    Caprese sandwich with chicken
    Leonard K.

    I stayed here the other day and the lovely hotel and after swimming in the pool, hunger struck. If it was still the summer season, food could've been delivered to me right at poolside, but it's after Labor Day, so it is what it is... Anyway, I decided to grab a short rib quesadilla, which was absolutely phenomenal, especially when paired with the salsa and sour cream. Yum. This is definitely worth getting as the braised meat just pairs so perfectly in the quesadilla. In addition, the chicken caprese sandwich was ordered, which seemed quite healthy, along with a side of fries that were really good. I'm glad I got to enjoy this lunch and if you're looking for an amazing quesadilla from some extremely kind hosts and bartenders, make sure to stop by here for a bite! P.S. They do room service too!

    Crème brûlée tart
    Yunhea K.

    The bar was so dope, I loved the lighting and aesthetics. We sat at the bar to drink a bit and ordered some food. We had just ate dinner so I wanted a dessert. My bf got me the crème brûlée tart and it was so delicious, I got it with a little mocha and it paired perfectly. We also got crab cakes and Kung Pao wings which my friends said were really good. The wings had a kick to it but not unbearable where you can't enjoy it. It was a good experience and vibe.

    Really bad scrambled eggs which is kinda hard to do. They were extremely dry and tiny crumbles.

    I ate here twice during my stay, once for a late lunch and once for breakfast. It's your typical hotel food. The food preparation is always a little off. For instance, they offer a French onion soup in a sourdough bread bowl. I thought they'd put the soup in the bowl in a container so it wouldn't absorb into the bread. Came in the bowl. It was a big soggy mess. There was no broth. The bread was mostly inedible. I ate the crust. The green salad - great components like charred corn and avocado. It came doused in so much dressing I felt like there was nothing healthy about it. It was pretty soggy and unappetizing. Breakfast...the bacon was good. The yogurt parfait had mushy fruit and granola like it had been reused or something, maybe pulled out of a fridge it had been in overnight (a few days). It was like pulling teeth to get service. I had to get up to ask for coffee. I had to remind the server my breakfast companion ordered an almond croissant and coffee and could he check on it because he needed to be quick and cheap, which is why he ordered it. I guess they don't feel they need to give any customer service because a 20% tip is automatically applied to the bill. My advice: Pay for an uber to a different restaurant!

    Chicken salad with truffle fries
    Logan P.

    The food was good but the service was better! I came in mid April and the salad was amazing. I wish I knew her name I'm going to call her Amanda but when I complained about the truffle fries she took care of it! Don't get the truffle fries here though. They're called truffle fries because they're cooked in truffle oil which isn't true truffle fries!

    Wings were spicy
    Renee D.

    I ate here twice during my stay, once at the bar and once in the dining room. Both experiences were just okay. Bar- I arrived to late for breakfast because apparently I did not read the paper they gave me at check in with all that information on it. So I was told if I wait 30 minutes I could order lunch instead. So I sat at the bar and waited, and waited and waited. I was finally presented with a menu, a very limited menu. I ordered a cup of coffee and the wings. Drank my coffee and ate a few wings. The wings were spicy and I liked them. I wanted a refill of my coffee to take back upstairs to my room and was told there was no more. What???? That's beyond odd. Dining Room-Finally arrived in time and received a voucher for the breakfast buffet but I thought I could also order from a menu. This was not the case as a matter of fact. I don't see why it would be a problem but for whatever reason it was so I stuck with the buffet which included all the usual suspects. Fruit, eggs, sausages, bacon, potatoes and what not. Filled me up but that's about it.

    Loup de Mer!  Dynamite!
    Ariana O.

    This place a hidden gem. Incredible service from Paco our waiter. He was so kind and gave wonderful recommendations. This restaurant is located inside of the Indigo Hotel in downtown. The decor is Hollywood glam with a trendy contemporary flair. Very calm and relaxing atmosphere. We ordered the Loup de mer and Baja fish tacos. Everything was dynamite! Can't wait to return!

    Vegan Tacos (shareable)
    Crystal C.

    After a long day of travels, vegan tacos are exactly what the doctor ordered! Metropole Bar & Kitchen is conveniently located in the lobby of the Indigo Hotel Downtown Los Angeles. We were immediately served as soon as our entire group arrived and the service continued to be quick throughout the night. The atmosphere was quiet. Our table neighbors got a little loud at one point, but I'm sure it was just old friends catching up. It would be great if the restaurant had live music every evening. Other than that, my food was amazing! I ordered the vegan tacos and a side Indigo salad! Both were delicious and very filling!

    Came here for New Years Eve dinner. First off, parking is awful because it's in Downtown LA. We ended up parking in the Metropolis garage. The restaurant "validated" our parking ticket, but it was fake. We still had to pay the full $18. Maybe there was a different parking garage we were supposed to park in. Wish the restaurant had clearer instructions on where to park. The restaurant is located inside a hotel. I didn't have much expectations since there weren't many reviews on Yelp, but I was pleasantly surprised by the meal. The first course was the scallops. There were two, and they were very tender and delicious. The second course was a salad, which was just average. The main course was filet mignon and lobster tail. I thoroughly enjoyed this dish because how can you not like surf and turf? The filet and the lobster were both definitely more on the raw side, but at least it was tender. The dessert was the salted lava cake, which was so rich and delicious. Overall, I would give the food itself 4.5 stars. Ambience is a 4/5 (quite beautiful, but on the small side and a little weird since it's inside the hotel). Service would be 3/5 stars (slow service because they seemed understaffed. They also messed up the salad order for my boyfriend and almost didn't give my boyfriend the apple tart dessert he ordered). Parking would be 0/5 stars.

    Steak and Eggs
    Alexis C.

    Ate here before checking out of Hotel Indigo. My group thought the prices were a little high, but the food was delicious and satisfying once it arrived. Our waiter wasn't very attentive to our table though... there were other tables with larger parties who arrived after us and got their meals before us. It wasn't even busy around 10AM when we came to breakfast either. Our group ordered: Steak and Eggs, Central Market Sandwich, Omelette. Portions were large and delicious for the sticker shock prices. Based off the flavor of the food, I'd eat here again!

    Lemondrop martini!
    Stacey S.

    Stopped by the bar (only) a few times before going out for the day. Cool styles, some really good drinks, decent service, I would say they could be a tad more attentive but overall a good place for a cocktail. The only thing I did not like is the bar stools are made for people with small hips and long legs or something. I had to position myself in a way that kept me from sliding off the stool. Maybe the material I was wearing and the slippery material of the bar stools? Drinks are a little pricey but being from out of town I expected as much.

    Quick and easy
    Ramon A.

    Overall - Slightly better than average restaurant, a 3.5. Food - The family ordered two quick and easy meals, the MBK breakfast sandwich and a create your own omelet. My MBK was good but lacked seasoning, I think a little salt and pepper would have complemented the feta and spinach. The quick and easy looked good but neither my daughter nor wife were impressed by their orders, "it was average". My son had the omelet and said "it was just eggs" ... understood. We have been to a lot of great breakfast and brunch places, maybe this restaurant serves a better different meal. Service - Rita helped us today after a few minutes of passing us by and eventually stopping to ask if anyone else had helped us which I thought was weird, were we in your section or not. Nothing else to say here. Location - located in downtown LA, in the lobby of the Hotel Indigo. I did not see street parking but I know the hotel offers valet and there was a parking lot across the street. Ambiance - The look of the restaurant was very nice, modern and spacious with a good amount of space.

    arroz con pollo
    Cheyenne G.

    Wanted to have a little date night with my bf last minute so a lot of our favs were booked. Ended up finding this place and decided to try it out. We were not guests of the hotel we just wanted to eat and drink. We chose from what it looked like two of the best things on the menu, couldn't help but notice their other options were less appealing, their aguachile tower is not a tower, their empenadas are small, etc. but our choices were REALLY GOOD! I ordered the arroz con pollo, so fresh and tender. And my bf ordered the snapper chicharon and it was so soft and juicy. The place itself is small and cute, and the bathrooms are so clean and nice. The service was also fast and friendly.

    metro burger
    Carolina M.

    What a great restaurant! We started with the Apple Salad and the cheese charcuterie. Wow! The honey from the charcuterie was AMAZING! I want to know the brand everything was delicious. Then we did the MKB Burger that is huge and yummy and the steak hanger! The truffle fries are a must too! Great experience and gorgeous place!

    Hey, are you even 21??…read more I'm gonna need to see some ID before I can let you enter... (Moments later) You can't possibly be 21, you were born in 2005... (Counting backwards on my fingers) Oh. My. God, I'm getting old!!!! ---------------------------- Alright now that we got that out of the way.... Listen up, & Listen up Good. Cause Tonight, Tonight, I'm setting the Bar straight! Now,.... Make sure to hang onto your ID, stay plenty hydrated & be ready to pace yourself... Cause we are about to Hit the bar running and go full throttle with some virtual bar hopping. But first, let's see just how many styles of bars there really are. -Ahh the classic, no-frills Dive Bar -The Cocktail Bar/The Martini Bar -The Sports bar, The BeerGarden -The Pub, The Tavern, The Biker Bar (make sure you wear your best leather pants) -The Hotel Bar, The Rooftop Bar, The Lounge -The Night Club, The Comedy Club, The Karaoke Bar -The Tiki Bar, The Wine Bar -The hidden Speakeasy (my personal Fav.) And of course, where even at 8am there's no judgement passed... -The Airport Bar. Speaking of Traveling... Bonus: Consider yourself lucky if your hotel room just happens to have a well-stocked mini bar. (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!!!

    Came to Bar Magnolia on a Friday evening specifically for happy hour, which their website clearly…read moreadvertises as Monday-Friday. 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.

Our group waited close to…read moretwo hours before getting in but we also planned in advance to get there early and wait so that we would be able to get it. Could communication have been better? Absolutely. I think more frequent updates about wait times and capacity would have helped manage expectations. That said, once we got inside, we honestly had a great time. The atmosphere was fun, the energy was amazing, and it was clear that the staff was working incredibly hard. They were dealing with a crowd that seemed much larger than anyone anticipated, and despite being understaffed, everyone we interacted with remained professional and friendly. I also think it's important to be realistic about the situation. There were people lined up far down the street, and just looking at the size of the restaurant, it was obvious that there was no way everyone would be able to get in. It was an extremely popular event, and the demand simply exceeded the venue's capacity. I completely understand why some people left feeling frustrated, especially if they waited and didn't get in. At the same time, I don't think the staff deserved the level of criticism they've been receiving. From what I saw, they were doing their best in a difficult situation and trying to accommodate as many people as possible. For our group, the wait ended up being worth it. We had a great time cheering on Korea, enjoyed the food and drinks, and made some fun memories with friends. No event is perfect, especially with a huge crowd. We had a good time and will be back

    I arrived at 3:30 p.m. for a 6:00 p.m. World Cup match after being told by the establishment a week…read moreearlier that seating was first-come, first-served and that arriving before 4:00 p.m. would not be a problem. When I arrived, there were only about 15-20 people ahead of me in line. As the afternoon progressed, the line stretched down the street, yet no staff member came outside to communicate capacity limits, seating availability, or where the line should reasonably end. Even more concerning, patrons were not admitted until after the match had already started. The situation quickly became chaotic. People who had waited for hours were understandably frustrated, and many were openly voicing their concerns. Groups were admitted one at a time, creating further delays. When it was finally my turn to enter, I was informed that all tables had been taken and that only standing room remained. I was allowed to look inside before deciding whether to stay. What I observed was particularly disappointing: many individuals who had not been ahead of me in line were already seated at tables. I have no idea how they got in but I suspect they were allowed in through some other entrance. After waiting more than two hours based on the information provided by the establishment, this felt unfair and misleading. Most disappointing was having invited friends to join me for the match, only to have the experience ruined by what appeared to be poor planning and inadequate crowd management. The demand for a major World Cup match should not have come as a surprise. If the venue anticipated significant attendance, additional seating, staffing, and clear communication should have been put in place. This was one of the most poorly managed event experiences I have encountered. At a minimum, I believe the ownership should publicly acknowledge what occurred and apologize to the many customers who invested hours of their time only to be left without the accommodations they were promised. Unfortunately, I will not be returning.

First there was only one bartender serving guests and the line got long. Surely not enough support for an evening. Second, drinks are overpriced and not good. $18 for basic drinks like a tequila soda and margarita. I would pay that for a nicely crafted cocktail but that's not what you're going to get here. Spicy marg and mezcal cocktail were not enjoyable at all in my opinion. They have a decent selection of canned drinks. Didn't try them but probably better off just getting one of those. I might come back depending on the party. Big might.
