Hi, I was just kicked out of tonight's pokemon event…read morebecause a couple who was white and asian cut me in line and when I confronted them about it, the asian one got in my face and i called him an "asian bitch", he then complained to me to the black security guard and the security guard at first came up to me and asked me to stay away from them which i agreed to. all was cool until the asian guy went back to the black security guard and said he wasn't satisfied until i was kicked out. i was kicked out. that was not fair and i posted on my socials about it. i would like this rectified. i would like to be compensated for this in some way and the security guard to be reprimanded and taught how to handle situations like this in the future. please advise how you plan on handling this situation. Thanks, Jeremiah

The appeal of this place is not offset by the negatives…read more It's really marketed as more of an exclusive experience. Kind of like a speakeasy. The service is a one out of five for sure. We had two separate servers because one went home during the middle of our dinner and both were equally horrible. Not even exaggerating when I say we waited at least 15 minutes after we asked for the check and there were probably only 10 tables in the entire restaurant. And we had to call her back over to ask for a second time. SMH. The food although flavorful was so ridiculously priced it was not even funny. I got a "ribeye ". Was literally eight thin slices of steak, like 1" x 1" size for $42! No, I will not be coming back here for so many reasons. The view is great. Castaways is definitely not what it used to be in the way of quality but at least you get more and you get the view. But definitely not worth it going to this place. It was quite a frustrating evening. Also, if you do decide to go here, just bring a coat when it's a little bit cooler in the evenings cause it does get cold up here and getting the staff to manage the heaters correctly is a whole other frustration. Oh, and valet is your only option for parking up here. It's kind of crazy because a few years ago you could just go park in the lot or the garage that's available there but now they're charging you $11 and it's chaos. I will say that the view up here is great though so if you're willing to forgo all of that for a view for like a one time date or something like that, it might be worth it

Definitively hidden in plain sight, but if you spot it or hear about it (say... from Yelp), you…read moreshould stop and have some libations. I wouldn't use the term dive bar here because it's more classy and well put together to be the traditional visage of 'dive bar'; despite being hidden in plain site. Also, the menu is vastly different than any dive bar. The place has a great vibe, vintage-modern classic theme, great lighting scheme, nice patio space, and just has a great hangout vibe. The service I've received has been impeccable. ** CASH ONLY is really my only knock on it. I've never carried much cash since the advent of plastic pay and the world is increasingly cashless. So, your experience will be limited by the cash available in your pocket.

Perfectly creamy, balanced, and dangerously drinkable. One sip and you're instantly on vacation. The manager Erin is an absolute gem.

Also, shoutout to Topher, a truly awesome bartender! If you're looking for a spot with killer cocktails, tropical vibes, and top-tier service, this place is a must. Can't recommend it enough.

The drinks are okay. They lean on the sweeter side, so it is the kind of place where you might stop in for a sugary cocktail rather than something particularly memorable. Overall it is a decent place to meet up with friends for a quick snack and a drink, but it is probably not somewhere I would go out of my way to make the main destination for the night. Still a nice little spot if you happen to be nearby and want a casual place to hang out for a bit.

We were looking for a place to continue drinking and wanted to dance a…read morelittle, we weren't dressed up or anything so we were looking for a laidback place; a waiter at that restaurant suggested this place. Obviously, I looked it up on yelp just to make sure it was worth it or at least to make sure it wasn't dangerous, when we saw it didn't have any reviews we decided to give it a try. We were treated like ROYALTY from the start. People constantly checking in on us to make sure we had enough drinks or if we needed anything else. I was a little hesitant to leave my purse at that table but I was reassured by one of the people (I think he was the owner) that I had nothing to worry about; so I did just that. I danced the nice away without worrying about anything. The place is a little small and it wasn't that full on a Saturday, which can be because they just opened up. They play reggaetón, salsa, cumbias, rock en español, etc. Honestly give it a try, this place is super fun! I'm planning on going back really soon!

The place is definitely hidden in plain sight and while they have a decent sized sign, it kind of gets lost in the surrounding visual, but since I was slowing down, I was able to see it and pull into the parking lot. Definitely the quintessential 'hole in the wall' place in visual and vibe. For a Sunday first NFL game of the day it was a very light crowd so I didn't stay much longer than one beer, but I can definitely see it having a local following of the blue collar businesses that are plentiful in the area. I will probably stop back one night to see how that timing changes 'the scene'.

I was incredibly…read moreexcited for my first time to dance at this club, as I've been told this is a great place to dance on Fridays & Saturdays after moving here in November. I introduced myself to 3 completely separate friend groups, 2 outside at the patio and 1 inside, who all told me that this bar was not a place for people like me and that I needed to leave. This was March 14, 2026. Coming from Houston, and being used to the Latino bars there, and working in them, I did not expect to be treated like I was not welcome in Los Angeles. To be clear, the only thing asked was "I've never been here before. What's your name and is there anything I should know about the atmosphere?". I was met with so much hostility, I recommend the bar close permanently. If you cannot control your clientele's hated, you deserve to shutter. Never in my life have I felt unsafe in a queer bar, attacked by my own people, until tonight. I highly suggest anywhere but here.

I've been hesitant because it is in a trickier area, but I had no issues pulling in or parking! They have a few spots in the front, but otherwise I'm sure there is parking around the neighborhood. You walk inside to order and it is not a fancy looking place, but the people cooking the meat definitely know what they're doing!! It felt like an authentic Texas bbq spot. I didn't want the frills, I just wanted good food and that's what I got. I sat at a little table outside which was perfectly pleasant! The road wasn't too loud or anything. But really, the sandwich was SO good. I doused it in the spicy bbq and added the pickles and coleslaw and I ate the WHOLE thing. I shouldn't have. But it was great!! I want to come back and try their other bbq meats and sides!! I loved the pulled pork sandwich and would recommend sharing it if you do order it. Yum!! The service was great, too!!

The accurate rain forecast changed our Sunday adventuring plans, but considering the food we were…read moregoing to get into, BBQ felt like a sensible substitute. We hadn't visited since February, 2020. Before the pandemic might as well have been 10 years ago, if the world shut down 6 years ago. We were overdue for a followup visit. Judging by how the food went down, we were sore for it. We ordered the Big Tex: four meats and four sides - tri-tip, brisket, pulled pork and links; kale greens, bbq beans, mac and cheese and fries. We opted for the cornbread in the roll slot. It should be the top meats in your order, by premium scale and availability, but more often than they should be, the brisket/tri-tip selections are, 90%, obligatory orders. I think I have a love/hate relationship with the way LA treats the pepperoni pizza of bbq meats. Swinging Door broke us off proper though. Not too fatty. Great tenderism. And the accompanying sauce complemented the smoked all stars, rather than compensated for lack of flavor. Didn't stop me from loving their Whiskey bbq sauce though. The beans were a true bbq side, swimming in a mild sauce and containing lovely chunks of link. And the kale greens - sheesh - I think they might've switched to kale since our first visit. An effective exercise in alternative ruffage that holds seasoning and jucies for a similar bbq/soulfoud bite. We live further away now. Took the food to go, to prevent the intermittent rain from foiling more of our plans. It traveled well. And since I'm using our leftover bbq sauce on every other meal I cook, I'd say we successfully made do with our lunch substitute.
