    a band playing on stage

    Great place to hang out, they have a good draft beer selection. The staff is friendly and the live music ROCKS, they have five bands tonight..."it's Battle of the Bands" Great Retro Music by the DJ too.

    Service was horrible. I usually come in with my friends, we buy each other drinks. It was my turn to buy the group drinks and when I handed my friend my $100 dollar bill to pay for said drinks, the owner, Kayla, and the bartender explain to me the $100 I handed her was fake because it did not have a UV strip that lights up when a UV flashlight hits it. Mind you I use Navy Federal, lol, and this bill was a 2006 version still in use, I know I checked because I thought maybe she was right. So I asked if they had the marker that checks if it's counterfeit, they of course said no. Ok, all good I just paid the homie instead. I come back May 3rd, 2023, try and buy some drinks hand a $50 and they do not have change for a $50. Lol like girl just tell me, "you're no longer welcome here," instead of your sly crap, I was in the Army, I'm pretty sure I can take it. Anyway, besides her being a weirdo for some reason place is aight only cus the people from Poor Denny's, Embers, Junction and Gardens stop by once in a while.

    The bartenders were high af they overcharged us. Bad math. Don't be high at work. Ask the prices to make sure you are not overcharged.

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

Could not have been happier. From the moment we walked through the heavy wooden door (fancy!) until we left- the host, the waitress, server, manager and even the owner were amazingly attentive and welcoming. When it's your birthday they put a nice sign at your table and everyone stops by to wish you an amazing bday. They also check in to make sure you're having a good time and enjoying your delicious meal. Now for the food: fresh, al dente and tasty. All adjectives you want running through your mind after the first bitesss. We ordered stuffed mushroom- hot and nicely seasoned. Mushrooms not overcooked and stuffing not overly cheesy. The shrimp linguine another hit with fresh tomatoes and jumbo shrimp with a nice snap. The light seasoning with lots of garlic was just perfect. We also ordered the beef short ribs. My friend said it melted on her mouth and the fresh mash potatoes- just right. Did I mention the portions were huge! Lots of goodies to take with us. To add to the dining experience we watched as patrons steadily came and went throughout the evening. You can tell this is a favorite for many. There were High-5s, handshakes and lots of "Welcome back friends!" Just an overall beautifully decked out neighborhood restaurant with so much heart and soul. I heard that the restaurant has been handed down from their grandparents... I'm sure they would be very proud. Highly recommend.

    This is an established restaurant on Whittier Blvd in Pico Rivera just off the 605 fwy. It's…read morebetter to access the parking lot off Gregg Rd instead of the "main" entrance on Whittier which is easy to miss. Food is reasonably priced and tastes good. Obviously steaks but chicken and seafood are also ok the menu. We did the Sunday brunch for $49 which included bottomless mimosa, champagne, or fruit juices; a starter salad or parfait and a breakfast entree of your choice. I chose the sirloin steak and eggs. Very good value! Our server was excellent! She kept our drinks full and explained everything on the menu! She also went out of her way to meet all the requests from our large group (including our bill splitting request). Ambience is best described as dark. Not spooky or gothic; just no windows and lighting that requires you to use your phones as flashlights. For good food at a reasonable price with great service - highly recommended ; just bring a light with you.

Tiffany always gives quick, friendly, excellent service at the bar and knows how to make a great cocktail. Her knowledge is extensive and varied, and I've never heard her say she doesn't know how to make a drink, no matter what has been presented to her. Even when they're slammed, Tiffany has never been short or rude or grumpy towards me or any other customer that I've seen. 3) The food: classic, huge portions. I always have enough leftovers for a second meal later in the day or the following day. I love this establishment and hope it remains open for many more years!
