    cesar wrap + chicken bacon ranch sandwich
    Shelby D.

    New happy hour menu and it is incredible! Great spot to enjoy an evening on the patio in DTLA. And friendly service as always.

    Picture the terrible Michelada, and the waffle chicken. No amount of Tabasco gave it flavor.

    I'm gonna pull a Karen and go out of my way to post this review because it was awful food, awful service. The bartender warned me about the Michi Lada being terrible. He didn't like it, but I still decided to order it and it tasted like a wet dirty rag. I don't know how but it did. The food had no flavor. My friend and I agreed that it was the worst meal we've ever had in our life , only for desperate days .

    My mule came in a cute can!

    Had a great time at Prank and the owner even stopped by our table to say hi! Highly recommend!

    Brendon And April best bartenders in LA
    Daniel A.

    In the spirit of giving props and recognition to hard working folks in the restaurant industry I'd like to give a shot out to Brendon and April hands down the best bar tenders I've had the pleasure of encountering not just in LA but across multiple cities. They exemplify the very essence and epitome of elevating the bartending experience and costumer service and the artisan craftsmanship of the cocktails they make. I am so exited for this Restaurant and Bar Dave the owner truly Knows what his doing I've had the pleasure of talking to him and his down right a great person chill as can be. Brendon and April great job always holding the bar down to an outstanding A+ standard, and that's every visit I've stoped on in . If you're in for a drink don't be afraid to say hi to them you'll see what i'm talking about. Thank guys keep up the great work.

    Such a delightful experience. I've been wanting to stop by here for a while on my walks around downtown. It always looked pretty busy. It was exactly what I hoped it would be. Great drinks and food!! Happy hour ends at 8pm so that is a plus for people who get off late!!

    Golden Hour - Beer and shot $12
    Kevin P.

    We stopped by Prank before our Kings games for some food and drinks. This place is pretty soild. The food was good and drinks were fantastic. We arrived right when it open, during golden hour ( HH). Their beers and shot combo was $12. You can pick any beer on tap and any standard shot. As for food we ordered the following: Boneless Chicken Tenders- This was great and not dry. Good size portion as well. Beef Sliders- This was also soild. Home Made Meatballs- Soild and tasty. Prince Edward Island Mussels- This was disappointing. Most of the mussels were pretty much nonexistent. Nachos- Good size portion Nachos. Service was fantastic and very friendly. Parking- Street and Self pay lots. Overall a great way to start out the night.

    Awesome happy hour in DTLA near Crypto Arena! It's one of the rare happy hours that lasts late into the evening, making it easy for me to stop by after work. We visited on a Monday when happy hour was all day, and there was a deal on chicken tenders. Just order at the bar, grab a number, and find a table.

    Passion Flower
    Justin J.

    Was driving home the other day and wanted to get something to eat, and came by Prank so decided to check it out. Has that sport bar/restaurant/local hangout vibe. First, the music was great, from 90s to more current hip hop, can't go wrong with that. Plus games on the TVs, and everyone was so friendly, just a warm and welcome spot Started with a cocktail and had the Passion Flower. Very flavorful. Would definitely get it again. For food, we tried multiple items. The meatballs were moist on the inside and had good flavor to them. The mussels are in a white wine garlic marinara sauce but didn't necessarily stand out in any one way. The filet mignon tacos were good on a blue corn tortilla with pico de gallo and avocado. We split the short rib entree which can't with garlic mashed potatoes and sauteed kale. The kale needed to be seasoned a little better but the short rib was nice and tender. Flavor wise, it was ok, didn't necessarily stand out either. Overall, cool place, good vibes, friendly staff and the people there were also friendly and talkative. Food we tried was ok overall, wouldt definitely go back to watch a game, have a drink and maybe try something the from the menu

    Bar setting, got a spicy margarita and appetizers. They were pretty tasty, I didn't pay so I don't recall the pricing, but I'm assuming it was decent. Good music; Hip Hop. It's a decent sized place they had indoor and outdoor seating. Went on a Friday, it wasn't busy so that was good. Definitely recommend.

    Ginger giant
    Amber S.

    Came here for a conference social. I was able to grab a table outside. I only tried the drinks, which were pretty good! The ginger giant was my favorite. Perfectly balanced sweetness, ginger kick, and egg whites.

    Gumbo Brothers made the night…read more... Stumbled into this portion of level 8, after the vibes were mild near the carousel rooftop bar. Good size crowd, but it was easy enough to get a drink from the bar. Vibes were good and got better when the Gumbo Brothers came on. They are a cover band, but specific to hip hop and RnB, and they killed it. Jay on the sax was amazing, and Apollo on the mic was perfect. We will be back on Friday or Saturday, since I believe that's when the Gumbo Brothers are there.

    Overpriced, excessive fees, and disappointing service…read more Honestly, I was shocked when the check arrived. A 20% tip was already included, plus they charged an additional 10% tax on the tip and another 3% credit card processing fee. At this point, it honestly feels like the restaurant is looking for every possible way to squeeze money out of customers. It comes across as a scammy way of doing business. To make matters worse, everything on the menu is already overpriced, and the tables are so small they can barely fit one plate comfortably. The food was just okay. The only thing I'll give them credit for is that the drinks were good. Unfortunately, the service wasn't impressive either. We had to wait quite a while before the server came around to take our order. Overall, the experience wasn't worth the price. Between the overpriced menu, excessive fees, tiny tables, and slow service, I wouldn't be rushing back.

    The DTLA Proper Hotel is beautifully designed by Kelly Wearstler, a former athletic faciliity…read more Although I've done several staycations here, tea at Dahlia remained on my bucket list of experiences, since it's only offered on weekends. 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.
