Got in line before they required an entrance fee at 10:25pm. The bouncers in the front purposely waited until 10:30 to let us in so they could charge. It also wasn't busy inside. Used to love this place too.

We had breakfast after the Rose Parade. We had the usual french toast and pancakes.Surprisingly both were delicious.Our waitress was excellent,but so over worked,typical of the recent economy.

Good fun atmosphere

Had the Mediterranean Steak Salad - so delicious!!! Make sure to use the sauce that comes with and squeeze the lime - it was the perfect meal I needed. Meat, fresh, tastyService very friendly and there ended up being live music.Drinks also yummy! Had the Granada

We stopped here late night on a whim while vacationing in the area. It was one of the highlights of our trip! We got small plates and drinks, it was so tasty and a great experience. If I ever find myself back in the area, I'll definitely need to come back!!

I had my bday party here and my husband got us bottle service and let me tell you there service sucks!!! Not once did they come back to check in on us the security had to bring us more ice!!! Also please triple check your bill they try to sneak another tip/gratuity on the when it already comes included please be aware I’m glad my husband caught it on time and when he questioned it the stupid waitress couldn’t answer him I wonder why!!!

Great Dj

Staff is amazing. The vibe is great, food is yummy. Really enjoy their 2 for 1 on drinks

I like the vibe here but not sort of place. Great if you want to got dancing though

There are 3 servers, 1 bartender, and a host. The place is empty. They moved from their old location ("Bar Celona") and was directed here according to the address on the old place.Unfortunately, the paella (Valenciana) wasn't good. The rice was instant rice (I'm a chef) and the whole dish was under seasoned and was oily as hell. Had to drain it on one of my plates. I don't mind oil/fats, but it shouldn't be almost a soup.Regarding how slow amd ovwr staffed they were, I tried to get my server's attention because I needed more drinks, but I went and got it myself from the bartender (I might as well sat at the bar).I still tipped the guy 15% (I calculated it) since I'm also in the same business but it was not deserved.Will not come back to this place EVER again, in this is fixed otherwise.Such a disappointment. Please contact me.
