Great place to catch live bands in Long Beach. Free parking in the private lot and on the…read moresurrounding streets. They consistently have food options now, tonight was a wood fired pizza vendor. Delicious! Smoking area. Easy line of sight from most places in the room. Looks like they renovated the place in the past 3 years and added a lot more seating. Drink ledges and barstools now line all the walls. Thank God because a full night of standing on concrete can be hard on us elder punk rockers. The place feels divey but safe and not overpriced. Alex lands some big names too along with very unique DJ and trivia nights. Bartenders aren't stuck up.

This is the worst experience at a bar I've ever had…read more I've been to a lot of places, and this is the only place where I have encountered truly disrespectful staff. I have tried multiple times to get into contact with Alex's Bar over disturbing behavior exhibited by one of their bar backs, and either they choose to ignore me or just do not care. When a place can't even answer their phone or respond to basic inquiry, it raises the question if they even care about their customers or just booking the next musical act to sell tickets.

A great little bar with nightly entertainment. We went on a Wednesday night. $5 donation to a…read morecharity run by the musicians to teach poor kids music for free. 2 drinks minimum. The place opens at 8 pm but the music didn't start until 9:50 pm. It was pretty empty at the beginning but people started showing up later. Nice cool decor and lighting. Speakeasy and nightclub vibes. Excellent sound. Drinks were decent. No food available, so make sure to eat before coming. They have comedy nights and burlesque on weekends. I plan to go to a weekend show next.

I bought tickets for the Bad Bunny Superprebowl Burlisque scheduled for 730pm to 9:00pm…read more We got there early to get some good seats, we had General seating We happened to grab two bar stools by the main performance stage. I had to flag our assigned waitress to get some adult beverages. Ordered House wine and my wife ordered a sweet cocktail. We kept ordering drinks all night. The problem with that is that our waitress had to get flagged everytime! She never checked up on us. She attended to those that had reserved table seating. Very dissapointed on customer service. Overall the show was classy. Great choreography, vibing to some reggaeton music. No complaints about the show. We had fun! This place is the only Burlisque show that I know or aware of that is in the Long Beach area. Check the website to view the lineup. Category changes everytime. Great ambiance with clean restrooms. Parking will be on the street or timed parking structure. I would comeback. My experience only, yours might be better.

That venue was fun came to see some friends bands play and let me say it sounded good and just had a whole vibe here like you can't go wrong!

I neither drink nor am I a regular at bars/clubs but this past Saturday, I decided to check 4…read moreestablishments in Downtown Long Beach, At The Top being one of them. This place is located on the 2nd floor of Shannon's On Pine Irish Pub & Sports Bar. The first thing that stood out (after having been to Sevilla Nightclub just a mere hour before visiting this place) was how lax security was. And by lax, I mean they don't pat you or check you for guns at all. Cover IS free so that's definitely a plus. The whole place smells of marijuana smoke and the floor was kind of sticky. They do give out free water, which is nice but they don't have disposable cups, rather they have regular plastic clubs that I'm assuming are washed regularly? The music was ok. Not my thing but I can definitely groove to some Hip-Hop/R&B every now and then. The patrons were friendly and it was easy to make conversation and connect with others. Some of the people were already high as a kite there, though, lol. Again, I can't comment on the drinks or their prices, since all I usually have is soda, or water if it's available. Overall, a bit of an improvement over Sevilla in some respects, and not as good as Sevilla in others. Final Score: 3/5, just like Sevilla Nightclub down the street.

Will say it was definitely spacious. It would be nice if they had some standing tables or even more places to sit without it being for only service bottle girls. I will say everyone's experience shall be different since a random person kinda punched me and left me a bruise due to a mosh pit. But again this really isn't the clubs fault. Overall it's not bad for a bar. It was nice that they had an elevator since it's in the second floor. About is accessible to ppl who need to use the elevator!! Also one thing, maybe be more thorough with security. They didn't check bags and just checked for ID only. Oooo also don't be warned with parking!! It's better to park in a garage you all!!!

¡Olé, olé, olé, olé... olé... olé!…read more If you're looking for the perfect place to watch a soccer match, this is it. We came for the Mexico vs. Korea game and the energy inside was electric. The crowd, the excitement, and the overall atmosphere made it such a fun viewing party. The DJ really helped elevate the experience and kept the energy going all game long. It truly felt like the place to be for soccer fans. Food-wise, I definitely recommend the chicken quesadilla. Also, the mojitos downstairs were excellent--super refreshing and worth trying! Just note they weren't available at the viewing party on the 3rd floor. Overall, such a great spot for a game-day experience. We'll definitely be back, and next time we want to try more from the full restaurant menu.

If you want good paella, do not come here…read more This was honestly the worst paella I've ever had, which was really disappointing because the restaurant itself had a nice atmosphere and live music. We ordered a half seafood and half meat paella, with added lobster and pork belly. Unfortunately, the actual food was terrible. Main issues: * The bottom of the seafood side was completely black and burnt instead of having a crispy socarrat. There's a huge difference between crispy rice and burnt rice. * The lobster was severely overcooked, burnt, and tasted terrible. * The pork belly was an extra charge, but there was barely any visible pork belly in the dish. It honestly just looked like tiny bacon pieces. * All of the meat throughout the paella was severely overcooked. Positives: * Our waiter was very nice. * The ambiance was good. * The live music added a fun vibe. * It was my birthday, so they gave me a complimentary ice cream dessert at the end, which I appreciated. Unfortunately, none of that made up for how bad the paella itself was.

The owner, Blake, was a bartender of the legendary Red Room, which is now Baby Gee. His love of skateboarding is reflected on the walls with mounted skate decks and skate videos playing on the screens. I usually come here on first Saturdays when the DJs play soulful house music. I don't recall trying any food here, but their drinks are stiff with plenty of beer on tap. No fancy, craft cocktails, but good ol' classic cocktails we used to get for cheap at the Red Room. If you are hungry, the kitchen is open till 10pm serving up burgers, fries, hot dogs, salads, Mexican food and vegan items. The bartenders are cool af. Be sure to tip them!
