50 Best Bars near Alhambra

“The atmosphere is very good, it feels very domestic, and the band performance is also very exciting. The price of bartending is not expensive. I ordered a lot of food. My favorites were the mutton skewers and duck neck, which were delicious. Suitable for chatting and drinking with friends“

“Came here on a Wednesday and was lucky to be seated for drinks by the hostess. It was my second time here. And I always enjoy the drink and dark ambiance. Mixologist are super helpful. Definitely will be back to try food. Very small place, so reservations on weekends are probably best.“

“I came for a Mother’s day dinner where a private room was reserved. Enthusiastic service staff and excellent tableside service Good dining environment Variety of dishes and many choices Large parking lot and convenient parking There are other shops nearby, so you can kill time before and after eating.
We ordered a variety of dishes from the menu to share. All of the dishes from the lobster,turbot fish,soup,chicken,and crispy squab were freshly prepared. Every dish was delicious! Service was great and consistent throughout the night. Staff would check in every now and then to see if we needed anything and would immediately remove anything we were done with and bring anything we needed. I would highly recommend the private dining for any group gatherings or celebrations. It was nice to have our own space for the night and food and service were exceptional.“

“Not the cleanest place or the friendliest service the night I came in. They keep it toasty in here, and there is only one restroom per gender that single person locks. Waited over 1 hour for the restroom and had to go elsewhere to pee. Didn't try the food or drinks. I'm not a big pool fan anyway, but if you are, this place is great! Just use the restroom before you get here.“

“I don’t know how ‘hidden’ of a gem this is - but it is a gem. Such a unique place seeing as the only other one in the world is in London. Food is stellar and there are both British and American options on the menu. The display of motorcycles creates a fun atmosphere. There is a shop, barber, tattoo parlour, and display room for motorcycles as well as many other places to hang out here. Must visit if you are an auto or motorcycle enthusiast while in LA“

“From the outside, The Airliner looks like a dive bar serving standard dive bar fare. But make no mistake, Chef Vinh Nguyen has created a stunning menu of excellent, creative, and absolutely delicious food!

We had a tasting for my daughter's wedding, and we were served such terrific items as Green Chop Salad (spicy thair dressing), Hunan BBQ pork ribs, Green Curry Crispy Rice, onion noodles, and tater tots with Gochujang glaze.

I forgot to take pictures, but everything looked as great as it tasted.

The next time we are in LA, we look forward to going there for dinner, and we couldn't be happier that Chef Nguyen will be catering our daughter's wedding!“

“Was super happy with our dinner at Hippo. Every dish was delicious. The brussel sprouts and cauliflower starters had excellent flavors. All the pastas we tried had incredible depth of flavor without being overly heavy or greasy. The hippo rolls and table focaccia were excellent and the chicken thighs were to die for. Only thing that was lackluster was the passion fruit gelato. Fun vibe, lots of seating, and great service!“

“Great beer, great outdoor vibe with music on the weekend.“

“The Angeleno Spritz was just what I needed after a long day of minor disappointments, that and the genuine smile from the tattooed guy working the bar this evening who was refreshingly upbeat and worked the room like a pro. So glad I stopped in!“

“Great analog music and excellent drinks. The bartenders and dj's are top shelf.“

“Not remotely the best cocktails you'll ever have, but the building itself is an Art Deco wonder that really has to be seen to be believed. Kudos to the current owners for keeping it in what looks like its original condition! Well worth a visit.“

“Unique & Friendly, for motorcycle lovers“

“Haven't been here for a couple of years, as the last time we didn't enjoy the company of rats. They didn't even offer to buy in. This last time we went to a different area and the brunch was great. Truly like the croissant style cinnamon rolls and breve. We also had both types of benedicts and they were great.“

“We had a fine dining experience at Katsin restaurant. Food was delicious, creatively chosen menu, service was very good, entertainment made our dining festive. Thank you to chef for such creative and unique dishes. Will come back again to celebrate high taste and service of very caring staff.“

“Great place for a late night hangout with friends. Love music!“

“Wow. This is a hidden gem in DTLA. Highly recommend unless you're a jerk. Ha. Great drinks, great food and amazing service. Felt like I was just hanging with old friends having a very enjoyable evening. This is gonna be my go-to spot anytime I am hanging downtown.“

“Come drink here and enjoy yourself“

“I've been there once and it was fine last time. The cocktails were quick and the atmosphere was good. Overall, it was pretty good“

“Such a vibe! Had an amazing experience. Highly recommend.“

“Beautiful bar. Modern with a home feel. The ambiance is very chill. Large and wide open window on one side gives you a good view of Sunset Blvd. opposite is the patio that has the food. You can order via a QR code and get a text when your food is ready. Drink menu is great! Bartenders are friendly.“

“Super cute place with very chic vibes! Delicious drinks and great food - came here for coffee(matcha) and brunch - everything was on point! Now I want to come back in the evening for cocktails - they’ve got an amazing cocktail menu as well!“

“Amazing food. Plate licking sauces, organic,locally sourced food. Korean fusion. Did I mention organic pickled everything. Enzyme rich food. Beyond healthy. Humble little hope in the wall run by a husband and wife team. Dude went to Korea to study with the most famous vegan nun chef in Korea. A must go to for anyone who loves food and especially loves fusion with organic and very well priced. He should charge Much more but they don’t.“

“Great little community watering hole. Beer only and no food but there is a fantastic food truck out front.

Kid-friendliness: Not kid friendly.

Wheelchair accessibility: Front door is wheelchair accessible“

“This place is always packed, even on weeknights. It’s a testament to the beverages and service. Drinks menu rotates so there’s always something new and interesting to try. You can also always get a classic cocktail as well. Beer and wine are also served here. There is a regular food menu with larger portions from opening until about 9 or 10 pm when they switch to their late-night menu which consists of small plates to pick at. Theres plenty of heat lamps outside for when it’s cold you can still sit comfortably during the winter.“

“Breakfast menu from 9am to 1pm!
However, there will be no coffee after 13:00 :((
I couldn't get a second drink because it was just before 1pm. However, it was a restaurant where you could relax and relax before the game at Dodger Stadium (^^)“

“It's one of my favorite spots for a drink and tacos! The food is delicious. I have gotten the al pastor shrimp tacos, and my friend gets the short rib tacos. We love them! Love the ambiance, and the service is always great. Look forward to coming back every time. Street parking can be tough, but it's not a bad little walk if you have to park a bit further. Nice neighborhood.“

“You need to email The Speakeasy to get the password of the day. Jeremy, the manager, has created an amazing cocktail list with creative drinks. His friendly demeanor during the evening set the tone for his staff to provide top notch service and drinks. We will be coming back soon!“

“Simple fun, relaxed atmosphere, great little place“

“Been coming to this bar for quite a few years and there’s been a few changes here and there. Overall though, it’s a bar I still very much enjoy on my days off or right after work.

I love this bar in the morning when it just opens. Tbvh the BEST time to come. You get the special and get to enjoy their patio and the fresh air and plants. Love love loveee this place for that. Staff is really nice and attentive any time of the day.

Great selection of cocktails and beers and always served with chilled glasses. Atmosphere is hip and chill and great for conversations or being alone.

Food thoughhh hmmm Nawh I wouldn’t do it 😭 the fries yes. Idk since they changed their menu I’m not into it tbvh. Portions are too small for how pricy. Too many restaurants around to eat here, mainly a bar.
For this review I got the shrimp tacos. Felt like shrimp you would put in top of pasta not tacos. Didn’t enjoy them sadly. The sushi is oki from here if you are looking to eat here.“

“I had fun! The cocktails are concocted with love and consideration. Delicious and flavorful. The staff is helpful with recommendations and kind. The bar is very popular and space is limited but once you get some room it's nice
We also had fries which were also well seasoned and flavorful.“

“amazing food, service and home feeling“

“whipped feta app was incredible, it's been almost a week and I'm still thinking about how good it was! the drinks were all memorable as well. was super busy when we went but worth the wait. can't wait to go back for dinner!“

“A great place to be in Los Angeles‼️“

“Really good food! The manager fit us in even there was an issue with our reservation. He was so sweet. The menu is a bit confusing/overwhelming, but our waiter Nessie knew exactly what we should order and hooked us up. The miso sea bass was incredible.“

“I was told to review for a free Thai Iced Tea: Good atmosphere, the decor and lighting is beautiful! Good service, I went on a busy Friday night so it took a little longer to get the server's attention but they were soooo nice when they attended me. Not the best Thai food I've had, although I'm not a good guide for identifying Thai food authenticity. That said, the Pad Thai was not pleasing to my palette. Personally, it was too salty.
I do like that they their happy hour ends at 8pm on a Friday night, which is pretty late compared to other restaurants, and they are open late as well. Pad Thai -$17 + $4 to add chicken“

“Absolutely loved macho nachos, Korean style wings, hot dogs with bacon excellent“

“Love love love it. Get the wild shrimp, Mac and cheese and wagyu ribeye.“

“Best bar in Hi Fi Perhaps the world.“

“Good enough for Richard Pryor, good enough for me!“

“Great place to come and hangout.“

“Well, this is my first time here and apparently, according to a buddy, it's changed a lot!

This place has a Japanese cocktail bar aesthetic to it, heavy wood paneling, well made drinks, Japanese whiskeys. Keen and detail oriented eyes oversaw it's restructure....

I like the ambiance here, the drinks are reasonably priced for LA and kudos to the barkeeps for the evening, a woman with the best hips and a man with a chiseled jaw and a smirk slung well-made drinks. I'd come back.“

“Bring proof of vax family“

“First and foremost! Ask for Justin to make you a drink! Let him do his thing! Amazing mixologist! I’m so happy we decided to stop here instead of the whiskey place next door! The food was like mouth porn! The atmosphere amazing! The only reason I’m taking a star off…. The bathroom was kinda cringe! You guys can’t have that amazing place and the bathroom be like a dive bar… dress it up and clean it up!“

“Grabbed a quick dinner and drinks here. You just walk in, open seating. Scan a QR code to see the menu and then order at the bar. You’ll get your drinks at the bar and then dinner is brought out to you. Then to close your tab you have to go back to the bar which can be a bit of a wait unfortunately. But not too bad. The tacos were great. We went right before happy hour was ending and got $5 tacos. They were really good.“

“Not long ago I tried the Library bar, and the service was impeccable - truly attentive without being intrusive. It created a relaxed and sophisticated atmosphere perfectly suited to enjoying their well-crafted drinks. A very pleasant experience overall“

“pinball and atmosphere. if your friends even want to judge then they aren't your friends 😆#puropari“

“Everything about this place is considerable and is a good place to hang out with friends on the weekend. But Monday is karaoke night and I had a great night and great experience with a lot of fun people. And the bar staff very enthusiastic feedback during karaoke thank you and I'll see you again soon Big Foot“

“Very good service! Awesome bartender!“

“It’s a chill place with medium sound levels, not loud enough to hurt, but loud enough to fill the space. It’s got a great seating arrangement with tables, booths, bar, patio, and outdoor seating.

On the menu is food (if you come early enough), great craft beers that are fresh with clean tap lines, wine, seltzers, and N/A options. Some of the beers can be a little on the flatter side (just a bit). The service is prompt and polite.

It’s good for groups of all sizes (I would call ahead just in case it’s busy) and solo people as solo patrons do visit also so you won’t feel too weird, although most are in groups“

“The people, the service, and the whole experience has definitely changed my thoughts on what a "night at the bar" truly is! That being said the only warning I have is that you might have too much fun and trade whatever fine drinking establishment you currently attend, for this precious little jewel; hiding in Montrose. There is something for everybody. They are doing something right at Gilligan's. It truly checks all the boxes. Sports✓Pool✓Darts✓Karaoke✓ I Love this place and will continue coming back for the foreseeable future and I am making the trip from the West End of the Valley....Uber Loves my new found obsession with this bar that makes you feel like you're on the cast of Cheers or Coach or dare I say; Happy Days!(but not tacky or outdated) just this familar feeling of being apart of a family! Need I say more? Whether it's your birthday, that new promotion, or you just want to celebrate waking up another day; this is the spot to go! See ya there....I mean here!! Lmao“
