One of the worst experiences I've had at a restaurant.

We were practically ignored the entire time, food took extremely long to come out, and by the time it came out, it was almost cold. Grilled cheese and hot chicken tasted bland and undercooked, and the small plate of fries felt like a rip off based on the price.

If you're not an old white person ordering alcohol, you will get ignored.

If you're here because of La La Land, just take the picture and leave, don't bother spending money here

Went here for salsa and bachata night on a Tuesday while visiting from out of town and looking for a last-minute event. The usual 10:30 crowd spike doesn’t apply on Tuesdays, so it’s better to come earlier — around 9 — when the atmosphere is livelier.

The music was great, mostly salsa with some bachata mixed in. The crowd leaned a bit older, and the leader-to-follower ratio was decent at one point. Drinks are available for purchase, free water is provided, and there’s a $10 cover charge at the door.

Overall, a solid spot for a fun Tuesday night of dancing. Set your expectations to a low to mid level Friday/Saturday night.

Wine not!?

One of the better places to catch live music anywhere really in LA. However, don't leave anything behind and watch your jackets. Throughout the years, we've had jackets stolen and somehow, if you leave anything there. It's never there the next day. They're lost and found is more like lost and stolen.

Always loved the lighthouse, and love coming with friends and family. Fun atmosphere.... as long as the bouncer isn't there, he's a consistent bummer!!!!! Plenty of other good spots with happy ppl who will treat you kindly:)

Awkward floorplan with stage in the worst spot possible. But overall it has a good vibe to hang out. Seems to always be understaffed and the staff they have are barely hanging on even when not at full capacity.
