    One of the worst experiences I've had at a bar. I accidentally touched an orange that was sitting on the bar. As soon as I realized it might have been a mistake, I immediately apologized multiple times and took full responsibility. Instead of handling the situation professionally, the bartender and the security guard Brian became extremely aggressive and confrontational. Brian spoke to me in a disrespectful and insulting manner, and the entire situation escalated for no reason. Despite my repeated apologies and calm attitude, I was treated like a criminal and eventually removed from the venue over something that could have been resolved with a simple conversation. The issue was never the orange. The issue was how Brian and the bartender chose to treat a customer who was being respectful and apologetic. Their behavior seemed completely unprofessional, emotionally unstable, and far out of proportion to what actually happened. I will not be returning and would not recommend this place to anyone expecting basic respect from staff.

    Definitely a great spot for some good music on the weekends, they usually have a DJ and a dance floor in the back. The front is nothing. That's special, the drinks are okay, but the service is pretty fast. This is definitely more of a spot to visit to dance later in the night than a place to start your night.

    Friday date night went swell thanks to Bar Lubitsch! Two rooms with two completely different vibes. The front room upon entrance has your main bar and lots of seating. It's loud but you can enjoy a nice chat with someone if you're right next to them. Down the hallway to the back you have a stage setup for entertainment and that specific night there was live music. Dance floor was packed out, people were jammin. Not my type of music - I'm more of a hip hop head... but cool spot to meet people and mingle.

    Came here on Sunday to see a burlesque show and had a wonderful time! Everyone was so sweet and they truly make some of the best drinks here! I am definitely obsessed with their coffee martini that I was thinking of it long afterwards. It's such a dreamy decadent drink and the bartenders do a great job of making it well balanced. I love the space both the front and the back comedy room and they do a great job with the seating so you can see the show no matter where you're at. The seating is so comfy. The vibe is great and I love all the decor and pictures. I can't wait to return again soon.

    Yes.

    Is the cocktail menu all made with vodka or are there other options (e.g., gin, rum, whisky, tequila, etc.)?

    Do you require a Vax card to enter?

    Not anymore, at least not in August 2024.

    Do they serve beer on draft or in bottle? If so what do they offer?

    Everything is bottles and cans. Stella, Peroni, Guinness, Old Rasputin, Bavik, Pacifico, Delirium, Lagunitas IPA, Boomtown Limelight, Scrimshaw, Fort Point KSA and Excalibur Hard Cider are the current selections.

    Is there dancing on a Thursday night?

    YES, we do have dancing on Thursday nights! We start off with a DJ in the front room around 9pm, while there is a free comedy show in the back room, from ~8-11pm. After the comedy show, the backroom will also be open for dancing.…

    How much do you pay for the entrance? And if I reserved a table my guests still have to pay for entrance correct?

    No entrance fee ever.

    What's the dress code?

    Hi Yajaira! Business casual would be the standard dress, though plenty of our guests come dressed to the nines. We recommend no sandals as the dance floor gets pretty busy, we wouldn't want anything to happen to your toes!

    What kind of music do they play?

    Mainly Top 40 & Hip-Hop/R&B on Friday and Saturday nights. Great crowd as well! Definitely friendly vibes in the front room (bar area) and the back room (lounge and dance floor).

The restaurant is beautiful and reminds me of being in Mexico. A Spanish theme and style. A lot of seating and it's also spacious with an outdoor patio that is open to the customers and also widely used for many event. Everything was clean from what I noticed. The music volume was tolerable as well as the selection of choice. Felt like I was on vacation for a min. A great spot to have drinks. A great to spot to meet up or even come for a date. The Melrose Mule was cool. Very refreshing like the bartender mentioned. It was different than the usual mules I get. And the Improved Whiskey was like having an Old Fashion and Whiskey Sour together. It did not disappoint. I also had an attentive bartender who had a good attitude. Didn't take long for him to make my drinks nor put in an order for a smash burger. The smash burger was acceptable. It was good, however, I was expecting something a little bit bigger in size. I like the presentation with it being wrapped in foil. It was cooked perfectly, it was hot and flavorful. No complaints other than the size. I wouldn't mind pulling back up for another happy hour when I'm back in the area. They have some more drinks I would love to try.

Such an interesting spot to tuck it, above the Tail O' the Pup, and the building where the 'Doors' recorded their last studio album (LA Lady). Make your reservation online and don't be late because the clock starts at the time you chose and you will be informed when you get there late that that will be subtracted from your time at the end. They are obviously popular due to social media and it's not a huge place so they have to move people in and out, so just don't be late. The staff was uber-pleasant and personable, yet professional and expeditious. I didn't try any food, but the drinks were very tasty. They also have a small outside veranda if you prefer to sit out there. I was very pleased by my experience at the Lucky Tiki!

Our bartender was Shane and he was wonderful and really made our experience memorable. Zeke was the other bartender who was great as well. We ordered a Painkiller and a Captain's Inner Circle. Each drink comes in its own unique cup/glass and has such a fun presentation. The painkiller was presented to us with some fire elements and the captain's inner circle was hilarious - they ring a bell and all the workers join in on saying you're a part of the inner circle. Now the taste. Both of the drinks were delicious! We love a painkiller and this one definitely didn't disappoint, it totally hit the spot. I also loved the inner circle drink, it was coconutty and had fruity elements like apricot in it. There are so many drinks on their menu, we wish we could try them all! We'll have to come back next time to try more. They also have food but we didn't have time to try any dishes this time.

The food was just as memorable. The chicken Parmesan was everything you want it to be: crispy, flavorful, and topped with a rich, perfectly balanced marinara and plenty of melted cheese. The Rigatoni Vodka (we added a meatball) was equally impressive. The vodka sauce was creamy without being overly heavy, and the meatball was tender, well seasoned, and packed with flavor. One thing to know before you go: parking can be a nightmare. There is valet in front, or you can opt for parking in the surrounding neighborhood. You're better off grabbing a rideshare if you can. It makes the experience much easier, especially if you plan on enjoying a few drinks. Between the beautiful ambiance, generous portions, and delicious food, this is an easy recommendation. We'll definitely be back.

As we walked in, nothing caught our attention more than the brilliant lively atmosphere. As we took our seats we awaited what would surely be a culinary journey. We ordered the margarita pizza, the calamari, the meatballs, garlic bread, and the pasta pomodoro. Fortunately and unfortunately, our first dish of the night happened to be the garlic bread. The bread locked. It's garlic butter flavor, or that of flavor at all. if it was all we had ordered, Met Him At A Bar would surely be given one star, but thankfully they had more to offer. The meatballs for one held our attention much longer than that of the garlic bread. The flavoring in the meatballs themselves brought us straight back to our childhood straight back to our roots, as the creamy marinara sauce brought the dish to life. A simple yet elegant dish truly. For us, the calamari was simply there. It's maintained everything you want in a calamari yet added nothing new. It stood out to us not in a world of flavor, texture, and culinary experiences. The Margarita Pizza, however it was quite small. What it lacked in size was made up for in flavor. The melted mozzarella mixed with pizza sauce on the pizza to create a pool of flavor, lingering in the middle of the pizza until one slice is picked up and eaten. Lastly, the pasta Pomodoro. The sauce was thin, the pasta was overcooked instead of al dente. In the singular basil leaf stood atop the pasta, not for flavor, but to save the appearance of a disgraceful pomodoro. It's safe to say, Met Him At A bar may or may not be "Meating" us again... Most Sincerely, yours truly: Henry Pollock & Hayden Kalebic

However, there is no food menu just alcoholic drinks. I found parking across the street where the CVS & WholeFoods are located. I didn't have any issues, but I only parked there for about 2 hours. Right before I left, the bartenders helped me discover a secret entrance to the bar next door. When you walk in you'll notice a bookshelf, if you slide that bookshelf to the right, you'll open the entrance to the bar next door. Pretty cool! Will definitely come back again.
