I've been here a few times and while I understand the official review's misgiving that this is a bit of a catch-all restaurant, I was not left with the same impression. A diverse menu does not preclude a good menu, and my friends and I really enjoyed a tapas-style meal that included sushi, hamburger sliders, and calamari (all of which could compete with a similarly priced niche restaurant). And the outdoor area is awesome, very comfortable cabanas, perfect for a happy hour...seriously....no, seriously. I think it is a great addition to downtown: it adds a nice middle ground lounge option to what seems to be Downtown's bipolar choices: stuffy and corporate, or silly and hipster.

Pros: Solid food, the outdoor area, the tequilla drinks

Cons: Traffic on Grandf

Editor's Review

This high-tech, sports-friendly Downtown L.A. bar sends major mixed messages by trying to be everything to everyone.  See the full editorial review.

Parking

There's no valet, but street parking isn't bad in the area, and there's also a lot directly across the street.
