Salt and Pepper Calamari
Jennifer S.

Was not impressed with this place. Seems like a lot of regulars frequent this Playa Vista corner restaurant/bar. Extremely loud and busy due to a few tables with adults letting their children run wild around the place. Service was good but almost too hover-y, and the single guy at the table behind us was so drunk he had to be cut off and kicked out of the restaurant. We ordered the fried calamari appetizer, which arrived in a huge plastic martini glass. It was ok but looked like way more seafood than it actually was due to the giant pile of fries underneath (and our sandwiches already came with copious amounts of french fries). I ordered a fried chicken sandwich on a pretzel bun that was so hard and stale I was unable to even bite into it, so had to disassemble the sandwich and eat the chicken separately. Boyfriend's burger was ok, nothing special. Not worth returning to.

Gulp Club Sandwich with gulp fries

In the area for a little weekend get away. My friends and I came here for dinner. We started off with drinks (not pictured) which were all good; wine, beer and a cocktail. For an appetizer we had garlic pretzel knots. They were delicious! Fresh chopped garlic on warm pretzel knots. The beer cheese paired very well with the flavor profile of the garlic! You can never go wrong with garlic. For my entree I had the Gulp Club Sandwich. It was good. It had grilled chicken, bacon, avocado, lettuce, tomato and a Cajun aioli. I do wish there was a little bit more of the aioli as that kick was much desired. It came with fries or a salad. I opted for "Gulp Fries" which was regular fries and sweet potato fries. Fries were okay..needed a touch more seasoning. My friends ordered steak fajitas which smelled delicious! Generous portion (2 of them shared one dish) with all the fixins'. Service was great. Our waiter was friendly and attentive. The atmosphere is nice was well. Seating inside and outside with numerous TV's to watch any sports games. Dog friendly also! Definitely a great spot!

We ordered the burrito of Del Rey with tater tots to go. The burrito is delicious with bacon, beans, and guac. Tater tots still held the crunchy texture when we got home (10 mins walk). Served with ketchup, green and red salsa. Yummy!

Batter dipped fries!

Dropped in for an early dinner with my son. They weren't busy and took care of us right away. They have a great beer selection and some fun cocktails if you're feel adventurous. I loved my grilled chicken club sandwich. Simple but well done. My son enjoyed the buffalo chicken sliders. And we. It's couldn't get enough of the batter dipped fries. They are really good! We were too full for dessert but I will say I was impressed with the creativity of their dessert jar options. I would definitely make a trip out just to give them a try! Great local gem in Playa Vista!

Gulp is a local neighborhood spot in Playa del Rey. It's in the heart of the neighborhood so it quiet and peaceful. No valet as there's street parking but because it's in the middle of a neighborhood it may be a challenge to find a spot. We never have a problem though. There's no wait. The service is always excellent. The food is good and the drinks are too. A good place to watch sports as they do have a full bar and tv's. Its located in a nice neighborhood across from a park. A nice local spot to hang out watch the game and have good and drinks

Two egg breakfast and extra crispy bacon--dont judge me, this is what I want. I want to break teeth on my bacon.
Liezl E.

You know what you're getting into when you go to Gulp. It's solidly consistent bar food. I like their happy hour half portioned Chinese chicken salad, which is STILL huge. My main reason for coming here is brunch though. I just want a good, no frills, two egg breakfast. This place provides that. It's two eggs, bacon, breakfast potatoes, and choice of toast (with a tiny scoop of butter and prepackaged jam). Gulp delivers on this and I will be back.

My friend Conrand I are pool players, casual one's for sure. We do not dream of playing pool in…read morefuture Olympic games. But there is something quite wonderful about chasing pool tables at different dive bars. Namely that one does not know what billiards may bring. On this night, Conrad and I ended up at this cozy joint (pun intended) to handle some sticks with grace and alignment. And we did discover some fun and, on this occassion, a tattoo with wisdom that we should all heed, "the more we value things outside our control the less control we have." As the picture I took shows there is a candle above the quote which signals, in my opinion, that this should be a mantra that should govern one's life, as the one we are given comes with a burning wick the moment we are born. And, if we worry about things that we cannot mold to our liking or design, then we miss what is for us, time and again. But I visit dive bars so please take what I am saying with a dot of tattoo needle. One of the things that I really appreiated about this bar was the fact that I could use my credit card to get quarters. I never had that option and it was useful when needed. I ve been to other bars and that did not hapen. I mean who carries cash? I mean quarters? I guess people who need to pay meters and laundermats but they also have card options for them. Is this place ahead of the curve or other places in pace? I have been to bars and one is suppose to wait until the bartender is ready to serve you. But some people, me being one of them, thinks that the squeaky wheel gets the wheel. Or close mouth's dont get fed is the more apt, tired, saying. So I called the bartender over, had my shot, so I spoke. And she ignored me. Her choice. It is a legitimate process to avoid demanding customers. I then looked at a sign in the bar and it reminded me to "Behave." I do not know, but I highly suspect, that the sign worked on multiple levels and one of them was to remind the demanding lot to chill and wait their turn. So I did. Still I think that sometimes speaking up is the best way to get faster service. I mean, obvious, I know, but how many people sit and wait there turn to be given a beer that should have sooner rather than later. They "behaved" and their prize was a beer that waited for them to act and came when it was ready, not when they were thirsty. Even though Conrad and I went to play pool, the wait was too long. Like over 40 minutes long. There was other stuff we can do it had all the dive bar classics that are needed for a good time. Plus this place had charm. Pictures of big fish caught by people. Plus the people in there spoke about trips to Portugal and early mornings. So the people there might have a tip on a stock. As we drove away Conrad and I notice that they open the spot at 6:00 a.m,. And we were like who is drinking at the hour in a socially acceptable way, that is also healthy? I told him that the one time I had beer with my breakfast was on St. Patrick's day. So I did as the Irishmen did. Now I am left wondering who drinks beer before the trike of 9:00 a.m. and legitimately does it as a safe practice?

We had a great experience and great food at N17 The Lane! I see some recent complaints regarding…read moreservice during the World Cup. It's clear they've put intentional effort into improving this week, as service was a highlight for us. Our waiter, Sunny, was so polite, quick, and communicative. He had a lot of tables to cover, as it was a packed and chaotic room during the Mexico vs. Ecuador game last night. The N17 burger and fries (both the regular shoe string fries and sweet potato fries) were fantastic! Both were cooked just right, very flavorful, and the fries were nice and crispy. The atmosphere and design of the restaurant in front isn't your typical "sports bar" - it feels more like a cute, sunny brunch restaurant with high-quality screens for sports viewing - but the clientele feels just like any other sports bar would :) It was very lively and fun to watch with others last night. For the World Cup, they've opened up their event space in the back which is not set up like a typical restaurant - but it was great for viewing! The screens are HUGE and very high-quality.

Listen, I understand being busy is one thing but blatantly ignoring paying customers that have been sitting and waiting to be served for 20-30 minutes after only ordering two drinks is strange to me. And then to come back and ask if we wanted to remove the items we already ordered without us having to bring it up just lets me know that you remembered all this time but chose not to serve us until someone had to go ask to be served AGAIN. Even other venues that are 5x bigger than this one have better customer service/attentiveness. We also ordered the bottomless mimosas and only got through 2 bottles because it took them 20 minutes to bring out the first one and another 15 to bring out the second one when it was asked for. And on top of that, they act like they're doing YOU a favor by bringing out the food & drinks that YOU paid for. I have never written a negative review before but this experience was awful; just a waste of money &, what should have been, a good time.

It's a really spacious bar and it was totally full during the games, and the energy of the crowd was amazing! Would definitely recommend coming here for sports events. As for the food, we tried the fish and chips and the soft pretzel. It was standard pub food - serviceable and fine for a game day, but nothing special. You're definitely coming here for the energy and the experience, not the food. If you're interested in getting the fish and chips, I found that the appetizer version (which comes with 2 pieces of fish instead of 3 like the entree version) was still huge and I couldn't finish it. Would recommend getting that as a cheaper alternative to the entree version!

I know it's more of a sports/dive bar, and that's exactly the vibe I'm looking for. Tonight was another solid visit.

It was beyond overcooked and had zero flavoring. Absolutely not worth the added charge. We loved the fried zucchini too! Super fresh and great batter. Overall I did like the food here! But I'd avoid the salads unless you want to be attempting to stab at lettuce for 45 minutes.
