    I won the all you can drink prize playing bingo!
    Zach L.

    I came in on a random Saturday in June 2024 and was greeted by a big smile and an explanation on Kava. Stayed for hours with my friend and have been coming back regularly since. The owners and staff are amazing. Great ambiance, flavorful drinks and great people. Being sober it's nice having a place to hang out without the drunk loud atmosphere. I definitely recommend checking this place out. fyi the arcade games are free and bingo every Friday night!

    Oreo Oat Milkshake

    Coming in at noon, the place was pretty quiet. But we were welcomed by a kind server. The outside was a bit jarring and loud because they're right across from a car wash. Suprisingly, they were able to mask the noise outside really well and it also was not noticable in their cute back patio. We really enjoyed the oreo oatmilk shake. It didn't taste any different from a normal milk shake. The Horchata was also delicious, It was lighter and refreshing. The relaxing effect of kava was Interesting. We enjoyed a sort of body relaxation and didn't really notice until we realized that we had a sort of body calmness and we're just happily vibing. We'll def do this again and look forward to trying their free games and try other flovors. the kava shot was bigger than I expected. And on its own, it tasted almost sour, aromatic after taste. Definitely a sipping experience.

    First time here and everyone is so nice and the vibe is chill. I'll definitely be returning the drinks are good too! I recommend you bring your friends here if you're looking for something chill to do !

    There isn't any food, but if you come when Jaopaya Thai is open you can order from there! The thai place is literally next door. Thai and kava would have had been such a vibe, but we came very late. BUT they allow outside food, so we door dashed from McDonald's to the lounge. The kava drinks taste so good. I got the oreo one with 1 shot. The service was amazing. The inside was a vibe, and they had a lot of board games and such. Also they had arcade machines, I don't know if someone left their credits in but I was able to play for free. So cool! I definitely recommend this place for people who want to try Kava. Thank you to all of the staff there that made this visit welcoming.

    Tried kava for the first time--tastes like earthy regret but feels like a warm hug from the universe. Fifteen minutes in, my stress melted, my shoulders dropped, and suddenly I was vibing with strangers like we were old friends at a beach bonfire. Not your average drink, but if you're looking to sip your way to inner peace without the hangover, this root's got you.

    I love this Kava Lounge. I love spending my time here with my boyfriend and my friends. The employees are extremely sweet with quick service. Erika & Francis are truly the best. I come here very often because the vibes are great and so are the people. There's an indoor & outdoor area with music, pretty LEDS, great decor for every holiday, arcade machines, board games, TV'S, a bathroom and you can also smoke outside. The drinks are so good and the kava is amazing and a great alternative if you don't drink alcohol. They host fun events often! I recommend this place to all of my friends and everyone who is contemplating on coming.

    Everyone here is always so nice to us and the ambiance is amazing. I love going here often with my girlfriend and we both love all of the drinks, they're really good. Great service and music always, and inside and outside areas are very nice. The Shirley temple is my favorite drink so I recommend that to anyone that comes here.

    I've been to Kava Lounge LA twice now and will definitely be returning. Such a chill place to relax with friends. Pop in on a Friday night to enjoy a couple rounds of bingo too! Try a monkey shot while you're there!

    El servicio al cliente aquí fue mal. Por favor, investiguen sobre Kava... No buena. El matcha estaba en el menú, pero no estaba listo para servir. ¿Por qué?

    Strawberry horchata & regular horchata drinks with Kava

    Great place to stop by and hang out either solo or with some friends! You'll be able to get some work done here or play some of the board games they carry. I recommend getting the strawberry horchata drink, extremely delicious

    Ahhhh where do i begin?!…read more Been here twice; and on the second visit i decided to leave a review! Reseda is not our usual spot for a Saturday night but V lounge may have changed that or at least our idea of it. They have Valet parking for their location but it is small and it will most certainly fill up! you can park on the street or off of G-line Metro station they have parking there and its well lit. Upon walking in the guard does a quick pat down and checks for ID and purses following that you walk through metal detectors. There was no cover charge. As soon as you enter you have the bar to the left and to the right you have the nightclub. They have so much seating area! that was impressive! In our first visit they did not have tonic for my usual vodka tonic i will say this place is expensive for a non cocktail drink. I do want to point out that they have pricing discrepancies. how do we go from the first round of drinks which was jack and coke for $32 dollars then the next round be $36 dollars ?? make that make sense. You can tell the crowd is very much about dancing. after all what do you come to a nightclub for ? they have great dance floor with a lot of lighting and loud speakers. I would like to say that the seating booths are for bottle service or buckets of beer and seltzers'. I think the buckets of beer start off at $8 per container (depending on what you get) we got 6 white claws for $48. Bathrooms were decent but could be improved in my opinion. The ac system works great its always fresh though we have not put it to the test by dancing. This place has so much potential to improve. I still have mixed feelings so we shall see what the future holds.

I got lucky with one on the corner but my friend had to park blocks down. Now i don't want to say she was being rude for the sake of it. It could be cause she's the only bartender handling a whole restaurant with no help and getting frustrated. One one occasion ordering with 2 other people who got food and drinks i said oh no drinks for me. And she took that as no food and started going to take someone else's order until i said hey i want food and she acted like i was holding her up from taking the other persons order telling them to be patient as if she needs to get over there. Never got my glass of water she was supposed to bring until i went back to the bar and paid for bottled water. Anytime i went to the bar i felt like i was burdening her lol. When i went back to order a burger after only ordering a salad prior i could only hope she wasn't mad that i was back up there. Karaoke on Thursdays happen here. A pool table. I hadn't been here in 2 yrs and would probably only come back knowing what to expect service wise

Most people contribute to a pot luck feast that spans the wide world of food, from hot dogs and chili to baked ziti, tacos, meatballs, fried chicken, Chinese food, and on and on -- including some amazing homemade clam chowder from Mike The Mailman. Bartender Natalie did an amazing job of handling the busy crowd with speed and smiles. There were a couple of other staffers on site to watch the game, and they jumped in when she needed a hand with this or that, but for the most part Natalie captained the bar single-handedly for the duration. Kudos to her. It's true, Super Bowl only comes once a year, so other game days don't have the pot luck feast -- Sugar Mill doesn't have a kitchen, though they're happy to have you bring in whatever food you like and eat it there. Food aside, the crowd and the service are always just what you want, making it the perfect place to relax into at game time as Basketball enters the home stretch and baseball steps up to bat.

I've only been a small handful of times since 2021, but was nice to come back in again on a date night. This long-standing all inclusive lgbtq+ space is celebrating their 20th Anniversary this week as well as the birthday of one of it's awesome bartenders ChrisTopher, who served us up some great drinks tonight. This dive bar meets billiard bar meet karaoke lounge (two nights a week - Sunday and Thursday) meets double patio areas and more is a neighborhood favorite. When I lived down the street it was one of my favorite places to go whether walking along Reseda Blvd up to the street entrance or down Hart St to Canby Avenue through the patio and back door/main entrance via it's shared parking lot with neighboring businesses including a large music studio in an industrial-esque neighborhood block. There's plenty of parking between the lot and along Canby without restrictions, but also metered parking on Hart St and Reseda Blvd. It's a little more than a mile up from the Metro G - Orange Line and also rideshare friendly (back entrance drop off and pick up is often best as the front door is typically closed and/or locked at times. They have restrooms for all genders, remodeled and upgraded. Tall tables inside with seating as well as bar seating on all ends of their double sided bar. Drinks are a little more than your dive club prices, but loaded and generous portions. One downside is the AC system which is not powerful at all, and with the back doors generally open letting out in contained cool air it can be humid and muggy inside. It definitely cools off at night and in cooler months. They've made a lot of updates and small renovations, but the AC not so much. They have so cool themed nights like goth night via Club Caelum, drag events, drag race viewing Fridays, go-go dancing nights, competitions, Sunday BBQ and more.
