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. read more

My third review for Sorry Not Sorry in the span of 5 years during different eras, and now coming back to share about my experience booking a private event for 150 guests for a cocktail style reception to celebrate our marriage! From the very beginning, the team was incredibly helpful, patient, kind, and communicative. Once I submitted an event inquiry, they responded quickly and kindly. Our event exceeded anything we could have imagined, and we truly couldn't picture celebrating our milestone anywhere else. Last night just reinforced why we've always loved SNS so much! So many of our guests commented on how delicious the food was, how wonderful the service was, the yummy drinks, and how welcoming and a vibe the space was. Kim, the owner, and Rowena made everything feel so seamless, less stressful, and special. The entire SNS team the day of event also provided amazing service throughout the whole time. Very friendly and attentive as always! Please consider SNS for your next event!! read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

I came for a singles mixer in the back and it was okay. This bar was decent years ago but the quality of the food and drinks is very average now. The owner also has a terrible attitude. No parking which isn't their fault but still makes going here almost impossible. Lots of other better spots for a drink. read more

5 out of 5 everything was delicious. we had the mole tacos and nachos and split a bahn mi. The beer is also great! Patio was such a cute vibe and VERY spacious especially if you have furry friends. Service was very fast. Super excited to come back and try their cocktail menu! Over all great experience. read more

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. read more

I emailed SNS 2 days before seeing if we could host a 16 person team event there and they immediately responded to accommodate. The back patio is perfect for big groups, and they had configured the space for us in advance. Our server, Lupe, was incredibly attentive and on top of all of our requests. And the food, as always, was delicious. Will definitely be coming back for both team events and casual hangs! read more

I hosted a corporate summer event here recently and had an amazingly positive and easy experience. Not only did they come in way below similar establishments in terms of budget, they also worked with us to make sure we got the most bang for our buck Everyone was super responsive and accommodating, before and during our event. The space was also very conducive to socializing, with both an indoor and outdoor area for guests to move around in. Staff were also just the sweetest! read more

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. read more

giving this spot 5+ stars because they have always been soooo accommodating to big groups. you are able to reserve a semi-private space for 30+ guests, you can foot the bill yourself, get drink tickets, or have everyone pay their own bill. I have had 2 big parties on the patio and everyone loves the casual but chic vibe. you can put up decor too! I love the Keep Calm and Collins on, and I have taken friends back just for this drink. fries and sliders are delicious! read more

Went for an early happy drink on a Saturday night. Place was already hopping. Friendly service, nice bar. But the happy hour drink menu was sorely limited - we were told we had a choice of, I think, 2 wines, beer or a shot of whiskey. Not even a red wine - although the bartender let me have one for the hh price. We were not offered discounted mixed drinks that I just read about here. Anyway, the glasses were teeny tiny and the pour was the same. Also charged the card for drinks and $30 for who knows what. Will have to call tomorrow. read more

Is it under new leadership? Haven't been in a few years but it's one of the few places I recommend to others. It's always been cute and fun and yummy. Yesterday, it was not only empty but the food options changed for the worse and there's no longer waiter service? It used to be table seating with a hostess and a waitress. Now it's pay at the bar and sit wherever you want? Shockingly wouldn't go again. What a shame read more

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! read more

Thank you again for offering your beautiful space for the Ambitious Women of Color Association mixer!! It was perfect for what we needed. The food was on par, and the sliders were my favorite! We didn't have many turnouts, so I asked Vanessa to donate some of my order to another group that was appreciative. I have to share that Vanessa is a GEM! When I first came out to scout your space, she was our first impression and very welcoming. She walked us through the space and even recommended some lunch items from the menu for us to try that were delicious. Seeing her again on the day of our event took a huge weight off my shoulders because I knew we were in great hands! She checked in on us in a timely way and made sure we felt seen even when she started to get busy. I was very happy to see you all busy on a Sunday! Overall, I love your space, your staff and your food. Our founder was also impressed and we look forward to partnering with you in the near future! Also, thanks for always having Delirium on tap. My husband thanks you! read more

Came here with a group for an event. We ordered wings, fries, chips and salsa, quesadillas, and a grilled cheese. I didn't try the chips and salsa. The quesadillas are ok, I wouldn't get them again. The wings are an interesting flavor, but they are surprisingly very good. Really enjoyed the fries. With that, the best thing I ate was the grilled cheese. I would come back here just for grilled cheese. This is the best grilled cheese sandwich I have ever had at a restaurant, hands down. The service is pretty good, but a bit slow maybe since there were a few groups. Not sure why people are complaining about friendliness of the staff, they were all very nice to us. The outdoor space is large and comfortable. read more

I've hosted two 100-ish person events at Sorry Not Sorry's amazing back patio, and both have stunning successes. We really appreciate Sorry Not Sorry's communication and flexibility. Rowena, our point-of-contact was particularly responsive and gracious and offered us multiple different types of catering options. We opted to go with a cash bar, so we were able to reserve the space without a hefty deposit. Sorry Not Sorry's back patio is spacious enough to hold multiple large parties, so even though we were not the only event, we had plenty of room. We also enjoyed the ability to use a projector to cast images onto the wall. If you're thinking of hosting an event, you can't go wrong using Sorry Not Sorry. read more

Came here for a small gathering. Most of their seating is outside in the back patio. There is street parking around the spot but no dedicated lot. Typical bar. Nicer on the inside than the outside. read more

Rented out the inside bar for my 30th birthday and it was such a great time! Free to rent AND they let my guests (about 20-30) all do separate tabs. They even let us store our birthday cake in the fridge until we wanted it. Cocktails are so good, service is great, would definitely recommend! read more

The owner of Sorry Not Sorry is lovely! Love hearing about how this bar came to be. I've visited when they've had events and those are fun. I've gone for happy hour with coworkers when I used to work nearby, and I also held my farewell celebration there, too. It's not too far from the Metro. They have more outdoor seating than indoors, and it's pretty chill. Love getting their specials and deals. read more

Sorry Not Sorry - Bartender's choice cocktail - nosotros blanco pomegranate margarita - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Came here for an NYE event which was fun. Very chill, relaxed vibes. Perfect for a girls night or date night. We sat at the bar when we first got there and sat at a table when we came back later in the night. Customer service was great. Food combos also great--our bartender told us that it was only $2 to add food (we ordered an espresso martini which was $17 each) so ended up adding grilled cheese for $19. It was tasty and portions are a great size (we were originally going to share). Was told the chicken tacos are also tasty so maybe will try that next time. Loved it here and would come back. Only con I can think of right now is parking which is common in this area... we couldn't find street parking at that time so paid for valet ($40 for general and $100 for VIP - not sure what this includes). Split being friends it wasn't too bad but if I was alone would be pretty pricey. The valet guys were nice too though. read more

Hosted a birthday party for my wife here on Saturday. Super accommodating and flexible in setting everything up for us and our guests. The patio is a great spot, super spacious, kid and dog friendly. Looking forward to grabbing a drink here again. read more

I came in for DineLA and had such a great time. A cocktail + app, entree, and dessert for $35 + tip is an unbelievable price. The cocktail was delicious and definitely didn't skimp on the liquor. I started with the baby bok choi salad which was very bright and citrusy. The real star of the apps, however, was the kimchi quesadilla that my friend got. It was unbelievable and I would absolutely go back just for that. For my entree, I had the burger which was so delicious. The blue cheese on the burger isn't something I would normally go for but the balance was beautiful and I definitely ate it faster than I should. I finished the night with the tropical crepe cake which was so light and not too sweet. Most of the seating is outdoor in the back in the picnic-style tables, which was great for our party. Brandon, the general manager, came by to check in on us several times, which I appreciated. I will definitely be back, especially when that kimchi quesadilla makes it onto the permanent menu. read more

I came here for a networking mixer event and it was a vibe. The staff were friendly and prompt and I enjoyed their draft beer section. People often complain that drinks are so expensive when you go out but I think the prices for a bar on the westside are fair. The event was held in the outdoor back section of the bar and it was a cool space to drink and hang out! Also very nice and spacious. They have heat lamps for when it gets cold which was nice. read more

Came in on a Sunday afternoon for lunch. There's limited seating inside with a bar and one TV. Food was very mid. BBQ pulled chicken was not made with barbecue sauce so idk why it's called that. Plenty of outdoor space in back with corn hole and other games. Would be nice for an event or something with a large group. Not sure that I would come back, but glad I tried. read more

This is a great bar for a chill drink/bite or for big groups. I hosted my birthday party here and was able to reserve a section of the indoor bar for a group of 20 with no extra fee. My guests were able to order food or drinks at the bar and there's was plenty of space to sit or stand and move around. The music was at the perfect volume to be able to have a conversation. There's also a huge outdoor patio, with heaters in the winter. The staff was easy to work with and everything was very seamless! The drinks are average prices and quite strong but very tasty. There's a lot of food available too, including vegan and vegetarian options. The fries were my favorite item but the jackfruit tacos were great too and the portions were fairly large. The decor is cute with lots of pink and mid century modern furniture, and I would definitely recommend this spot for a birthday party! read more

This is my second visit to sorry not sorry the first time I went and it was drag queen bingo night and it was absolutely hysterical. Amazing handcrafted cocktails made with love... You can taste it in the cocktails! Great DJ spinning great tunes delicious food and cocktails. You cannot ask for Moore in a bar and little did I know there is a huge outdoor space behind the bar. You can host 150 people there easily. The owners in general managers are amazing humans kind caring interested in how people are enjoying themselves. There's even a wine class that happens, but I can't wait to attend this Bar has got it all! read more

I'm absolutely delighted by my decision to celebrate my birthday at this wonderful local restaurant last night! A few days ago, my husband and I came across a stand-up comedy show on Eventbrite, and since we needed a respite from all the oppressive misery going on in L.A. at the moment, we made reservations for dinner at the venue, Sorry Not Sorry. The moment we walked into the lovely backyard patio area, the beautiful, amazing Carlee was there to greet us. She seated us at the best table from which to watch the comedy show and treated us like absolute royalty the entire night! We ordered the burger, the banh mi sandwich, the garlic fries, and for cocktails: the Spicy Fish Sauce Margarita and the Early Morning Spin Class. All items were very tasty, but we would've ordered more cocktails if they were a bit more reasonably priced. The comedy show, called "Permission Slip," was a lot of fun, and we'll definitely return if they perform there again! Thank you to Carlee for making my birthday evening so very special and to the comedians for bringing much-needed smiles to our faces! read more

WoW, Where do I Start. From the moment you walk in the door, your eyes get a treat. The ambiance was amazing. Then your ears get to dance with the great music selection. Tapping my toes and bobbing my head from start to finish. in fact, me, my group and the staff dance a little to work off some of the damn good food. But the treat my mouth experienced was nothing shy of amazing. Chef Kim Vu, feed every tastebud in my mouth. The Sweet, the savory, the spicy, the Yummmmm. She graced us with her presence, and we just could stop smiling. I have only one complaint...and that is, that it had to end sometime. But the ending was short, because i enjoyed a few leftovers the next day while at home. Kind of like a replay of pleasure. WHO could ask for me? Me Please. Planning my Birthday party next. Chef, what's on the Menu next? read more

Quickly becoming the hotspot of the west side, this casual and fun place is a fantastic way to spend an evening. We came in for a film festival party and found a space outside in the back. The drinks were delish but we had to go inside to order anything. I never saw a waitress. Nit sure if it's always that way but happy to adapt. We went inside to order and felt very cozy and comfortable. Great ambiance and service was good. I'll try the food next time and update ya'll! Yes? This means we will definitely return! read more
