Mr. bartender made my husbands birthday very special. Anthony was super helpful in planning our selections and flexible with scheduling. Zack, our bartender, was fantastic and did a great job interacting with our guests and the cocktails were outstanding. Best of all, there wasn't anything for us to clean up! read more

This is the business! Best bartenders and soo inventive. They create cocktails for your event. Every bartender is great, from their personal Bartending experience to customer service. This is the one stop shop for anything from private events, birthdays, to a big corporate event! Go with these guys, they are the real deal! read more

We used Mr. Bartender for a company holiday party. Our bartender was Maranda. She was amazing. The drinks were perfect. We did the mixers package, and Maranda came armed without fresh squeezed fruit juices and all sorts of fancy mixers. Everyone was obsessed with the cocktails. She was on time, fun, and an incredible mixologist. I highly recommend. read more

Loved having Mr Bartender join us for a work event. Patient, professional and collaborative, working with them was a breeze. No complaints!

By the way, I have asked 2 times via email for a copy of the receipt for the ice purchased and still have not received even a response - let alone a copy of the receipt. Do not do business with this company. read more

We had a wonderful experience with the Mr. Bartender crew! The entire process was easy...they have great, efficient, friendly customer service. We used them for a party at our home for 50 or so people and they arrived early, efficiently set up, served great drinks, were very friendly and professional, and did an amazing job of clean-up. They were helpful, kind and creative...made great drinks and made throwing a party so easy. We would certainly use them again! read more

We hired Mr. Bartender for our son's Bar Mitzvah party. They were fantastic! Punctual, polite, warm and service oriented. We would hire them again in an instant! read more

Mr. Bartender was so fun to work with for my wedding. They have great communication, and the staff day of was the coolest. We had over 140 guests who are drinkers and didn't have to wait forever to get cocktails. read more

Highly recommend Mr. Bartender. I hired them for my birthday party and I was not disappointed. They were professional, on-time, and above all, made GREAT drinks!! All my guest were happy and they made sure we all had a drink in hand at all times!! If you're looking for a bartender for you're next event, look no more. read more

I've hired Mr Bartender twice now for two separate parties. The first time was fine - the bartenders arrived on time and were nice enough, but put out a tip jar when I asked them not to, then pressured me into a larger tip at the end saying they didn't make "hardly anything" on tips. But, the drinks were good, and Anthony was super helpful - always answered the phone and was really lovely. The second time I hired them, the bartender(s) stole a bottle of liquor at the end, and a few packs of red bull. So unprofessional. I called to let Anthony know and he was fine - I didn't feel like he really cared that much, and I got a half-hearted apology. All in all, they were fine - did the trick. The mixed drinks were good, and like I said, Anthony was helpful. I wouldn't necessarily recommend them, though, as I found his bartenders to be unprofessional both times I used them. read more

Used this service at my wedding over the weekend and keep getting compliments from all my guests. He was prompt, very polite and efficient in his work and kept the bar area looking nice and tidy. He looked great in the Mr. Bartender uniform of suspenders and a bow tie. As far as booking, Anthony, was great at quickly responding to my inquiry and being honest with what I would and wouldn't need for my small wedding of 70 guests. He didn't try to talk me into anything - just sent over the paperwork I needed to fill out and answered my questions. This was probably one of the easiest vendors I dealt with during my whole planning process. AND I only contacted them 3 weeks before my wedding but it was no problem! I definitely would recommend this service if you're having an event! read more

Drinks were on point and service was amazing! Had them bartend for my wedding this past Memorial Day weekend and it was a great hit! Saved so much going with them and had happy wedding guests ALL night long!!!! Could not complain...had a comprehensive drink menu to choose from and Anthony was very flexible with modifying the drinks if requested and his estimates for drinks were on point - did not have very much left over booze at all! Do yourself a favor and go with Mr. Bartender and you will not be disappointed! read more

I booked mr bartender last minute for a Christmas party and I couldn't have been more impressed! I've never hired a bartender before but let me tell you I'm going to hire one for every party moving forward! They were very accommodating with all my requests and all the guests loved the bartender, he was the highlight of the party, if you can- request Matt! Couldn't recommend more! read more

Looking for a WOW factor for my husband's 50th bday party. I got blown off my feet. I don't think I will ever have a party without using Mr. Bartender. I can't find adjectives big enough to express how pleased I am with their service, professionalism and care. I'm extremely meticulous when it comes to my party planing. We use to call or sit down and get every thing in writing but now we use vendors we find on-line and never see in person so with all the e-mailing something can get missed. I need to confirm and clarify a lot. Owner, Antony must have the patience of Job. We e-mailed and talked a lot. He addressed all my concerns. The flexibility in his cocktail library is ridiculous. I gave a list of likes and dislikes, even stated I didn't want red staining ingredients like strawberry and raspberry, so he went outside his library and crafted the most tasteful cocktails I've ever had and the most eye appealing. I can't say enough about his calm and funny demeanor. Gabriel, my bartender, arrived set up and was on point all night. He didn't even want a chair to sit in. He was that serious about being professional although this party was given in my home. After dealing with Anthony and meeting Gabriel I knew I had a great vendor. I was able to enjoy the party and be worry free about the bar. My guest are stilling talking about the cocktails. Hopefully they will use the services. Overall, I don't have one hiccup or complaint about my entire transaction. I will definitely request Gabriel and the services of Mr. Bartender again. Sunny & Shayne thank you from the bottom of their hearts. read more

Let's just say...that the next time I need a bartender or need to recommend a bartender, Mr. Bartender will be on the top of my list. I am an event coordinator (Winnie Phung Weddings & Events) and had the pleasure of working with this team this past weekend. The bar was set up inside a barn, with limited space and I was amazed at how well they made it work. They were professional, friendly, stylish, and very fun to work with. They use fresh herbs and fruit juices in their drinks, and their drinks were delicious! What amazed me the most, was how well they were able to manage these specialty cocktails and move the line so quickly during cocktail hour! I definitely look forward to working with them again. read more

We hired Mr.Bartender for our Wedding a month back. We wanted our guest to have a big menu to choose from since my wife and I are cocktail nerds. That was no problem for Anthony and the Mr.Bartender team. My wife and I decided to do 12 cocktails and Anthony and his team knock it out of the park!!! His response time was quick and easy. He helped us miscellaneous stuff and made sure we had everything. Cocktail hour was a blast! Service was quick, definitely trust Anthony with amount of staff we needed. My guest we're raving about how amazing and creative each cocktail was!!! Definitely gonna hire these guys again!!! Cheers!! read more

Went to Crave Expo this past weekend and Mr.Bartender was one of the vendors hosting. When we first walked in we hit the bar. They had amazing drinks and the service was excellent. Such clever drinks so delicious. They also roll cigars. I will be recommending this vendor to my friends. read more

Overall, we are quite happy with the service Anthony and his crew provided for our wedding. He came to our house several months before the wedding to offer some friends and us a tasting, to help us select craft cocktails for the wedding. This was lots of fun and really helped us narrow down the field. At the wedding reception, the presentation was stylish, and all of our guests loved the drinks, which featured some great ingredients (fresh rosemary, thyme, thai chilis, passion fruit, etc.). Anthony was also willing to work with some of our unusual demands, including muddling limes for the caipirinhas, which we appreciated. We really like the fact that Anthony was willing to let us purchase our own alcohol and some other supplies (soda, napkins, juice, ice, etc.). This kept costs down and allowed us to keep leftovers. Not as a knock on Anthony, but hopefully just as a helpful bit of feedback, I'll give a bit of detail about how the estimates matched up with the actual consumption: Anthony told us that "nobody drinks wine at weddings"; instead they drink cocktails, if available. We told him that our families drink a lot of wine, but he stood his ground, and recommended 14 bottles (we had 130 guests, about 120 of drinking age). We ended up buying 25 bottles, and still ran out of wine during dinner. We also ran out of beer by the end of the night. It was the cocktails that ended up being oversupplied, interestingly. Out of 36 bottles of liquor that I provided, we had at least 16 unopened bottles left over at the end of the night, meaning I spent more than $350 more than necessary. Not the worst problem to have, since we got to keep it all, but worth noting. The only thing I didn't like was that several times Anthony insulted our choice of spirit for the father-of-the-bride's toast. He is from Hungary, so we provided everybody with a shot of pálinka (fruit brandy). This is a special drink for those who lived in Communist-era Hungary, and the toast was emotional. Never a good idea to insult the customer's selection! That minor complaint aside, I would not hesitate to recommend Anthony and his crew for anyone planning a wedding or other event. read more

Bottom line: great and affordable bartending and food service provider. Details: we hired Mr. Bartender to provide bartenders, servers, and door security for a pre-wedding party for 80+ people at a gallery space in Venice. CA. Anthony was great with communication before our event. And his pricing was quite competitive. Mr. Bartender ultimately provided us with all staffing. Anthony also purchased all the alcohol / drinks we needed for our big party. All the bartenders, servers, and security staff were professional and on-time. read more

Excellent, would highly recommend. Seamless planning, professional service, reasonable pricing. Would definitely recommend d and use again. read more

I had a little party for some friends and family and wanted to make sure my guests were as services by a great bartender. I decided to search for a bartending company and ended my search with Mr. Bartender. Turns out that he was a really cool guy with an even cooler business card. He had great attention to detail with bartending my event. Anthony and his bartenders really know their stuff! I would definitely hire them again. read more

We used then for our Corporate Holiday Party and these guys were fabulous! Always accurate on the drinks and worked very well with with our high end guests.

Mr. Bartender provided the services for our wedding, and Anthony was a dedicated and reliable professional from start to finish! He was honest, transparent, and invested in the success of our wedding. From helping us develop a selection that was high quality and in our budget to driving to my house a few days before to pick up all the alcohol, he was an absolute pleasure to work with! When planning a wedding there are so many variables to stress over, and it brought so much peace of mind to be working a company as professional, reliable, and transparent as Mr. Bartender. It was a refreshing experience that reinvigorated my positivity, and left me feeling hopeful that not everyone in the wedding industry was trying to make an extra buck off my special day. I would highly recommend working with Mr. Bartender, and will certainly work with them again on future events. read more

Anthony and his team tended the bar and our wedding this Sunday just gone (10/05/14) and helped make the day a huge success. Friendly and professional at the same time. Anthony drew up a list of ingredients we would need for the two signature cocktails we provided on the day, along with an estimate for our wines and beers based on our guest-count. It really could not have been any simpler. Anthony and his staff were polite and good fun yet remained professional throughout; chatting at the bar and making guests feel looked after. We would use Mr. Bartender again in a heartbeat. The cocktails were second-to-none and our overall experience was without fault. Thank you Anthony! read more

This review is long overdue! My sisters and I reached out to Mr. Bartender to bartend at my moms 65th birthday, and it was worth every penny. From the planning, to the day of the event, everything was perfect! It set a special vibe to the party and everyone had such a great time. We paid to have shopping service included in the package which made it easier for us to not have to worry about bringing ice or soft drinks, so I recommend that. If you're on the fence, trust me, do it! You'll be happy you did! And shoutout to Chris, who was the bartender at the event and walked me through the entire planning process. He made every drink with a smile, had great knowledge of everything and put up with us! He was great!! read more

I booked Mr. Bartender for a very important event with the coalition to end the war in Congo named Falling Whistles at BOXeight Studios for Human Rights Day in DTLA on 12/10/13. They arrived early, brought their own bars, had great recipes, and dressed in matching suspenders, bowties, and button downs. Our venue provided the alcohol, and they added the personality. Everyone was in love with them, and the drinks were on point. I recommend them for any future events you need bartenders for! I hope to see them at an upcoming event, because they know how to enhance the vibe of your event. They build and break down clean and quickly, so get in touch with Anthony with any questions that you have and he will work with you. read more

We hired Mr Bartender to serve at my girlfriend's birthday party. They created a custom drink for her based on her preferences, and then provided a list of their own cocktails from which we picked three more to create our drink menu for the night. It was a 70s disco themed party, and we picked appropriate names for all of the drinks. When our bartender Chris arrived (early) for the party, he had the menu printed and framed to be displayed on the bar. He brought in all of his equipment, had the bar assembled, had all of the garnishes prepped and ready to serve well before the time we had requested the bar be open to our guests. He was friendly and professional, and we would be happy to hire him again. The drinks were delicious. Having a professional bartender serve custom cocktails at your party really adds that extra element to the atmosphere. read more

If I could give Mr. Bartender an additional 5 stars I would! My sister decided last minute (a few hours before her big 30th birthday party) that she needed are a bartender and Mr. Bartender came through for us! Our bartender, Keiko was so sweet and knowledgeable - the party could not be the success that it was without her. She came prepared. The rates are great, the professionalism is outstanding - Mr. Bartender is 50 shades of wonderful! I definitely recommend, and will use them again! read more

Booking with Mr. Bartender and working with Chris was a wonderful experience. Booking was so easy, and Chris was great at recommending cocktails and drink options for our event, while also being mindful of our budget. Chris also provided a recommended shopping list for all specialty cocktails, which was much appreciated! Highly recommend this great service!! read more

Anthony and his team are awesome--super responsive, easy to work with, and just really personable--everyone loved them at my party and they just really seem to love what they do, which makes the experience that much better for everyone! We only had them serving beer and wine, so it was hard to say how their cocktails are, but we talked a lot about their ideas and what they typically do cocktail wise and it sounds amazing. If I lived in LA, I would definitely hire Mr. Bartender for all your bartending and mixology needs! read more

I'm not even finished booking with Anthony and already I love this business!! Being totally new to event planning, I have badgered him with question after question, asking about so many specifics, and he has replied so swiftly to every one of my emails. This is a guy who truly wants you to have a great experience. I'm very excited to see how the event goes! read more

I hired mr bartender for a private company event for around 350 people. They were beyond professional and I seriously couldn't recommend them enough. Everything went very smoothly and really took a lot of weight off of my shoulders....they were on time, set up, brought everything, and even tore down and cleaned their area when the event was over. If you're looking for a very high quality bartending service, don't even bother getting quotes anywhere else. I will refer them to everyone I know. read more

We used Mr. Bartender's services at our wedding, and it was by far one of the best decisions we made! It was one of the highlights of the wedding. It is now a month and a half after our wedding, and our friends still rave over the drinks. Anthony was amazing to work with. He helped us select our cocktails for the night, as well as created two specialty cocktails just for us! We will definitely be reaching out to Mr. Bartender for future events! read more

This is a very professional and fun group of bartenders. The owner thought of everything, so they're very organized and make delicious crafty cocktails. I'd highly recommend for anyone who wants to host a worry free event with amazing drinks & top notch service! read more

We hired Mr Bartender for our 11/19/16 wedding at SmogShoppe. Drinks = INCREDIBLE. Before him, I did not consider myself a drinker, not even socially. Nothing but an occasional bottled cider did it for me...always too strong & a giant waste of money. Anthony COMPLETELY changed that!! I realized at my wedding that I had never tasted a properly made drink. DIVINE!! We initially had a phone call to go over his service and drink preferences, then he was available via phone or email for as many questions as we needed answers. Over the course of planning, we went through his vast menu & came up with a list of 5 drinks (4 alcohol, 1 non). Our coordinator kept them coming that night; I could not get enough!! And our guests are still talking about and drooling for them. #autumncider We were blown away by the clean taste & presentation of the cocktails and the service of his staff. This is a high-end mixology/bartending service. You will pay for it (bar rental, back bar, alcohol, glasses, straws, napkins, ice, etc. not included). But what you get is absolutely worth every penny. You are paying for excellence and expertise. His selection is sophisticated and beautiful. This experience...his products and services...have ruined me for any other cocktail in the future. Folks out there have some giant shoes to fill. What you need to know: Anthony is really straightforward. You'll get an answer for what you ask, so be sure to communicate your needs and let him know if you want true consultation. Give him a call! It's easier and you'll learn a lot! As mentioned, base price is for bartenders & mixology. Everything else is on you to secure. He has a pay-for-him-to-shop option, which we initially thought we'd go for, but we vastly underestimated the cost of alcohol & in the end went with delivery from BevMo to the site. We also had ice delivered. Bar rental was through Anthony and glasses were through a local rental co. Straws & napkins came from Amazon. Ordering through BevMo: SO SIMPLE because Anthony writes out EXACTLY what you will need - brand and quantity. He knows what he's doing and is really great at it. Really he did the same for us with everything else, too; he gives glass styles based on the drinks selected with suggested quantity. It was cake. We also secured 3 dinner servers through him. In all, we had 2 bartenders, 1 bar back, & 3 servers. They were all very professional and sweet to our guests. Very impressive. We will absolutely book him in the future. No other will do!! And if I haven't expressed enough how much we loved Mr. Bartender, let me end with this: we are now building a home bar so that we can *attempt* to experience real drinks at our leisure based on the level of education and AMAZING TASTES we had with him. Autumn Cider and Vanilla Lemonade to the grave!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more
