    I was charged 33.50 for the night. I had tip but did not tip more than $10. This bar is just making up their own tips ?

    I wouldn't go back. They tip themselves without letting me know they tipped themselves more than $10 wtf? Never going back. The drinks were mid and small

    Cool mixologist!!!

    Found this hidden gem! I was in the area and had to hang in the area for a few, found this spot. Had a beer and watched the a little sports while waiting, everyone very chill!, one pool table a few arcades Machines. Maggie and Pedro working, both supper cool. Parking is cool and surprising the bathroom very clean lol.

    Five Stars for Kuduowl! Owner and bartender extraordinaire Amanda Colom, her business partners &…read moretheir staff have created an amazing bar that showcases creative and original drinks. There are about 6 talented bartenders who work the bar and each of them bring a unique portfolio to mixology. Let's get back to Amanda! One of my friends who was visiting from Hawaii found Amanda on social media and asked that I take her to Kuduowl to experience this unique mixology. We were greeted warmly by Amanda and she explained the concept of the bar and the drink options. All were absolutely beautifully crafted and served! Delicious! I had a drink a few years ago (Sloe Gin Ramos) and not many bartenders know how to make it, nor do they want to take the time to make it. Amanda and Chris jumped right in and made it (takes 10-15 minutes to make). It was delicious and the preparation was a show! Loved it. All bartenders, servers, and bar backs were working in unison, like an orchestra. You could tell they all enjoyed their jobs and coworkers! It made for a beautiful ambiance. The bar welcomes everyone - from old to young, from gay to straight, and a rainbow of diversity of ethnic backgrounds! This has to be my favorite bar in Southern California! Bravo Amanda & team!

All bartenders are real mixologists. Cody was a reason we have kept coming back but Luis and Birdy have just added more to the experiencia. As recommendation do come before 10p because they do have a cover fee for the club which will also give access to upstairs which is Kuduowl. As for parking it will be on the street for the most part they have a lot to park at a cost as well. Great place overall and service.

This place instantly became one of my favorites after just one visit. From the moment you walk in, the whole vibe hits you--the moody, neon-lit ambiance sets the tone perfectly. It feels elevated, a little edgy, and honestly just the kind of spot you want to spend your night at. The music is curated so well. Not too loud, not too mellow--just the right balance where you can vibe, have a conversation, and still feel the energy of the room. You can tell they actually care about the experience, not just throwing a playlist together. Now let's talk about the drinks... because that's really where they shine. Every cocktail feels intentional and crafted with care. You can taste the quality immediately--nothing watered down, nothing basic. They have a really cool mix of classic cocktails and modern twists, and even the familiar drinks feel elevated. It's the kind of place where you want to try something new every round because you trust the bartenders know exactly what they're doing. Service was on point too. Friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. They took the time to explain drinks and made great recommendations, which made the whole experience even better. I came in not knowing what to expect, and left already planning my next visit. If you're in Uptown Whittier and looking for a spot with great energy, amazing cocktails, and a full vibe--The Vandalist is it. Thank me later

As we went in we were greeted by a hostess and were seated right away at the bar area as requested. The bar was not busy but there were people there also eating, the dining area was pretty busy and the service was pretty quick. The restaurant has a nice modern Mexican style look, they were playing bad bunny and other similar Spanish music and the sound system was good and not too loud. I order the black aquachiles which were pretty bomb and not too spicy, it was served with onions, avocado, black hot sauce and tostadas. My wife ordered the tacos gobernador and they were served in a wooden board and a side of some really good spicy Serrano chile. We had beer as well. Pretty good restaurant, they have definitely improved since the last few times I've been there in the past during covid. I would recommend this restaurant. Next we will try the micheladas, they have been good in the past and I'm sure they are better now.

I come here regularly--about twice a month--and have even celebrated my birthday here, so I felt confident in what to expect. When my husband and I arrived and asked for the happy hour menu, we were told it was not being offered "because it's Cinco de Mayo." While I obviously knew the date, there was absolutely no indication anywhere online or during booking that happy hour would be canceled. That was really frustrating and felt misleading. If there are exceptions to regular specials, especially on a day that might bring in more customers, that should be clearly communicated ahead of time. It doesn't make sense to remove happy hour entirely without offering any alternative promotions--if anything, I would expect more incentives on a day like this. We ended up leaving without ordering because the experience started off on the wrong foot. Disappointing, especially since this has been a go-to spot for us in the past.
