Yeah I said it just 2 stars. Went this last Saturday to the show. Requirements were formal attire men in dress shirts ties or bow ties. We paid $260 for a 4 person table. Got seated on the top floor with these huge disco balls blocking our view 50% of the time. We had to leave our table and for a full view go downstairs for the show. I'll leave that there. Women dressed in formal wear. Yes I wore my heels and brushed off some dust ;) We got there thinking there was going to have at least an appetizer menu. We had to order $60 per person so we thought with appetizers it could happen easy. Well when we saw the menu: charcuterie board, pita chips with hummus, pizza. Ok we ordered the board and pita. What we got was white $.99 paper plates with down cheese, nuts, apricots. Ridiculous $22 for a paper plate. The pita chips came with no hummus in a paper boat they were all crumbs. I can't believe we paid so much money to dress up, get a $260 table for paper plates with no utensils, no hummus. Ordering 2 sets of these because we didn't want to get sick from drinking on an empty stomach. I believe we ordered 4 drinks each by the nights end (cups were small too) our bill came out to $413! We asked for a receipt to which the waitress stated she couldn't get us. So the night came out to close to $650! And we were served on paper plates, no meal. It's a rip off. The show was nice but we had to be walking around to actually see it. Never doing this again!

Mambo Craze was an absolute delight from start to finish. The performers brought incredible energy to the stage, and my friends and I loved it. Anyone looking for a night of vibrant performances and classic cabaret/burlesque flair will absolutely enjoy this show.

My friends and I had blast this past Saturday night "Loved " Mambo Craze event , it was a perfect classy/ritzy night out with friends, we enjoyed the yummy drinks , salsa class, Latin music, social dancing and the icing on the cake was the amazing line up of performers . It was such an enjoyable night.

Divine beings being fabulous and emulsifying the setting of opulence.

Mambo Craze Cabaret offers the most opulent, transcendental experience in showcasing top quality acts from burlesque, to cabaret, to both combined, to acrobatics, to live music that enamours us all into a romantic free flowing dance. One of the greatest entertainment experiences you will ever have. After one experience I must say I am hooked. Such an honour to be a part of the mambo craze family.

Meeting and chatting with MC Kenzie Anne.

Awesome event from beginning to end. As we entered it felt old timey. It was a great set up. The performances could be seen from any angle and we took advantage of that. We moved around the venue and had a great view. The MC Kenzie Anne was great. Every performer out did themselves. We really enjoyed the birthday cake surprise dancer. Now I know where I'll have my birthday next time. The band and DJ did an awesome job. Bar service was quick and easy. Ambiance was very welcoming and classy.

Absolutely love and recommend this event that transports you to the Cabaret era with live music and performances. Makes for a fun night of salsa dancing and entertainment. Be on the lookout they host this event once a month. Don't miss out!

The Mambo Craze event is unlike any other show in LA. If you have the opportunity to see it, you have to! Wear your gown or tux because when you walk in the door you will be transported back in time to the Prohibition days of flapper girls and pinups. At this modern day speakeasy, you'll see the most beautiful and talented performers strut their stuff cabaret-style, take a swim in a martini glass, and get it on to the saxophone. In between majestic performers, a live band is taking down the house while you sip on your old fashion or dance samba on the main dance floor. We attended as a group of ladies, no regrets as this was an unforgettable experience! I would recommend this uniquely spectacular monthly show to anyone looking for a classy good time.

We decided to stop by La Cita Bar after dinner tonight because we were already in downtown Los…read moreAngeles and wanted to have a few drinks afterward. I've heard of La Cita for years, and this is definitely one of those places that has been around for a while and has that classic Downtown LA bar feel. There was a little bit of a line when we arrived, but it moved pretty quickly, so we didn't have to wait too long to get inside. Tonight there was a $15 cover charge. Once we got in, we went straight for some drinks and had a beer and a couple of cocktails. The bar was pretty busy, and it did take a little while for us to get our drinks, but we eventually got them. The DJ was playing a lot of good Spanish music, which really added to the atmosphere and made it a fun place to hang out and have drinks. One thing I thought was really cool was that they had a photo booth inside. I wasn't expecting that, and it was a fun little extra. They also have an outdoor bar area, which was nice because it gives you another place to hang out and take a break from the crowd. Overall, La Cita has that typical Downtown LA bar vibe busy, energetic, casual, and definitely geared toward having drinks, listening to music, and hanging out with friends. If you're already downtown and looking for a place to have some drinks and enjoy Spanish music, it's definitely worth checking out. We had a good time stopping in after dinner!l.

We just stopped in for a quick drink early evening, so there weren't many people there yet. My…read morefriend wanted to check the place out. It looks like a fun place to hang out, dance, and listen to live bands if that's your thing. There is a tiny stage area that was sectioned off, and I imagine the place easily gets packed. The wood interiors have seen better days, and the seating is somewhat sparse to make room for a larger dance area. It looks like the type of place that gets stuffy quickly as there aren't any windows from what I recall. They have a patio, but we didn't make it out there. There were a couple of TVs with the World Cup on at the time, but I'm not sure if they keep sports on the screens all the time. Be ready to have your ID checked at the door.

Sneakers r okay! Collard shirt i was told when i called but i dont see everyone wearing one lol. Main floor is hiphop edm old school a little spanish top40!. Basement is spanish, merengue banda bachata salsa reggaeton etc etc. Top is edm house electronic. The music overall is really good! Sometimes they slack, esp on fridays!! They open up the floors one by one for w/e foolish reason lol. I hateeee that. It gets really hot in there and a little too crowded on saturdays. Fridays much more open space, and i love that!. The crowd be dancing. Its a decent vibe. People are a lil to themselves and their circle (typical LA)at times but not too bad. Stay clear of security and bottle service girls, or anyone actually, ppl will push tf out of you... i just stop dancing when whoever starts walking towards me and stare at them . The crowd is pretty consistent.. the girl to boy ratio is decent. A lot of people b walking around and its so annoying. Theres a time and place bro. MORE DANCING AND LESS WALKING PLEASE. theres lines to go to another floor which is annoying af. Those lines take up mad space on the middle main floor. I Didnt drink. Fridays and saturdays are really have two different vibes.. Theres a few seats around but dont count on it. Unless u buy a table of course. This club picks up fast by the way! Call them for questions and check their website. They check ID. Pretty sure you have to be 21. their website says there is parking behind the building but idk. Parking places around are $15. 15 mins waiting on line usually if u dont come late. Cash or credit good here. This is lowkey my spot lol. Been here several times since i found this place may 2022. I love the music here. WHEN THEYRE NOT SLACKING AND WALKING AWAY FROM DJ'n & talking to friends bs'n. AND WHEN THEYRE ACTUALLY ENGAGED WITH THE CROWD, making ppl move they body. Ayo thanks for playing the weeknd blinding lights ... XOTWOD! the main floor music is better on saturday. The top floor music is better on friday lol. Consistently. The basement is always lit. Again, things could b hit or miss but nonetheless, this spot, club mayan, arena ktown, doesnt fail me and they all a different vibe. Wonder what will be next haha

And according to many reels and mouths Kiss Kiss Bang Bang offers a hot-tiered LA-club experience. The kind of experience that folks from farmlands read about, and dream about attending. And here I am walking into a K-town bop bop experience, ready to do the monster mash, all the while knowing that these kinds of nights are not only magical because fairies and witches swirl in covens all around but because they are liberating at their (rotten) core. The night I went to Kiss Kiss Bang Bang they were having a Halloween party, and of course this fact amped the evening to a costume party that upheld the spirit of all Hallow's eve, in all its fantasy and glittery potential. The evening reached, my personal fever-pitch, when the dance floor was full and all around was a series of characters all connected by a simple yet powerful fact: we were all conjuring a good time, for ourselves, and others. I approached a guy dressed as Miguel from Coco. I wanted to duet with him, Ay mi amor, Ay mi amor, creo que piensas con los pies, but he did not know the words. I ran into a Frank Sinastra costume that did not know how to sing the songs of old blue eyes himself. It was a moment of character betrayal. There was a committed person who wore a blow up Remi from Ratouille costume. Seeing him jump up and down, mildly, in the dance floor produce a smile within me that I am sure was similar insde the chest of many of the party goers. I applaud his presence because he was one welcomed rat. As I looked at the brimming dance floor I was able to point to Armando and show him Waldo. Where was Waldo was not a question that plagued me on this evening. There was a lot fairies that night. I did not get to tell the girl who wore her fairy cosgtume the best, simply because it was elegant, and restrained but still I saw a woman-fairy hybrid that sparked within me a belief that Avalon had let its resident out for a night. A member of Slytherin, a French clown, Edward and Jake, staff of Jurrasaic park, and many others made the dance floor a scene from a costume ball, appropriate, for Ktown. That kind of feeling sticks because it was spooky fun that was sincere and effortless, the party came to the room and the room honored it, like a trick or treat pact. The room itself, with its central disco ball, felt like the 70s had reached the late 2020s. No one neeeded bell bottoms (although on this night they were allowed) beacuse the disco-fever feeling was an inspiration not the blood of the joint. One could not zone off in this room, the lights kept one's eye open wide. An AMF was 30 dollars. That was freightening too. The flavor of the place belongs to the young, in literal terms, or the young at heart. Cause everyone deserves to party, at whatever stage of life they are at. Especially on a night where the veil of the iiving and the dead lowers and the spirit makes us move together in step, like the zombies from Thriller. And yes, Michael Jackson was there too!

Kiss kiss bang bang was such a fun time. I love the decor, vibes, and general ambiance. This is a…read moregreat place to go dancing.
