It's the kind of place where you can take your time exploring different pours rather than rushing through drinks. The selection is impressive, ranging from familiar labels to smaller distilleries you don't see everywhere. The bartender was clearly passionate about the craft and offered a couple of suggestions based on what I usually enjoy. I tried a whiskey I hadn't heard of before, and it turned out to be a great recommendation with a smooth, layered flavor. What I liked most was the atmosphere. It felt social without being overwhelming, making it easy to have a conversation or simply sit back and enjoy the drink. The crowd seemed like a mix of locals and people who genuinely appreciate good spirits. The Phoenix stands out as a spot where whiskey takes center stage, but the environment remains welcoming and unpretentious. It's a great choice if you're looking to unwind with a thoughtfully poured glass in Beverly Grove.

A lot of alcoholic drinks were ordered from Moscow Mule to Espresso Martini to some cocktails that are more personalized at The Phoenix. Food was good!

So we decided to keep it local so we checked Yelp and found Snake Pit Alehouse Whiskey Bar. An amazing bar and restaurant with a really cool bartender, Ryan.

A rustic neighborhood watering hole that probably has a lot of fun characters stopping by. It has a full bar, arcades and a jukebox! Our food came out on a long rectangular wooden plate. Great portions and cooked to perfection. You can see the crab's legs holding the bun on my po' boy! Will definitely come back!

The live DJ on industry Sunday night set the vibe as you grab an espresso martini or beer as an intimate group also enjoys small bites and cocktails around you. It's definitely dim lights, enjoyable location. I would however stay away from anything other than a snack from this location. We grabbed the steak and fries, unfortunately, the title of Wagyu is lacking. The steak itself is very tough, and the gravy that was on top was not particularly enjoyable. I did enjoy the fries though so I will say a nice crispy fry with a little bit of greenery on top was decent. Along with the Wagyu lacking, the steak tartar was also not a good idea. Maybe it was just an off night to have steak at this location, but I would definitely be weary of ordering. Even though the food was lacking it in a major way. The staff was not, the cocktails were wonderful, and every single person can work. There was over the talk, friendly and nice.

You have lost a long time customer. We were out celebrating my friend's birthday (3 girls, one of which is clearly pregnant). We sat at the bar and tried to get a table but were beat to it. Eventually one of the women who beat us to the table told us they were leaving, and she asked us if we would like to take the table, so we did. We were enjoying our drinks at the table for several minutes before a very rude waiter came up to us and said he needed the table to seat someone else and proceeded to put a "reserved" sign on the table while we were already sitting there. I proceeded to tell him this is ridiculous as we have been sitting here and lost our previous seats. He said "yeah, too bad, then you can leave." This is extremely unprofessional as we had already been sitting for several minutes and had just ordered more drinks. In what world is it considered ok to take a customers seat, that was not previously reserved, to sit another customer. When he seated the other party, they could barely even fit in the booth and I'm sure they were uncomfortable. The waiter was extremely rude and had no remorse. Not to mention the bar tender took forever to take our order and the bar wasn't even busy, I have seen it much more packed in the past. Shame on The Roger Room. Now I see why so many of my friends stopped coming here. Do better.

There's no street parking and valet only. We were welcomed with lots of inebriated hotel guests shouting at each other. Another group sitting in hotel lobby drinking and cat calling each woman who walked by. We wanted to stay for drinks, but this establishment was more of local hotel guests wanting to get drunk and not drive. Kudos to them. But not for a person wanting a unique atmosphere with a date. Hard pass on this one for me. Drinks were ok, but still speakeasy prices for a hotel bar.

One speaker was blown and very staticky. The food would be ready very late but it was good for bar food. You had to go to bar to order food and drinks as they wouldn't really serve the inside tables. One Sunday it said that they open at 12PM but we were there for a while and they didn't open so we missed the beginning of one of the games. I got the feeling that it seems like they are going out of business so nobody really cares for their last days of the business there. Ambiance is okay but it definitely needs some maintenance and improvement.

The only caveat is that it had a super slight BBQ sauce flavor that i'm personally not a fan of. Still a 9/10 and one of the best burgers I've had.

It was Sunday afternoon, there was plenty of seating, and the overall vibe was relaxed. We were there for the fish and chips, and we were not disappointed. The portions were generous, the food was good, and we both left stuffed. My only complaint came after we left, when I realized that gratuity had automatically been added to our bill and I had left an additional tip on top of it. In this new world of tipping, I think it's important to clearly point out when gratuity is already included and explain what it covers. Overall, we enjoyed the food and the relaxed atmosphere, and Tom Bergin's still feels like the classic neighborhood Irish pub I remembered.

We started with the Watermelon Martini and the S'mores Espresso Martini. Both were excellent, but the S'mores Espresso Martini was definitely the standout with its graham cracker rim, toasted marshmallows, and chocolate shavings. The St. Felix Sample Platter was a great way to try a variety of menu favorites. The Wagyu slider, Malaysian-style steak skewers, and truffle parmesan popcorn were especially memorable. For the entrée, we ordered the Braised Beef Short Ribs with goat cheese mashed potatoes. The short ribs were incredibly tender and packed with flavor, while the mashed potatoes were rich and creamy. We finished with the L.A. Churro Waffle, and it was the perfect ending to the meal. The combination of cinnamon sugar, chocolate, caramel, strawberries, whipped cream, and vanilla bean ice cream made it easy to see why it's one of their most popular desserts.

Since we were attending Michael Jackson The Musical at the Pantages Theatre afterward, the location was ideal -- just a short walk away. The servers were attentive, welcoming, and truly helped create a great atmosphere. One of my favorite touches was that they played Michael Jackson music throughout the event, which perfectly tied into the evening.
