“Deep in the electric heart of Tarzana, California—tucked between gas stations and ghost stories—lurks a legendary watering hole where the spirits of rock, funk, and full-blown chaos still stomp the floorboards. It’s called Maui Sugar Mill Saloon, and if you walk through those creaky doors on the right night, you’re not entering a bar—you’re entering a living myth.

It was one of those nights.

Buck Stallion—part velvet hammer, part cosmic hype man—stood center stage, hosting like the reincarnation of a game show host who got lost at a rave and decided to never come back. The crowd howled before he even touched the mic. He wasn’t just introducing the show—he was conjuring it.

First up was Nerdy, hoodie up, eyes locked, fingers flying across his fretboard like he was inputting cheat codes into the universe. No vocals. Just riffs. Pure, distilled boss-level energy that sounded like a Sega Genesis console got struck by lightning.

Then came SpeedyFromda9, moving like his sneakers were powered by caffeine and prophecy. His flow was razor sharp, slicing through the beat with a voice that sounded like it had seen too much and decided to weaponize the truth. The whole room leaned forward like the floor tilted toward him.

And just when things were about to cool off—Doctor Striker took the stage. Think gothic punk warrior meets cybernetic cult leader. He and his band delivered a set that felt like getting electrocuted in the middle of a haunted sermon. Guitars screamed, drums exploded, and somewhere in the chaos, the audience found religion. Or at least a reason to sweat through their favorite black t-shirts.

The bartenders—Ariel and Sam—kept the drinks flowing like they were summoned by incantation. The sound? Flawless, thanks to the wizard behind the knobs, Nubs, who made every snare hit feel like thunder in your chest.

The walls were thick with stories. Dave Grohl, Jack Black, Slash—they’d all played here. Not as VIPs. As pilgrims. Worshippers. Just like the rest of us.

By the end of the night, nobody wanted to leave. They lingered like kids who didn’t want recess to end. Because at Maui Sugar Mill Saloon, the music isn’t just sound—it’s a living, breathing jungle. And when it roars, you feel it.

Five stars. Ten shots. Infinite vibes.
This wasn’t just a show—it was Buck Stallion’s Mellow Saturday Night Fever… and the jungle still echoes.“

“Docs is one of the most fun bars to play. My band BlackHeart played there every month and the staff treated us great! Sarah always communicated and kept us in the loop. All of the bartenders and door guys made us feel welcome and enjoyed our rock style of music. We love it there and BlackHeart thanks them and will hopefully be back in house soon! Thanks guys! Docs Inn rocks!“

“A must place for a sports“

“A classic, traditional Jazz bar with old fashioned friendly rules, a casual, welcoming vibe and long-standing live music.

Don't dress like a slob, but you don't have to dress up. If you're in old Canoga Park, Casey's is not to be missed.“

“Dee did such an incredible job. She was very polite and professional. She was super attentive and overall helpful. Definitely would come earlier in the day as the dinner period can get a bit loud but regardless a very benevolent experience!“

“Local bar, friendly staff, friendly patrons, pool table and darts. 🥂“

“Came in for a drink and to check out the area since we are new to the area. The place was kind of small and majority of the people inside were older. The tables had all the dirty cups on there and were still there when we were leaving. We ordered double shots of tequila and a few micheladas. We saw people eating McDonalds in there. They have darts to play and the music was nice,“

“Beautiful restaurant and bar with tasty food and great service. I’ll be back!“

“Always a wonderful culinary adventure as well as good wines and craft cocktails! The bar staff can be quite creative and always friendly. Plus, the atmosphere is fresh and hip- Industrial yet cozy.“

“Luis was awesome! Excellent service!“

“The food was great, vibe was amazing.
The staff were nice, but the food took for ever, be ready to wait about 45 minutes for your food to arrive.
Might not come back here just for this reason and this only if we are planning on dinner.
Having that said, if you are craving drinks, definitely your spot is here.“

“Great food service and the atmosphere was wonderful.“

“They have the best KJ in town!“

WE WAITED 1 HOUR AND 10 MINUTES FOR OUR FOOD. 5 of had to wait 30 minutes too enter which wasn’t that bad but then had too wait 40 minutes for our food, outrageous! I understand this is a new restaurant with a lot of customers but you’ve got to manage little better. The max I would personally wait is 45 minutes. Anyway the music was WAY TOO LOUD with the noise of the waiters and other customers talking you cannot add music that loud. Maybe a lower the volume a little and it might be fine. The food was ok but the chicken sandwich wasn’t crunchy at all but it was really spicy which I admire. The pizza was good too but the dough was not crunchy. The cheesesteak egg rolls were really good and had no complains. The food was surprisingly cheap so that’s also a positive thing.I don’t mean too ruin your business and stuff but I hope when I come back in 2-3 months most things of the complaints would be gone. A will delete this review and write a better one if done. Again, I hope your business becomes an amazing restaurant but there are some adjustments needed. I hope the owner sees this review and responds

Edit : I said I will be coming here
again but I updated this a little late, food was great, waiting time was a little shorter but still too long, and the atmosphere was fine I think they turned down the music. Way better then last time and would recommend“

“Un lugar muy agradable te atienden súper bien“

“rib eye steak is the best“

“To serve in the same spot, with the same spirit, since 1958 — for 67 years — is not just admirable, it’s a quiet triumph. It tells its own story: of consistency, care, and character. The choice of the name Sutter’s Mill is no coincidence; it echoes with the very roots of California’s bold beginnings — a subtle nod to legacy.

Over the years, we’ve brought many guests to your doors, and each time, we’ve found the same charm: a graceful blend of old-school warmth, elegant décor, and service that still remembers the value of attentiveness.

Sutter’s Mill isn’t just a restaurant — it’s a keeper of tradition in a world that rushes to forget. Please, carry this torch forward, untouched by fleeting trends, and keep shining for at least another 67 years.

Thank you. 🤌🏻🫶🏻“

“I’ve been coming to this spot since it was the Celtic Raven, and I happened to walk in on Chela’s Cantina during its soft launch. I’ve been a regular ever since day one. The owner is phenomenal, and the crowd it attracts is just as great! friendly, welcoming, and full of good vibes.

There’s always something to do here: enjoy music, grab some food and drinks, hop on karaoke, or play a round of pool. While the alcohol selection is smaller compared to bigger bars, it actually introduced me to wine spirits and gave me a new appreciation for trying something different.

If you’re looking for a small, local atmosphere with a strong sense of community, I highly recommend Chela’s Cantina. It’s truly a hidden gem!“

“Arrived on a Sunday early evening and it was not busy. I ordered the carnitas sliders and a half order of New York wings. The wings were good but I did not enjoy the sliders. Their menu had other items I would try if I was ever in the area again. They have NFL sunday ticket and have a good amount of TV's for the size of the place. If you like a relaxed atmosphere, you would enjoy this place like I did. Shout out to Sara who was friendly and attentive.“

“A gem of a dining destination with an elevated but accessible menu. Patio seating is a must, and coyote fries are a can’t-miss—as is the entire wine list.“

“Finney’s a solid choice if you’re looking for an American gastropub that’s family friendly and offers quality food and drinks. I’ve been to at least four locations and they’re all pretty great. The only reason I didn’t give the food five stars is that the food portions are a bit on the smaller side. For example, if you’re an active adult male (like my hubby) and you order shrimp tacos as your entree, you’ll likely need to add a salad with protein or an appetizer. Aside from that minor note, highly recommend!“

“We went in for drinks and they did not disappoint! We had the Piña para La Niña and Paloma and they were delicious!! The atmosphere is lively and will go back!!“

“This restaurant offers a great mix of classic and modern dishes. I tried the roasted chicken with herbs, and it was flavorful and juicy. The side of roasted potatoes was crispy and delicious. The service was attentive without being intrusive.“

“This place is fantastic, the workers are super welcoming and friendly like if we know each other. They really help in any possible way. They don't rush you to order, they answer all questions asked, and never in a bad mood. They are just beyond nice workers. 1st time I stopped by this place was a week ago while going back home from Fillmore and after working all day the best thing to treat your body is with a nice cup of coffee. As they have a wide variety of options I didn't know which one to go for, I just wanted something different from most places, and this place has plenty of options, anyway I think I got the blended nutty irishman, it was absolutely delicious, personally I really loved it, as I was driving around the corner and there is not Makena in Huntington Park I decided to turn around I get a 2nd coffee cause I didn't know when I would be back to work in the area, and my 2nd coffee was as great as the 1st coffee. And today Nov-12, I decided to go for another one, same great service and great coffee, I got the Santa's cookies, absolutely delicious and the girl who took care of my order, she is extremely helpful and friendly , while I was trying to choose which drink to get she didn't even rush me or didn't even get upset, because I didn't know what to order , I just didn't ask her name but she is super friendly, thanks I highly recommend this coffee shop to anyone which is perfect for kids as well. Plus they have food, tacos, burritos, burgers and soft serve for extra dessert. I was lucky today, I got a free meal card, thank you so much again. Personally I really liked this coffee, so flavorful and very good prices.“

“Had a wonderful meal. The chef was awesome and interactive“

“Great atmosphere, the music and the two beautiful belly dancers you have performing on Saturday nights are awesome. The food, drinks and service was incredible. We will definitely be back!!“

“They have a huge selection of Beer on Tap and Thank goodness they had Angry Orchard as I am the only person who prefers wine🤓❤️“

“Great place to grab a bite to eat, a drink, with friendly staff and regulars! Great service!“

“When we arrived a large party, with lots of noisy kids, were preparing to leave. However, it took them a while, so it was noisy and chaotic. But, when they left we really enjoyed the peace and quiet of the outdoor patio. You never believe you're sitting next to the very busy parking lot. Kevin was our waiter, again. He was very apologetic for the chaos and, as on previous occasions, very friendly and efficient. My friend wasn't hungry, so she only ate 1/2 of her 1/2 roasted beet salad. She did enjoy it and took the rest to go. I had my usual pasta with goat cheese and marinara sauce. I was hungry and ate my entire dish, whereas I normally take half to go. It was delicious, of course. Overall, we had a nice lunch and catch up. I'll be back.“

“Great atmosphere and friendly service! I don’t make it to this area often, but when I do I make sure to bring friends to experience the vibe. Fans of Alice and Wonderland or The Matrix will dig it, but anyone who wants to experience a surreal bar is in for a treat!“
