Wonderful hospitality and great vibes. Convenient to many event locations. Drinks were amazing!

The best and with waiting for. I enjoyed my food. Drinks and the atmosphere. I met the owner and he sung to me on my birthday. I was so impressed with him and the service. I would definitely come back again and highly recommend it to family and friends. read more

The food is amazing. The staff was top tier from the moment we walked in the door. I highly recommend this spot. I will definitely be back. The general manager Phil is the best. So glad to have experienced 1888 while it's still fairly new. Looking forward to creating memories here. The vibe is everything. read more

Went there and they were so nice. It is inside of Intuit The food was even better. It was really good. The salad was really good. The devdsd. I'll be back for the Wagyu burger. The chicken was good, the chrispy chick I thought was the best thing on the menu. We also ordered the steak but that short rib But the service is really, really good. This place is really good, five stars all the way around. read more

Lounge 1888 is a sports lounge, they have plenty of TV's playing sports. If you don't see the game you want you can request that they change one of the TV's. I had the sliders (comes with a salad or fries) and pizza. Both were good, I especially liked the sliders. They were the smallest sliders I've seen in my life but they were so good. Everyone at the table liked their food, I think the most unflavored food was the artichoke dip. The food didn't take long to come out. They had music playing and someone playing the saxophone at times. The manager took us to see the speakeasy where it will eventually have membership club access only. Free parking for now across the street, if you park on the 2nd floor you can walk across the bridge to get to the restaurant. There's security at the bridge entrance, so you will feel safe. read more

My friends and I came here last night to celebrate a birthday. Initially, we were having a great experience, ordered a couple appetizers and some drinks. One of our friends had noticed that in his Old Fashioned there was a gnat. We notified a server and a replacement drink was brought over. This bothered us all a little but...we could look past it. We enjoyed our appetizers. We ordered the Spinach Dip and the Burrata & Heirloom Tomato Salad. 7/10 Then it was time for our food....... My husband ordered the Scottish Salmon, which upon arrival looked delicious.....but ended up being completely raw. He eventually called over a server to let them know and the server responded by saying "oh you wanted it well done". Mind you - have you ever heard anyone ask how you want your salmon cooked other than blackened, poached, or grilled? They ended up taking it back to the kitchen saying they were going to bring a new plate out....went it came back it was clear that it had just been reheated. You know how mashed potatoes look when they've been microwaved.... I ordered the Steak & Frites which looked so good when it came out too! Now...the Garlic Parmesan fries 9/10. When it came to the steak...it had a peppercorn sauce on top of it which was extremely salty when I first tried it. I started to eat the steak, which I ordered Medium, and noticed it did look a bit pink but I didn't mind. As I kept eating I noticed each piece was cold. One of my friends also noticed how rare the steak look so we turned our flash lights on (since it was dark dimmed lighting inside) and the steak was ALSO RAW!!! Like black and blue. They ended up taking the steak off of our tab but we all could not get over this. read more

Perfect place to dine before a concert! Came before Kehlani's concert and had a great time. We order some drinks including a Mai tai, cucumber spritz and a cucumber martini. All of them were delicious and balanced. I ordered the salmon plate and opted for salad vs grilled veggies and requested fries vs mashed potatoes. The salad was fresh and had tomatoes but my fries were a bit stale. The salmon was juicy but a bit salty. Service was fast and there was great music to vibe to. read more

We found this spot as we were walking to the Sofi stadium and decided to stop afterwards for some food and drinks! It's a cute spot and definitely in a convenient location for the events. Service was OK. Our waiter came to our table maybe 3 times. We ordered appetizers and he disappeared. We got 1 entree order in and by the time he came back, we didn't even want to order dinner because service had gone downhill and we knew we wouldn't get our food anytime soon. Parking in the area can be tricky on game days, but luckily we walked from our hotel. I'd recommend giving it a try if you're in the area. Food: Chicken linguini: (3/5) It looked and smelled great, but definitely needed salt or seasoning. The chicken was also extremely dry. Fried chicken: (5/5) Great crunch and flavor! The dipping sauce was not good. Tuna wonton: (4/5) These were pretty good! Little too much rice in comparison to the tuna on it, but overall not bad! I'd order again. read more

Late review- My husband and I checked out Lounge 1888 after a post randomly popped up on my Instagram. Instagram got me again. We went on a Thursday evening and made reservations, although I don't think we really needed them because there were only a few people inside. They had live music, a saxophonist, which I believe they have every Thursday. Definitely a nice touch and added to the whole vibe. We were greeted by Sammie, who took great care of us throughout the evening and made sure we were good. For food, my husband ordered the BBQ Braised Short Rib Pizza ($22), and I ordered the Wagyu Sliders ($22) with a side of fries ($10). My sliders were on the drier side, even though I asked for them to be cooked medium. They weren't bad, just a little too dry for me. BUT THAT PIZZA?!? Off. The. Chain. All the flavors paired so well together. I definitely had a little food envy and should've ordered what my husband ordered. For cocktails, we ordered the Basil Hayden Old Fashioned ($21) and Cucumber Margarita ($20). One thing I would suggest is adding descriptions to the cocktail menu. There really isn't any information about what's in each drink, so we had no idea what some of the cocktails actually were based on the names alone. Sammie also gave us a tour of their speakeasy/private room, which looks like a really nice space to host a private gathering or celebration. Overall, Lounge 1888 has a nice ambiance, good service, good food and drinks, and live music. I'll definitely be back. Parking is available in the structure off Prairie, between 102nd and Century. read more

Went again, still a spot I'd recommend. The reason I gave 4 stars is we were told they had a spot for us to sit at the bar if we didn't want to wait for a table. We were cool with it. They sat us at section of the bar that hadn't been wiped down or cleaned yet. I had the half chicken entree which was flavorful and filling (definitely shareable). The underside of the chicken had a pretty good layer of fatty skin that I didn't find appetizing. But would I order it again? Yes lol. Vibe was still nice, busy, full likely due to the concert happening that evening. read more

Today, the Men of Leisure had a delightful lunch at the 18888 Lounge, a new hotspot on the Intuit Dome campus in Inglewood, CA. This Black-owned restaurant has been open for about five weeks now. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring that we had everything we needed. Phil, the General Manager, personally came to our table to introduce himself and even gave us a tour of the speakeasy in the back of the restaurant. He shared some of his thoughts and future plans for the restaurant, which was truly impressive. The food was absolutely delicious. The location is great, and the overall experience was fantastic. I highly recommend the 18888 Lounge. They also have brunch on Saturdays and Sundays. read more

This past Saturday, my friend, my daughter, and I decided to try Lounge 1888 for lunch while we were shopping. I called ahead to ask if 16-year-olds were allowed, and the gentleman who answered was pleasant and helpful. Unfortunately, the experience after we arrived was very different. The parking staff was friendly, and the restaurant validated parking. When we entered, we waited at the host stand for the couple ahead of us to be helped. After they were assisted, the host took a phone call. We waited for him to finish, and then he began using his tablet while we stood there waiting. After my friend commented about the wait, he finally asked if we needed help. He had apparently thought we were with the couple before us. We told him we wanted a table. He rudely asked if we had a reservation. We said no because we were not aware reservations were required. He told us that without a reservation, we would have to sit outside. He then moved tables from a shaded area into direct sunlight where there were no umbrellas. I asked if he could move the table back into the shade because we did not want to sit in direct sunlight. He seemed irritated and initially looked like he might walk away, but eventually moved the table back. We sat down and waited for our server. She greeted us quickly, so we thought things would improve. Unfortunately, they did not. We ordered food, drinks, and two flights of mimosas. We waited over an hour with empty water glasses and no food. The server would occasionally come by and blame the delay on the bartender or kitchen. Meanwhile, we could see other tables receiving their food. When our food finally arrived, it was brought by other staff members, and we still had not received the two flights. The food was cold, as if it had never been properly heated. We flagged down the server and asked her to cancel the drinks because we wanted to leave. We also told her the food was cold. After another explanation, we asked to speak with the manager. The manager was pleasant and genuinely tried to fix the situation. We explained everything, including the long wait, cold food, and missing drinks. He offered us an appetizer and brought out spicy tuna wonton cups. They were not spicy, and only I tried them because my friend and daughter did not find them appealing. He also brought the two flights of mimosas. One was served in the signature glasses, while the other was served in a medium-sized shot glass. My friend said she could taste the alcohol in hers, but I did not taste or feel any alcohol in mine. I rarely drink, so I would have noticed. It honestly seemed like my flight contained little to no alcohol. The replacement food eventually arrived. It was still not hot, only lukewarm, but it was more edible than the first order. We barely saw our server after that. As we were preparing to order dessert, we waited again. When she finally came, she brought the receipt. We asked for the bread pudding, but she returned and said it was too late to order it. A good server would have let us know that the brunch special or kitchen service was ending soon and given us an opportunity to order dessert. We arrived around 2:00 p.m. and did not leave until approximately 4:50 p.m.--nearly three hours for lunch. I am giving Lounge 1888 three stars mainly because the manager had a great personality and made an effort to correct the situation. I appreciated his professionalism and willingness to listen. However, the cold food, lukewarm replacement food, questionable mimosa flight, long wait, and poor service made it difficult to give a higher rating. I understand the restaurant may be newly opened and may still be experiencing growing pains. Hopefully, things improve with better staffing, training, and communication between the kitchen and servers. A food runner could also help. Most importantly, the host is the first point of contact and sets the tone for the entire experience. Unfortunately, our interaction with him started the visit on a negative note. I am sharing this as constructive feedback. The manager showed that he cared about the customer experience, and hopefully the restaurant uses this feedback to improve.. read more

Lounge 1888 was better than I even expected!!! The food, service and atmosphere were amazing! We stopped by before our concert and although it was busy our waiter was attentive , fun, and gave great recommendations! The cucumber martini was sweet and refreshing and the dirty martini gave exactly what it was suppose to give, our sliders and pizza tasted great too! It can't wait to go back, I feel like it will be real soon! read more

Amazing vibe, delicious food and great service! We were invited by a friend who had a brunch there and it was just fantastic, the DJ played great music and the staff was really attentive to everyone.

Found a gem of an establishment in Lounge 1888! I'm glad I found this restaurant/bar/speakeasy adjacent to all of the Inglewood sporting venues. Rodi, Sara, and Julio made my visit well worth my time and money in the way that they were warm, upbeat, and friendly. The sliders and fries were on point. Sliders were juicy and flavorful thanks to Lawrence the chef! Sebastian is the bar manager and is doing all that he can to make Lounge 1888 worth it! I can't wait until the next time. read more

I would suggest the Prime Dip, so good! I also got a lunch Martini with it. Nothing says day drinking like a cucumber martini. Service was elevated and on point. I'm never going into Inglewood without stopping here too. Might even get a membership to their members only lounge in the back. Talk about impressive! read more

If I could give a half star I would give this a 3.5. Went here before a concert. The staff was super friendly, we were pleased. We were just a little disappointed in the food. It was just ok, not flavorful. We tried the steak, it was tender at least, just not flavorful and the fries were ok. We also tried the chicken it was definitely crispy and tender, it just wasn't flavorful. The spinach and artichoke dip was pretty good. My sister ordered a Mai Tai it was good and I tried a zombie that was ok. If I return I'll try the pizza. Again if I could give a half star I would give 3.5. I would say it's worth a try, other reviews mention how flavorful the dishes were, it could have just been an unflavorful day. read more

If I could give Lounge 1888 ten s, I would. From the moment we walked in, the service was on point and we felt right at home, and Phil knows exactly how to liven things up. I had the roasted chicken with mashed potatoes and it was delicious - the chicken was hot, the veggies were crisp, and the gravy... the gravy was amazing. If you want great food, a fun vibe, and people who actually take care of you, this is your spot. read more

Lounge 1888 is nestled right inside the Intuit Dome campus, just down the street from Hollywood Park and a stone's throw from the Kia Forum and SoFi Stadium. As soon as I walked in, I knew I was going to have a great time. The establishment offers a modern, luxurious experience that flawlessly bridges the gap between upscale dining and high-octane stadium energy. Instead of a typical sports bar vibe, Lounge 1888 features a sleek, unique design complete with polished black marble, glowing brass accents, and a massive terrazzo bar. Plus, they still provide multiple high-definition TVs, which is essential for game day! The food is just as amazing, featuring a concise yet versatile menu--the 1888 burger, truffle fries and Century prime dip are my absolute go-tos. The bar also boasts an incredible selection of cans, bottles, drafts, wine, and cocktails with top shelf selections. What truly puts this place over the top, though, is the service. The entire staff was incredibly pleasant and courteous. I am big on customer service, and it is a non-negotiable for me. Phil and Sebastian, this one is for you--thank you for the amazing hospitality! I can't thank you enough for making my first visit so memorable. Overall, Lounge 1888 has everything you need for a fantastic night out. If you're looking for premium experience, this is the place for you. read more

I made a reservation for the Jhene Aiko listening party. I ended up being an hr late due to traffic so I had to accept my fate of not being able to get a table. They have a rule that you can order food unless you have a table which kind of sucks for this type of event but I understand.. I went to go get a drink at the bar & mentioned to them how hungry I was & one of the staff, Bry, was able to fit me in between his next guest so that I could order something to eat. So nice of him cause i was starvin the food was great! The drinks were tasty but also strong. All the staff I interacted with were nice. The vibes were there for sure... I even checked out the speakeasy section in the back. Definitely have to make a res there for a date night. Overall 10/10 experience. read more

Amazing experience! My first time visiting this venue...on a Thursday night...great vibe, great food and excellent service. Manager Phil took care of us...checked to see that we were comfortable and escorted us to take a glimpse of the back area. Such a great addition to the City of Inglewood!!! This place will last! It has all of the elements of a successful venue. Welcome to Inglewood 1888!!! read more

The service, food and ambiance was a 10/10 top notch!!! The GM Phill was the man of the night greeting every guest with warm welcomes and showing true leadership.

Overall I highly recommend Lounge 1888 and we will be going back the staff from GM PHILL to Jayla and the rest of the crew will make sure you have a great time with smiles and laughter like your at a family function. read more

I went here for the first time with my brother and relatives from out of town after a Dodgers game. The food was delicious. I had the vegan portobello mushrooms and they were amazing.

Wow! This place truly stands out. From the ambiance and service to the food and drinks, everything exceeded my expectations. The space is clean, elevated, and beautifully decorated, creating such a welcoming atmosphere. When I visited, they even had a saxophone player performing, which was an incredible touch and made the experience feel extra special. The GM and his wife were absolutely lovely, as was the bar manager. Everyone I encountered was genuinely warm, personable, and attentive. The staff deserves huge kudos for making me feel so welcomed and well taken care of throughout my visit. I enjoyed the experience so much that I actually came back for both lunch and dinner on the same day--which says a lot! From start to finish, this was an outstanding experience, and I can't wait to return. read more

Truly excellent from start to finish. Went here last night with my sister before an event at The Forum. It was pretty dead when we got there but was packed when we left. Our server was Josephina (sp?) was perfectly attentive and friendly. She gave great drink recommendations that weren't even on the menu. Who I believe to be the manager was going around checking on tables. The steak and frites was so good we got 2! Truffle deviled eggs and burrata tomato salad were SO GOOD. We were hesitant to try what we thought was the random restaurant nextdoor to our hotel but it actually was one of the highlights of our night. They said they had only been open about a month or so but they've seen to really have it together. VIBES 10/10, will definitely be back if we go to another Forum event! read more

First of all, this place is beautiful. The space is large so the tables aren't all schmushed together. Second, the service is superb. I was met with "Welcome Home" and a huge smile.

I had the Rosemary chicken and a friend had a pepperoni pizza without cheese. The flavor and the manner in which they were prepared was excellent. Not over salty, just full of flavor.
