My birthday celebration began with a real adventure: trying to find a hidden rooftop joint called Bar Bohemien before being joined by my son, brother and sister in law in the fastest changing city in Los Angeles, Culver City. I got there early, found parking at a park and then wandered around and around, down an alley into a Japanese restaurant that turns out is in a giant food court of sorts with multiple different kinds of restaurants inside called Public Citizen and only then asking people where was I did a server for another restaurant take me to the front entrance where there was a tiny sign mentioning Bar Bohemien which was inside and up stairs to the roof. I had the Raspberry Beret which was quite good and we all enjoyed our cocktails sitting on a banquette. I used walkie talkies to alert my family of the reconnaissance mission and so began my birthday with some cocktails sitting on a couch on the rooftop where Michael treated us to a round before we went off to dinner. Upstairs in downtown Culver City they created a very pleasing atmosphere with the seating tables and banquettes but it is so urban that for a rooftop bar there was only views that they partially hid of ducts and A/C units atop other buildings. On this night the view, or lack of one, was irrelevant as we shared laughs and I pondered how did I get this old?

Love Love Love this place. The drinks. The rooftop. The vibe. The energy. The bartenders. The location. I discovered this spot on accident and have fallen in love with that I go every chance I get. It's the only other rooftop bar besides the Shea hotel or Margot. If you get a chance check it out I heard that citizens market is changing ownership so I don't know what that means as far as like the other eateries, but I was told that the bar bohemian was going to stay

Been here a few times. The most recent, last week before dinner across the street. Know that's its downtown Culver City - rooftop bar up on top of the Citizen Public Market. As I already mentioned heading to dinner across the street - it's because Bar Bohemien doesn't serve food. There's some bar snacks, but not actual food prepared in a kitchen and served. I didn't look at the selection but I imagine it's probably chips and stuff. Almost forgot to mention parking. Downtown Culver has a few parking garages. I prefer the garages on Cardiff and and Watseka. I don't know the rates but this last visit, it was $4 charged to my card. Not too bad for LA. Service is at the bar. Order and wait for your drink(s). If you're with people, have them go find seating because it can get busy. Especially out on the roof. I chose to sit inside this last time - everyone seemed to want to be outside and I really didn't feel like being social. Bartender was friendly but busy. Drinks have been and were great. Ordered the Bohemien Remedy this time. Enjoyed the Texas single malt and the brown sugar and vanilla notes. Adding in all the other ingredients, the drink was balanced not too citrusy or acidic. I couldn't taste the rum spritz but I guess that's just for smell. Everything together went well for my taste though I wouldn't have minded a little more punch (ABV). But I'll just say that I'd order this again. Guess the last line lets you know I'll be back for more. Gotta make the liver happy!

I had to remove one star for someone's shadiness at the bar. Not sure who did it but we encountered friendly people the entire time. At the end of the night on one of the bills, it was closed out, card was received back and then an extra tip was added. We had to text to have it removed. Cash tip was given and the other 4 people who came also tipped heavily so it was pretty upsetting. Nonetheless, the bar did give the extra amount back but it's the fact that we had to contact them AFTER finding out this was added. NOTE: Close out each time. You MUST sign. Do not leave until you, yourself sign and add the tip yourself or you may end up with a surprise addition. We came for the first time and came with a group of 5. It was a great time. Had no idea that this place had music and dancing toward the end of the night. We tipped heavily as this place has awesome bar mixologist. The drinks were amazing. There is a good amount of choices of food inside the establishment but not in this bar. We were allowed to bring the food in to eat. Drinks were between $16 to $22 depending on what you ordered. Beautiful set up. We all may come back as we did have a great time here but next time we will be closing out with each order.

Nomadic sour...at the bar

This was the 3rd time I've been here and can't believe that I've not written a review yet! The service from the bar tenders is highly attentive...a very pleasant surprise when the bar is packed! It's an adorable spot& the rooftop patio with heaters & comfy couches makes this a place to come for just about any occasion. It's been a great place for a cozy date as well as completely fitting the bill for a moderately rowdy girlfriend catch-up. I ordered a different signature cocktail each time I've come, & can vouch for the fact that you really can't "order wrong!" My favorite so far: the Nomadic Sour...with the rare achievement of being smoky yet still allowing you to taste all the other amazing flavors in it.

This is THE date night spot for drinks in culver. $20 cocktail on a rooftop?? Plenty of parking in the public lots of course. Only $1 after the first complimentary hour. Then $2 etc after that. Been here plenty of times for dates. I saw citizen public market is closing so I'm guessing bar bohemian is also closing. There were plenty of tables and lounge areas. Some nights there's comedy. The drinks got us tipsy. J couldn't taste the liquor in mine but my partner's whiskey drink was strong. He said it was not that strong but he got tipsy before me. The bartenders are friendly and execute the crafted drinks well. We'll miss this spot.

Bar Bohemian, a craft cocktail bar located on the second floor of what seems to be a food court. Walking in, the place seemed cozy & festive for the holidays with a couple intimate seating areas. They have an extended outdoor seating area, but heaters weren't turned on, on a chilly night. Bartenders were friendly and inviting. This is the kind of bar where drinks are built in front of you, needless to say two drinks totaled to $42. Tip not included (always tip 20%) Overall cute bar, perfect for a date!

Ambiance: the bar is located on the second floor of citizen public market, open bar style seats inside and outside in the public area Service: fairly fast although not as friendly Drink: quite a few cocktails choices on their menu but without clear price after each FROM LA, WITH LOVE - *** Tequila, Passionfruit, Lofi Amaro, Lime & Grapefruit, Topped with Prosecco, average taste THEM APPLES - **** Humboldt's Finest Vodka, Mommenpop Makrut Lime, Green Apple, Vanilla, Yuzu, Soda, recommend Price: absolutely overpriced for generally lackluster drinks, totally not worth $20 per cocktail

Fun little bar in the Citizen Public Market. Gave me laid-back, relaxing vibes - the type of place you'd go to sit and enjoy a drink and good conversation. They had both indoor and outdoor seating, but neither location had a lot of seating - took us a moment to find a place for 2, and it wasn't that crowded while we were there. Lots of great cocktails - From LA with Love had to be my favorite (anything with prosecco will always be a win!). They also made a good espresso martini. We had to park in a paid lot across the street, but it was easy to get to from there and the cost wasn't too bad. A fun bar to enjoy a nice time out with a partner or friends.

From LA with Love (tall orange drink) and LA Adelita (Mocktail)
Jie G.

We sat on the patio with a few cocktails we ordered: From LA with Love (tall orange drink) and LA Adelita (Mocktail). They were fantastic! I especially like the ambiance of the bar. It is located in a trendy food stall in downtown Culver City with other ethnic food on the first floor and the bar and its patio on the second floor! The only thing I need to subtract one star is the priciness of the drink $16-20 for a small glass!

This is a really pretty rooftop bar. We came here late on a Thursday night and they had a lot of outdoor seating and some indoor. The drinks were really good and strong. The bartender wasn't extremely friendly though. But it was a nice spot and they had a little Photo Booth, a movie projector, and cute areas for photos. * The Photo Booth does have an awkward angle from above so I'm not sure if it'll take really good photos.

From LA, with love

Stumbled upon this hidden upstairs bar when we were visiting Citizen's Market, and it's definitely a little oasis nestled within the beautiful historic setting of the building and overlooking downtown Culver. The bar itself is artfully decorated, reminding me of a slightly overgrown castle with its dangling vines and red brick walls, with both indoor and outdoor seating. Bartenders were quick with orders even with a consistent flow of customers, and drinks were made decently well and unique in concept, although they were a bit pricey (especially for the fact they came in plastic cups). If you're in the area and looking for a vibey, relaxing bar to socialize with friends, I highly recommend checking them out!

Dhanushree P.

Cool bar, good drinks, nice vibes. They really do need more seating though. From the small and limited patio they have - half of it was closed off for an event. It's just not enough space for a bar. It got realllyyy tight on a Wednesday evening, can't even imagine what it's like on the weekends.

The area is prone to heavy traffic, and parking can be a challenge. We eventually found metered parking after fighting our way through traffic, which wasn't exactly a pleasant way to start the meal. Once inside, though, things improved. The service was good, and so was the food. We both ordered the fish and chips. My spouse started with the tomato soup, while I had the Caesar salad. I have to admit, the salad was a bit of a disappointment--it was somewhat soggy. I tried my spouse's tomato soup, though, and thought it was very good. We both really enjoyed the fish and chips. It very much felt like an Irish Pub, If I worked in the area, I could see myself stopping by to have a drink and to hang out with friends. For dessert, I had the bread pudding, which I loved. My spouse had the lava cake and said he enjoyed it as well. Overall, the traffic and parking are a drawback, and the Caesar salad missed the mark, but the rest of the meal was very good. Between the food and the service, there's enough here to bring me back.

The highlight of the meal was easily the wings, which were some of the best I've had in a very long time. Crispy, flavorful, and worth coming back for on their own. The rice beer was also a nice find and paired well with the food. Service was a bit spotty at times, but nothing that would keep me from returning.

It Was the Best Yet at Simonette!…read more I stopped by Simonette in Culver City on Friday for happy hour with a friend, and what started as happy hour turned into a really beautiful evening. Simonette is located inside Palihotel in Culver City, and I really enjoyed the intimate outdoor setting. There were trees, twinkling lights and a warm, inviting atmosphere that made the evening feel extra nice. The space is smaller than I expected, but not in a way that felt cramped. Parking can be a little tricky, so definitely plan ahead. Valet is $17, but there are other parking options nearby if you don't mind walking. We actually arrived about 45 minutes late for our reservation because we weren't familiar with the parking situation, but thankfully they were still able to accommodate us. I would recommend making a reservation. I ordered the Burger Parisienne with caramelized onion, American cheese and sauce bordelaise, and when I tell you that burger was drenched in sauce... whew! I ate it like a slice of cake. The sauce, cheese and caramelized onions all worked so well together. We also ordered the boquerones deviled eggs with white anchovy, olives and chives. They were SO nice that I ordered them twice! If that doesn't tell you how much I enjoyed them, I don't know what will. Lastly, we ordered the Parmesan pommes frites with aioli? That aioli made those fries come alive! The customer service was excellent. Shoutout to Timothy at the front because his energy and hospitality were unmatched. He was friendly and welcoming, and definitely made a great first impression. There is also plenty to explore around Culver City, and I really enjoyed the community feel of the area. People were out walking around, meeting up with friends and enjoying their Friday evening. My friend and I even walked around after dinner. Overall, Simonette was a great experience from the food to the atmosphere and the service. The Burger Parisienne and those deviled eggs alone have me wanting to go back. I'd absolutely recommend giving Simonette a try if you're in Culver City!

The tartare was excellent, but the entrees fell flat. The steak used to be a tender filet; this time the cut was chewy, cut with the grain, and smothered in a new curry sauce. I don't know if we got a bad cut or if they've downgraded quality to manage rising beef prices, but the sauce felt like it was masking something. At $41, I can't justify the dish. The chicken's flavor was still good, but the portion seemed smaller, and it's no longer served with their excellent whipped potatoes. Sadly, we're moving on. LA has no shortage of great restaurants, and at these prices, every dish needs to earn it. C'est la vie, Simonette.

They didn't seem to do much except for slowly bus tables and help carry food out. Ordered the Monk's Manhattan, Lychee Martini and Mango Lassi. 2 drinks were delivered in good time with the third sitting on the bar for at least 10 minutes before I asked a waitress bussing the table next to us to bring it over. She didn't seem very happy that I asked. Cauliflower, lamb, rosemary naan and butter chicken were all delicious. I saw some chutney on other tables - that would have been nice. We decided after we had some butter chicken sauce left over that we could use some rice. Rice was brought right after we asked for it (nice). However, we discovered as we dug in that it was cold rice. Not just lukewarm - cold like it had been in the fridge. We asked for some warm rice. After about 10 minutes we were asked if we needed a box. We're just waiting for the rice we said. Oh, warm rice appeared right after we asked for it then - not sure where the rice came from. Was it microwaved? If it was in a rice cooker, why didn't it come immediately after we returned the cold rice? Very strange. Then we waited another 10 minutes for the check. At this point there was no one else indoors and maybe about 4 tables outdoors. All in all it was never very busy but it seems like resources weren't efficiently managed. Bartender could have dellvered drinks instead of letting them sit at the bar. Waitresses could be helping waitress overall. Anyway, it was good food but we don't need to go back.
