Unfortunately my first time visit became my last visit. I will not be going back again…read more We were a party of 7. The owner brought us in to the biggest room. The room had a minimum of 9 people which we were NOT told and they charged for 8 people and that was the "discount" . I believe other rooms were available. Otherwise we would have waited or wouldn't have taken the room. Later they refunded but this experience left a sour taste in our mouth and it was just worrisome. It sounds dumb, but Please make sure to check the room prices before you're assigned a room.

I…read moreknew immediately that I wanted to host my Office Holiday Party at Venue 66, it almost felt like love at first sight. After inquiring about this venue online, I was immediately contacted by Kate Paul, who assisted me throughout the entire process of planning my event. In fact, that is an understatement because Kate did more than assist me, and I must say that I would not have been able to pull off such an amazing event without her guidance, support, and assistance. Kate was very knowledgeable about event planning, and since this was the first event that I coordinated on my own, she was thoughtful enough to give me guidance in everything from catering and bar service, to project management and décor recommendations. Kate was indeed my angel sent from the event planning gods; she was very professional, accommodating, understanding, and patient throughout the entire process. As for the venue, it was everything that I could have hoped for! It would be an honor to have the opportunity to host another event at this venue! I can honestly say that you will not regret hosting your event at Venue 66.

I called the restaurant on Monday to let them know and there was no response on the phone and on the Google maps it says that the restaurant has permanently closed. I do not live in the area so it's not that easy to just drive up there from Orange County so now I have to deal with my bank and cancel my debit card because obviously when a card has been run six times, there is something going on which is not legit. The food was OK and I'm Margarita was OK but the Billing is not OK. It seems that if this restaurant has shut down and that was the last day, someone was being shady.. one star is one star too many in my opinion.If someone gets back to me,I will remove the review. And I called again today and I actually was able to leave a message, but there was no reading for this number so I don't know if anyone's gonna receive it.

Summer is here and so is the Hollister House. And if you have a stylish teen in your household,…read morethey will love this place! Especially since a lot of what happens here is: FREE! There are FREE LIVE CONCERTS & ACTIVITIES FOR FANS OF HOLLISTER scheduled for various dates between May 23rd and August 3rd 2014..Also on site are DJs, a Juice Bar, Yoga Lessons, Beach Volleyball, Fashion Shows, Free Food & Snacks. There are games galore to play in the backyard like ping pong. Of course, in the meantime, the Hollister brand is being pimped big time, along with Abercrombie & Fitch--a Hollister corporate partner. But being close enough to the beautiful Santa Monica beach to hear the ocean cannot hurt the "Cali branding" and seems to help equate Hollister with cool , fashionable kids and happy memories of fun in the summertime. I went online to see if there were any free tickets left for a teen wanting to visit the Beach House for a show and darn it--they were all sold out and wait listing. Hollister hopefuls must be at least 14 years old and reside in the greater Los Angeles, CA. area to apply. Parental consent is required for anyone under 18 to attend performances. Photograph submissions with applications of you dressing in your best 'So Cal style' will decide whether you are emailed an eticket or not. Though the Hollister House is clearly a shill for Hollister clothing, I can't help but at least give it 4 YELP STARS for making a fun place for tweens & teens to enjoy the action.

The event was from 6:30 p.m. to 10 p.m., and using my better judgment, we took an Uber to and from the location. Arriving about a half hour before the doors opened, the line was quite long for the VIP entry, but once the doors opened, we entered in a matter of five minutes, and the festivities began. The vibe was Pop Culture with patrons of all flavors, and everyone was sporting their personal fashion statement and personality. The place was filled with the non-stop grooves played by the resident DJ, and everyone grooved to the beats as they savored the numerous delicious chef-created bites and chased them with the various whiskeys, tequila shots, cocktails, and brews available for consumption. Notable offerings: King Hawaiian - Soft Pretzel Bites Lior Hillel - Mediterranean Street Corn; and a Pilpelchuma Prawn Uyen Le BBQ Pulled Pork Banh Mi James Bailey - Smoked Pork Lettuce Wrap Javier Lopez - Yellowfin Tuna Tostada; and Compressed Pineapple Michael & Bryan Voltaggio "Voltaggio Brothers" - Wagyu Sloppy Joe; and Matcha Zeppole Rose Previte Maydan - Hummus with Roasted Lamb Shoulder Juan "Billy" Acosta - Carnitas El Momo Okay Inak "Sora Craft Kitchen" - Icli Kofta Kat Turner "Highly Likely" - Shaved Celery Salad Irene Verceles "The Surfing Fox" - Mango Pork Belly Gino Pineda "Dialog Cafe" - Miso Salmon with Miso Butter Lindsay McDonald "All About the Cinnamon" - The Big Poppa Cinnamon Roll Julia Tokarz & Gregory Lay "East Side Cheesecakes" -Cider & Silk Cheesecake Shooter Michel Reed "Poppy & Seed" - Smoked Beef Short Rib Pastrami David Kuo "Fatty Mart" - Chili Wontons; and Pork & Shrimp Dumplings Beverages provided by: Coke, Santa Cruz Mountains vineyard, Germain/Robin Distillery, Argonaut Brandy, Icelandic, Bernardus Winery, Pinhook Distillery, Cyrus Noble Bourdon Whiskey, Knob Creek, Frey Ranch, Peroni Beer, Magna Carta Winery, Lerner Project Winery, Alto Canto Tequila, Coyote Chief Winery, The Vice Winery, Grillin' Time Cocktails, and Brushwood Distillery In addition, lots of swag and discount cards were distributed. Items such as gift bags, bottle openers, pins, shot glasses, canned beverage covers, ballpoint pens, bottle sauces, t-shirts, and even a piercing studio in the VIP area! During the evening, the music played, wine, beer, and cocktails flowed, and the food was abundant. Everyone in attendance was in great spirits, friendly, and on their best behavior. I will definitely attend the coming year.
