    Review 125/365 Day Challenge Very Long and awaited review for my local fav bar i go here for the good Dj vibes spinning the Best 80's/90's jam! When it 1st newly opened over a year ago. Got rebranded to this 80's bar night life bar. We love the vibe here because it brings us back to the days, feeling nostalgic kids growing up in the 80's! We LOVE the 80's cause I'm an 80's kid that's for sure. Only thing negative I'd say for this bar is a lot of us locals dislike the cover charge. It has went from $ 15 per person to $ 10 per person. I went this weekend with my cousin that's visiting from out of town (San Diego) got there right b4 midnight and they was still a cover charge. I get charging when it's a LIVE BAND performing which is at 10-11 p.m. but after that, there shouldn't be a cover charge at all. The decoration is pretty spot on with their 80's theme decked out. Neon lights, cassettes tapes. They serve finger/bar type of food which is decent. Wings, fries, nachos, tacos to name a few. They have these cool fish bowl mixed drinks they offer but it's pretty sweet and will mess you up. lol don't let the sweetness fool ya! The bar can get pretty packed along only 1/2 bar tenders working on each side. So getting service can be much slower on the past years visit. I came here with my cousin last month on a Saturday and they've closed at 1 a.m. not sure if the night was slow. But FYI we pulled up to the parking lot at there was no one in sight. Parking is bare. There's parking right out front of the bar & neighborhood streets. FYI BRING CASH for the ENTRANCE. CASH ONLY but they do have an ATM you can use to withdraw cash. FOLLOW their IG/ social media For future live bands that they'll be covering/Trubute. Special occasions. They do LIVE Karaoke on Sunday noghts

    Such a fun bar with great decor and an awesome DJ!! We had a blast here for my SIL 50th birthday!! My biggest issue is the actual bar situation. The bar was severely understaffed causing very long wait times for drinks. I'm talking like 20-30 minutes. It was insane. Other than that the whole experience was excellent!

    come early to get a table!

    My sister came here on a (to her) random Sunday night--- turns out it was Karaoke Night with Mr Roboto (he is a major slay.) She had such a great time, I had to join her the next weekend and I too had an AMAZING time. we even showed up the next Friday for Queen Tribute night. Thank you to Chris, you always make our night special whether you're serving us or just checking on how we're doing! New favorite local spot! I had heard of the other 80s bars in Orange County but was super excited to find this one pretty nearby to my neighborhood. Everyone is super friendly and just there to vibe. Love it.

    My husband & I have been to almost all of the 80s clubs owned by Dany Sanchez. This is our new favorite 80s club. Parking can be a challenge, but come early and snag a good table! Love the neighborhood, great crowd & wonderful service! We frequently see Danny at this bar. He's a really nice guy who will remember his frequent customers. Don't be shy to say HELLO to him! My favorite food to order is the carne asada quesadilla (Melt with you quesadilla). Don't know how they make it different, but it always hits the spot! I've stopped drinking, but when I did back then, my favorite drink was the Richard Blade Rum Runner. Obviously, their entire menu is 80s themed! DUH! Highly recommend you give this place a try if you like 80s music! Live cover bands & DJ are usually Fri & Sat nights. I believe Sun & Thurs are karaoke. Check their website for what's happening to be sure!

    I love 80's music! I went to celebrate my birthday and they had Madonna Tribute and a lady who sang her songs. The videos shown on the tv's bring you back in time. My teenage years. The drinks are good, the bartenders are friendly. Never left the dance floor unless it was to take a sip of my drink. Totally recommend going. You meet a lot of people too. I've been wanting to post a review for months. I'll be there soon.

    Our friends from Orange County took us to this bar because we all love The Smiths. They had a Smiths tribute band called Maladjusted who was awesome! Great band and singer! The cover charge is $10.00 cash. There's an atm if you don't have cash for the entrance. Upon arrival there's a very cool display of 80s memorabilia next to entrance. And two dance floors and lots of tables. Bathrooms are clean and Staff is great! Keeping everything in order, if you have any questions they are helpful. Parking is either on the street or in the parking lot. There's a variety of themed cocktails , beer and food. We had the best time and danced the night away. I would definitely love to come back! We have to try the food next time.

    I must say this place was a 10, clean & service was a 10 so attentive to our big group of 12 & Cindy & her other server who i wish i knew her name was amazing workers clearing table bringing water & our drinks. Live band was such a plus & yes the 80's was a hit. Thank you for a great night for my husbands 50th

    Cheers!

    A nostalgic but modern club. Great sound system, clean bathrooms, lots of parking, great service, food menu available, large selection of bar drinks and wonderful patrons. They have some drink and food specials depending on what nights you go. I got the tasty chicken wings that came with crispy fresh carrots and celery. I actually enjoyed the veggies! I like that their 2 taco order comes with chips and 2 dips. (Salsa and creamy green sauce.) I noticed a lot of friendly patrons smiling, relaxing AND dancing up a storm. Make sure to bring your dancing shoes. A good place for singles, couples and groups. Bring your ID!

    Sandy B.

    Yes! A place to dance and have fun! No cover charge on Thursday. Live bands on weekends. Great DJ who plays nothing but the best 80s music. Dance floors, stage, TVs, and a great bar for drinks and food. Limited parking. So fun, you just have to try it out.

    Cant wait to go back!

    Such a fun new place near me! Love a good themed bar. They did a great job converting it from Rems to a totally 80's bar. Fun themed drinks and food. Loving the fishbowls, they are huge! They have a great lineup of tribute bands for months to come.

He made the reservations online with Nine Social but when he got the confirmation, it said for Macallans so he called and spoke to the manager and we got a table here. Wine list was extensive and since he knew a lot about wine.... I told him to just choose for me. We did a pinot noir to start and then went to a cab. The cab was great! I ended the night with a moscato. I ordered the mango tango and he ordered the wedge. Both delish! The mango tango had that sweet and salty blend perfectly. For dessert we had the chocolate mousse. It was really good! Service was excellent! They let you try the wine before you order a glass! They checked on us constantly and were really attentive. The place had an older feel to it and it's quaint. I like the coziness of it. They had live music going on and Tom the pianist did a great job! He sang to me when Tom was playing. Super sweet! Tom came over to introduce himself and told us about music nights and there will be singers there. We love this place so much we stayed until closing time. We were the last ones to leave! We were already talking about coming back for when the singers will be there. Our first time here... And definitely won't be our last!

    Nine Social is a cozy wine bar located on the far west end of Birch Street in downtown Brea, right…read morenext to Macallans. There is a free parking garage right across the street. Their front of house focus is the wine bar, but they also have a good cocktail and martini menu, as well as a nice selection of food items. The interior is warm and cozy with two different seating areas. The larger front area has bar seating, quite a few tables, and a lounge area in the back corner with several couches. There is another area in the back which is smaller, and houses their cocktail bar and a number of two seat high top tables. You can order anything on the menu from either area. We sat at the bar in front for some Sunday evening cocktails and small bites. We started out with the spinach & artichoke dip ($15). The dip came out very hot, was a big portion, and was very good. However, the menu said it came with toast points, but instead it was served with tortilla chips which were just ok. The advertised toast points or fresher tortilla chips would have made this appetizer better. My first cocktail was the Limoncello Martini (vodka, fresh Limoncello, lemon juice, $15). I usually love anything lemon and this was a good martini with light lemon flavor. She started with the Purple Martin Martini (vodka, raspberry puree, pineapple, $15). This was another good martini with light sweetness from the raspberry and pineapple, not a sugar bomb. We wanted a little more food, so we ordered the Caprese flatbread ($18). It was a good size, and the dough was great. It had a good amount of cheese and tomatoes, and I really liked the balsamic drizzle on top. However, it did not come with the basil that was listed on the menu. Next, I tried the Peperoncino Martini (vodka, Italian Peperoncino brine, black pepper, extra virgin olive oil, $15). I loved this, one of the more unique martinis I've had. She liked her sip so much, she ordered her own for number three. Her second cocktail was the Carmel Apple Martini (carmel apple vodka, Licor 43, lemon, star anise, caramel cube garnish, $15). Most of the time, you would expect a caramel apple martini to be a sugar bomb, but not this one. The flavors were great with a light sweetness. And who doesn't like a caramel square treat? For my last one, I had the Cinnamon Sleigh (bourbon, cinnamon spice, maple, orange twist, $15). This was a good sipping finisher with light cinnamon notes and those great orange aromatics. KJ was our server, and she was very sweet and friendly. We came early in the evening and it was a little slow, so we chatting with her quite a bit. I'd take a half point off for the two food items not coming with the listed items, but rounded up to five stars overall. The bill had a 3% charge added for using a credit card. They have a music trivia night on Thursdays which would be fun to try. We enjoyed our first visit here, and will definitely return again.

    I think this is on everyone's speakeasy list!…read more Make sure you make a reservation It is very packed. They offer bar seating and booth / table Follow the wall from Randy's donuts and Look for a wall of Japanese sake/beer barrels and head towards the restaurant - the rolling boil. There will be a check in host and stand there and wait (it will be located up against the wall with a big secret door right next to the hostess station) It's very New York inside. When I first came in Spring with the amazing, Karen, the menu and everything was great Now, I took my friend who was in town from Nashville and it was a brand new theme. It's the great Gatsby. Even our waitress, Jasmine was dressed for the occasion. I would say this place is known for Absinthe. They have cocktails featuring it or you can get one of the huge apparatus (huge and glowing green) which, if you are into it? I highly recommend. Just one of the huge apparatus makes one regular drink. Or, what Karen and I did, was split it and make it into a shot for the both of us. The waitress comes out and shows you how it works and goes over everything. Karen, who I came with, was a pro and knew her way around it. She showed me the ropes lol. Honestly, if you are here? When in Rome. Go all out and try it, since it's where they shine here. They took off a few menu items and added some themed drinks. ( a couple new champagne themed drinks) They have big entree items but I suggest small bites and sharing and mostly coming for the drinks. There's no bathroom inside, so you do have to leave the bar and go to the closest one (over behind Randy's donuts) and then enter the speakeasy again Both times coming here I've never had an issue. It's a small, packed place. And yet they still have the cocktails flowing and the food coming out in a good time. So the food and drinks are good Atmosphere is lovely. Service is good. Especially for it usually being very busy in here This place is located inside the Anaheim packing district. So I suggest hitting up a couple other spots before or afterwards for some more food or drinks P.S. it is very dark In here. They never cared if we used our light to look at the menu. However, they do not want flash photography They also do not strictly enforce a dress code (my friend from Nashville asked) however, they suggest dressing business casual and not too underdressed

I really liked the clarified strawberry drink, similar to strawberry and cream. I ordered a drink after that unfortunately forgot the name (photo attached with a tall glass) but there was no special cocktail craft taste to it. Just hard liquor taste and undrinkable :( the bartender kindly offered another drink. Unfortunately none of the food was the least bit good. Steak and fries was ordered medium rare and cooked to medium well with what seemed like no seasoning was on there at all. Crab cake was just ok and the slaw beneath it was drenched in a vinaigrette that was just sour and unpleasant. And the Mac and cheese, as we were very hopeful and looking forward to, was probably the blandest Mac and cheese we ever had. We asked the lady bartender for salt and she handed us, no exaggeration (and you guys will probably think I am) a salt shaker with 10 grains of salt in it and said "looks like there's a lil something you could still get out of there" My jaw dropped. But yeah. The shredded meat on top of the Mac and cheese was cooked beyond the point of edible. That one was unfortunately sent back bc we just couldn't eat it. We were bummed over all mostly about the food.

The only thing I was not a super fan of was their pita bread and how it came.

    Zero stars if I could!…read more The service was terrible from the moment we sat down, and all of this happened within the FIRST HOUR. Water wasn't even consistently poured for everyone at the table. Drink orders were skipped even while orders were being taken from people sitting right next to each other. The first time, we literally had to go ask our server about a drink that had already been ordered. Then later, someone ordered the exact same drink as another person at our table--one came out and the other was completely forgotten. How many times does a table need to be overlooked before it's no longer considered a simple mistake? We shouldn't have to keep tracking down staff, asking where our drinks are, or reminding someone that our table exists. The whole experience felt careless, disorganized, and honestly just rude. So over this place. If basic service is this difficult within the first hour of being there, that says enough.

The service was inattentive, the atmosphere felt unprofessional, and the overall experience left a very bad impression. Unfortunately, I won't be coming back.
