The Scene – It's a little hard to find, so it must be good. With no flashing neon sign and a desolate location hidden below a dark, inconspicuous parking area, it seems more like a speakeasy during Prohibition than a Santa Monica hot spot. Red velvet trimmings, black leather booths, candle-lit illumination and a framed shot of Old Blue Eyes as the bar's centerpiece make you feel like you might be in a Tarantino flick. It has the same cool, underground ambience of its Hollywood namesake, but offers a little more, with private booths and a larger dance floor to get the funk out. The…

Fun Old School

by RBgirl

The Room is so much fun. Great Old School and current hip-hop, and reggae music. I have been a few times, nice crowd, great music, and lots of room for dancing. Best for couples, or groups of friends. Not a pick up joint.

Things to know before you go:

There is a dress code.

No food is served.

Drinks are strong.

Hard to find by first timers corner of 14th St. & SM Blvd.

Parking is a nightmare if you get there late, use the valet.

  • Pros: Lot's of fun, great place to hang out with friends, crowd ranges from 20ish to 40ish.
  • Cons: No food

I'm glad I threw my party there!

by damngina

My friend recommended that I throw my sister's 21st party there for her. I went to check it out on a wednesday night but it was slow. Jen the bartender (who got me crunk there) said it was busier on the weekends. I liked the decor. Called victoria and reserved one of the "boom boom" rooms (seats like 25). We all had a great time. The dj mixed all kinds of different stuff, the drinks were stiff and the staff was friendly (whattup Chris!).

  • Pros: Good party vibe, good street parking
  • Cons: valet

It's better to come during the week,

by alexis505

My girls and I usually come after work during the week to relax and unwind, last weekend we finally decided to come out on saturday, we had a great time but i think I like it better when it's not so packed (I guess weekends are crazy over there). The room on wednesdays and thursdays is much more like a bar which is chill and loungy, it's a nice place to just unwind with friends or to bring a date for an after dinner drink and conversation. I think I'll stick to my weekday chillin at the room and let all the hardcore partying for the rest in the weekends.

  • Pros: A great lounge during the week
  • Cons: Weekends are packed
