They make you a drink based on your preference. There is no menu. I feel like the only thing that they are missing pee, pee, pee, pee, pee, pee, pee is a better interior decor. There's a lot of potential to make the interior more unique. Given the name is library bar.

This hidden gem tucked inside the Hollywood Roosevelt is an absolute must-visit if you're staying…read moreat the hotel--or even if you're just in the neighborhood looking for a truly unique cocktail experience. The Library Bar is small, intimate, and effortlessly cool, with dim lighting, vintage vibes, and an atmosphere that feels both upscale and unpretentious. Open Thursday through Sunday evenings, it's the kind of place you want to linger. 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.

The DJ on the main floor, however, didn't seem to be mixing much and mostly replayed the same songs after about 30 minutes. The service was spectacular. We ordered three bottles, which came with a pitcher of juice and four hookahs. You could choose to add mint flavor to the hookah or leave it out, though it still had a slight hint of mint even without it. Everyone also ordered individual drinks, which were about $25 each, and the wine bottle was $85. Anything we needed was brought to us quickly. We didn't get the private belly dancers, I guess they didn't come to work. Overall, it was a great experience and I would definitely come back again for a special event.

HAHAHAHAHAH Waitress…read morethought I was an idiot! We ordered 1 hookah and 2 drinks. The machine showed $180. I am like that is kinda high. I asked her if that included gratuity. She said no, I asked again are you sure she says NO. I couldn't check the machine because before she handed to me she went all the way to the tip scree that said additional tip. I was like this SHADY af. I asked for a receipt and she said printer broken. I AM NOT MAKING THIS UP. So I grabbed the machine back and put my number in to get the receipt texted to me. Low and behold 22% tip and she charged us for water when I asked for tap water. I go back to her and show her the receipt and she is like oh I don't know what that is. I have never seen that before. Pleassseeeeee What a scam artist, she probably has done that to everyone there but everyone there is on a date and no one wants to be embarassed. Well IDGAF. She offered to give cash back and not tell her boss. Honestly he probably knows. Never going back. Ive been here 8 times. EVERYONE CHECK YOUR RECEIPTS!!!

The vibe is perfect, the bartender is friendly, helpful and very knowledgeable about the drink menu. There is no wine here but the cocktails are excellent, full of flavor, and so is the whiskey.

Ordered the espresso martini and vibed out. I do believe they should carry more music selections with some updates to more legendary artists considering it is a vinyl bar.

We had a girls night here & the bouncers were actually super friendly & sweet! There was one that was like 7 ft tall he was so kind & helpful, I was so shocked seeing someone that tall so we had a few laughs lol Another bouncer offered us some free drink tickets which was great!! But I will say there drinks are not good, idk maybe we didn't order the right drinks... we started off with a cucumber drink, the bartender said he could make it at my friends request & it was realllllly awful... I hated that we had to pay $20+ for that lol so next drink we decided to skip over that bartender & try a new one & got a different drink & it was just okay, nothing special, also wasn't the greatest. So they just need to start making better drinks here & this place would be perfect for a night out. The dj started slow but by our 2nd drink the music was flowing & started turning into great remixes!

For a more sophisticated evening, combining a good looking high end crowd with top notch service (thanks Ethan!!!) this is your spot. As a Hollywood Hills native, born and raised right off Mulholland, I can attest this is one of the best spots for high end locals in the last decade. If you want small children being treated as such in a low rent district environment akin to a factory, many Hollywood options. If you want a classy experiencez and intend to spend and behave accordingly, this your spot. Note to venue: please don't change anything!!!!

It is a noticeable reason to come dine here regularly. Came in for dinner many times over the past few months, was consistently excellent. Even their chicken is great....this means it's safe to put Firefly on rotation for a weekday night and more casual dinner, not just dolled up weekend for experience. FYI, it is really hard to make a fancy chicken memorable. !!!Particular shout out to their sommelier who does a fantastic job on all fronts!!! Firefly has always been pretty good, never a bad experience over nearly 2 decades, but someone in mgmt just got a burst of wind and took everything there up a notch to opening year type good again (or better!). As a local who laments the decline of our neighborhood as we lose all the unique spots with character to city economics, thank you for still caring and being a reason to keep loving Studio City.
