    Old Fashion and La Aroma De Cuba Mi Amor
    Anton F.

    Didn't know this place existed. So glad I stopped in. As I made my way downstairs, I walk in to a full bar and a small cigar humidor in the center of the room. A small collection of good premium stogies but pricey by current market rates. The bartenders were awesome serving up excellent cocktails. Also food is available such as sandwiches, burgers and appetizers. I sat at a cozy table, with a comfy chair, enjoyed my cigar, in a relaxing amber hue atmosphere. Great place for me time.

    They desperately need better bar staff. It's such an awesome place to relax and smoke a cigar, but it would be nice to be able to enjoy a drink. I wind up just ordering bourbon neat cause the bartenders can't make drinks. I've spent a ton here and just can't bring myself to come back after the last consecutive experiences.

    Whiskey Mango made to perfection!

    This was a cute little spot, the perfect place to go if you're looking to have a good drink late night! I was in desperate need of a drink & thankfully this place was open. It's definitely the place to go if you had a long day at work, a long week of work, a long week of parenting lol, or you just simply need a drink! I haven't tried the food yet, but I can guarantee I'll be back!

    Just one night in West Hollywood and thus was it. Good food, great server (Kelsey) and great vibe. Kelsey had to serve the whole lounge alone. She was doing it right!!!

    This is my favorite place to enjoy a stogie in the West Hollywood/Hollywood area. Staff is great and friendly, lots of seating, full food menu from State Social from upstairs and decent liquor/beer selection. Have spent many nights here watching whatever is happening in sports here. Definitely recommend to visit if you like smoking cigars or shisha. Good humidor selection as well.

    LA Puro (pure cigar) love smoking cigars here with my friends. The Backroom is great all the way around. Cigars, cocktails, great staff and sports! Man cave city and women who enjoy a little smoke. Great local spot that reminds me of being in Chicago smoking sticks with friends and family.

The Library Bar is small, intimate, and effortlessly cool, with dim lighting, vintage vibes, and an atmosphere that feels both upscale and unpretentious.

There's no printed menu--instead, one of their highly skilled mixologists asks you a few thoughtful questions and creates a drink tailored exactly to your taste. It's a personalized, artful experience--and our cocktails were nothing short of spectacular. There's no food served, but that honestly wasn't an issue. This is the perfect spot for a date night or a quiet, elevated way to unwind after a day exploring Hollywood. Our only regret? We didn't make it back for a second visit. If you appreciate craftsmanship in a glass, cozy ambience, and great conversation, Library Bar delivers all of that and more. A true standout.

It's the kind of place where you can take your time exploring different pours rather than rushing through drinks. The selection is impressive, ranging from familiar labels to smaller distilleries you don't see everywhere. The bartender was clearly passionate about the craft and offered a couple of suggestions based on what I usually enjoy. I tried a whiskey I hadn't heard of before, and it turned out to be a great recommendation with a smooth, layered flavor. What I liked most was the atmosphere. It felt social without being overwhelming, making it easy to have a conversation or simply sit back and enjoy the drink.

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!

We had the option to sit outside but the sun was beaming with no shade in sight lol. I was bummed that there wasn't air conditioning.

I ordered the fish tacos and my friend ordered the barbacoa tacos. We shared those. Loved the fish tacos. The barbacoa tacos, not so much. They were really dry. I assumed they would be just as good as the quesadilla but they weren't. That's okay the churros made up for it. They arrived so warm and crispy. The service was pretty good, my one critique was that the waiter brought out dessert before we were completely finished with our entrees. I only made this point because my friend ordered the sorbet and if you recall it was humid so she had to start eating it or it would begin melting. I would probably go back on cooler days because I wasn't a huge fan of the sauna experience. Valet parking is available and the restaurant validates for a cheaper price. There is also metered parking on the streets, which is where I parked.

The karaoke booth was also a great idea but the music in the head phones was different than what was playing in the actual booth so made it confusing. Also the $9.99 price for two songs was definitely a money grab and didn't understand the booth so we lost out on one song. Overall, fun idea but could have been better.
