I recently had a birthday party here and I cannot say enough great things about the owners! They…read morewere always available to me and were very accommodating. I thought it was a great price and the venue is so cute. I would highly recommend hosting an event here of any kind. They have a dj booth and a stage, in case live music is your thing. There is ample parking in the front and back as well as spacious bathrooms. The drinks were great too! They will definitely have me as a return customer.

We had the opportunity to witness greatness at The View with the artist Donald Hayes, and let me…read moretell you -- he brought it. That saxophone was TALKING. He did the damn thang, and the vibe in the room was everything. Truly an amazing night. The venue itself is beautiful, and entry was seamless -- no hassle getting in, which I always appreciate. There is a 2-drink minimum, but no complaints there because the drinks did not disappoint. Now, let's talk food... We ordered chicken tacos, which took so long to come out I honestly forgot to take a picture. My hubster ordered the chicken wings and fries. Unfortunately, the fries were definitely undercooked, and the chicken was very light-skinned -- it could have been cooked much more. The food overall needs work, and that part was disappointing compared to the rest of the experience. That said, the artist + atmosphere combo was top-tier. I would absolutely come back for the music and the vibe, but next time, I'd skip the food and stick to drinks only. Great night, unforgettable performance -- just room for improvement in the kitchen.

I had a great time. I attended as an honoree, the Community Reception of MPAC, Thank Rev. Tulloss…read morefor the honor and Steve Bradford for the kind introduction. A full multi purpose music venue for DJ inspired events or live performances. There is a stage, booth and table seating, dance floor, large video screen and professional stage lighting. Located in Torrance, View Music Bar has plenty of free open air parking. There is a full bar and a limited menu serving food items such as flatbreads, wings and sliders. The drinks are a bit overpriced but great venue space.

False Advertising and Total Failure of a "Speakeasy"…read more This place should not call itself a speakeasy. According to their website, they are strict about dress code, reservations, and no large parties. None of that was enforced. People arrived wearing sports clothes, tennis shoes, and flip-flops, and a group of more than 10 people was allowed in. That group was loud, drunk, and screaming, completely destroying any speakeasy ambiance. We had a reservation booked one week in advance for 2 tables of six, yet by 8:30 pm, we were told no food was available, despite the bar being almost empty. The water was already on the table when we arrived and tasted strongly of chlorine, with no ice. The waitress was clearly new, untrained, and unprepared. She did not know the menu, didn't know how to take an order properly, and provided no guidance whatsoever. There was one bartender Ricardo, who took over an hour to prepare cocktails and showed no sense of urgency or care. The dramatic cocktail descriptions sounded impressive, but the drinks did not match the descriptions at all. Because of the delays, we were never even able to properly toast or celebrate our friend. The charcuterie board took forever and arrived with an absurd amount of cheese and only six pieces of bread. To make things worse, part of the food we ordered never arrived at all. The live jazz band advertised and promised never showed up. When asked, the staff responded with: "I don't know, they were supposed to be here. I don't have their phone number." That level of disorganization is unacceptable. At the end of the night, we were shocked to receive a check close to $600 for two tables, despite each person only having one cocktail and shared food. The bartender, Ricardo, approached us and said: "Well, sorry, we really tried tonight! It wasn't the best, but we tried." Honestly, that comment made the experience even more frustrating. I can't imagine how bad it would have been if they hadn't "tried."That statement perfectly summarizes the problem -- trying is not enough when everything fails. I would not recommend this place for a speakeasy experience. This is not a speakeasy. It's a poorly run bar hiding behind a concept it does not deliver. Do not recommend.

I give it a 1 because 0 was not an option. Absolute disaster. Avoid this place at all costs. What…read morewas supposed to be a classy night celebrating a 50th birthday turned into a complete nightmare. This is not a speakeasy, it's a tiny, rundown bar pretending to be something it's not. The staff was inexperienced, dismissive, and unprofessional. Drinks were outrageously overpriced and took forever to arrive. The food was a joke, a $60 charcuterie board made up of cheap grocery store cheese, ham, and crackers that didn't come close to justifying the price. We were served warm water that tasted like chlorine, and the response from staff was literally "I don't know, I just work here." At one point both waitresses vanished, leaving the bartender overwhelmed and everything grinding to a halt. The live jazz band they advertise never showed up, and staff had no explanation or contact info. The so-called dress code was completely ignored, with groups in jeans and sneakers flooding in, turning the place loud, chaotic, and classless. This place delivers nothing it promises. It's not a speakeasy, it's a poorly run bar that shouldn't be in business. Strongly do not recommend, and honestly, I want my money back.

I had to flag our assigned waitress to get some adult beverages. Ordered House wine and my wife ordered a sweet cocktail. We kept ordering drinks all night. The problem with that is that our waitress had to get flagged everytime! She never checked up on us. She attended to those that had reserved table seating. Very dissapointed on customer service. Overall the show was classy. Great choreography, vibing to some reggaeton music. No complaints about the show. We had fun! This place is the only Burlisque show that I know or aware of that is in the Long Beach area. Check the website to view the lineup. Category changes everytime. Great ambiance with clean restrooms. Parking will be on the street or timed parking structure. I would comeback. My experience only, yours might be better.

Came here for an emo night event if I'm being honest. I don't drink much but crazy that is Red Bull…read moreby itself Is 10 dollars. I mean it is a bar so kinda expected. Will say it was definitely spacious. It would be nice if they had some standing tables or even more places to sit without it being for only service bottle girls. I will say everyone's experience shall be different since a random person kinda punched me and left me a bruise due to a mosh pit. But again this really isn't the clubs fault. Overall it's not bad for a bar. It was nice that they had an elevator since it's in the second floor. About is accessible to ppl who need to use the elevator!! Also one thing, maybe be more thorough with security. They didn't check bags and just checked for ID only. Oooo also don't be warned with parking!! It's better to park in a garage you all!!!

I neither drink nor am I a regular at bars/clubs but this past Saturday, I decided to check 4…read moreestablishments in Downtown Long Beach, At The Top being one of them. This place is located on the 2nd floor of Shannon's On Pine Irish Pub & Sports Bar. The first thing that stood out (after having been to Sevilla Nightclub just a mere hour before visiting this place) was how lax security was. And by lax, I mean they don't pat you or check you for guns at all. Cover IS free so that's definitely a plus. The whole place smells of marijuana smoke and the floor was kind of sticky. They do give out free water, which is nice but they don't have disposable cups, rather they have regular plastic clubs that I'm assuming are washed regularly? The music was ok. Not my thing but I can definitely groove to some Hip-Hop/R&B every now and then. The patrons were friendly and it was easy to make conversation and connect with others. Some of the people were already high as a kite there, though, lol. Again, I can't comment on the drinks or their prices, since all I usually have is soda, or water if it's available. Overall, a bit of an improvement over Sevilla in some respects, and not as good as Sevilla in others. Final Score: 3/5, just like Sevilla Nightclub down the street.

The…read morehistorical aviation theme makes this venue truly one of a kind, and our guests couldn't stop talking about how cool the space and atmosphere were. The event included appetizers, dinner, bar and dancing for about 80 people. We were able to bring in our own food, décor, and alcohol (w/licensed bartender), and when we arrived the space was already set up according to our floor plan. They provided large dining tables with tablecloths, and unique furnishings we were able to use for the bar, appetizers and dinner setup plus the cockpit of the plane used in the movie Conair as a photo op! Also, cool vintage airline food carts which we used to pass snacks and drinks throughout the party! We brought in additional pub height tables, and they allowed early delivery so we wouldn't have to bring them ourselves. What really sets MotoArt apart is the team. They were incredible partners from start to finish--staying on site throughout the entire event to make sure everything went smoothly and handling all of the cleanup at the end after we packed our materials out. Kevin at MotoArt was a great partner in the planning of this event. Very flexible, accommodating and responsive. The night was a huge success, and we couldn't have asked for a better venue or experience. Highly, highly recommend MotoArt Studios for any event where you want to wow your guests!
