    We came here upon invitation on New Year's Eve masked night with a small group of friends and had a great time. The entrance is discreet/mysterious as we did not see the name of the establishment in the front but just noticed a few people waiting in line (it is next to the liquor store). Parking was easy to find in a nearby structure on a side street. The gentlemen who greeted us were both pleasant. The space is rather small but offered a chic ambiance and intimate event which was perfect for the night. The European flavor could be felt in the atmosphere and decor. Loved the style of the dining tables behind the green curtains. We enjoyed the cocktails served at the bar area and are looking forward to coming back to try the food next time. This was a great find!

    First impressions: Dim(ly-lit). Intimate. Expensive. Puzzle evokes a feeling of exclusivity, even though they are (now) open to the public. The door is unmarked, which leads to an air of mystery. Staff was very accommodating from the doorman/manager, bartender and server. There was only one other party at the time in this smaller space, but I could see the setup for a larger party across the way while being tucked away in one of their private, green velvet alcoves. There is a small bar, but it's standing room only just for drinks. The menu is small, but there is something for everyone. You have choices from their starters (alongside caviar), to their main dishes that include steak, seafood and pasta. There is a Chef's Salad on offer if you're not in the mood for something heavier. Amuse bouche was something I've never had before-nor will I ever have again-but I'm glad I gave it a try (sea bream with caviar in ponzu sauce). Filet mignon was fantastic; I asked for it to be prepared a certain way and to be honest, it's so dark that I couldn't tell if this was to my specifications but what I had was delicious. Alongside this were carrots and mashed potatoes, and my only complaint is I wish the portion size of these sides were a little more generous since they measured up taste-wise with the steak. Finally, dessert was the chocolate dome with passion fruit; the flavors co-existed beautifully, and the presentation was also on point. So glad I was able to try Puzzle, and I look forward to returning due to the top-notch service, food, and atmosphere. I cannot wait to see what they come up with next...

    Great intimate scene with amazing live music! Would be such a great spot for a private event! Come chill and have caviar and boogie.

    I discovered this magical place on Sunset, a restaurant where the food exceeds all my expectations and a speakeasy nightclub with breathtaking decor. I highly recommend it!

    Good vibes, good old fashioned and also a lot of tributes to France in the decoration. Always a good night here.

I had a glass of the rosé, which was nice and cool and light. A little pricey but it is the 1Hotel. The vibe is relaxed and chill - most of the seating is on couches or stuffed chairs and is comfortable. A lot of white with wood accents. The restaurant/bar is right up against the hotel lobby check-in desk, but the space is big and you don't have to sit right next to it if you don't want to. The hotel has valet parking and the restaurant does validate a couple of dollars off but it's still pricey.

Definitely recommend grab a bite to eat here or just hanging out with friends.

The secret entrance is a ton of fun and the ambience is dark and mysterious and transports you to a land far away, all while not leaving LA. The drinks are spectacularly delicious and innovative. There is a theme (and entire experience) to each drink. The food is likewise excellent. The hot dogs from Tail o'the Pup are some of the best in the city and you can order directly from the downstairs hot spot, or order from the tailored menu to fit the tiki theme.

I love a tiki bar (usually a wine drinker, but a dry martini or a good tiki drink, will speak to me at times!) and this place does not disappoint. Service is easy and the vibes are so fun. They have fun gimmicky drinks (Captain's Inner Circle!) and the old stand bys (exceptional Mai Thai.) The decor is also so fun (Jim Morrison's old studio) and you can order hot dogs from downstairs. Only reason they aren't 5 stars? They implement seating time limits, even when it's not super busy. I 100% understand they have to have turnover, but I would gladly pay a little extra, to hold a longer reservation! Street parking, but don't drive...get a driver or a Waymo!

Parking: We opted for valet, but if you prefer to find your own parking, there's street parking as well as a nearby parking garage. I believe the garage is around $23 for the full day, unless you're able to get your parking validated. Food: Everything came out pretty quickly, so we didn't have to wait long at all! For starters, we shared the Bruschetta with Burrata, which was enough for all four of us to enjoy. The baguette was perfectly toasted, and the burrata was so creamy. It was a great way to start the meal. Once we finished our starter, our main courses came out. We ordered the Funghi Pizza, Rigatoni Vodka, Six Cheese Tortelloni, and Spaghetti Carbonara. The pastas were creamy and flavorful, although they did feel a bit heavy. Of the four dishes, the table favorite was definitely the Funghi Pizza. It was very cheesy, and the combination of the mushrooms and cheese made it a standout for us. We ended our night with the Panna Cotta, which wasn't too sweet, but overall felt a little underwhelming compared to the rest of the meal. Service/Ambiance: The service was great! When we first walked in, it wasn't too busy, but the restaurant did start to fill up later into our meal. Even with it getting busier, our waiter continued to check in on us and made sure we were taken care of. Overall: We had a great experience celebrating our birthdays here! The food came out quickly, the service was attentive, and everything we tried was enjoyable. I can't wait to come back and try some of the other dishes!
