There's only 2 lanes in this hipstery third-story bar overlooking Hollywood Boulevard and it's not for the faint of wallet. But the steampunk flavor of these intimate lanes has an undeniable magic. Read more

You gotta try the Atlantico rum cocktail here. Also the have Ancho Reyes spicy drinks . The tequila Ocho here is fantastic. We had PISCO punch with Encanto Pisco too. So good, all of it!!!

If you're with a group of four or more, order up a cocktail punch ($60 for punch for 4-6 people). Best enjoyed over a board game or while bowling .
