Jeff B.

(Shopped 01/13/16 W @ 5:00pm): I'd buy all the liquor in this joint if any of these Powerball tickets paid off! The chance to win over one billion dollars brought me to Mikron Liquor as I was on my way home from working at a nearby property. Truth-be-told, if it weren't for proximity and the want of enough money which I could then fill a vault, dive deep into it, swim around, and then let it fall upon my head, I really didn't have any other reason to have stopped. Having said that, was this place worthwhile to ever stop in again unless by sheer happenstance!?: Powerball Tickets ($2.00 x 3) - What...we can all dream, right!? Needless to say, I was still leading the same hum-drum life but $6.00 lighter in the pocket! http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=wwXBTB63rFbA6XAor-YqYw&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw Service - There really were only a few of us patrons and no surprise we were all degenerate gamblers who hoped to hit the jackpot! Two Asian men worked behind the counter but only one of them was actually helping customers while the other just stood around at arm's length and looked dumbfounded...or drunk! Whatever, I got my Quick Picks scanned in, my cash money taken, and that was that. Primitive grunts was the extend of anything considered a conversation. Parking (Free) - They shared a small private parking lot with a handful of other businesses within the outdoor strip mall they were located in. Otherwise, there was plenty of free non-metered parking along the main drag of Siiver Lake Blvd. as well as nearby mostly residential side streets. Atmosphere, décor, ambience - Your stereotypical off-the-beaten-path liquor store with the requisite amount and selection of various alcoholic beverages (surprisingly good, actually!), the usual assortment of candy, packaged snacks, stationery, toiletries, etc., all crammed onto shelves as you walked nearly sideways down each narrow aisle. The walls and windows were haphazardly covered with promotional alcohol posters which added to the grittiness of this place. Mostly electric ceiling lighting filled this lair while natural lighting was able to creep through the front opened door. I noticed at least one TV at the very front counter but no background music. http://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=7u9XSn6KKsMbQGQf74oavA&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw Attire - Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. Overall, I'm sure Mikron Liquor was fine for those who lived in the neighborhood when they needed to grab something quick, but there was no way I was going out of my way to come here unless for an emergency. There was no character, charisma, or charm. Seriously...this place was what it was an nothing more to me. BUT...if I had won any amount of money from my Powerball tickets, I'm sure my tune might be a bit more favorable. Of course, prices were generally higher than any grocery stores, but that's the price you paid for convenience, I found decent value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $6.00; no tip required). And, although lottery tickets can only be purchased with cash, they accepted my credit card of choice...AMEX! 2.5 STARS

The bottle I received the size that I ordered, not the bigger one. They charged be an add of $3 for no reason. Delivery

Ordered on Ubereats. They adjusted my order by adding an extra charge of $3 stating that I requested a bigger bottle of wine..... I never did. But I decided okay, may be they don't have the regular bottle and gonna send me a bigger one( which I don't know if it even exists, unless it's a cheaper wine from the grocery store ). Nope, received the same size of the wine bottle as I originally ordered. I tried to call them, they never picked up (5 times). I couldn't even say "no" on the app or even agree/ disagree on the price, because they did it when they sent the drive off . I contacted ubereats, but all I get is "we understand your frustration and we will the store know to prevent the future blah blah". So this place can adjust your order however they want and there is nothing you can do about it. I know it's just $3, but seriously you can't just change the price a very last minute and claim, that I requested a bigger bottle. + deliver the same size ( regular size of the wine bottle ). Next time, they can add up a $100 and there is nothing you can do about it. Do not order from this place, unless you want to be fooled. P. S. In case you are wondering if I left tips for the driver , yes I did, but it shows as a septet as charge, when you pay with "venmo" app.

Mikron Liquor always good stuff

Great customer service, a reliable assortment of odd goods for any last-minute store venture. Above and beyond for a local liquor store.

It's expensive and they add a debit card fee without telling you of 50c no matter what the total amount is.

One of the best liquor shops in LA because they have so many top shelf items, large selection, &…read moreit's reasonably priced. I'm glad this is so local to me, even if it wasn't I would come back here because THEY HAVE EVERYTHING... from wine to beers. To all sorts of specialty liquor as well(: Pro Tip: Browse the Harry Potter wall of liquor and KNOW what you want BEFORE you get in line!(: Guys are pretty friendly and prompt with service here I'm not sure why some people had issues? I usually do browse what I want BEFORE getting in line to not hold anyone up as the lines can get REALLY LONG during the end of the week at night. So maybe that's why some people had issues? Love the Harry Potter bookshelf wall with service Rollie ladder of top shelf liquor it's a whole mood. Modern and clean vibes here and the exterior is cool too as it's huge pieces of glass. It looks cool and nice at night especially! Place is packed to the brim on Fridays, Saturdays, and holidays.

UPDATE: I am updating my rating to 3 stars purely based on how management handled my situation…read more Shortly after my initial negative experience, Amar reached out to me directly. He was highly professional, apologized for the unacceptable service, assured me he had spoken to the staff so it wouldn't happen again, and went out of his way to completely cover the cost of my order. It takes a lot for a business to own their mistakes and make it right, and I really appreciate that ownership actually cares about their customers. ORIGINAL EXPERIENCE: Do not order delivery directly from their website. I originally placed an order online for a couple beers and two bottles of liquor, and despite living only 2.8 miles away, I was called by an employee named Angelo who told me it would take 4 hours to deliver. When I expressed frustration, he offered zero compensation or alternative solutions. He claimed there was "no manager" to speak to, and told me to just go use DoorDash or Grubhub instead because nobody wanted to drive a moped less than 3 miles. It is incredibly frustrating when a business takes your money for an advertised service, refuses to fulfill it, and then tells you to go pay extra fees on a third-party app. Overall, I'm giving 3 stars because Amar's excellent response and accountability balanced out Angelo's initial terrible service.

We accidentally discovered this gem while waiting for Sampa to open. We parked across the street…read moreand couldn't ignore the lively beats coming from the lot next door. Naturally, we followed the music... and wow, what a vibe! This place is such a vibe-y outdoor hangout spot. Super cute, super chill. The first thing you see? A full bar built into a refurbished 1954 Spartan Trailercoach and yes, it's as cool as it sounds, serving beer and craft cocktails. The music was bumpin', the energy was up, but it still had this cozy, intimate feel. Perfect combo. My boyfriend and I both got the Paloma and we snagged a spot in the back to catch the DJ doing his thing. Our table was a little wobbly and my cocktail tipped! Such a bummer but the bartender didn't miss a beat. She sent someone to clean it up immediately and replaced my drink with a fresh one. Didn't catch her name but shoutout to her for the amazing service! There was a big group nearby just vibing, laughing, and living their best life. The whole place felt like a spontaneous backyard party you never want to leave. So glad we wandered in this is definitely a new fave.

Back at the resident for New Year's Eve a second year in a row. The bar tenders are so nice and…read moremake beautiful cocktails! I like the variety of drinks they have! They also had a good option this year! Yummy tacos, quesadillas and nachos were available for purchase. The staff was really on it, always making rounds to clear empty glasses outside. Fun 90's and 2000's music going all night. There were plenty of tables outside and quite a few heaters to keep you warm! This is a fun place to go in general but also definitely a fun and chill vibe for new years eve!

I come there to work from my iPad frequently and one day, I needed to take a ZOOM call. The ONE umbrella was taken so I pulled a chair over into a shaded area. The security guard came over to tell me that I was not allowed to pull a chair into the area and that I had to put it back. He did this as my ZOOM call was starting so I hurriedly got up to move and my iPad fell and cracked. I stopped coming as much for awhile because I have seen other people move their chairs to find more shade in the past. Well PLEASE explain why I am here right now and this Asian man is not only allowed to move one chair into that same area but they HELPED him move several chairs and a TABLE to sit in the area that I was asked to move from. I have seen him here on several occasions and maybe he has closer ties? Who knows? What I do know is that what is good for the goose should be good enough for the gander. So if this area is prohibited to sit in, that should be applied to EVERYONE. And then when I tried to address with the woman who works in the office, she snapped at me after I asked if I could ask her a question. Her exact words: "About WHAT??" Once she led with that energy, I asked was she an employee (I have already been told in the past that she is) and she replied, "No, I don't work here." SO i left her alone even after she tried to clean it up by asking if I wanted to speak with the other security guards. I walked away and sat down to write this. But I also asked the security guard (DAVID) who originally told me that I could not pull a chair into the area why it was okay for the person that is sitting there now and he told me that it is because they are employees. He told ME that that are could not be blocked by the ONE chair that I pulled over into a CORNER but they have a whole table and several chairs set up as I type this. The woman who swears she is not an employee (SHE IS) came over to me trying to ask what I needed and I told her I was good and that I was leaving. She said, "Well you're complaining so..." and I cut her right TF off and told her that I was not COMPLAINING; I was asking a VALID question. She then starts talking sh*t telling me that I come there all the time to sit in the courtyard while purchasing nothing. MIND YOU, the local businesses at this location know me by name and/or face (Escala, Silverlake Ramen, Cap't Loui, Starbucks, etc...). This is also a place where transient/unhoused individuals come all the time to sit and rest so imagine saying something so insensitive not knowing what the situation may be. It is a public area and nobody is OBLIGATED to purchase anything. But I DO on a WEEKLY basis so perhaps Miss Girl can get her facts straight. But it's okay. I will be contacting management asap.
