    Last night was my second time visiting the Glen and I had an overall good experience. I actually really like this dive bar as the vibe is super chill and they host karaoke nights. I was surprised to see that Stewart & Grab was within the same plaza and also collaborates with the bar. They have QR codes in which you can order from the restaurant but unfortunately for me though they were closed last night lol. I'm definitely looking forward to ordering food from Stewart & Grub on the next visit! When we arrived it was pretty poppin' for a Sunday night. We couldn't find a table so we settled for the bar top. I had a draft pint of Ultra and it was pretty warm, besides that no complaints regarding the drinks. All was great and after a few brews I eventually mustered up the courage to sing karaoke. I honestly had a blast lol. Unfortunately some guys started bothering me but the security was quick to handle the situation which I appreciated. Besides the inevitable misogynistic drunks, I had a hell of a good time here and would return again.

    Alex is the best bartender here. He always greets us with a good attitude and is attentive. Plus he makes the best drinks!

    Getting my fix. Why haven't I been here before?

    Excited this place is so close to my parent's house. Stopped by for a quick drink and a few games of pool. Kim, the bartender was really nice and definitely someone I would randomly come visit. Like that I can order food from next door and bring it in. Okay, I know this is a weird thing to like about this place, but when I went to the restroom, I like that they had a rail where I can put my phone or drink. As a woman, I always have to figure out where to put my phone down. I also worry about leaving my drink unattended. Thought that was brilliant and more bars should do the same. I guess they have karaoke on some nights and they were also going to be showing the UFC fight. Chill place to be in Downey. Will make it a point of stopping by next time I'm in town.

    Jamison and Ginger ale.

    Great spot, but Wednesdays are the best! I come here just for the bartender, Gadget--fun, friendly, and always brings great energy. The music is on point, the drinks are excellent, and the vibe is just right. Highly recommend stopping by, especially midweek!

    It was bound to happen ! It's been a crazy week!

There are about 6 talented bartenders who work the bar and each of them bring a unique portfolio to mixology. Let's get back to Amanda! One of my friends who was visiting from Hawaii found Amanda on social media and asked that I take her to Kuduowl to experience this unique mixology. We were greeted warmly by Amanda and she explained the concept of the bar and the drink options. All were absolutely beautifully crafted and served! Delicious! I had a drink a few years ago (Sloe Gin Ramos) and not many bartenders know how to make it, nor do they want to take the time to make it. Amanda and Chris jumped right in and made it (takes 10-15 minutes to make). It was delicious and the preparation was a show! Loved it. All bartenders, servers, and bar backs were working in unison, like an orchestra. You could tell they all enjoyed their jobs and coworkers! It made for a beautiful ambiance. The bar welcomes everyone - from old to young, from gay to straight, and a rainbow of diversity of ethnic backgrounds! This has to be my favorite bar in Southern California! Bravo Amanda & team!

My bf gets the enchiladas suizas, delicous as well but the birria tacos are my fav. Service is always great but honestly we have kept going back because of Cody, he made us a whiskey sour that has been on point each time. Not only we have had great service from but also from Luis as well my bf tocayo lol

    Everything was good EXCEPT the STEAK.. No... Seriously…read more This was probably the biggest steak disappointment I've had in a while. The place comfy, the ambience is dark and bar-like, the drink vibes look chill, I have no complaints about the service. The service was good and the staff was nice. All this makes the steak disappointment that much worse for me. We ordered Ribeye and Shrimp Salmon Lobster Mac and Cheese Asparagus Lobster Roll (Sushi) A drink from the bar The Steak.. The steak came served on a cast-iron skillet. I ordered it medium-well. It arrived a little more medium than usual, but that was not an issue. What disappointed me was the puddle the steak was sitting in. Traditionally said puddle is a mixture of butter, thyme, and whatever seasonings you used on the steak when cooking it. In this case, that puddle was flavorless. It really tasted like the steak was just sitting in a flavorless oil. The steak was very bland, very difficult to think someone could send out a piece of meat out like that, especially when you find out what it costs. It was not worth it and not worth the final tab unfortunately. Really wanted to find a steak W for Downey but I don't see myself being interested in this place again.
