    Nice spot to watch sports. Food is ok, nice outdoor space, but the big screen inside is great.

    Happy hour menu

    Great happy hour for food & drinks. Also appreciate all the options for non-alcoholic beer & mocktails

    TVs behind the bar
    Barndi K.

    Surprisingly large menu and large outside patio (with no TV) for a sports bar. Good for mixed company of people who are and are not interested in watching a game. BIG primary TV centered around one area w several smaller ones by it and a row of TVs across the back of the long bar offers plenty of TV watching. Happy hour specials (daily?) and everything from pizza to tacos to salads offer lots of options for all dietary needs. Would even recommend even if you aren't going to watch a game bc of the outdoor patio. Parking can be limited and tricky on the steep incline.

    Vegan Avocado Tacos
    Victoria M.

    LA really lucked out with Untamed Spirits. This place is *exactly* what the people envision when all chant in unison that ~we want a Women's Sports Bar~ There's ample indoor/outdoor seating including spaces to lounge, women's sports playing on every screen (THANK YOU), and tons of diverse food options. I personally went with the vegan avocado tacos, which were absolutely delish, and the portion size was perfect. They had multiple white claw flavors to choose from, which was a nice surprise! Service was also surprisingly fast and so so friendly! I cannot emphasize enough how stellar it is to have a Women's Sports Bar that is exactly what it says it is, a sports bar that sincerely and actually plays women's sports. Untamed Spirits is absolutely worth the drive from Long Beach, we'll absolutely be back for ACFC away games.

    Fried chicken tacos + aguachiles
    Abby R.

    I drive from Orange County for Untamed Spirits like it's a long-distance relationship but honestly, so worth it. It's a women's sports bar, which gives it such a fun atmosphere to be in and the fried chicken taco is unreal. The aguachiles? Spicy little flavor bombs that live rent-free in my head. What really makes this place stand out is the customer service. You can tell the owners put so much love and hard work into this spot. They're always around making sure everyone's taken care of and having a good time. It's the kind of place you walk into once and already know you'll be back. Big thanks to the entire team for creating a place that's easy to love and hard to leave!

    So many taco options! Tried brisket, barbacoa and shrimp!

    Perfect place to watch sports - especially women sports! Went in for Taco Tuesday and had delicious tacos and a passion fruit margarita. I also couldn't resist their Angel City Pink Drink! Lots of TVs and indoor seating, along with an outdoor patio. Will definitely come back and catch more games here!

    I finally got to check out Untamed Spirits and girl, I was NOT disappointed! Parking was easy, and as soon as we walked in we were greeted with the warmest smiles. The vibe is super cute & loved the neon pink sign inside. They've got both indoor and outdoor seating, but we went with indoors. As big Angel City & Sparks fans, we kicked things off with the Spark 75 and the Angel City Pink Punch & both were a solid 10/10. Later I switched to a michelada, and the server even checked to make sure it was exactly how I liked it, which I genuinely appreciated! Long story short: Come here. It's great. The energy, the service, the drinks & everything exceeded expectations. And best part? EVERYONE IS WATCHING WOMEN'S SPORTS!!

    Came here for the grand opening and tried their nachos and passion fruit margarita. Both so good and so fresh! The energy and the vibe was very welcoming, along with the service and staff. We sat outside which was nice for a summer day in LA. Parking was fairly easy, there was plenty of street parking on the side of the restaurant. I would definitely come back and highly recommend to others looking for a place to hang out, with good drinks, yummy food and a fun atmosphere.

    Untamed Spirits is my new favorite spot in town! Having taken over the old Trophy Wife location in May and hard launching in June, I have no complaints (well, except for parking but that's LA). We've been here a few times over the course of the launch and watched the development of the space and menu. Management is very warm and open to feedback. Service is excellent! Tara was our server for brunch 2x and she is a rockstar. At the grand opening, she was getting plates out so quickly despite the rush. The vibe varies on where you're sitting and whether or not a big game is on. Perfect place to catch soccer, basketball, or men's baseball this summer. Patio is calmer with tons of seating and very dog and family friendly. At the grand opening, we ordered the brisket omelet, chicken sando (comes with an egg- nice touch), and my new favorite caesar salad which was plated beautifully. To drink, we had a lychee martini, seasonal Pride 75, and pitcher of cider. Looking forward to working our way through the menu!

    What an amazing vibe!! Came here to watch the Dodgers game because playoffs but this is the place to watch women's sports. One of the only places I'd say where you can cheer on women crushing it and feel a community of support with all the sounds and action of that sport front and center. Not taking a quiet second place to a male event that's playing at high volume. Good vibes, good food, and tasty cocktails are exactly what we got. The chicken tacos and the smash burger. I had the spicy passion fruit marg which of like a little tartness you will love. Its passion fruit is front and center and not too sweet, perfection in my opinion. Their bucket of fries is a hit, the guac and chips are well-balanced, the happy burger is delicious, and the fried chicken tacos are a nice surprise! Everything we tried was yummy. Each table has its own QR code that pulls up the menu to order directly so service is as smooth as possible even on busy days. Looking forward to watching more women's sports with fellow fans!!!

    A really nice sports bar with great food! Lots of TVs and a nice indoor bar area plus a large outdoor patio. Very dog friendly too. I've been to a few of the women's sports bars out there and this is so far my favorite! We went to watch the Indiana Fever game and they had on several other WNBA games plus the Dodgers game. I got the breakfast quesadilla which was crispy and delicious. My girlfriend got the asada hash which was also really good. A great mix of atmosphere, sports, and delicious food. Will be back!

Venue was cute and casual altogether. Some folks dressed up a bit some casual. So wear what you want. Where I sat (high top near with kitchen view) was a bit warm but nothing too crazy. I looove cool air though lol. I ordered a smoky seed mezcal cocktail that had hints of coconut and mint, wouldn't order again but I didn't read well lol I'm not a fan of coconut drinks. I just saw mezcal and picked it. I finished it though. I started off with the cornbread and 10/10! The butter on the side had a ever so slight hint of spice that I loved! The blueberry compote on the side was good too but made it taste more dessert-like IMO. Then I had the tomato and stone fruit salad and i think that was my top favorite thing all night! The flavors had umami, spice, sweet, acid, texture....I highly recommend I'm not vegan but I got the sticky maitake mushroom. Verrrry flavorful with all components combined! Not too salty like i saw some reviews mention. I enjoyed it better as a build your own taco with the naan than I did the lettuce cup. But I love bread! Lol. Price was on the high side for this dish though for what you get. Most of the sides were very pricey as well (Ordered half portions to-go). Finished off with the mango sticky rice dessert! I know this is crazy but I almost wish the portion size was a bit smaller. It was SO good! Maybe too big for one person given it has rice, but I finished it LOL.

    I want to update my review about the location of Zinc that I wrote over a decade ago. Since my…read moreinitial review, I've continued to come to this restaurant. It remains a unique addition to the neighborhood, as well as a good place to grab some interesting dishes. Since the opening of this particular business, the Zinc chain has opened in a few other locations. Those locations are much newer in not only their establishment but their design. This is not to say that this is still not an interesting, well-designed business, but, with time, it has become a little bit rundown. I hate to say it, but that is the truth. This location could really use an update and perhaps a deep cleaning. I was, in fact, kind of surprised at the condition of this business, for example, on the way towards their restrooms. From my opinion, it needs an clean up and an update. Also, the litter that surrounded some of the outdoor tables where I was sitting at my most recent visit was very surprising. This is just something to keep in mind if you're coming here for your first visit. In terms of what they offer for food, though it has evolved a bit over the years, they still have a great, heath-based menu, with some very interesting choices. For all of you vegetarians and vegans out there, you will, for sure, be able to find some tasty food to eat. Once upon a time, this restaurant was impacted with tons and tons of people. It was constantly full with people either going to the bakery and/or sitting down for table service. Shortly past their opening each day, there would be a line of people waiting for service. This seems to have changed, however. Meaning, if you're looking for an interesting place to eat, with some good dishes, at the far Southeast side of DTLA, near the lofts district, and you want a place without a long wait to get a table and/or your food, this may still be your place to go.

    This was, without a doubt, the worst experience I've ever had at Zinc. I've been coming here on and…read moreoff for the past four years and have never experienced customer service this bad. We started with coffee. My boyfriend ordered a mocha, and I ordered a salted caramel latte. His drink was fine, but mine had absolutely no flavoring. As a former barista, I could immediately tell it was just a plain iced latte. I politely asked the waitress if they had forgotten the syrup, and she insisted, "There is syrup in it, but I can ask them to add more." I knew there wasn't any syrup, but I didn't want to argue, so I said, "Sure, please add more." A few minutes later, the manager came over and told me they actually didn't have salted caramel. So I asked if I could just get a regular caramel latte instead. She then told me they couldn't make that either because they were out of caramel sauce, the very reason they couldn't make the salted caramel in the first place. So why hand me a plain iced latte and tell me it had syrup when you knew you didn't even have the ingredients? Why not simply come back and let me know you were out and ask if I'd like something else? Instead, I was given a regular latte at the price of a flavored one (plus they later charged me for the syrup they never even added). For context, I had originally ordered a dirty chai, which they also couldn't make. So that's two drinks they didn't have, yet no one thought to communicate that before serving me something completely different. When I told the manager I'd look back at the menu for another option, she responded, "Okay... are you going to tell the waitress what drink you want?" I just looked at her, confused, and said, "Well... yeah?" How else was I supposed to order a replacement? The interaction came across as unnecessarily rude. Then it was time to order food. My boyfriend ordered the truffle burger, and I ordered the French toast. The waitress came back a few minutes later and said they couldn't make the French toast. No problem, I told her I'd also have the truffle burger. She acknowledged it, wrote it down, asked how I wanted it cooked, and what side I wanted. I ordered it medium-well with fries. So both burger orders were sent in at the same time. About 20 minutes later, the food arrived, but only my boyfriend's burger and an extra side of fries that we never ordered. At that point, we didn't even bother saying anything about the fries because we were trying to avoid making things more difficult. We waited another 20 minutes (even though it was so slow). My boyfriend finished eating, and my burger still hadn't come out. Finally, we asked for the check and requested that my burger be removed since it never arrived. That's when the waitress told us I had never ordered a second burger. I was honestly speechless. I reminded her that she had taken my order after telling me they couldn't make the French toast. She had written it down, asked how I wanted it cooked, and asked what side I wanted. Her response was that she thought I meant only my boyfriend's burger. That explanation made no sense because my boyfriend's order had already been taken before she took mine. It honestly felt like we were being gaslit over something as simple as ordering a burger. To make matters worse, after we paid and were finally leaving, I looked at the receipt and realized I had been charged for the salted caramel latte that I never actually received. We had to go back yet again. Thankfully, a different employee, not the waitress or the manager helped us. They were friendly, understanding, and quickly corrected the charge. I'm not sure if management has changed, but this entire experience was unnecessarily frustrating from beginning to end. Everything that could have gone wrong did. Honestly, I should've taken the "B" health grade posted on the window as a warning. We ended up walking over to Blue Bottle next door for coffee instead, and I'd absolutely recommend going there if you're looking for a place that actually values customer service. After four years of coming to Zinc, this experience has me seriously questioning whether I'll ever be back.

It's conveniently located to the LA Convention Center, Crytpo.com arena, and LA Live which makes it a must visit before or after an event! I am obsessed with their happy hour, which offers healthy items at discounted prices with generous portions! I have been here so many times throughout the years but most recently found myself here during a busy World Cup match! Regardless, the service and quality of food was not sacrificed! I was greeted as soon as I got there and the bartenders were overwhelmed but still friendly and helpful. I was so tempted to get a margarita, since theirs are amazing, but decided to keep it dry and just get their vegan nachos. I was able to score a table outside on their lovely patio, which felt secluded enough from the main street. My food was brought out quicker than I thought and I was delighted, as I was famished! The vegan nachos here are fantastic and the happy price is only $10, which is a steal for what you get! They are costed in the most magical concoction of a bean puree, cashew cheese sauce, and guacamole which all have the most creamy, luscious and savory flavors. It's so hearty and well seasoned and not only filling, but you feel great after. Parking is pretty easy, as there are usually ample meters available nearby. I cannot wait to return again soon the next time I'm in Downtown LA! I am hoping to try more of their vegan options and next time I will for sure get a drink to go along with their delicious food!

The mussels were flavorful, the calamari was crispy and cooked well, and the fries were delicious. Those dishes really saved the experience . Overall, I'd come back for the food, but I'd probably steer clear from cocktails and order a real drink. Prank is a convenient place for dtla residents in surrounding apartments to come get some quick bites and drinks and catch a live game

    Distrito Catorce is a gem in Boyle Heights that delivers on all fronts. The food was outstanding!…read moreFresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every dish felt thoughtfully prepared, with authentic flavors and quality ingredients that stood out from the first bite to the last. The ambiance was welcoming and the art was tasteful. What truly elevated the experience was the service. The staff were attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable, making us feel genuinely welcomed throughout the meal. They were quick to offer recommendations and ensured everything was perfect without being intrusive. We ordered the tostaditas de atún agua chile negro, beet salad, carne asada taco and Al pastor taco and watched the World Cup game. Distrito Catorce combines exceptional food, a great atmosphere, and top-notch service. It's the kind of place that leaves you planning your next visit before you've even finished your meal. Definitely plan on coming back to watch more World Cup games.

    I knew heading into Distrito Catorce that I wanted to see three things . The closing art exhibit,…read morehear the live band, and finally try Chef Jonathan's menu. It was basically a grand slam. To be honest, I was already biased because his Smorgasburg pop-ups were consistently good. But Distrito Catorce is different , it's like art. My favorite dish was the tacos de papa with salsa macha. The crunch of the potato taco riding into the salsa macha and crema felt like home, but with some extra pop. His salsa game is on point. The scallion salsa on the ribeye taco was also gas. Lastly, I really dug the tostadita de atún. It hit perfectly on these hot summer days. Low-key, I still want to try the El Rey de Noche. Tacos de beef trompo are starting to hit LA, and dude was ahead of the curve making picanha-brisket tacos de trompo. Service is smooth too. The servers are helpful, and solid at the bar. Overall, it's a cool spot with a menu that feels unique to LA.

    We were going to the Obscure Bar in the Arts District for the 6 cocktail we had no clue what at 8pm…read moreand while I had walked past this beautiful restaurant a few times roaming around the DTLA arts district, I had never actually eaten at Manuela's. This restaurant is set in the Hauser and Wirth art Gallery complex and since we got there early we toured the front gallery with an incredible assist from a docent named Michael who pointed out the most incredible pieces and steered us to the gallery at the back of the complex behind Manuela's. Both galleries are worth exploring. However, back to Manuela's. Our very friendly server sat us on the large wraparound patio and after my explaining my celiac issues and getting some guidance on their incredible menu, we shared the following after my friend ordered a delicious Sangria while knowing as a lightweight and cheap date I would be having 6 cocktails later, I ordered the Ta Ta Tatiana- Watermelon, ginger, honey, lemon, mint, bitters: Cast iron cornbread, cultured butter, wildflower honey Kusshi oysters, Nantes carrot mignonette Arugula, emerald beauty plum, goat cheese, spiced pecans, aged balsamic Hokkaido scallops, brown butter-bacon vinaigrette, mustard greens The oysters came out first and had a delightful and unusual carrot mignonette. Small and not like Louisiana Gulf Oysters, they were fresh and delicious. Next came the Arugula salad that was tart and tasty as well as a generous portion. The cast iron cornbread was ridiculously so good I joked that I would just order two of them next time. This joint actually makes their cornbread without flour which is sadly rare for me so not only was this a gluten free treat, it was light and just melted in blissful corn flavor. Last came the scallops in a brown butter bacon vinaigrette with mustard greens that was so perfectly prepared these might be the best scallops I've ever eaten, which can sometimes be dicey. With the sauce they could have served blackened, sautéed asphalt and it would have tasted good. Well done to Manuela's all around.
