I wouldn't use the term dive bar here because it's more classy and well put together to be the traditional visage of 'dive bar'; despite being hidden in plain site. Also, the menu is vastly different than any dive bar. The place has a great vibe, vintage-modern classic theme, great lighting scheme, nice patio space, and just has a great hangout vibe. The service I've received has been impeccable. ** CASH ONLY is really my only knock on it. I've never carried much cash since the advent of plastic pay and the world is increasingly cashless. So, your experience will be limited by the cash available in your pocket.

This is THE cigar lounge in all of the 818! Amazing ambiance…read moreboth inside and out. As soon as you walk in you are greeted by the nicest and most knowledgable owner. The walk-in humidor has some of the best selections of cigars you can find. If you don't know what you want, the owner provides great insight and recommends you a cigar based off of your experience and needs. Choosing to set inside or out in the patio is always a tough choice because you cannot go wrong with either one. If you choose to sit inside, it truly feels like being at that part of your home were you go to relax and unwind. There are multiple tvs with primetime UFC, NFL, NHL and NBA games. If you are looking to do some activities while you enjoy your cigar you can grab some friends and have a poker tournament or play some board games. Or you sit on one of the many sofas, read or get some work done. The outside patio feels serene. The lighting and set up of the patio gives an area of peace and quiet in an otherwise busy city. It feels like a great temporary escape from everyday life. Very beautiful. Along with the cigars that are a variety of snack and drink options. Always keep an eye out on the socials from special events i.e jazz nights. Overall, I highly recommend La Casa Cigar Lounge. You can't go wrong.

I think most people realize banquet halls throughout Los Angeles typically provide mediocre food by…read moresubpar service and an overly bougie/gaudy atmosphere. To my surprise, DeLuxe is rather classy with decent food and fantastic service. Our waiter was constantly checking on our table, bringing us food and drinks as we needed or requested, clearing and replacing plates and silverware, and even serving us when we were fully capable of doing so ourselves. The place (including bathrooms) was clean, modern, and in good shape. As for the main event - the food - there are just so many plates on your table you won't even realize what you forgot to eat or try. The "good" on our list included all the kebabs, the fish was amazing, chicken salad was surprisingly good but also surprised to be there at all; the mutabbal wasn't half bad; olive "salad" was amazing but spicy; fatoush was okay, baked mushrooms with cheese were delicious, and the licorice green drink soda something was refreshing. However, there were some downsides to the food as well. The sarma, boreg, and fatayer were just embarassing and tasted bad/bland. The bread was stale and dry, the muhammra was a joke to Syrians and the shrimp was just a wast to be there. Overall, a pretty good location!

Extremely convenient, but it's certainly a luxury that shouldn't be taken for granted. The staff was all around TERRIFIC, sooo accommodating, and our private plane was extremely clean with fantastic food (snacks, meals, beverages, alcohol, etc.). The huge bathrooms on these planes are always well stocked with a variety of toiletries (tampons, wipes, Q tips, mouth wash, toothbrushes and pastes, sprays, etc.). I enjoy flying private when I have the opportunity, but wouldn't recommend it if you tend to develop motion sickness easily!

I had such a great experience at Firefly! From the moment we sat down, our waiter, Drew, was…read moreabsolutely incredible. Our entire party kept saying we hadn't received service that attentive, genuine, and professional in a very long time. He made the whole evening feel effortless and was a huge part of why we enjoyed ourselves so much. The food, drinks, and overall ambiance were all fantastic. Every dish we ordered was delicious, but the fried olives are an absolute must--I'm still dreaming about them! The music got a little loud at one point, but it was a Friday night, so it was completely understandable. We were just a tired group after a long week. If anything, it gave me another reason to come back on a weekday so I can experience the atmosphere in a different setting. Overall, an amazing dinner with outstanding service. We'll definitely be back, and hopefully Drew will be our server again!

We visited Tonga Hut during their recent "Spring Time Schenanigans" tiki marketplace event. They…read morehave a tiki marketplace several times a year, and this one was held on a Sunday afternoon from noon to 6pm. It takes place mostly in their rear patio area and parking lot, but a good number of vendors were also in an adjacent air conditioned event room. They have a very small parking lot, but it was occupied by vendors during this event. Do not park in the parking lots of the adjacent businesses, as we were warned when entering the Tonga Hut that cars get towed regularly. There's plenty of street parking in the nearby neighborhood. Entering from the rear, there is a good sized covered patio with around eight benches. We went inside to check it out and grab a drink. The interior is fairly small with four good sized booths, a lounge area with a large J-shaped couch with several small tables, and around ten seats at the bar. It is dimly lit with some basic tiki décor, and has an old-school feel. They had a fixed cocktail menu for this event which is understandable. We stood in line at the bar for about ten minutes, got our drinks and went out to the patio. The bartender was friendly, and didn't seem flustered by the high volume of patrons. I had the Horned Beast O' The Celtic Sea (Oceanus Hibernicus Irish Malt, Jamacian Rum, House Made Falernum & Orgeat, Peach, Citrus, Dash of Cherry Heering, $13). She had the Leprechaun Grog (Three Rums, Lime, Grapefruit, Honey, Spice, Soda, $14). Both drinks were good, were served in souvenir plastic cups, and were a bargain at $13 to $14. If you ordered a drink containing Oceanus whiskey, the bartender gave you a gold coin and you could exchange it with the Oceanus representative on the patio for a free T-shirt. Durango Tacos was setup near the rear entrance for food. We had four tacos (two carne asada and two veggie), and they were good and reasonably priced. This was the first tiki marketplace we have attended. There were around twenty vendors with a good assortment of art work, tiki mugs, tiki clothing, tiki décor, and other miscellaneous items. I purchased a few nice tiki shirts which were a steal at $20 and $25. The vendors and visitors were all very friendly and in a festive mood. We hung out for about ninety minutes and had a good time. We will return at some point to try their regular cocktail menu and see what it's like on a non-event night.

Sometimes they have servers, other times you order at the bar. The last time I went, there was a long line as only one bartender was making drinks, yikes! Despite that, the drinks are solid, reasonably priced, and strong! They have a variety of drinks and nightly specials. Each bartender also has their own "secret menu" specials that only they can make. The decor is very on theme, and they have a fire pit and heaters outside for when it is chilly.
