The Paramount is a small and intimate venue, perfect for experiencing live music. Located upstairs, the nightclub has a cozy loft atmosphere with a bar and a patio overlooking the street. Visitors often find parking challenging as there is no lot nearby, but some reviews mention free parking just a block away, making it easier to visit. The venue pays homage to the East LA music scene, with wallpaper on the entrance covered in reproductions of flyers from shows at The Vex Club. Inside, the space is roomy but could benefit from more seating, and the balcony is often filled with smokers. The stage is close to the audience, providing a good view of the performers, and the sound is generally clear and well-balanced, with many appreciating the quality of the sound and support staff. The venue uses plastic cups for drinks, which has drawn some criticism, but overall, it’s a great place to hear music. The staff is described as chill and respectable, contributing to a relaxed atmosphere. Visitors have enjoyed performances from various artists, including Mikel Erentxun, noting the professionalism of the venue and the good experience overall. The stage setup and sound quality make it a favorite spot for both artists and fans, especially due to the lack of crowding inside. Despite some minor flaws like bathroom stalls and seating, The Paramount remains a worthwhile destination for those interested in local and touring music acts.
