Cocktail Bars near San Gabriel

“Really nice environment… staff is really respectful and always on top of things… food is really good.. I’ve never had a bad experience here.. I highly recommend“

“The lounge is conveniently located within Hilton San Gabriel. It was spacious and comfortable. The staff were inviting, friendly and extremely efficient. They took wonderful care of us. For lunch we ordered: clam chowder, Caesar salad, beef taquitos with guacamole dip and Parma ham and mozzarella flat bread. All the dishes were perfectly seasoned and delicious. My only two suggestions would be to serve crackers with the soup and maybe change the flatbread sauce to a marinara. I had an old fashioned with my meal which I really enjoyed. The drink was well balanced.The lounge is a non tipping restaurant. It’s odd I know, at least for me it is. The tip was already added to the final bill and we paid approximately 65+“

“There is a restaurant here called Pa Pa Walk! Sam the owner and his brother are a few of his employees. They are very nice. There is usually a line out the door. Make sure you sign in on the form hanging outside!Seating: A bit cramped, but its busy.

Parking: Cramped, but there is a lot downstairs. Don't park in Hotel parking.Service: When I am there I ususally get a water pretty quickly. They might not be the best at followup but if you are enjoying your food and DESSERT then you will be fine.Food: They serve Taiwanese foods like shaved ice, boba, slush, teas, coffee, popcorn chicken, stinky tofu, leek bun, coffin bread (with cream soup inside), dumplings, chicken/pork chop rice, sausage rice, fried rice, noodles, and they just recently added hot-pot to their menu. I also like their beef noodle soup!I love their mango shaved ice when it is in season. Their fluff ice is just fabulous!“

“whipped feta app was incredible, it's been almost a week and I'm still thinking about how good it was! the drinks were all memorable as well. was super busy when we went but worth the wait. can't wait to go back for dinner!“

“love the Quality of Food😍😍😍“

“Endroit hyper typique ! Bonne musique, cocktails d’un excellent niveau et à un prix tout à fait honnête, tous les classiques sont dispo et le barman tient la corde niveau cordes vocales !! Excellente carte de dîner ! Nous n’avons pas testé le grill … seul regret de la soirée. Il faut qu’on y retourne, absolument“

“สนุกสนานอาหารอร่อย บรรยากาศดีมีระดับ“

“Great music!!!! Great hang!!!!“

“Fun bar. Great drinks and great prices. I read comments that some people think it’s a racist bar, believe me, it isn’t. All are welcome. No predujices here.“

“We spent a few hours here on New Year's Eve. Everyone was welcoming and friendly. The owner greeted us and offered us snacks.
They have a live DJ spinning turntables, bumping music from the past to present. There's an outdoor patio in the back.
The drinks were tasty and affordable. Try the Adios MthrFckr. Bomb!“

“Loved this place! Great vibes! The music venue is great and I love that the bar area is separated so you could talk at the tables and hear one another, yet you could still hear the music in the background. The Thai food was an unexpected bonus and super delicious. All around a fantastic experience.“

“Best cocktails in LA, beautiful space with matching beautiful people. Loved this place in New York for years, and this place brings an LA vibe to that legendary bar!“

“Amazing. Perfect place to go for a drink that’s close to home, super cute n divey, friendly people, nice bartenders, STAGE FOR LIVE MUSIC, small intimate atmosphere, diversity (thank God!) amongst its patrons… just the best of the best. Love it 😍“

“I Love this place I always have fun here me and my Sister come almost every weekend either friday or saturday were like one of the regulars food and Drinks are the bomb they have good Birthday Party's there and everyone that comes here are cool.“

“This is a cocktail bar but don't be fooled. My favorite drink is the duck fat hibiki, it's absolutely amazing. It blew every other cocktail out of the water. It might cost more and it might not look the prettiest but trust me it is delicious. They are going to discontinue it due to lack of people ordering but don't just go for the trendy or Instagram worthy drinks, it might just be a regular looking old fashion but it might just be the best old fashion I've ever had.“

“Pacific standard was great, awesome service and staff. The perfect place to celebrate my birthday.“

“Just experience it for yourself. A secret place in Chinatown,Small place but amazing drinks with a private party room.“

“Amazing food, service and atmosphere. Thank you.

Such a great team, I love visiting and staying at the hotel.

Dining at Longitude 118 is the best part of my day.

Elena and Stefano you are the best
See you next visit.“

“This is the spot if you need a good, cold drink & a chill, old school vibe. I don’t like bars that have windows & Poor Denny’s is old school in that regard. Ever since Ember’s Lounge closed down, this has been my spot. It’s cash only, but there’s a ATM machine there. I love the digital jukebox that allows you to play all kinds of music. The bartenders are always nice & they have wonderful hands on the pours. ? Good vibes & mellow times here.“

“Our waitress Genevieve was extremely nice and knowledgeable!! Great ambiance! Food n drinks! Definitely coming back !“

“Sawa is easily a top-10 restaurant in my opinion. The chef deserves a star. The entire experience went beyond my expectations, truly outstanding. I had so much fun dining there; the environment is friendly, and every bite was delicious. The host was spectacular, especially for suggesting we split the sake pairing, for someone who doesn’t drink much, it was more than enough. I’m already looking forward to coming back.“

“Great analog music and excellent drinks. The bartenders and dj's are top shelf.“

“Absolutely loved this place. We will definitely be coming back. We got Citrus Salad, Carne en su Jugo & Carnitas Wow, just Wow!!!!!“

“We LOVE the Songbird Cafe! The staff is incredible kind and friendly, the cocktails are top-notch, and the decor is absolutely magical.“

“I've been there once and it was fine last time. The cocktails were quick and the atmosphere was good. Overall, it was pretty good“

“Nice romantic atmosphere which you can actually hear others talk to you. Deep fried whole catfish is a spectacular dish! Great attentive service by staff.“

“The food is amazing. Try the wings to share as an appetizer, so tasty without having to use a dipping sauce. Smash burgers are so juicy, fries were nice and crispy. Overall great first visit. A friend of mine too me for my birthday, had a great time 👍🏽“

“Super fun bar in dtla! Enjoyed the atmosphere, music, and drinks. Definitely going back!“

“The Angeleno Spritz was just what I needed after a long day of minor disappointments, that and the genuine smile from the tattooed guy working the bar this evening who was refreshingly upbeat and worked the room like a pro. So glad I stopped in!“

“LA local gem. Every neighborhood needs a place like this. Amazing vibes, value, and customer service. Great drink program, focused menu with great options, outdoor patio, and great loft space for music. The Happy-Hour is right from the menu with great combinations VS yesterday's leftovers they are trying to offload. Worth the drive, and if you’re a local…take more advantage!“

“Low key unpretentious bar. Good bang for your $$ buck !!“

“The food was delicious and a great place to dine. Next time bring some friends and enjoy the food“

“Karoeke night was Fun! They have a fancy way of scheduling their list to sing (screen recording included). The bar has a pool table, chill vibes, super friendly staff (cash only) and overall friendly patrons.Oh and Olga's Cocina food truck stopped by and their food is amazing! I didn't get a picture of the food I ate it too fast lol.“

“An Arts District gem. This food blew our minds, we stopped in for a quick bite and everything we had was an absolute 10. Will be coming back to try more of the menu but highlights we had:

- seaweed salad
- spicy tuna crispy rice
- lobster pasta (incredible)
- chicken skewer

Friendly, knowledgeable service, great ambiance, definitely worth a visit!“

“Such a vibe! Had an amazing experience. Highly recommend.“

“The best place in Dtla! Ask for Hiro, he was super amazing and kept our drinks full!“

“We drive 35 miles at least three times a month to eat here. We love Home State and as a Native Texan, I can attest that their queso is the real deal!!! I just wish they'd open one in Claremont, CA!!! The Don't Mess With Texas is my favorite taco and my husband loves the brisket taco. Everything is amazing though!!!“

“I love when you find a new restaurant and you can tell there’s love and passion built into every detail of the experience. My wife and I had an amazing time at Free Spirited. We met the owners Amber and Arleo and they were so friendly and welcoming. With regards to the food it was just as heartwarming. Don’t skip out on this spot! Also don’t be deceived by the menus! It reads for the omnivores in mind but everything is vegan and then you have to add meat, etc. if you want it. The couple asks for dietary restrictions up front and are great at explaining everything if you have additional questions. Updated from previous review on 2026-01-11“

“Incredible dishes! We started with biscuits which were warm flaky and heavenly with perfect butter. Celery was refreshing and crunchy - highly recommend as a contrast to biscuits.

We also got calamari which were perfectly crispy, I was not the biggest fan of the sauce, but my husband liked it. For main course both the rosemary chicken and the steak were amazing!

In terms of seating we got the table on the patio which had great atmosphere except for trains passing by. I think next time I would book indoor table, but we 100% want to come as all the food was incredible.“

“Spicy jalapeño cocktail 🍸💕“

“The asparagus fries. Crispy & not greasy. You can appreciate the asparagus flavor. We split the Thai spicy salad. It was spicy, but the Thai basil & the peanut dressing were the stars. It didn't need the chicken. The best was the ribeye melt. The meat was cooked perfectly.The sourdough was crusted with parmesan. With a side of horseradish that was perfectly paired for this sandwich.“

“Hidden inside another batlr that also hidden inside another bar.

Great place to see a show as the only way to know about this place or find it is to be a cool kid in the know.

💯 Worth catching a show here.“

“The food is amazing. I highly recommend this bistro.“

“Skaf’s on York truly feels like home every time I visit. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming. Their food blends traditional Lebanese flavors with a fresh, modern twist, and everything on the menu is consistently delicious.

I never know what to order because their dishes never disappoint. When I’m craving that classic home-style comfort, I go for the fattoush salad with rice and shawarma — and of course, the warm pita bread and creamy hummus are a must. If I’m in the mood to try a little bit of everything, I pick a few of their sides. Their cheese rolls are amazing! And on days when I want something simple yet still full of flavor, the lentil soup is always perfect.

Just writing this review is making me excited for my next meal there. Highly recommend Skaf’s on York for anyone who enjoys delicious, authentic food served in a warm and inviting setting!“

“Excelente comida y atención“

“Great neighborhood hangout, as the name implies. Inside there’s a cool cocktail bar, but my favorite is the dog-friendly outdoor patio, a chill spot to hang out with your friends, dog, and - yes - neighbors.

Outside is a map showing the destruction of the Eaton fire. It’s sobering and sad, but I’m glad it’s here. Thank you.“

“***We absolutely Love the annual Halloween-time costume Party !!! **Good bartenders and Great Drinks !!“

“I used to work closeby on 6th & Spring for LA's Community Dev Dept in the Mid-'90s & I relished this vintage DTLA neighborhood when I'd often have Lunch around the corner at Clifton's Cafeteria on Broadway near 7th 'Many special memories“

“amazing food, service and ambiance!“
