Went here for the Belvedere reunion. No air conditioning. Was so hot in there everyone was complaining and sweating. Also smelled really funky. They Also wanted $300 for a table. Lol We will never go there again! read more

I met up with family this past weekend and chose this bar since I've always enjoyed coming here. Unfortunately, I was really disappointed by how much it has gone downhill. What used to be a lively spot on a Friday night now had only about 10 people. The condition of the bar was shocking--there was mold and dust on the ceiling, and behind the bar, the floor squished as workers walked on the wet safety mat. It smelled like stagnant water, and the entire place looked dirty. The new owners have clearly let it go. One of them was even drunk, stumbling around and inappropriately smacking people's behinds. I'm not sure what happened to this bar, but it's heartbreaking to see it in such a state. While the drinks were fine, we were charged full price during the first hour of happy hour. I definitely won't be returning unless the new owners start taking better care of the place and stop treating it like their personal party spot. read more

WENT HERE FOR OUR HOLIDAY CHRISTMAS PARTY- IT WAS CUTE! GOOD FOOD! GREAT SERVICE! Food: 5/5 Okay, I was expecting to like the big burger I got! Never been a fan of burgers, but the queso fundido burger was a 10/10! The chorizo was AMAZING! The egg wasn't too runny, yet not too over cooked, and the jalapeño was grilled just right ! Their garlic fries were out of this world, and I'm just not a French fry girl! Service:5/5 They were so kind to us, they let us take Christmas pictures on their stage where the Christmas tree was, and anytime we needed something, they for sure let us know! All around: 5/5 Id come back again! That burger was the best I've ever had, honestly. Looking forward to ordering it again! read more

I felt punked liked I was in an episode of "bar rescue" this place was so packed I was getting bumped into and I was sitting at the bar chair with my husband and friend who invited us. Drinks are watered down, I had 4 jameson and a beer and I didn't have a head change. Crowd: over 40 ladies dressed like their 20s, no body shaming but a bit of a circus if that's your thing. A lot of weirdos roaming. It was a very odd crowd. The space: overcrowded for a small venue which means the door man wasn't diligent about the head count. The service: absolutely horrible- It felt as though they received bad news just as they were opening up and did not want to be there. To the manager, come on 3 women for the crowd turnout? What were you thinking...? 45 minutes before ordering food that's unheard of... so we didn't get to try anything. The entertainment: The Djs didn't seem so bad however, by 11:30pm the place was so packed that there was no reason to stay. No room to dance or even see the next act who I was hoping to see, we end up just leaving. I do recommend this place for live entertainment just I hope the management doesn't violate the capacity limitation & has by then hired on more on call staff to help. PS do not place bar chairs by the bar when you have this large of a turnout and get rid of your table reserved areas. If you see they haven't changed and a lot of people are turning up I suggest leaving it'll only go down hill. read more

Came to Cities Restaurant for a business mixer and was not impressed with the ambiance, food or service. I ordered a mixed-drink, and it was weak and full of ice. Instead of having servers walk around with apetizers trays, the appetizers were placed in a dark corner of the room on a table with no thongs to grab them. There was Karoake too and some people sang. The place is spacious with a full bar area. The lighting seemed murky, fuzzy and darkish. There's an upstairs floor, but it was closed. The restroom area and hallway looked rather dark, spooky or smoky or both. I made the sign of the cross before entering and found the men's bathroom was functional, but not stocked with TP, cologne, mints or towels. read more

During my visit, I witnessed my friend being punched by an aggressive patron. Instead of removing the person who committed the assault, staff removed my friend, who was the victim. It was apparent that the person who assaulted her was friends with the DJ and staff, which appeared to influence how the situation was handled. When we asked management to review the security camera footage to ensure the correct party was removed, they refused. To make matters worse, a man verbally threatened my friend, and staff still failed to intervene appropriately. This establishment showed clear favoritism and a serious disregard for patron safety. read more

Worker asked me if I wanted to close my tab when I was still there... then proceeded to get mad when I didn't wanna tip because I had multiple servers. If you don't like the pay... then that's on you lol. I didn't like the way I got approached when I was still there and I had an open tab still. Should have better manners read more

Preface: Did not have food here. Came Saturday evening around 9:30pm. Grabbed a ginger beer ($5) and a beer ($9). Kitchen was already closed so they were only serving nachos, fries, sliders. Sports playing on the TVs at the bar. Music started off being hip hop and changed into Spanish stuff. Fairly empty until around 10pm when the crowd trickled in, the music changed, and folks made it out to the dance floor. The DJ was good and got the place moving! Pretty chill vibe. Didn't feel unwelcomed or uncomfortable with the late 30s and 40s mostly Hispanic crowd. Would recommend for a chill night out! Women's toilets could use some improved cleaning as typical for these types of places. read more

We went and on a Saturday night and the crowds age groups was 40''s. They have a bar with good drinks that are reasonably priced but seating was limited. They have a 2nd floor but the seats were a bit odd. Our biggest complaint is when we had called before we were informed they play R&b and hip hop but we did not hear even one song in the genre. They had Dj but everyone just stood on the dance floor. I really wish the dj would read the crowd. Then they had live bands that played Latin music. We gave up and left at midnight. Just wish we were given the correct information read more

Came here for new wave night and it did not dissapoint. Great sound system here. Special beers on tap. The cucumber martini was muddled cukes and not too sweet. Loved it. Other pleasantly strong drinks for me. Wish the dance floor could be bigger because by 11pm it was packed. There is also a small outside area for smoking and talking. Check Facebook for evening events. It's a restaurant and event site. read more

Been coming here for a few years now and I forget how much I love this restaurant. Bar side for adults and restaurant side for families. Outside and patio seating available. Great happy hour prices on food and drinks. Food is tasty and creative. Fast friendly service with a smile. A they also have board games. A juke box sets the mood even though good music is playing. I recommend their flatbread pizza and pork belly tacos. Any margarita is made to perfection. Jesse helped us out and he couldn't have been much nicer. See you soon Cities. read more

THE BOUNCERS ARE RACIST!!!!!! they didn't let me black friend in because he was wearing capris with boots !!!! it was cold and RAINING (keep in mind i was wearing boots with a skirt) he wore his boots because of the weather and wore his cutest little capris for when cities turn into club but this place likes to discriminate so we take out money somewhere else that doesn't care about gender expression!! read more

The title says restaurant, but in all fairness I never see this place open during the day and only attend at night. However the black walls don't seem welcoming like a restaurant. So my review is based on my nightlife experience. Watered down drinks and unfriendly bartenders who don't care about customer service. read more

Trying to reserve a space is very difficult. I have tried calling the number listed at all times of the day that no one answers is frustrating and sending messages on their social media platforms leave your chat without replies. If you want to plan any reservations larger than the 10 allowed on Google Assistant, it will be pretty much impossible. read more

My second time here. The first time I didn't stay for long. The music was great. The service over all was amazing. I love how everyone was very attentive. The drinks were very tasting. read more

I have been coming back here with colleagues because of the food. Service is fast during low traffic but expect to wait long for food during busy hours. Managers are very accommodating. The place can be noisy (as expected). Parking is in the lots near the freeway, NOT behind the building. read more

My friend had his 55th birthday party here on a Saturday night. We had a good crowd and the place was happening. We found parking around the corner and the neighborhood seems safe compared to other parts of ELA. It was almost impossible to walk up to the bar and get a drink because it was jam packed. My biggest complaint about most clubs is that the music is way too loud, we come to socialize and we can barely talk to each other. read more

So I was debating whether to write this because it's a local restaurant and I love supporting. But I also know when to speak up when something isn't right. Many people recommended me this place so I decided to go try it. Well they sat me down right away and handed me a 4 item menu (due to COVID I'm guessing?) and I decided to get a burger which I ordered well done. I receive my burger which I was excited for because it looked delicious. First bite and I notice something is off... I look down into a bloody raw burger! I immediately call the waitress and show her my suppose to be well done burger. She tried offering me a new burger but I refused due to my disgust this caused me and asked for the check, which they didn't charge me for. Needless to say, I won't be returning and no, I haven't been able to eat a burger ever since... read more

Excellent bartender Saturday, DJ was killing it, dance floor was packed & the entire place was pretty full too.

I went there on Wednesday night I gave the bartender a $50 bill- I ordered a modelo and an ipa He threw19 bucks back on the bar. I think he charged me for someone else's drink (either that or he kept the rest!) I didnt say anything but was bothered all night - rude didnt even hand me my change just threw it on the bar! Lousy service for sure-rip offs! read more

Looks like it just reopened, the food and drinks are not good. The woman's bathroom was out of toilet paper and seat covers. Will not go there again. It used to be a favorite spot before the pandemic. read more

Terrible service, there is a limited menu. There is one server very slow and the management lets patrons to take over the Aux and put whatever music they like without consideration of others. I asked to change the music and I got a flat out no. I thought it was very inconsiderate because I also paid for my meal and drinks so I why is one individual from the public taking over the music? read more

Nice atmosphere good beers on tap. Has an upstairs and downstairs. Will definitely visit again and recommend it to my friends. The food was good service was really good read more

Food was very delicious however, service was almost none existing. We waited for about 15 min to be seated. No one seated us so we just sat at a table. Waited for a while to get a menu and to have a server take our order. Food did come out rather quickly once placed. Will be coming back to try more things in the menu but will strongly recommend improvement in the service area. read more
