This bar was just on the edge of boogie glory when I strolled through. Everyone, & I mean, everyone in the bar was jamming & dancing. The pool players were two stepping, the bartender was twerking it out, and the people at the bar were on their feet swaying to the beats. The man supplying the rhythms this night was DJ Believethat. He mixed in all the late night heaters & floor fillers. I definitely remember the bar crowd switching on to full dance party mode when DJ Believethat dropped "Candy Rain." DJ Believethat even left the decks to share in the fancy footwork. I got around to having a beer. I must admit it tasted like a beer. It was cold. I found the beer added to the overall levity of the evening. Others were throwing down shots now & then. Anyone who sets foot in the Crow's Nest on a Thursday will definitely get lifted, but hey that's levitation, Holmes.

Pool cues and tables aren't in the best conditions, but they work. Their signature cocktails are dangerously good and reasonably priced at $14. 2-3 drinks in and I'm stumbling home. Bartenders are always chill and quick to serve. Love when they have DJs. Their jukebox could use some updating of a wider selection of eclectic tunes. They have a decent amount of seating at the bar as well as a few booths and a couple tables. Cool wall paper decor and an old school photo booth for anyone wanting a memento.

We arrived and there were a few parties leaving, we walked to the bar area and the two servers were occupied with other guests, so we patiently waited. Finally one of them approached us and shared the menu, another gentleman came to the bar and he was quickly greeted with a hello and our same server immediately shared the menu. The gentleman politely said, these ladies were here first please take their order first, which the server did but was not so happy about. To our surprise the server still prepared his drinks first. The gentleman very surprised apologized since he knew we were there before him. With our drinks in hand we found a table with some empty seats. The table side where we sat had a sprite glass bottle and a glass that hadn't been picked up since the last party left. We moved it a side to set our drinks and finally enjoy our conversation. A different server came to the table and asked the gentleman next to us to get his empty glass and she completely ignored our side. She did another round and I finally asked her to pick up the bottle that was left by another party before us. I asked her for the menu again, she brought it but she did say that I had go back up to the bar to order any additional drinks. We decided to not order a second round and head up to the terrace.

The bartender who is also the barista was so welcoming. I love the historical aspect of this building and they did an incredible job with the maintenance of it. The marble and gold and earthly tones which are deep and rich! Sigh! They're open til 10pm... I'll be back

Your hao peng you (good friend) on Yelp is sending you a sign to check this hidden gem out! ;)…read more As someone of Taiwanese descent, I always get SO excited discovering Taiwanese restaurants and bars, which are admittedly a bit hard to find if you're not in East LA. We stopped by late Saturday night and were able to snag an immediate walk-in at the bar at Hao Peng You, which is the intimate speakeasy portion of Midnight Oil. The decor definitely reminded me of my grandparents' house in Taiwan, with vintage, ornate wooden chairs, dragon/lion statue carvings, and even a historic century old marital bed that had been repurposed into a booth. The drinks were also VERY unique, with my favorite being Hua sheng (literally meaning peanut), which was crafted from a nostalgic childhood peanut milk drink. All our cocktails were crafted very well, to the point where I thought they were a bit on the lighter side since I couldn't really taste the alcohol. This section does get really busy though and only had one bartender who is making/serving drinks and taking orders, so do expect a bit of a wait. Overall, highly recommend checking out this vibey vintage Taiwanese-inspired speakeasy (that my inner history nerd was so excited about), and I'll definitely be back to try their food items as well as their two other bar/restaurant concepts!

The atmosphere is cute and definitely a vibe, but it's pretty pricey…read more The drinks weren't bad, some were good, while others had a stronger alcohol taste than I personally prefer. As for the food, it was pretty mid and took a long time to come out. The popcorn chicken especially disappointed me since it didn't taste like Taiwanese popcorn chicken at all. It was more like chicken nuggets?? Overall, I wouldn't recommend coming here for the food. The bathroom was also a bit dirty. Drinks: * Hua Sheng (3/5): Nutty aftertaste, but the alcohol flavor was pretty strong. * Salty Plums (4/5): My favorite out of everything we ordered, super refreshing. * Jasmine Milk Tea Coma (3/5): My second favorite, but I wish the strawberry flavor came through more.

I asked the DJ if he took request and if the song, I was requesting mixed well with what he was playing. He said said yes. So, I tipped the DJ. Waited 30 minutes. Then asked the DJ when he was going to play my song request and he said he already played it. I never heard the song played and none of my 6 friends with the same birthday party heard the song either. I had 1 vodka drink. It tasted like vodka flavored water. It was a definitely underpour. It was my first time here. I am not sure what's going on with establishment. I saw the 4-star review for this place but there is definitely a disconnect. I won't be hopping back to the grasshopper anytime soon

It's a IYKYK kind of place here. We didn't know about it as we were here meeting some friends for…read moredrinks. They made all the reservations. Honestly thought it was the bar that we came inside. First impression, why did we need reservations.... Since we didn't know the hidden entrance. Well, it's a cool concept once we entered. There's a dress code so be advised. What I found out was the entrance of the speakeasy was through a phone booth that next to the pool table of Roxanne's bar. Once reservations is made, you'll received an email with a password to enter. Enter phone booth and to connect to the inside and they'll open the door for you. We had the first reservations I believe they opened at 7pm. We were the first group to arrive. As it was my first time, we had ordered bar food and were waiting for it inside the main bar. So half an hour was used from our time limit. The speakeasy, dark and moody but perfect for the place. Special crafted cocktails by the bartenders which were great. They also have food as well, found out later. We did try the meat pie, which it was just ok. Basically an empanadas, the pickle veggies accompanied it was my favorite. It was good but nothing major to rave about. The drinks were quite nice and tasty. What they offered on the menu did have a load of good choices. Tables scattered throughout as well as bar seating. There's a piano which maybe used for live music. Overall, the moody speakeasy vibe was great. Friendly staff and bartender made some great drinks. What we had to snack on, the meat pie was just ok. They're very strict with the time limits. Once it's reached they'll let you know.

Service was very friendly including our server and the hosts. I was impressed that when they brought all of our food out, there were multiple servers and they knew which dish belonged to whom in our party of 5. They have a wide variety of menu options. I ordered the lamb burger because it's not something you normally see on a restaurant menu. It was delicious! Everyone in our group really enjoyed their food. Looking forward to going back!

All appetizers are $4 off-Whoo hoo!!! Muscles weee delish-in a garlic lemon sauce. The poke wraps were tricky to eat, as the wasabi inspired sauce was really runny...so they got really messy...but they were solid. It came with rice with soy sauce. All pretty basic ingredients. The dining room was nicely decorated- dark walls w oversized brightly painted art systematically placed. The dessert was disappointing. We love tiramisu..so we thought the pistachio tiramisu would be a fun take. Pistachio overload. No layers of flavors like tiramisu at all. The only nod to tiramisu were the ladyfingers. (Not smoked i. Espresso and served in. A cup. Definitely avoid that if you are craving a tiramisu. After we told the server this...he did say a lot of people expect it to be like tiramisu. (Knowing this, Not sure why he didn't give us a heads up)
