    Marie, you should've known better than to bring alcohol to the bar. That's your fault. Anyways I love this place. The one little gay boy that works on Fridays for muevelo is so handsome, nice, and kind. He's a 10/10. Plus he wears these booty shorts that look too good on him

    This is definitely a hidden gem in Downey. It's located right off of second Street and Downey blending in nicely so it's unnoticeable. I love a really good cheeseburger, especially when all the ingredients combined create perfection. This cheeseburger "the LAX" should be top ten for the month of December 2023 in LA county. This savory combination with its simplicity, makes it so amazing between the layers of patties, grilled onions, arugula and cheeses that it smashed between some soft, sweet buns like that of resembles Hawaiian rolls. Of course I could have added more to it like: jalapeños, lettuce, tomato, avocado or bacon, etc. but it was simply divine the way it was prepared. The owner "David" served me that evening and he offered a wcipa (west coast Indian pale ale) a new beer he was serving that paired well with the food. Seeing how happy David was talking about the items really showed me how much he cares for his business. The food and beer were tasty. I will return. .

    Visiting some family in the wonderful city of downey california. Far far away from home from sugar creek missouri . When my friends told me that there was a local karaoke / drag night At a bar that just got Branded by bar Rescue.. I just about jumped at the chance ! It's definitely not what i'm used to but i had a wonderful time encouraging those beautiful drag queens. Love your favorite whistle / whiteboy #LetsGo!#5Stars

    Ask the Community - The Epic Lounge

    What genre of music do they play here on Saturdays?

    Can yu wear short there?

    If you're a girl yes. Guys should wear pants and not baggy either. However on karaoke nights it's just a chill atmosphere. You can dressed relaxed including shirts ;).

    Is this place 21 and over?

    Most nights are 21+. It's best to check their page to see what events are happening on what days and the flyer should confirm the age requirements for that night.

    What's the music on Saturday? Is there a cover?

    Most nights do have a cover charge, however I recommend checking their Facebook page for events daily. Sometimes it's free admission before a certain time. 🤗. The music varies as well, check out their Facebook page to see what's happening next. 🎼🖤

    Hi, does anyone know if this place is wheelchair accessible?

    Yes

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!

    Everything was good EXCEPT the STEAK.. No... Seriously…read more This was probably the biggest steak disappointment I've had in a while. The place comfy, the ambience is dark and bar-like, the drink vibes look chill, I have no complaints about the service. The service was good and the staff was nice. All this makes the steak disappointment that much worse for me. We ordered Ribeye and Shrimp Salmon Lobster Mac and Cheese Asparagus Lobster Roll (Sushi) A drink from the bar The Steak.. The steak came served on a cast-iron skillet. I ordered it medium-well. It arrived a little more medium than usual, but that was not an issue. What disappointed me was the puddle the steak was sitting in. Traditionally said puddle is a mixture of butter, thyme, and whatever seasonings you used on the steak when cooking it. In this case, that puddle was flavorless. It really tasted like the steak was just sitting in a flavorless oil. The steak was very bland, very difficult to think someone could send out a piece of meat out like that, especially when you find out what it costs. It was not worth it and not worth the final tab unfortunately. Really wanted to find a steak W for Downey but I don't see myself being interested in this place again.
