Apparently, this place has been around for years?! How have I not been here before?!…read more Well, I'm glad I finally came by. The vibe is fun, grown, classy, and romantic. It's rather intimate, and much smaller on the inside than I expected. We sat at the bar, on the opposite end from the live band, but we could still hear the music just fine. The place settings, the decor, dimmed lights, and the seats are all quite appealing and quaint. The two standouts from our meal: the Yellowtail Crudo (with a provocative pink sauce) and the Pork Belly Risotto (immaculate - every single bite hit perfectly). The outside is subtle - you may miss Verse if you're not looking for it. There is some seating outside on the sidewalk where you can order drinks before you're seated. Honestly, I didn't notice any "stars" when I came by, but I likely don't know who to look for or what celebrities look like "in the wild." Street parking is readily available up and down the street, but they also offer valet.

This is hands down my favorite local tiki bar!…read more The vibes, the drinks, and the people make it unbeatable. Their piña colada is easily the best I've ever had. Perfectly creamy, balanced, and dangerously drinkable. One sip and you're instantly on vacation. The manager Erin is an absolute gem. She's the sweetest, has the best sense of humor, and makes everyone feel welcome the moment they walk in. You can tell she genuinely cares about creating a great experience. Also, shoutout to Topher, a truly awesome bartender! If you're looking for a spot with killer cocktails, tropical vibes, and top-tier service, this place is a must. Can't recommend it enough. TIP: they teamed up w/Pitfire Pizza so u can actually get pizza delivered to you via QR code available on each of the tables.

Tiki No has a surprisingly fun ambiance, especially for the area. It is definitely not something…read moreyou expect to stumble across, which makes the atmosphere a nice surprise when you walk in. The drinks are okay. They lean on the sweeter side, so it is the kind of place where you might stop in for a sugary cocktail rather than something particularly memorable. Overall it is a decent place to meet up with friends for a quick snack and a drink, but it is probably not somewhere I would go out of my way to make the main destination for the night. Still a nice little spot if you happen to be nearby and want a casual place to hang out for a bit.

This was honestly one of the worst brunch experiences I've had. I drove an hour and a half to come…read morehere and left extremely disappointed. None of my friends enjoyed their food--the dishes were underwhelming and absolutely not worth the money. The service was also horrible, which only made the experience more frustrating. I ordered the French onion soup and it was terrible--dry, soggy bread with barely any cheese and hardly any broth. I also had a flatbread pizza, and honestly, I've had better pizza at Papa John's. None of the food was desirable, and no one at our table even finished their meal. I've never felt like I wasted money at a restaurant the way I did here. The only positive thing I can say is that the restaurant itself is cute and has decent ambience, but that's about it. I wouldn't come back or recommend spending your money here.

Obsessed. This was the kind of holiday bar experience that's actually FUN, not just "pay $20 to…read morestand in a crowd and take pics." The show was hilarious, the bingo was chaotic in the best way, and the Krampus Naughty Confessions segment had me fully crying laughing. It felt interactive and lively without being overwhelming, and the whole place had this playful, festive energy that makes you want to stay awhile. Also... the DRINKS. Legit some of the best holiday cocktails I've had this season not just cute, but actually delicious. I was genuinely impressed. I came for the holiday event, but I'm leaving thinking: I want to come back on a regular night. This place has that "new favorite spot" potential. Would 100% return and bring friends.

Fast forward, I live down the road now. Didn't remember the name or place. But my partner and I wanted to attend the "Krampus Cove"event. Which we had done at another location two years ago. We were stoked that it was at a new spot, and so close! We went on a Sunday afternoon. So it wasn't packed. Had a booth to ourselves. The decor inside was amazing. And the show was hysterical and fun. The actors are so great. Now as far as the bar goes - we plan to go back during normal operating hours and times (hopefully soon). And I can comment more. But I will say I'm excited to go back because the cocktails are super delicious, AND they have daily happy hour (5-8pm if I'm not mistaken). Huge plus. The only negatives are the parking. Very little parking lot so that could be tough on a busy day. And the service was mid. There was one friendly bartender, and another one that just may have been having a rough day. But I didn't feel really welcomed or attended to. Rest of the staff was great!

Definitely make a reservation, weekdays are chill, but weekends get busy in the best way. The ambience is what really makes it stand out. It genuinely feels like you've stepped into Tulum the dim lighting, earthy tones, and that effortlessly elevated vibe that makes you want to stay all night. The food is solid (seriously, order the pasta), and getting there isn't a hassle with both valet and street parking options. I do wish they had something going on earlier in the week though, because a Monday night here is underrated and deserves more hype. Drinks are a highlight too. My go-to is the "Divorce Papers"--just trust me on that one. And the service? That's where they really separate themselves. Narek runs the place in a way you don't see often always present, always aware, making sure everything flows smoothly without missing a beat. It creates an experience that feels taken care of without being over the top. Overall, it's a true go-to right now. Great crowd, great music, and an atmosphere that keeps you coming back. Easily one of the best spots on Ventura right now !

Music was kinda loud that it was kinda hard to converse with friends. Bartenders we're nice, although it took awhile for our orders to be served. Quesadilla and garlic fries we're not bad choices. I Just can't say the same to the chicken tenders. Parking is residential so a little walk shouldn't be a problem. Overall, I wouldn't hesitate to visit this bar again.

Pros: free parking in the back, bartender is friendly, food is offered, space is large. Cons: food and drinks were bad, games were minimal, damaged, with pieces everywhere, staff was off putting Examples: - my friend ordered a hot chocolate and said it was the worst she's ever had. The water to powder ratio made it more like tea. She asked for more powder. They brought out a Swiss Miss packet, and made passive aggressive comments about how they were going above and beyond for her and they should charge her double (she's not a picky person so for her to complain you know it's bad) - we only found three games in the place but they were small plastic things like flick the ball into the hoop with all pieces out of the boxes and laying randomly under a tv tray behind a bar table - the food wasn't very good - the waiter didn't remember he needed my payment for the two hours I was there - the menu was basically non existent because their fryer was down and so they couldn't offer most items - it was dark and hard to see anything - the owner and her relative took over our hangout for around 30-40 min, asking us to bring in our "actor friends" and help them get more business.

I was a bit concerned when we first arrived, as there was a row of unhoused individuals further down the street near the freeway exit. However, once you pull in, the place is incredibly charming, and safe. The pool was great, and they even hosted a movie night, which was such a fun touch. My kids were so happy. We used the shuttle in the morning to get to the studios, which was very convenient. I also called the front desk after realizing I had left my stroller with valet, and they proactively brought my car up for me--such thoughtful service. The staff was especially helpful, which meant a lot as a single mom traveling with two children. We'll definitely be back.

I enjoyed the courtesy of the front desk staff. There is a very nice store right near the front desk. The lady was actually very helpful with an issue we had with the double decker bus we booked. She saved us and some guests from Australia some annoyance. The room was modern and we had a sort of garden/patio view. We were able to check in a few hours early but that is based on availability of course. I highly recommend staying here if you want to be in the West Hollywood area. It is a very charming hotel that was owned by Beverly Garland and now owned by her son.
