How have I just discovered this gem?!? This place feels like the 90s- a place time has held on to. The view of downtown LA reminds you of all the possibilities. The drinks are on point. The service is welcoming too. My husband and I went 2 days in a row to just... be.

Somewhat narrow space with the stage on one end. Indoor seating is high stools towards the stage, a few booth and tables towards the back. Plenty of outdoor seating with tables. Bathrooms are clean. Food is pretty good and served quickly.

It's on the very border of Skid Row and Little Tokyo so the paid, gated lot with an attendant is great. If you take a scooter you'll have to park it up the block on 3rd.

That view though is, quite honestly, really nice. Totally worth visiting at least once.

I stopped by this bar on a Saturday night after hearing they were live-streaming the LA Derby Dolls bout—even though I hadn’t heard of the place before. Tucked away from the busy nightlife of Little Tokyo and the Arts District, it offers a unique and laid-back atmosphere. What really makes it stand out, though, are the prices—surprisingly affordable compared to most bars in Los Angeles.

One of the best bars in Los Angeles. Cheap drinks, live music and more often than not the Playlist they've got streaming isn't flaming hot garbage.

Groovy alternative + underground music including live bands on weekends. Cool dark atmosphere inside with lots of red lighting + crazy animal trophy heads on walls, sort of a weird David Lynch hunting vibe that's hip right now. Bar looks very legit old school fancy wood from old times. There's a nice, large covered outdoor seating area with fire burners for extra ambience. Fun menu of good bar food like smash burgers, wings, fries, fish + chips, etc. which are on special deals during Happy Hour (until 8pm). Big variety of beers + spirits. I like the deal on ice cold Hamm's tall boys for only $6! Great place to bring a date or to meet friends. Lots of hip folks, slackers, rockers, artists + the like come here + keep things entertaining. FREE PARKING in their own parking lot right there. How great is that?? Nice staff too. Escondite is always free to get in, even when they have bands! Outdoor patio is dog friendly.
