Seriously one of the best scenes in Ktown . Extremely friendly staff , fantastic daily specials , and a very welcoming ambiance. Catch the password on their Facebook page for entry.

Went here with a friend after a concert and blew my mind. Matt is a ninja behind the bar and all the single ladies are ready to party with you. The live band also played Led Zeppelin by drunk request.

Good spot in Koreatown for cocktails and bar food . They make a pretty great Vesper. There's table service for the booths .

Breakfast shot chases with OJ . Refills on soft drinks

Lisa Huey-Cole

Maybe all the people who are trying to get in each others' pants should be quiet while musicians are playing. Hit on each other between sets. Besides, it's probably a bad idea anyway.

Edith Tavera

Also by the way Blind Barber is the only speakeasy in LA. Fuck your password to an empty bar .
