Bar area
Vijay C.

Came here on a Saturday night to celebrate my sisters birthday. We parked on the street, which stopped being enforced on the meter on the weekend. So got a great parking spot. They don't have their own lot so just have to park wherever you can find it. We were greeted by the front to check our ids since it's 21+. We sat at a long reserved table outside. It was hot and then got cold but luckily there were heat lamps, so dress accordingly. You order at the bar inside and they'll make the drinks for you and if it's good, you get a number and they take it out to you. I suggest the kogi sliders or tacos with short rib. The loaded fries also looked delicious. I got two beers but they have ample selection of that and cocktails - the pink monkey was popular. All in all, a fun spot to hang out. The employees were nice and the ambiance was chill.

I had a friend that rented out a portion of their outside space for a birthday and turned out very nice. They ordered some appetizers to share amongst the party that was a fusion between Asian and Mexican flavors. For drinks, we went to the inside bar to order and loved the Spiced Daisy! A lovely drink with a kick that was perfect for summer. Loved the overall relaxed vibe and friendly bartenders.

Alibi room has been my favorite for years. Came in the other night craving Kogi tacos. We did the three taco and got a lemon drop that was to die for.

Three Kobi taco combo

The blackjack quesadilla was the star of the show. Amazing salsa Verde sauce and taste with the perfect crunch. Goes fantastic with a beer. Also had the kogi taco trio. The tacos were unique and tasty. Loved the slaw as it was tangy with a nice ginger bite. Overall atmosphere was dark bar hip vibes with loud music and lots of conversations. Great experience. Would definitely come back and try something new.

Came here twice during our trip and both times we had a great time! If you're looking for more of a casual vibe or have a bigger group, I definitely recommend sitting outside. Even if it's a chillier night, they have a TON of heaters that keeps things toasty. If you're looking for more of a date night vibe, sit inside. The food here is SO GOOD! I got the kimchi quesadilla and the tofu burrito and both were really good. I definitely want to come back here for the bowls which I've heard awesome things about. We also got the kimchi cheese fries and those were also incredible. They also have an extensive beer & cocktail menu. Overall, definitely recommend giving this place a try!

Kogi sliders are the best!!
James S.

What a great place if you want to grab a drink or have some of the best food in LA. If you know who Kogi is, it's Chef Roy Choi's food truck that serves Korean fusion food. This is the best place to enjoy the weather if LA and have fantastic food. Bottom line, just get anything with short rib like the tacos, sliders, burrito and quesadilla. It will not disappoint!!

Fries

Love Alibi room! Easy outdoor seating and big enough bar on the inside. We go for dinner from time to time. For this instance, We went for our work holiday dinner. It's great that you can order inside and they will deliver to your table. Makes it easier for separate checks. Even though it was chilly, they had space heaters everywhere. The food is always good and filling. The big surprise this time was the cocktail. "Baby it's cold outside" was very refreshing and tasty!. I Always get the sliders or tacos because you just can't go wrong.

My Google maps indicated that the last time I was here was eight years ago. I used to come here fairly frequently with friends to enjoy Kogi tacos, fries (which aren't available at the food trucks), and drinks. I believe I've enjoyed some of the tacos as they've traditionally had a presence at Coachella. I'm glad to say that the quality hasn't deviated from what I've experienced. Since Covid, they have converted the parking lot to an outside patio. I met three college buddies here to catch up, and this is what we ordered. The fries are enough to share for a group of two or more. Our server very frequently made sure we were okay and asked if we wanted to order extra, so that attention is greatly appreciated. I'm really glad they added an outside patio since we used to have to yell at each other to have a conversation since the music inside could get loud. Enjoy the night weather and grub. If you've never have tried kogi style food (Mexican and Korean fusion), you have to try it at least once. It's great to share a meal, drink, and have good conversation. Cheers!

It was a quiet semi-divey atmosphere with a foosball table and a couple of dart boards on the dark painted walls plus a few TVs. There were only a few people there when we arrived around 6 PM. We sat at a high table by the window and the kind young bartender took our drink and food orders. We had arrived in time for happy hour, so we chose the charcuterie board and two orders of the salmon sliders, both reasonably priced at $9.50 each. The sliders were spicy and delicious. The charcuterie board was not as impressive. It didn't seem particularly fresh; the grapes especially were a bit wrinkly and sad. We could also have done with a few more pieces of toast to go with the pieces of smoked Gouda and Brie, and the couple slices of salami and prosciutto. There were also a few dates and dried apricots on the board. Well, whatta ya want for $9.50 in L.A., I guess... Overall it was a pleasant and chill experience, and our bartender/waiter was quite attentive even though the place started to fill up the longer we stayed.

The chairs were super uncomfortable especially if you are hanging around to listen to music and have a few drinks. It was quite dark inside and the tv screens had strange videos playing. If you are local it may be your place especially on a rainy night to stay close to home but I wouldn't make a special trip from far.

The speakeasy is unique and even serves full menu of great food! Aesthetic & Ambiance: 9.5/10 - it was very prohibition themed and the menus being price/luggage tags was very fun. Came on a saturday night at 6:30 reservation and it was very quiet with us being the only table most of the evening. The outside restaurant has live bands which can be a little loud. Service: 100/10 - Markley was the bartender and the only one who operates the speakeasy, she's not only the best bartender Ive had custom drinks from, but she also makes each individual product herself. She explained every part of the drinks and ingredients, and even offered to make any kind of drink we'd want if there was nothing on her menu. Drinks: 10/10 - if you like cocktail bars this is it...EVERY drink was a unique in flavor and handcrafted by Markley from steep to serve. house-infused liquors and tinctures- ONE OF A KIND BAR Food: 8.5/10 - all around great some dishes better than others Bread & Butter - 9/10 great toasted sourdough with a garlic butter and the butter was perfect salty-addition. Calamari - 7/10 a little too breaded for my liking with the rings and tentacles being a little dry. Deviled eggs: 7.5/10 interesting they were fried, but had great flavor all over Mongolian Beef: 8/10 very good flavor, and rice was tasty, but the sauce was a little salty. Cajun chicken pasta: 9.5/10 chicken was tender, pasta was cooked perfectly, sauce was delicious, and the sausage was a great addition. I'd easily drive an hour from LA again to come here!

Energy goes way up with it though. Music is consistently great and the crowd matches it. Mostly a younger, high-energy vibe. If you actually want to enjoy your drinks and maybe chat with the bartenders, show up early. Once it gets going, it's all motion and noise. It's never disappointed us. You kind of know what you're signing up for, and it delivers every time. Ambiance leans classy without feeling vintage. Dim lighting, a touch of rustic, and just enough polish to set the tone without overdoing it. They've got a patio too, which comes in clutch when you need a breather or want to actually hear the person next to you. We usually do street parking and it's not too bad if you're willing to walk a bit.

It doesn't just look good, it pulls you into a different mood the moment you walk in. The space is thoughtfully split. One side has a cozy fireplace with lounge seating that feels intimate and elevated. The other side opens up into the bar with dining tables up front, giving it a more social, slightly livelier energy. Drinks are absolutely amazing. Crafted well, balanced, and consistent. But what really stands out is how the ambiance takes over the entire experience. The crowd shows up. Well dressed, confident, and adds to the overall vibe instead of taking away from it. Some places you go just for drinks. Here, the ambiance takes it to another level. It feels like an experience, not just a night out.
