Cute cocktail bar with a view, The view is incredible at sunset on the outdoor patio. We enjoyed cocktails, beer, and the filet mignon sammie. The food was SO good. Perfect for cocktail hour, but they also serve the full menu from castaway here so you could even order dinner if you wanted. Really beautiful presentation for the cocktails, reminds me of Barton G before it closed. They have a buzz button cocktail which was super tasty! Service was extreme friendly,and accommodating. Everyone was making sure we were satisfied throughout out time there. I will for sure be back, and if you're looking for a cute date night spot this it! I will be back to try more of the tapas!

We walked in on a Saturday night and service was amazing quick & efficient from the beginning. The gentleman at the door explained the rules (90 min per party) and quickly got us seated. Our hostess was amazing and got us our food and drinks so so fast! The menu is sooo fun and unique. We got the pho French dip and popcorn chicken. Both great. Drinks were strong and the presentation was amazing as u can see from the pictures lol. Also very strong. I appreciate that they had gin options for non rum lovers lol. We will definitely be back to try other menu items. Such a great hole in the wall:)

This place is absolutely gorgeous, music is wonderful, bathroom feels like a hidden cove…read more From the time you step in, the speakeasy vibe alone is so mystical and magical. One time I was sad because they made me wait long as a solo walk-in when I let a couple go ahead of me and I walked out. So keep an eye out, it depends on who's working the front. The reason I still give them 5 stars is because they have since made up for that. It really is a beautiful place, and given that they're a relatively new establishment or a busser could have stepped in if they're busy, so just give them feedback if they need to work on things like that. The food and drinks are so unique to their place, continuing that "hidden jewel" theme. Their menu is limited but all quality food, like you're going to that friend's house and you love their recipe style. I loved the chicken sandwich the best, the crispy chicken was so juicy! Their vegetarian options are devilishly good too, with their happy face potato fritters and fried mac. For drinks, my favorite was the chocolate banana. They use real ingredients, so it really hit the spot for me. The family and kids love it, such a great vibe that you'd never expect.

I tried the Superdelic Hazy and the Subtle Smurk Hazy! They were both delicious with the Superdelic being my favorite of the two. It was lighter, more crisp, light on the hops, with a piney finish which I found refreshing. Its a great spot to come and watch your favorite sports game or just come grab a beer with a group of friends. Its a peaceful location and there is plenty of seating. I will certainly be back.

5 stars. Took my boyfriend here for his birthday and the night couldn't have gone better…read more We started with the meatball appetizer, then the caprese salad, the crab cake, and the branzino with almond crust for the main. Every single plate was on point. The branzino was the standout -- crispy almond crust, fish cooked perfectly, not a dry bite on the plate. The crab cake was all crab, no filler, and the caprese was fresh and simple the way it should be. The real star of the night was Scott, the bartender/owner. He took care of us from the second we sat down, recommended everything we ate, and went out of his way to make Edward's birthday feel special. You can tell he actually cares about the people in his room, not just turning tables. That kind of hospitality is rare. And the drinks -- a dirty martini, a Manhattan, and hands down the best whiskey sour I've ever tasted in my life. The Rendition Room is a whole experience: hidden speakeasy, great food, great drinks, and Scott running the show. If you're celebrating something, this is where you go.

We've been coming to The Rendition Room for years, whether for work events or date nights, and…read morebecoming members nearly three years ago was one of the easiest decisions we've made. It's become so much more than just one of our favorite bars and every visit reminds us why we keep coming back. The biggest reason, though, is the people. Hospitality is something that's hard to fake, and the team here does it effortlessly. From the moment you walk through the door, you're greeted like an old friend. Over the years, the staff has created an environment that feels welcoming, comfortable, and genuinely personal, and that's something that's become increasingly rare. Matt, Sabrina, and the entire team are all such gems. Scott also deserves special recognition. He's a huge part of what makes The Rendition Room such a special place. Whether he's introducing a new cocktail, sharing the story behind a spirit, or simply taking the time to check in, his passion and care for every guest shine through. It's people like Scott who transform a great bar into a place you truly feel connected to. On our most recent visit, we tried the new Decade & Debauchery cocktail, celebrating The Rendition Room's 10 year anniversary, and it's phenomenal. Balanced, and beautifully executed. In a city full of great bars, they have managed to create something much harder to find, a sense of community. After all these years, it still feels just as special as the first time we walked in.

Amazing service from Marty! So knowledgeable and had great energy. Truly made our anniversary…read morespecial. We loved EVERYTHING. Standouts? Get the olives. Get the mushroom pasta. Get pork belly.

My hubby and I don't go out very often so we saved Firefly for a date night, and I can absolutely…read moreunderstand why this is such a popular spot for date nights and special occasions. The restaurant is gorgeous! There is something incredibly charming about the combination of the warm lighting, fireplace, and open-air dining area. We were seated in the corner beneath the open sky, facing the fireplace, which made the entire experience feel especially intimate and memorable. From the moment we arrived, the hospitality was wonderful. Our server gave us complimentary brachetto wine on the house, and we loved it so much that we got another glass. He also recommended the crispy manzanilla olives as an appetizer, which was not our first choice, but I'm so glad we did. It was a unique take on olives and they were so crispy, flavorful, and addicting to eat. For the appetizers, we had the meatball and the crispy pork belly and watermelon. We split the main entree, the mushroom papardelle and added mac and cheese with hand cut frites. The pappardelle were fresh and flavorful. The meatball was also generously portion but for me, the star of the show is the mac and cheese. I also loved the crispy pork belly with watermelon as a contrast of savory and sweet. By the time dessert arrived, I was already pretty full, but I'm so glad we made room for it. We had the sticky toffee cake and it was fantastic. My biggest recommendation is to save yourself the headache and use valet parking if you're going during peak hours. We went after 9 PM on a Sunday so there was plenty of street parking in the area. Firefly is one of those restaurants where the atmosphere, food and hospitality came together to create an experience that feels genuinely special. The only reason I'm giving them a 4 star is the parking situation and also because our frites were overly salty. We asked to send it back to the kitchen and they were kind enough to take it off the bill because we barely touched it. Definitely a restaurant I'd recommend for a romantic dinner, celebration, or simply an evening when you want to enjoy good food in a beautiful setting. I would skip out on the frites and try their other foods though.

Great bar over in busy Brand Blvd., right across from the Americana. Your best bet on a busy night…read morelike this is the next street over (Maryland) in a large, multi-level garage. Horizontal layout that opens up a little in the back. Plenty of seating at the bar and on couches that line the wall. Not sure what the theme was for tonight, but they had a DJ spinning 80s dance tunes and a couple of tables for tarot card readings. Yep. It's a good vibe here as most of the crowd seem to be young and older professionals. So anyone will feel safe and comfortable. Not too many damn meatheads/vape addicts to ruin the scene. Cocktail menu isn't too large, but I had a couple of tropical themed drinks that were fantastic. They have a kitchen, but you have to come in earlier if you want to eat because it closes like at 9 or so. The bartender did say that it was OK to order food delivered at the bar, so there's that option. Only complaint is that there was only one bartender working and the wait was a bit long. Two would've helped out with the wait times for sure. This is a good spot to hang out and meet people if that's your thing. A good time was had by all.

Highly recommend! Classic Glendale establishment!…read more The Famous has been under new ownership, a lovely woman, who has great new ideas for the bar. Lots of themed nights and engaging activities to really bring the community together. I love the creative and fun cocktails. Lots of asian themes but also traditional tiki drinks.

Verse, thank you for an amazing evening with perfect food, a beautiful setting and lovely live…read moremusic we came here to celebrate our anniversary and Verse went above and beyond to ensure we had a special night. Our server, Emmanuel, made some fantastic recommendations. We got the waygu tartare, shrimp tostada, Dungeness crab pasta , and oyster mushrooms. The tartare was hands down the best I've had-- fantastic flavor and perfect texture. Honestly u can't go wrong with anything on the menu. We will prob have to come back to try the scallops and lobster pasta. Drinks were strong but also beautifully crafted. For dessert we shared the sorbet which was a nice ending to our meal (not too sweet but also very refreshing). Verse surprised us with a delicious almond cake that reminded me of an almond croissant. Sooo good. We rly appreciated that :) Even tho we did dine here a little later in the evening, we were still able to enjoy some live music which I appreciated. Emmanuel educated us on the history of Verse as well as the lore of the menu and building itself. A true class act! All in all one of the best dining experiences I've had in a while.

It's easily one of the best hidden-gem speakeasy restaurants and bars in the heart of Los Angeles. From the moment you walk in, the staff welcome you with warmth and respect, going the extra mile to make you feel at home. Makayla was an outstanding host and made my wife and me feel truly welcomed. The gentlemen performing on piano and drums were beyond spectacular. Their music put us completely at ease and literally transported us to another world. I could have stayed there all night enjoying that atmosphere. Now, the food--absolutely phenomenal. Their tomahawk steak paired with their bone marrow salsa was out-of-this-world good. Every bite introduced me to flavors I had never experienced before, and that pairing alone makes me want to come back. Their milk bun bread was incredibly indulgent, and their bigeye tuna tartare was equally outstanding. The atmosphere, hospitality, live music, and food made this an exceptional experience for my wife and me. Verse LA deserves every bit of a 20/10. We will absolutely be coming back more often, and I literally cannot wait for our next visit.
