Miso glazed salmon from dineLA Feb 2026
Karen C.

Food was delicious, after getting to try a variety from the dineLA Restaurant Week! I've been here for drinks and light snacks, and they have a spacious outdoor back patio (small front patio) and with trendy design indoors. Having "real" food instead of the usual app foods was what inspired me to be able to write a holistic review! All of the food options and unique dishes were delicious! The waiter was very attentive and accommodating especially when I asked about allergies.

Citrus salad
Laura P.

This is a bar with excellent food, rather than a restaurant with a bar... if that makes a clear distinction? The salads we'd both excellent: very fresh ingredients and wonderful dressing. Chicken wings were great (extra crispy), as was the kimchi quesadilla. The star of the show was my mocktail: you could never tell it wasn't a real Campari spritz. Would definitely come back for that alone! Bar ambiance, service was slow - I think perhaps a little understaffed. Service definitely was what made it feel like a bar- while friendly and nice, definitely not checking on you like you might expect in a full sit down restaurant. Street parking pretty easily available after 6.

Tacos
Robert D.

Sorry Not Sorry is not just their name, it's their approach to customer service. I paid $75 per person for a private event, only to show up and find they had triple booked their venue and were therefore sorely understaffed. From the moment I walked in and had a cheap wristband carelessly tossed around my wrist to the TWO HOURS I waited for a drink, I could not be more disenchanted. The only bright spot was the tacos and the garlic fries were actually tasty. The cocktail, however, was not only not worth the wait, it wasn't even What I ordered. It's a shame because I really think the venue in the back could have been a really cute place to host an event if it weren't for the overpromised and underdelivered service. I wish I could say this was my first less-than-satisfied experience at SNS, but it was the third and final chance. My friends took me here for my birthday last year where we found out that the restrooms were out of service and were mislead to try the bathrooms next door--where we were promptly turned away. We eventually made our way to the Rosegold Saloon across the street in desperate search of a commode. That's where we finally got some decent service. So I really think that if you've read this review to this point, maybe just start there.

Patio
Kaitlin M.

Stopped by Sorry Not Sorry and honestly didn't expect them to have such a big cocktail and liquor selection. Way more options than you'd think walking in. They've got board games, a super cute patio, and fire pits that make it really easy to hang out for a while. I went for a business event on the patio and ended up staying after just to relax outside. They even have Vietnamese coffee drinks with alcohol, which was such a fun and unexpected twist. Overall, it's a really cute little hole-in-the-wall cocktail and coffee spot with a great vibe.

Back patio with lounge area and picnic tables
Kirsten M.

This is not just a regular bar. There is a gorgeous back patio space full of picnic tables that feels like a hidden gem in the LA scene. The first time I went, my friend and I brought a puzzle, ordered drinks, and just enjoyed the atmosphere. Since then, I've loved bringing people there because the food is great and you can easily talk to each other. The staff is also incredibly kind and helpful.

Servers were so attentive to our group even with us moving around outside. The keep calm and Collins on is a refreshing take on the strawberry matcha cocktail! Food is hot and they keep it simple and tasty. Most of the metered street parking is available after 6pm and even some of the street spots are free, but just expect to street park and walk in the very safe neighborhood.

Kandece B.

I was in the area and always been curious about the place so I popped in. The street parking is quite vicious, there is another restaurant next door and they offer valet but the street is too busy to notice it. I parked around the corner and got in the bar. As I walked in, it felt like I was visiting a strangers get together. It looked like a small speakeasy bar. The staff smiled but it was polite , not approachable. It looked like they just had a Christmas party and everyone was still in their personal fun mood. Not much chatting at the bar with me, the customer, but amongst the staff itself. I ordered a drink, the bartender made it and walked away. I noticed most of the staff were eating in the kitchen away from the main area and talking. Maybe they were still riled up from their Christmas party. One staff with glasses, sat next to me with his plate of food. No conversation, just two people next to each other. I ordered the "garlic" fries but there was barely any garlic. Not the greatest first encounter and I thought the drink, ginger all the way, was OK. Not sure if I would visit again but maybe they had an off night.

Strawberry matcha gin cocktail and fish sauce margaritas
Alice L.

The drinks are expensive but unique and very tasty. I got a strawberry matcha gin cocktail and my friends for the fish sauce margarita - both were great and we had never had anything like that before. Their menu seems to switch out frequently as both were not written on the menu itself and some of the cocktails we asked for that were in the menu were not actually available. The bartender and servers are very friendly though, so make sure to ask what they are currently serving!

There were few people so I guess they did not want to spend all their profits by turning the AC on. We were fine with that, but really get a fan or something. The place is clean, has a great counter and lovely tables to eat at. We were very happy there. The service was the best. Our server was just so cute and sweet and she took such good care of us. Our food was delivered hot, the minute it came out, all made to order. Our server checked on us a few times and again, she was just a kind young woman. One some nights they have a jazz band. We did not see that so I have no opinion. The food is the best. The fish and chips were perfect with the right amount of batter and the chips were crisp and so good. I had a burger and mashed potatoes on the side. It was cooked rare like I asked and it was great with Dubliner cheese on it. My mashed was so good with gravy on the side. So fluffy and clearly just made for me. Their ice tea is great. They have a full bar and of course Guinness on tap and other things. We will be back.

A few Irish accents completed the mood. Our server (who was very busy) was another highlight of fun and great service. NOTE the service is crazy quick. So if you want to order drinks and appetizer as we did - don't order your mains at the same time!! Wait until you have enjoyed your appetizers and then order your mains!! The food (especially the fried chicken appetizers with whisky aioli) was good. The cod and chips was acceptable but (having just returned from the UK) we would pick something else next time. Also parking is tough to find - BUT allow me to suggest about 0.2 miles down the street there is a large multi level shopping complex with stores like Fat Burger and Total Wine and many more - LOTS of parking - and it is free!!!

Unfortunately, the way the payment situation was handled completely changed my experience and is the reason I would not return. When we first arrived, the host was extremely nice and welcoming. The restaurant had just opened and there weren't many people there yet, and he allowed us to sit at a four-person table so we could have a little more space. I unfortunately didn't get his name, but I definitely want to give him credit because he was very kind and made us feel welcomed from the moment we walked in. Our original waiter was also very attentive and friendly in the beginning. We ordered two margaritas, a pepperoni pizza, and wings. The food was actually really good, and we had no complaints about it. The issue came when it was time to pay. Our bill was somewhere in the $60 range, around $62-$64 from what I remember. When the payment tablet was brought to our table, it was already set to a specific tip amount. We had cash with us and planned on leaving our tip in cash, so we declined the tip on the card and completed the payment. After we signed and paid, the young woman who brought the tablet took it back and stood off to the side doing something on it. We weren't really sure what she was doing. We waited because we assumed she was going to bring back a final receipt, but we never received one. We stayed for a little while afterward because the restaurant is really nice and we were taking pictures and enjoying the atmosphere. Then we noticed that our card had been charged $74 and some change, which was more than what we expected based on our bill. We asked another employee if we could speak with someone because we were confused about the charge. While we were waiting, we could see the young woman who had brought the payment tablet talking with our original waiter. Something about the situation just didn't feel right. Our original waiter eventually came back with the payment tablet. Instead of showing us a final receipt explaining the charge, the tablet appeared to be back at the payment screen, with a tip option again. We showed him that our card showed a charge for $74 and some change, while he said that on their end it showed that we had only paid somewhere in the $60 range. At that point, his attitude was noticeably different from when we first arrived. He became more defensive and started speaking louder, and we honestly didn't want to go back and forth or cause a scene. We asked if there was some type of additional fee that could explain the difference, and we were told there wasn't. So we left it alone. About an hour and a half after leaving, we noticed that the $74-and-something charge had been refunded. That made the entire situation even more confusing. Based on everything that happened, we were left with the impression that a tip may have been added or changed after we had already completed the payment, although I cannot say for certain exactly what happened behind the scenes. My biggest issue is transparency. If a customer declines a tip on the card because they are planning to leave cash, the payment should be left as authorized. If something needs to be changed, it should be clearly explained and a final receipt should be provided. I would strongly recommend checking your card statement and asking for a final receipt before leaving. I later noticed similar concerns mentioned in other reviews, and I honestly wish I had read those reviews before coming. As for the employees: the host was wonderful, and the food was good. The young woman with the glasses, black hair, and beauty mark seemed irritated throughout the interaction and could have been much more professional and pleasant when handling the payment. I understand everyone can have a bad day, but customer service still matters. And to our original waiter: you were wonderful when we first arrived and were very attentive. Unfortunately, when you came back to the table later, your attitude was completely different, and the way the payment situation was handled left a very bad impression. I really wanted to like this restaurant because it is beautiful, the atmosphere is nice, and the food was enjoyable. But when it comes to someone's money, there needs to be complete transparency and professionalism. Unfortunately, this was a one-time visit for us. I won't be returning, but I do hope the restaurant takes situations like this seriously because the experience could have ended on a completely different note if the payment had simply been handled clearly and honestly.
