    Lovely table setup
    Joy G.

    We had our holiday staff party there and everything was absolutely perfect, the venue is gorgeous. The service was outstanding and Moe and his crew were on top of everything. The food was cooked to perfection. Everyone loved the ambiance and said it was the best party we ever had. I highly recommend having an event at Central by X2O!

    Celebrated our parents 55th wedding anniversary here last weekend, and I'm so happy with how everything went. The food was delicious (as it always is from X2O!), and the venue has everything you need for a nice celebration, like surround sound for music, and a large monitor for a slideshow. Thanks so much Taha for your help every step of the way, and for accommodating all of our requests! Also thank you Isaac and the rest of the Central/X2O team, service was wonderful from beginning to end.

This year we got the usual great lineup but instead of the DIY style show in a parking lot, Professor Vic moved it to the Cathedral. Located right off Garey, The Cathedral is tough to miss. There's plenty of street parking on Center St and there's also a small parking lot across the street. This used to be a YMCA but it looks like an old church with dark wood flooring, high ceilings and stained glass windows. A very cool venue. How did it sound? Loud. Extremely loud. They also had a huge video board which gave each band a little extra hot sauce. There were a couple of bars in the back and you could also order food. It's air conditioned in there but between the heat (100+ outside at the time) and the amount of bodies inside, it was at least bearable. Mosh for Youth was great as always and while I loved the DIY ethos in the past this felt like a leap forward. The sound, look and venue made this feel big time. I hope future MFY shows take place here...until they maybe outgrow this place too, which would mean more scholarships for the kids. Highly recommended!

    This place is so much fun--definitely a "the more, the merrier" kind of spot! I honestly wish…read morethey'd expand and bring a location to Orange County or even LA County... Anaheim or Fullerton would be amazing. We drove in from Orange County and ate beforehand since we weren't sure how the food situation worked with our 9:30 reservation. Turns out, they actually do have a solid food menu, but no regrets--this place is all about the experience. When we walked in, the energy was already through the roof. People were vibing, singing along, and just in great moods all around. The setup is awesome--kind of like a neon-lit bar with two pianos facing each other center stage and a drummer in the middle. And let me just say, that drummer was an absolute beast. While the pianists rotated in and out, he held it down the entire time without missing a beat. Service did take a little while to get started--we waited about 15-20 minutes before anyone came by--but once they did, everything picked up and stayed consistent. The staff kept checking in and made sure we were taken care of. One thing that really stood out to me (especially coming from a hospitality background) was how they handled a situation where someone in the front row got sick. It could've easily ruined the vibe, but the staff jumped in immediately, cleaned everything thoroughly, replaced the table, and sanitized the area quickly and professionally. Super impressive. Overall, I had such a great time and would absolutely go back. Huge shoutout to the pianists--they were incredibly entertaining--and major props again to that drummer. Now if the owner could bring this concept to Orange County... that would be next level!

    This was our first time here, and unfortunately, we were disappointed with the level of service. We…read morehad a 6:30 PM reservation and were seated promptly, which was appreciated. However, it took about 20 minutes before our waitress approached our table, despite there being a minimal crowd at the time and her appearing to manage only a few tables. Throughout the evening, we repeatedly had to seek out staff just to place drink and food orders. On one occasion, food was brought to our table that was not ours, and after waiting another 10 minutes, we again had to find someone to notify them of the mistake. When our platter finally arrived, it was missing the four sipping sauces that were listed as included, which required yet another attempt to locate our waitress. At times, our waitress could be seen in the kitchen on her phone, while two other servers working nearby were consistently attentive and visibly hustling all night. We stayed until 11 PM and once again had to search for her in order to receive our check. Overall, about 6 out of 8 interactions required us to actively look for our server. This type of atmosphere and dining experience requires consistent attention, which unfortunately was lacking during our visit. On another note we loved the show!

    I didn't actually come to drink and dance, I came for a memorial show for a beloved local musician…read more It wasn't a somber occasion but a tribute to a good guy who enjoyed ear shredding live music. Needless to say I thought the Flyway was an interesting choice of venue for this occasion. Located near the rooftop in the same building as the Fox Theater, you'll see the entrance off Garey. Parking is abundant and can be a bit pricey if you want to park in the closest lot between the Fox and the bank. I paid $25 because I was feeling a bit lazy. After walking up 4-5 flights of stairs (there is an elevator available) you'll find yourself in a nicely decorated room with wooden floors, couches along the wall and colorful lighting. Got that old tyme speakeasy vibe (but no piano music.) The bar is near where you enter. There were a few hiccups in the sound, probably because this place doesn't seem to have live music that often. Or it was on the musicians themselves (there were 11 bands that played, mostly way younger than I). But overall the sound was pretty good. I always have earplugs in but if I forgot them at home I wouldn't have lost much sleep. I didn't drink anything alcoholic but the bartenders were keeping the water cups going. That was very appreciated because with the amount of people moving it got warm on occasion. They also have a smaller balcony with a nice view of Garey and other parts of downtown Pomona. Would I come back for the nightclub? No. I'm too old for that lol. But another live show? Sure why not. You can never be too old for live music.

The dance floor is pretty big so not too much crowding where you're on top of each other. Parking isn't an issue. It is an older crowd that comes here which you get the occasional younger crowd. If you like drama don't come here, you should only come here if you like having a good time! Their drinks are fun. Pretty high energy here. Really just a good time.

Get it together and make sure everyone is aware of what is allowed or not. Don't have one person say yes... I went out of my way to get the balloons because they said yes. I would not recommend... at least their other locations have food this one didn't. The bartender seemed to be learning how to mix drinks. For the area this bar is in... the prices were not it. Save your time and money and go somewhere else.

We were wearing tank tops and got denied entry at first for no real reason. It felt weirdly targeted and just left a bad taste before we even got inside. Once we got in (after realizing we were actually in the wrong line), the place was dead. Like... no one dancing, barely any energy, people just sitting around. It felt awkward more than anything. They also charge $30 cash only at the door. No credit cards. If you don't have cash, you're stuck using their ATM. That alone was annoying. Most of the tables were reserved and overall the vibe just wasn't it. Definitely not worth the money. I wouldn't come back and wouldn't recommend it either. If you're choosing between this and the club next door, go to Flexx Nightclub instead. Way more fun and actually feels like a club.
