The food here was good. I love the ambiance. I definitely would come back. The drinks however are a bit overpriced but not too bad. It makes a good date place. The only thing negative are the chairs. Kind of wobbly but yet they are stable. I don't know. It might just be me. :)

I work right next door to this place. At first I liked it. The food is decent if you don't have the time to go out to lunch and u are uber busy. The thing I am upset the way they jack up their prices on their non-menu food like candy and bottled drinks. I've had two coworkers experience this and the lady who runs the restaurant is completely rude.

In both cases she kept raising the prices a quarter to 50 cents everyday. It also doesn't help that there are no prices on these items. SHADY!!!!

I had a lot of fun the night I came out to the place. The Burlesque show is pretty cool. The crowd is diverse and the drinks were pretty cheap but they were stiff. The way I likem.

The only cons were: no signage so it was hard to find, small cover and it was hot. I hate places that get hot and stuffy but I liked this place for some reason.

Good place to hang if you are in downtown.

I had one of the worst bar experiences here. My friend and I got there and a band was setting up. Man the band was terribad. Their music sounded like a bunch of trash cans being banged against a wall with a dude yelling in the background.

To add to the horrible music the waitress was a complete idiot. My friend bought us drinks then I ordered myself another drink. She told me there was a minimum for credit cards. I said OK and told her I'd be ordering another drink.

We get fed up with the music and decide to leave. My friend tells the bartender just to add my tab to his. She threw on the extra drink which I was going to order on my tab already before she gave it to me. We told her that I only had two drinks but she kept insisting I had three. She said "that's what they had listed."

I wouldn't be as upset if the bar was busy and this happened all within a one hour time span but it happened within a thirty minute time span. To top it off there was only another group of two people at the bar. We even showed the glasses she gave me which were only two. Complete, f*cking idiot.

I hate her.

AVOID.

My girlfriend and I got new seats from this place. The staff was very friendly and they installed our seats for us. They were really cool even if we were total newbs. I'll probably go back if I need bike work done.

I love this place. It's so Versatile, you can come here for many things. It can be Friday and you want start off with having a nice dinner before going to out the bars. Saturday, a date with someone or dinner with your closest friends. Even on Sunday, where you just want to chill have a good meal and listen to some jazz.

There are two things you'll always get, good service and food.

This place is all good. Really it is. I had the smoked duck with linguine, just great! It has a nice home feeling, like you're eating at your bestfriend's parent's place for dinner. They have a good selection of wine as well. It's quaint and is low key but the ambiance is still really nice. It makes a good date place or place to take your closest friends. The staff their is pretty nice and we got good service.

Man this place is great. We had like 5-6 dishes and everything was very spot on. I loved the fried tofu, it went well with my porkchops. I can see why this place is busy. We didn't have the long of a wait for dinner. I also had a mango slushy that was pretty delicious. I have leftovers for lunch tomorrow, I cannot wait.

The only downside to this place was they put raisins in their fried rice but that's OK, I just took them out and I was good to go!

Great lunch time place during the work week. If you want to have a long lunch and chill with a Corona this is the place to go. Also, I recommend the chicken Fajitas.

Everything was good. I can't complain about anything. One of the best sushi places I've ever ate at in Los Angeles. I know I am going to have to be a bit more adventurous next time though and try more things on the menu. I think I am going to give Uni another try here. Just delicious.
