“Amazing and calm dining experience with enjoyable food and cocktails. I am thankful for this space as there is not many like it.

Food is fresh and delicious. I wouldn’t go here super hungry but it’s a great place for a romantic or lunch dates.

The salad was sooooo good! Highly recommend with meat and not! I didn’t know the vegan popcorn chicken was mushroom 😭 personally not a mushroom fan. They felt a lil greasy but still yummy paired with the shoestring fries. Vegan dog was great as well and would order again. My fiancé enjoyed the wings and the chicken in the salad.

We both agree that the drinks could be a lil heavier (lol bad or good, not sure) but they are still well crafted cocktails and will be coming back again for the drinks and food!

The bar and atmosphere itself is CUTE! Enjoy the colors and music going on. Not loud and was able to enjoy conversation with my girl. They have games as well to help newer friends or couples break the ice. Great place for friends, lovers, and going alone.

For larger groups of like 5+ I think it would be respectful to call ahead of time as the space is smallish and there isn’t many large group tables

This is the echo park area and you just gotta take that with a grain of salt. IYKYK“

Honey's at Star Love Bar • $$
1532 N Western Ave, Los Angeles

“I’m a tourist and have only been here once, but I had a great experience. The bartender was friendly, and it was a fun nightlife experience being surrounded by lots of other queer ladies. We need more spaces for sapphic women like these. Yeah there was a cover charge and mandatory tips, but it’s important for the staff and venue to make money. I thought the charges were totally reasonable, and I have no complaints“

Plaza NIGHTCLUB AND DANCE HALL Bar • $$
739 N La Brea Ave, Los Angeles

“A Hidden Gem of LA’s Nightlife!

Absolutely fabulous show! The performances were top-tier—full of sparkle, energy, and Hollywood-level glam. Every queen gave it their all, and it truly felt like dancing with the angels of LA.

Sure, the place isn’t super fancy and the outside doesn’t scream luxury. But once you’re inside, it’s all about the vibe. There’s a relaxed, fun, and truly welcoming feeling that makes you want to stay all night. The host is amazing—personable and attentive, making sure everyone feels like a VIP. That kind of service is rare and unforgettable.

I danced here freely, laughed, and made memories that I’ll cherish forever. It wasn’t about the infrastructure—it was the warmth, the joy, and the freedom. A place to sing your heart out, dance like no one’s watching, and be surrounded by pure fabulousness.

If we could put this show and this host in a castle, we would! But this is the real LA—and I love it.“
