    Came here to celebrate my sister's 30th birthday with some tea! We had a group of 7 and we were seated in a separate room. I love the interior of this spot and it was aesthetic. We started with a tea smelling where we got to smell the different tea leaves from the menu. I loved this experience because it definitely helped me decide on which tea I wanted. For my tea experience, I chose the Himalayan tea. It was rich in flavor with scents of floral. We each got our own pot of tea and were able to get more refills of hot water. I ordered the vegan menu (menu attached). I loved the vanilla bean scone, avocado bruschetta, cucumber basil, and the yuzu madeleine. Huge thanks to Uvia who made this a very fun experience for us! She was so knowledgeable about all the teas and sweets.

    Afternoon Tea at Dahlia, located in Los Angeles, is quite pretty and unique. The interior has a romantic vibe of mystery and elegance. This was my first time having afternoon tea at this place, and our server was friendly. She explained the menu and the different items on the tiers. If you haven't had afternoon tea it usually comes with a tea that you pick and then comes some tasty sandwiches and sweet desserts. If you want milk with your tea you could always ask them to have it and it will come in this little small pouring cup. Enjoyed our afternoon tea and loved the vibe overall! Great place to have a chat with your friends about our daily lives.

    If you're looking for a gorgeous and unique afternoon tea I can't recommend Dahlia more highly. My sister and I came for the winter tea. Firstly, the restaurant is impeccably designed. So many beautiful colors and textures and the tea room feels cozy and intimate yet luxurious. I love that you get to smell the teas before making your selection and they were seasonal curations. I got the gingerbread black tea, and my sister got the apple pie green tea. Both were absolutely delicious. Our server Lluvia was so friendly and attentive and made the whole experience feel extra special. Both the vanilla, and black currant scones were incredible. Crispy on the outside, almost like a donut, and fluffy and light on the inside. The accompanying jam and Devonshire cream were the perfect accompaniments. I loved the variety of the savory bites which were all delicious especially the cucumber, and egg sandwiches. The seasonal patisserie selection really knocked it out of the park. A true love letter to Holiday flavors. The cranberry frangipane hand pie and the Apple Pie Bar were unforgettable. I'll definitely be back :)

    AMAZING! We came for tea service and it was absolutely wonderful. Lluvia was amazing and explained the menu and teas to us. She also played the best music and made our experience so much lovelier. We had the vegan tea service and absolutely everything was incredible. They change up their menu so I am excited to come back and try their chef's next creations.

    This speakeasy is so beautiful! Wish i lived here. The interior design in this room is just so beautiful. Well done! One of the best desserts I've had (forgot to take a pic of the menu ...was trying to live in the moment). My friend and I were fortunate to have the whole room to ourselves which was pretty neat. So romantic! Recommended to make reservations as this place can get filled up pretty quickly- we just happened to come on a slow Saturday.

    I love a good afternoon tea so when I saw the afternoon tea here, I decided to give it a try. It's very easy to find parking downtown. There are lots everywhere and several very close by. The lobby is very small and gets crowded easily. As soon as you enter, the restaurant is to the left. We were seated in a small waiting area i. the restaurant. The coffee table in the seating area was dirty with lots of crumbs and dried up spills. My first impression being a dirty table had me worried. We sat in the area for a couple of minutes then we were taken back to the beautiful tea room as far as tea rooms go. This is one of the most gorgeous I've been in here in the Los Angeles area. Service was great. they really take their time and don't rush you at all. I appreciated their unique tea selection. I had the mad hatter tea and it was very unique. I really enjoyed the fruity bouquet the tea presented. I wasn't a huge fan of the rock candy stir sticks. They're cute and a good concept, but it's hard to use on multiple cups of tea and doesn't get the flavor where you want to be all the time. The food was good, but there were two things that stood out for me that had the most flavor. The first was the prosciutto and radish on pumpernickel. This was one of the most delicious small bites. The next item was the mocha mousse kiss so delectable, I wish I had a dozen of these.

    We decided to try this place as it just opened! Very cute romantic vibes. The design of the interior is really beautiful. We waited in another restaurant before they brought us in. There was about 2 other people in there. Music was really soft and a little bland. It would be a lot better with a little more vibrant music and a little louder. We felt as if we had to whisper so no one around us could hear. Dropped a star purely for the vibes. I'll start with the eggplant! Honestly for the price it was worth it for the incredible flavors. But it was just such a small portion. You definitely won't go there for the food that's for sure! But great for a light snack. We got two drinks. The vodka martini which my friend said was amazing. And I got the boulevardier which was also a really beautiful tasty drink. Overall a nice place for one drink but there are better options depending on if this is your vibe or not!

    Pleasant and solid afternoon tea at Dahlia for Valentine's weekend. My 4-year old loves going to tea ever since he experienced all the bells and whistles at the Fairmont Empress in Victoria, Canada. While the setting at Dahlia is less traditional, I enjoyed the modern, muted colors of the small tea room and the Asian teapot. The Proper Hotel's interior design is beautiful and transportive in a wholly different way than your usual English or Garden themed tea rooms. My son was thrilled with the heart themed dessert presentation for their Valentine's tea and service was friendly, if not always prompt or particularly attentive despite the small number of parties (there were three parties at most at any given time). The sandwiches were good enough, but the bread felt just a little stale and the flavors normal. The desserts were more exciting to taste, but I don't have much of a sweet tooth so I always focus more on the sandwiches. I was happy enough with the experience, but I can't say that for the price tag (well over 400 dollars for 4 people including tip, but no champagne) it felt like I got my money's worth. Also, while very pretty, the tea room felt very much like a place I'd like to have a drink rather than nurse a pot of tea and leisurely munch. I would visit the lovely location again, but for a cocktail. BTW - they do not validate and you have to valet. It feels like if you spent over 400 dollars on tea and some pastries, you should get parking. I guess that is downtown LA for you.

    the menu for the cocktail

    A very elite experience - the private room bar in the back of the Hoxton Hotel in DTLA. Highly recommend this place for something slightly off the beaten path. Our server was very jovial and one of the cocktails was prepared table side. I got the Ultima Palabra - the Mexican gin was a new experience for me and the drink was excellent. My boyfriend got the Old Fashioned - the smokiness was a nice touch. We also got one of their nibbles - the serrano ham - which was perfect and literally three bites worth.

(These are getting fewer and fewer as I travel) Yeah, each bar listed above has its own vibe, and depending on your mood, your own individual style or even what kind of night out on the town you are looking to have... The type of bar you choose is important. But sometimes, the Bar Chooses You! Bar Magnolia quietly enters the chat. It was October 11th, 2025 and my wife & I just checked into Hotel Figueroa in DTLA. (EPIC REVIEW Coming Soon!!!) While we were waiting for our room to be ready, we decided to check out the Hotel Bar Lounge... First thought, Color me Impressed! High ceilings, Natural lighting, classy decor, comfy couches... Yeah, take your time with that room, we'll wait! So we plopped down onto their sofa, waited for a cocktail menu, and let the "we left the kids at home with Grandma; let's enjoy being kid-free for the night begin". $18.00 cocktails....Lets Goooo!! Looking back at the Photos, I can't exactly recall what we ordered... Was it a whiskey sour? Was it a paper plane?? Honestly, Who cares! They tasted great. I was sitting across from a beautiful woman. And we were responsibly adulting. What more could a guy ask for?? I'm glad you asked! After a long car ride in, sipping on water, then the first few sips of my cocktail, I suddenly had to go... Luckily, the restrooms are located just adjacent to the bar area and DAMN are they clean!! Hey, if a bar restroom is well taken care of, you know the place has Class.... And Bar Magnolia has the Class to Match! Of course, there is bar stool seating at the bar... (I usually prefer sitting at the bar as there's always some great stories to be heard and when it time to order another round, you can literally just cut out the... Middle Man (Aka waiting for your server to come check back in) In addition to the bar top stools, there are also low top tables, and a few couch-chairs with a low top table for more intimate conversations. Besides those $18 craft cocktails, a short, well Curated list of bubbles, vino and draft beers are all up for grabs. Unfortunately, we had stopped to eat before we arrived (bad move on our part), but next time, and THERE WILL BE A NEXT TIME, we will definitely partake in their food menu (cause damn, did it look GOOD!) So whether you are a guest of Hotel Figueroa, you are leaving the Crypto Arena after a concert and want to paint the town red, or you are simply just wanting to sit, relax and enjoy a nice cocktail at a classy, upscale, but not so pretentious Cocktail Lounge... Bar Magnolia is your place! Well, it's almost closing time, they are about to call for Last Call, so order us another round, bottoms up and Cheers to us!!!

Once there, I was told happy hour is only Monday through Thursday. I pulled up their own website and showed it to the server. The response? A shrug. No apology, no explanation, no effort to make it right. This is straight-up false advertising, and the lack of accountability made it worse. If you're going to change your happy hour, update your website and train your staff to handle it professionally. I shouldn't have to argue with a bar over their own posted information. Won't be back.

Service: U get seated & then they forget you exist! The greeter finally asked if we're being served n took our order herself! After a while my partner's tea arrives - a cup of hot water & a teabag - no sweetener or spoon. When we finally get the attention of a rare staff, she says we don't have sweetener but I'll check! Sure enough she had a bunch! It's like they're avoiding service.. but they're in the service industry! Staff: Few n far between! Untidy (stained shirt partly tucked in) & unmotivated! You'd think a swanky location like that could provide neat uniforms to their wait staff! Food: I ordered the ham n cheese sandwich which I thought I'd get fast bcz its easy to make, given how slow they were, but I asked for chicken instead of ham since I don't eat pork.. mind you, they have a chicken club sandwich on the menu so it shd be easy, but NO!!! The waitress said "we'll charge extra for chicken". GET OUTTA HERE!!! Ure telling me chicken is more expensive than ham?? My partner got fries bcz he was afraid the wait for anything else would be long! We saw a bunch of people enter, sit around & leave, bcz they're being ignored. We almost did too, but I just paid $28 for parking in a lot (it's $35 at the hotel) so we waited, ate, paid & ended up going elsewhere for a proper dinner after this ridiculous debacle!

My girlfriend and I ordered two Old Fashioneds made with Ilegal Mezcal. The bottle being used was nearly empty, and as professionals in the hospitality industry, we are very familiar with proper pour standards. It was clear there wasn't enough product left for two consistent drinks. The bartender, Bryan, prepared both cocktails without using a jigger. When I politely asked why one drink appeared noticeably lighter than the other and why he wasn't measuring the pour, he smirked, gave a slight laugh, and responded that he "knows the exact measurement of his glasses." The tone and gesture felt dismissive and mocking rather than professional. Instead of addressing a reasonable concern with transparency, the response came across as defensive and condescending. To make matters worse, a 20% gratuity was automatically added, bringing the total to $71.12 for two inconsistent Old Fashioneds. Precision, consistency, and respect are basic standards in this industry. Unfortunately, this experience did not reflect that. We won't be returning.
