    Doors to stage/concert venue
    Van D.

    This is a small quaint lounge with a small bar offering beers, wines and various cocktails. The bar service was spot on and the bartender friendly and knowledgeable. The decor and lounge area is inviting and intimate. There was food - small bites - available near the entrance. The concert venue is small and if you don't get there early you are smashed in. Got me a little claustrophobic but I was able to hang outside the doors and still listen but not see the musician. The doors and windows are frosted so you can't see in. I would have liked to see that opened up not only for safety, air circulation but we paid to see the artist. It would have been a better experience if it were opened up. It was an easy walk from China Town and a short uber ride back to dtla.

    Been here a few times to catch artists I enjoy, recently came for ANNIKA WELLS who is a very talented singer. If you're lucky you can find parking in the area for free if you arrive early. Smaller intimate venue for shows.

    Cute venue for smaller artists! There's a parking lot next to it so you don't have to worry about getting a spot. Staff is really nice! At the bar they do have a set of cocktails but they can make literally anything (within reason)

    Love this venue, been coming here for years.

    Love this venue! Have been coming here for years and it never disappoints. I love how intimate it is, and the bartenders are always quick to assist.

    Had a great experience at Gimme Gimme Disco night last weekend with my friends. DJ had great energy, and seemed to really enjoying what she does. The pace was packed, and everyone was having a great time.

    Would've never known this existed in little Tokyo. I am in this area often, near the Tokyo plaza. This is a slightly spacious dive bar with a concert venue. There's a third party kitchen at the entrance. Mostly Caribbean and Mexican American dishes. I tried to get the oxtail tacos but kitchen staff were missing ingredients. Opted for decent rosta fries, not spectacular. There's non alcoholic drink options and semi open bar. Restrooms are adjacent bar. Electronic pay most forms accepted. The concert hall is decent and can fit a crowd. The surprise for me is the a/c was frigid. Was not expecting it to work and keep the hall cool under pressure. I'm used to just similar venues out east limited a/c and smothering. Just wear a light jumper/jacket in case your iron is low. All and all, this venue is decent and might have room to dance depending on artist. The sound system is great and even loud performers have sound control. The most legit small venue I've experienced so far. Hope your favorite indie/alternative artist performs here sometimes.

    Small venue to see upcoming artists! PARKING: SUCKS! There's metered parking all around the area but if you're not there early, you might need to park a few blocks away. Metered parking is free after 6pm on Banning St. FYI -- don't be a dummy like me and DO NOT park behind the Moroccan Lounge Venue, that is NOT public parking. There should be a sign that warns you. VENUE : I saw Amira Elfkey (heavy goth metal, she was amazing to see). The venue is super small, it's all floor. There's merch straight when you walk in. You definitely will get claustrophobic if it's a full house. The sound was pretty good when i went.

    Ray & Paul
    Chris G.

    Had a great night here seeing the band, Ray & Paul. The sound and room set-up is great. You can watch the band in one room or get drinks in an entirely different room, where it is not super noisy. Upon entering they have a merchandise area, expect to pay a cover if you are going to see live music. Nice place to catch a band. Caution don't leave things in plain sight when you park, it looks like cars can get broken into.

    Inside lounge
    Jessie Z.

    Concert venue experience ** I love the interior of this place and the fact that as you come in there's some slight incense in the air. Inside is cozy and very wine bar vibes. The venue is intimate and small enough that if your small town artist had a concert here you'd definitely get a loot of fan service/interaction. There's seating in the lounge outside and security/workers were all very relaxed. They also provided water. I would come here to chill if there were more music to my taste( or for drinks/tapa). They do sell food that looks more fast food type! But I didn't get any. The only thing is that the projector is a bit broken so the visuals for the artists like their name etc would go on screensaver mode every few minutes.

    Ask the Community - The Moroccan Lounge

    Are teens allowed to enter the venue for music events or is it 21+ as well?

    This was an all ages event, so yes there was some younger teens there. I would imagine this is on a show by show basis.

    Are the concerts age restricted?

    it's different for each show! they're either 16+, 18+, 21+, or all ages. i'd just check the event on their website before buying if you aren't sure :)

    Hi, I would like to know if we can enjoy the show after eating food or do we have to get out when the show starts?

    Usually they check wristbands only entering the music area.

Echoing what everyone else has been saying - the service is SO slow. It was about 45 minutes before we were able to order our second drink and our water glasses were empty. They have so many runners bringing the drinks out but only a few servers and, from the looks of it, one bartender (on a Saturday night - what?!). The server was saying he was trying to find a manager to help out but they were nowhere to be found. Clearly management is fine with these service times since they're still making $$$. The drinks were delicious, and I loved that there were heaters on the patio (though they did get very hot at times). Our server was so kind and brought us a celebratory drink. I do wish there were more explanations with the beverages, especially for the Paid Vacation as most people will not realize you're supposed to bite into the buzz button for the tingly sensation. I would come back, but need some time for my wallet to recover first, haha!

From fun nights out, special occasions, whiskey tastings, exploring the speakeasy... playing some pool, enjoying libations, taking in live music, perfect outings on the patio, the occasional cigar. So many great memories and experiences created here including some awesome date days with my other half. If stopping in for the first time you'll discover S.G. on 7th and Grand Avenue with a door person usually always at the bottom of the staircase just outside of the restaurant/cocktail bar Zaya (which has been many incarnations including Bar CDMX, V and Mas Malo). Provide them with a valid ID, as anybody over 21 should have a valid form of identification on them at all times, not just for driving or access to 21+ events or establishments, but for safety. And Seven Grand cares about everyone and their safety. They value their staff as much as their customers. And it shows in every way from thoughtful space in all directions, great pool tables, a whiskey, bourbon and scotch curated cocktail menu, even some good brew/beer. Awesome hallways with cabinet lockers, the cleanest restrooms, great dim dark warm lighting, fun fixtures and true DTLA vibes that feel old timey yet also very modern. Seven Grand is open to all and all are welcome. Stellar daily happy hour 4pm to 8pm. I love a good $10 Toki Highball at 5pm, but you can't go wrong with their classic old fashion also. All the bartenders are incredible as well as personable. S Grand is open every day from 4pm until 2am. Loads of lots close by as well as the Metro station at 7th and Metro. Though the trains currently stop just a little after midnight. Rideshare is also your friend, which now includes Waymo in the area. Discover Seven Grand also in San Diego, Austin or Denver. If planning an event you inquire with Stephen via email for personal parties, events with a budget and even corporate parties. They're very accommodating with a good amount of notice. When we had my boyfriend's birthday here they reserved a table for us and set us up with everything we needed. Thinking of having my next birthday here myself both at Seven Grand and Bar Jackalope (their hidden speakeasy). Support your awesome LA Whiskey Bar!

A couple things to note: there is parking available, but it is paid (you can either text to pay or use the kiosk machines). The experience itself lasts about 40-60 minutes, which felt like the perfect amount of time. The only downside for me was that the bathroom is shared for both genders. For safety reasons, I personally wish they were separate--so ladies, I'd recommend going with someone just to be safe. You just never know. They also give you a little treat afterwards, which was a really nice touch and a sweet way to end the visit! Overall, I'd definitely come back and recommend it to others
