no one came to the rescue.Overall, I would try it again, but much further down the line.
Me and wife decide to stop by for dinner, and let me tell you, THIS PLACE is underrated as far as the burgers go. They are delicious ?! Highly recommend this place if you are from a different state. Our bartender was Tim and he makes the best cosmopolitan ? the americana burger was 10/10!!!
My husband and I (both Asian Americans) experienced our first racial discrimination treatment at this restaurant for the first time since we moved to the US 29 years ago (20 in LA). Yesterday (2/26), we arrived too early for our concert at the nearby Shrine Auditorium and decided to have a drink. Rock & Reiley’s in the USC Village seemed like a good choice with a proper bar and not too crowded, so we lined up after 4 people. The guy at the outdoor gate checked the phones of the people before us (presumably showing vaccination records) and let them in. Then he immediately turned his back on us. (He definitely saw us when he waved the people in.) I waited about 10 secs, pulled up my vaccination record, walked up, showed him my digital vaccination record, and said “Excuse me, sir. There are two of us.” He looked at me and said there was a wait. I asked how long the wait would be, and he said 10 minutes (without looking around at all) and turned away again. I told my husband that we should go because we didn’t have that much time to wait, but he hesitated because the Chinese Restaurant we just dined at didn’t serve alcohol and he really wanted a drink before the concert. So I called out to the guy again and said that we were going to the concert and didn’t have much time. I asked him whether there really was a 10-min wait because the bar inside didn’t seem that busy and there were a few empty outdoor tables in the patio. He again said yes without a beat and turned away again. By now, I was angry because his attitude was rude and beyond obvious. He could have fed me something like we have space limitation due to Covid, or the wait is hard to predict, or you can get in as soon as 2 people leave, etc. But no, his attitude said “go away” loud and clear! There were a 2-3 others lined up behind us at this time, so my husband and I left. As we waited at the crosswalk (about 50 feet away) for the light, I turned back and was surprised to see no more line there. (They didn’t leave because I’d have seen the guy in a very obvious checker jacket behind us nearby.) Even worse, 2 middle-aged white guys walked up right while I was watching and the guy let them in with a quick peek at the phone. And then he did the same with another white guy shortly after. This all happened within the few minutes we were waiting for the light to change! My husband and I were shocked and in disbelief. I thought of walking back to confront him, but decided not to bother. He clearly doesn’t want our business, then why would I want to give him business? I am glad that we didn’t, because we ended up avoiding a long line to get into Shrine Auditorium and had three nice and relaxing drinks in a beautiful setting before the concert. Nevertheless, I want to write a review to let other Asians or Asian Americans know of our treatment there. USC is one of the most diverse communities in LA, and I’d expect a business serving that community to do better with I&D not worse.
way too expensive, very bad service and the food was not good there
Ordered their parmesan fries. Also got their high noon grapefruit flavored. You order through the app. Waiters never came back to check on table, just a small fyi. Place seems more like a takeout place in my opinion ?♀️.Their fries were so underwhelming. Wasn't even crispy. 100000/10 would NOT recommend.They have a happy hour and their high noon was $6.
Nice place. Unfortunately their online ordering was down and kinda a nightmare to get answer from staff. Had to sit at the bar. Bartender was a little green. He also didn't have a service bartender which made order times long. Also food came out sluggishly. I think it was one fo those days will go back for sure.
Service is not good. Drink orders were slow to come out, even on what was definitely a slow afternoon. Food is subpar and overpriced. Half the menu items showed unavailable on the menu as well, so there weren't many options. Definitely feels like another cash grab setting up next to the university.
