Tried to like this place on separate occasions/different events but I'm always disappointed. It's small, the bathroom situation sucks, and their prices are a bit too much ($13 for a draft beer). Also on one occasion there were 2 guys drunk out of their minds and security didn't do much to stop their foolery and harassment towards women
Amazing sound thanks to Justin!

Place was pretty dead on a Friday night.
Came here to see Block Scholars perform, and was surprised by a whole Hip Hop show properly promoted with merch booths, good sound quality, a full bar, and dance hall on the other side. Cool venue, professional doorman, and nice bathroom that were clean and nicely designed.

First timer last Saturday for a dual DJ theme night and was everything I hoped it would be. Didnt take long to realize I was not in Kansas (i.e. OC) anymore and that was exactly what I was looking for. All OC bars have become clones of each other all with bad Djs playing the same old rap songs you've heard a million times along with idiot F boys with bad hair cuts and rediculous neck chains. anyway, back to the Virgile. The size of the venue was perfect, not too big, not too small. The atmoshere was phanominal. Dark but with perfect lighting to make it cozy. Felt like I was in a 3D movie. Well organized by blocking space in front of the bar so you didn't have to fight through a sea of D bags to get a drink (like in OC). Crowd was definitely mixed but everyone was respectful and you felt free to be yourself. Already looking at the event calendar for my next visit. Will be back for sure. Note: The outside looks like an abandoned building and the area is sketch, but nice sketch for Hollywood area. There are 2 rooms, one larger than the other but I preferred the smaller room for the cool bar area.

The atmosphere is casual and artsy! I attended the "Girls, Gays, and Theys" event, and it was a blast. Everyone, including the manager and doorman, was super friendly and helped me find my phone when I lost it. I will definitely visit again!

I spent over 100.00 on drinks that night wondering why I was not getting a buzz. When I started ordering shots I noticed the alcohol is diluted with water! :(. By the time I left 10 drinks in a was completely sober….
