I ordered "The Meaty Vegan" over a salad with a side of fries, and he got the New York strip steak. The food was incredibly flavorful and seasoned to perfection. Next time, I definitely want to try "Islands Collide" when it's back in stock! We were greeted right away for our 6:45 PM reservation, and I am so glad we booked ahead. The place filled up incredibly fast--before I even finished my second glass of wine, it was an absolute full house. The ambiance was top-tier, complete with a live DJ. Unbeknownst to us, it was R&B and Soul Music Bingo night, and the jam was jamming! The entire vibe was beautifully Black-owned and vibrant. Our server, Alexandria W., was incredibly professional, friendly, kind, knowledgeable, and proactive. Despite there being only two servers for an entirely packed house, you would never know it because they remained so cool, collected, and unfazed. Everyone was well taken care of, and the room was filled with great spirits. There were two large parties celebrating, and the energy was so welcoming it felt like we were a part of the fun even though we weren't. The entire establishment, including the restrooms, was pristine. We opted for valet, which was clutch since I was wearing heels. I even noticed a single woman get approached by a gentleman at the bar--this truly is a wonderful space for couples, groups, friends, and singles alike. We look forward to visiting again soon! Love that this gem is in Inglewood.

The sauce was good, had a nice kick of flavor. The chicken on the other hand did not like how it was prepared, I feel like grilling would have been better.

Great place for a glass (or few) of wine and dinner. It felt cozy and intimate without being too loud. The guy at the bar, who I assume was either the owner or manager, was really personable and welcoming. He poured us a couple samples and we ended up going with a red that we really liked. We ordered the focaccia, meatballs, and lasagna, which we both really enjoyed. Tasted like we were having a meal at someone's home. There's a small back lot for parking but street parking was relatively easy to find. You can also ask for a table nearby a wall plug if you need somewhere to plug in your laptop. This is going to be our go-to eats+wine+study spot when we're on the west side.

He allowed me to watch him do his magic during his set. It's a skill I've longed to learn as part of many on the good ol bucket list. What comes to mind when thinking about this venue is comparable to a person inherently born with a lot of charisma. Prices are fair, especially for the area. But the drinks are where it really stands out. They're clearly made with fresh, high quality ingredients. I will warn you it's the kind of place you come for one and end up staying longer than you planned :)

Came in after having dinner nearby and wanting to have a late-night cocktail. Drinks: Ordered the X Cadillac Margarita. It was just okay. Not bad, but also nothing special. Service: The bartender was friendly, but the service was somewhat spotty. Environment: I will say that the place was pretty crowded, and everyone was having a lot of fun. There's a small dance floor in the back. Bottom Line: It's a fun place that straddles the line between dive bar and local hotspot.

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.

This is my third time departing from LAX, and I've stopped by for a couple of glasses of champagne before takeoff each time.

The prices are definitely on the higher side (as expected at an airport), but the quality, selection, and relaxed vibe make it worth it. Highly recommend stopping in if you have some time before your flight! Made a couple of new friends from Australia and Colombia hope their flights went well!
