    Bottle service
    Nataly A.

    Bottle service was okay we ended up going to the bar most of the night but I like the concept that they were going for

    Cinthia S.

    Wow! I honestly had high expectations due to their social media but they fell short. Service was not the greatest. As soon as we got seated at a table mind you they asked us for a CC to get a table so my bf and I were expecting great service and great show. Unfortunately, that was just an illusion. But anyhow, as soon as we got seated it took several minutes for a server to come greet us and take our drinks order. When she finally came, she asked for our drinks and asked if we needed more time for any appetizers/bites so we thought okay she will drop our drinks and ask for our appetizers order. NEGATIVE! That didn't happened either. She stopped at our table maybe 40 mins after she took us our drinks. Super bad service. Now, let's move on to the piano show. I had made reservations for the 7p piano show, it didn't start till 7:30ish and it ended at 7:45p on the dot. Pianist said he would be going on break and coming back at 8:30p so technically the show only lasts about 15 mins. At the lobby there was a separate mini show going on which was an acrobat. That was more interesting than everything else. The IG for Mr. Wanderlust shows the burlesque show as well along with the piano but again that did not happened either. Drinks were not the best either. We've had better. Not driving all the way from Anaheim to this spot to get bad service. No thank you.

    Excellent little bar located in Level 8 with a live music and a pretty chic vibe. The drinks here were amazing, ambiance was super cool and the live music was cool. Came here with a group, had a little table and the whole experience was enjoyable. Service was a bit slow, but expected as they were crowded.

    Came in before dinner at Javier's around 8pm and it wasn't packed and we loved the pianist + the beautiful aerialist at the entrance. We came back after dinner around 10:30 and enjoyed the live band, the Gumbo Brothers. It was packed and everyone was enjoying the music. Two totally different vibes each time. Definitely a must to check out if you're visiting DTLA.

    Porn star at Wanderlust very yummy.

    We went here for our anniversary! Over our 30 something years of marriage and we've been all over LA. Had to try it out! Parking was $35, which is fine. It's so close to the arena, so I couldn't seem to find street parking. We sat down, ordered a few drinks and had a few appetizers. The food was fine, but they are very tiny portions. The whole environment felt like clubbing environment, and not dinner evening environment. It wasn't bad, just not expected. Service is "club type service"-again, not bad just not what we were expecting. We were expecting a Piano show. Oooo We waited about 30 minutes and then the person pianist rotated out, played three songs and then rotated back again. He was great!!! Had he played all night, I would've sat there and had a drink after drink after drink and we would've enjoyed the food all night long!!! We waited for 20 minutes patiently and he did not come out again. Bummer! So we ran off to the next adventure! We realized that we could wander around "level eight" and see what other clubs, bars, and things that they had. In all the years I've been posting on yelp, this is the first time I've had less than a five star rating. I'm not a picky person. The ambiance, location, and safety factor, as a lady were great! I also really liked my drink called the porn star. In theory I could wander around the eighth floor and go from club to club and enjoy each of the different ambiences. If I were a young clubbing person again, I would feel totally safe there. All in all, it was a nice place but not going back.

    If I could give 1,000 stars, I would!! I had the most incredible experience at Mr. Wanderlust for my birthday. I tried making a reservation for a large party online and the general manager, Robert, reached out via text to assist. He explained that it's an $80 minimum per person for table service, which includes cocktails starting at $22 and a limited food menu. I was concerned about the food menu because it had really expensive items ($100 and up), seafood and salad. I asked if it would be possible to get some starchy foods like fries and pizza. Robert said he "can make that happen." As more people confirmed they were going, I updated Robert on the party size. He said, "the more, the merrier!" Soooo nice and accommodating! When we arrived, we were brought to a roped off section in the middle of the room with perfect view of the revolving piano player above the bar. Robert greeted me and introduced me to our server and chef. The chef explained that he was going to send out waves of small bites. I was so blown away by the food that came out! Rihanna inspired chicken nuggets topped with caviar!! It was actually really good and the caviar wasn't even that salty. Excellent quality. They also sent out towers of beef sliders, fries, chips, truffle pizza, cream puffs and sushi!! It was more than enough food for my party of 30 and everything was delicious! They even brought out a sweet birthday dessert for me. Our server also suggested we get bottle service so it's easier for everyone to help themselves to drinks right away. We got a bottle of Haku Vodka and some blanco tequila for about $400 each. When the bill approached the $80 minimum per person, the server let me know. I was really appreciative of that because by then, we were pretty much done and we just wanted to order a few extra drinks. The live entertainment was lots of fun, from the Lyra dancer in the lobby to the pianist that would appear from behind the bar with a dancer, to burlesque dancers and a live jazz band! My friends and I had such a blast! I would come back in a heartbeat!

    The bartender that over charged my card and refused to accommodate his mistake.

    I get to the front of the bar. The guy next to me gets the bartender's attention to help me. I order an IPA and a Casa Migos with soda water. He asks if my drinks were on the other guy's bill, we both said no. He then hands me a bill for $139.00. I argued that a beer and a drink does not cost that much and that he had put the other guy's drink on my tab. He argued and said that's what it costs for 2 drinks at Mr. Wanderlust. It was not. He said he will need a manager to overturn the incorrect bill. We asked the front and they informed us that they don't have a manager currently. We then asked if he can compensate and give us more drinks to match the bill he charged me. He said he couldn't and then told me to go get the other guy. I do. It turns out he charged the other guy for his drinks and then put the other guy's bill on mine as well. They charged us twice. He then says, it's not my problem, you guys work this out. We continued to argue and he finally agreed to give us our 3 drinks to match my overcharged bill. It took 6 people and about 1 hour of arguing to get compensation for his error.

    I had a blast last night! We went to celebrate a friends birthday a party of around 10 people. We were aware the reservation didn't include a table, just the entry! We were able to get a table, but we were pretty tight even though we ordered 2 bottles. Pros: - Very unique place with beautiful stages and lights - Different ambiances - Taco truck!! (But closes earlier than the rest) - Great music - Performances were amazing! - Good vibes Cons: - Overpriced - Broken chairs (missing legs) so had to balance to use them - Very tight space for tables - A separate bouncer for the club and might have to wait to be stamped - Hard to get more water Overall we had a really good time dancing and exploring the different areas!

    This place was mesmerizing to me. Stuff was awesome, and the ambiance was exactly what I wanted. It was dark inside but it was a great vibe!! The bartender was awesome and gave me great advice on what to drink. This is the second time i've been here, and i've have not been disappointed.

    Elderberry cocktail (one of their signature drinks)

    The drinks were okay, but the ambiance and the performance were great! The service was decent too, but it would be hard to have bad service at the bar seating haha.

    Cool furniture

    Speak easy Alert! So cool! 1920s throwback. Great ambiance and A GUY comes out of a rotating bar on the wall to sing and play piano! Delicious high end cocktails

    Ask the Community - Mr. Wanderlust

    Are there gluten free desserts?

    Is a reservation required or can you walk in?

    I would make a reservation since they put you in a shorter line if you have one. However, the reservation just gets you into the bar. Doesn't get you an actual table

    Hey, are you even 21??…read more I'm gonna need to see some ID before I can let you enter... (Moments later) You can't possibly be 21, you were born in 2005... (Counting backwards on my fingers) Oh. My. God, I'm getting old!!!! ---------------------------- Alright now that we got that out of the way.... Listen up, & Listen up Good. Cause Tonight, Tonight, I'm setting the Bar straight! Now,.... Make sure to hang onto your ID, stay plenty hydrated & be ready to pace yourself... Cause we are about to Hit the bar running and go full throttle with some virtual bar hopping. But first, let's see just how many styles of bars there really are. -Ahh the classic, no-frills Dive Bar -The Cocktail Bar/The Martini Bar -The Sports bar, The BeerGarden -The Pub, The Tavern, The Biker Bar (make sure you wear your best leather pants) -The Hotel Bar, The Rooftop Bar, The Lounge -The Night Club, The Comedy Club, The Karaoke Bar -The Tiki Bar, The Wine Bar -The hidden Speakeasy (my personal Fav.) And of course, where even at 8am there's no judgement passed... -The Airport Bar. Speaking of Traveling... Bonus: Consider yourself lucky if your hotel room just happens to have a well-stocked mini bar. (These are getting fewer and fewer as I travel) Yeah, each bar listed above has its own vibe, and depending on your mood, your own individual style or even what kind of night out on the town you are looking to have... The type of bar you choose is important. But sometimes, the Bar Chooses You! Bar Magnolia quietly enters the chat. It was October 11th, 2025 and my wife & I just checked into Hotel Figueroa in DTLA. (EPIC REVIEW Coming Soon!!!) While we were waiting for our room to be ready, we decided to check out the Hotel Bar Lounge... First thought, Color me Impressed! High ceilings, Natural lighting, classy decor, comfy couches... Yeah, take your time with that room, we'll wait! So we plopped down onto their sofa, waited for a cocktail menu, and let the "we left the kids at home with Grandma; let's enjoy being kid-free for the night begin". $18.00 cocktails....Lets Goooo!! Looking back at the Photos, I can't exactly recall what we ordered... Was it a whiskey sour? Was it a paper plane?? Honestly, Who cares! They tasted great. I was sitting across from a beautiful woman. And we were responsibly adulting. What more could a guy ask for?? I'm glad you asked! After a long car ride in, sipping on water, then the first few sips of my cocktail, I suddenly had to go... Luckily, the restrooms are located just adjacent to the bar area and DAMN are they clean!! Hey, if a bar restroom is well taken care of, you know the place has Class.... And Bar Magnolia has the Class to Match! Of course, there is bar stool seating at the bar... (I usually prefer sitting at the bar as there's always some great stories to be heard and when it time to order another round, you can literally just cut out the... Middle Man (Aka waiting for your server to come check back in) In addition to the bar top stools, there are also low top tables, and a few couch-chairs with a low top table for more intimate conversations. Besides those $18 craft cocktails, a short, well Curated list of bubbles, vino and draft beers are all up for grabs. Unfortunately, we had stopped to eat before we arrived (bad move on our part), but next time, and THERE WILL BE A NEXT TIME, we will definitely partake in their food menu (cause damn, did it look GOOD!) So whether you are a guest of Hotel Figueroa, you are leaving the Crypto Arena after a concert and want to paint the town red, or you are simply just wanting to sit, relax and enjoy a nice cocktail at a classy, upscale, but not so pretentious Cocktail Lounge... Bar Magnolia is your place! Well, it's almost closing time, they are about to call for Last Call, so order us another round, bottoms up and Cheers to us!!!

    Came to Bar Magnolia on a Friday evening specifically for happy hour, which their website clearly…read moreadvertises as Monday-Friday. Once there, I was told happy hour is only Monday through Thursday. I pulled up their own website and showed it to the server. The response? A shrug. No apology, no explanation, no effort to make it right. This is straight-up false advertising, and the lack of accountability made it worse. If you're going to change your happy hour, update your website and train your staff to handle it professionally. I shouldn't have to argue with a bar over their own posted information. Won't be back.

    Took some friends here who were visiting and wanted a Speakeasy experience…read more It was maybe 9:30/10pm on a Friday and it wasn't super busy. We were able to get a seat on the coach and order drinks from the bar relatively quickly. Prices were pretty typical of LA ($18-25 a cocktail) but I would say I probably won't come back this late as it's in a shadier part of town. They have a bouncer and it was fine inside, but it's not a place where you can bar hop if that's what you're looking for as the area is seedy. Would be interested to try the food next time, but again, the safety and comfort of the light of day.

    NOVEMBER 26.2025…read more I've been through many iterations of The Library Bar over the years... from small and cozy secret bar for those that work in the looming skyscrapers of Downtown LA to being some noisy urban hip hop affair that served godawful drinks (see my past review!), and on back to being a calm and casual neighborhood bar again. The interior never changes... dark... illuminated by candlelight... the bust of Shakespeare over the fireplace, the shelves of old books-- all of it remains intact. But this latest Library Bar seems to have finally dialed in what was always sorely missing in that it showcases a conscientious staff that all seem to know how to mix drinks while treating the customer well by leaving them be. On one night my date and I share a "Black Manhattan," basically a Manhattan with the generous addition of Averna, and it's terrific. On another night, I go for Happy Hour and a few pints of Guinness on draft that are surprisingly proper and go well with their excellent and, I'm told, homemade Hummus & Veggies Plate. The music at this current Library Bar is pretty much on point and is never so loud as to interfere with the conversations that patrons seem to come here for... something you should come here for too, and maybe at Happy Hour specifically if you're looking for a nice bump in your day and to spend an hour, well, happily.

I finally was able to check it off, thanks to a hotel offer with a dining credit. Dahlia is the gorgeous petite space behind the larger ground floor restaurant space now called Cabrillo (formerly Caldo Verde). Dahlia opened as a bespoke cocktail lounge, then began to offer tea. Now it's just tea. There are five 2-tops and two 4-top tables. All food and beverage venues at the Proper used to be under the auspices of famed chef Suzanne Goin and her business partner/sommelier Caroline Styne. They are no longer affiliated with the Proper, but many of their dishes/contributions remain. The last named vestige of them is on the tea menu, "Suzanne's Deviled-Egg Sandwich". The tea menu has several options: Classic, with a seasonal mocktail, or with different champagnes. I opted for the Classic experience, because the mocktail had mocha, not my fave. Server Lluvia was clearly a Dahlia veteran; she offered a tea-smelling of all the teas that interested me as well as crowd favourites. I ultimately chose one of these faves, Mad Hatter's Tea Party, which had passionfruit and vanilla. I declined milk/cream, but did get lemon. There were rock sugar sticks on the table. It seems the selection of tea sandwiches and sweet treats changes every so often, although the vanilla bean scone, dried currant scone, Devonshire cream and apricot orange jam seem like constants. The sandwich selection at my visit were: cucumber, crab/creme fraiche, beet hummus on pita, smoked salmon and Suzanne's deviled egg. All were delish, the beet, crab and deviled egg especially. The sweet treats were: orange fig butter cookie, spiced apple brown butter crumble, cranberry frangipane hand pie, chocolate mocha macaron, pumpkin madeleine, plus the 2 scones. All were excellent. There were no leftovers. A bit pricey, but a relaxing and lovely experience. The room was not crowded when I visited, adding to the calmness of my visit.

    Sleek cocktail bar located smack dab in the center of the high foot traffic area of Little Tokyo…read more A great selection of whiskey and a solid cocktail menu with good happy hour specials. It's not surprising given the neighborhood and decor, but I think they lean towards more Japanese spirits and beers. For someone like me who's never been to Japan I feel like there's a traditional Japanese theme going on inside with lots of wood. A few friends and I came here on a holiday before dinner. Happy hour specials were still going on. I'm not sure if they thought they were gonna get that much business on a holiday but I think there's only maybe one or two people behind the bar. Since it was early when we got there, it was still not that crowded. I got the special which was a shot of Japanese whisky and a beer. Great price! Haha. I've walked by before where this place is really crowded so I assume there's a lot more people working behind the bar during the regular busy hours. Just a great place to grab drink drinks.

My girlfriend and I ordered two Old Fashioneds made with Ilegal Mezcal. The bottle being used was nearly empty, and as professionals in the hospitality industry, we are very familiar with proper pour standards. It was clear there wasn't enough product left for two consistent drinks. The bartender, Bryan, prepared both cocktails without using a jigger. When I politely asked why one drink appeared noticeably lighter than the other and why he wasn't measuring the pour, he smirked, gave a slight laugh, and responded that he "knows the exact measurement of his glasses." The tone and gesture felt dismissive and mocking rather than professional. Instead of addressing a reasonable concern with transparency, the response came across as defensive and condescending. To make matters worse, a 20% gratuity was automatically added, bringing the total to $71.12 for two inconsistent Old Fashioneds. Precision, consistency, and respect are basic standards in this industry. Unfortunately, this experience did not reflect that. We won't be returning.

    I absolutely loved this place and will definitely be going back! I went at night, and the…read moreatmosphere and the view from the rooftop were amazing. The service was also pretty fast. As for the drinks, I had their Long Island, carrot margarita, and paloma. All three were excellent and tasted wonderful, but the carrot margarita was my favorite. The people I went with loved it too, so be sure to try it when you're there. Overall, this was a great spot to hang out with friends and have a good time. Whether you want to dance or just sit and chill, you can't go wrong coming here.

    Hi, I don't usually leave reviews, but after three separate visits, I felt it was necessary to…read moreshare my experience. A group of my friends and I have come here three different times, really wanting to like this place because the atmosphere is beautiful and lively. Unfortunately, each visit has been consistently disappointing due to the same bartender--a shorter male with visible tattoos and facial hair, who seems to regularly work one side of the bar. On all three occasions, we experienced being ignored while trying to order, even as other guests who arrived after us were served first. The first time, we were eventually told "you guys can wait" in a rude tone of voice while he continued taking other orders. The second time, we were never helped at all and had to move to another part of the bar, where a female bartender provided much better service. The third visit was the most concerning. When we tried to get his attention, he responded in a dismissive and rude tone, and as he walked away, we overheard him make an inappropriate comment about us under his breath calling us out of our name and we felt very disrespected so much so that we just left. We completely understand that weekends can get busy, but consistently dismissive and disrespectful service--especially across multiple visits--is not acceptable and we've also seen him be rude to other guests as well. Aside from this issue, the venue itself is great, which is why we gave it multiple chances. I really hope management can address this, as it impacts the overall appearance and experience of the establishment. Thank you.

The ambience depends on the time, it can be a chill bar before 10pm, and post 10 on the weekends it's more of a club atmosphere with a dj.

The entire bar is dark, mysterious with twinkle lights overhead. Like Las Vegas, once inside, it's hard to know if it's day or night outside. Only exception is in their outdoor patio mirrored on the sides like the hall at Versailles and sunlight coming in from above where smoking is allowed. We came early before 8pm during Happy Hour when non-members can enter with a person with a membership which allows 3 additional guests, and all guests are free to enter without a membership until 8pm. [$30 initial membership fee for a year and $20 annual renewal.] Caña (kahn yah) means cane in Spanish referring to sugar cane from which rum is made. Our bartender was helpful and personable welcoming us and taking our orders. Under advice from Caña member Elite Yelper, Isobel L., who graciously took us under her wing, we ordered a shot of Nicaraguan Flor de Caña Rum aged 12 years that came with a cigarillo. We adjourned from the bar to the patio to smoke our mini-stogies and sipped our rum. We came early when there were very few members so it was the perfect place to talk and mellow out. Those who want a more animated crowd probably should come much later when lively dance music begins, and booties start to swing. Caña Rum Bar: 4 stars
