I just had my birthday bash at the All Star. We all had a great time. The facilities were clean, well maintained and the staff was SUPER nice. It wasn't too noisy or loud. Was easy to enjoy!!!!

Cool place to hang out and have a good time and be melow (different from the usual club scene)....Everything is very reasonably priced and staff are friendly. It looks like they are still working on this venue and giving it upgrades slowly!

We went down witha bunch of friends, watched footbal game, drank and bowled. It was good times I would definitly recomend it, it ain't too fancy but it sure is fun!!

• Pros: Cheap Prices, Friendly Staff, good amosphere

The New All Star Lane is faaaantastic!

by david_wla at Citysearch

The place has gone under a complete remodel. The Lanes are upgraded along with automatic scoring. The bar has been remodeled as well. The drinks are cheap (compare to rest of LA!) and atmosphere is great. I highly recomd it.

• Pros: Inexpensive, Plenty of Parking

Great old-school bowling alley

by fiestascramble at Citysearch

Although they recently refurbished the lanes and added automated scoring monitors (you used to have to score your own card), All-Star Lanes is still full of old-school character. It's a great spot for birthday parties; after bowling a couple of games, you can head into the lounge and sing some karaoke. Per-game and shoe-rental prices are REALLY low compared to most LA alleys. And, if you're hungry, you can grab a bite at the Chinese/pizza/hot dog place attached--they'll even deliver to your lane. And, pinball!!

Good time, cheap beer

by jdawg at Citysearch

Went to All-Star on Friday night and had a blast. You won't find a cheaper place to bowl or cheaper beers in Los Angeles. Yes, you must score the game yourself, but it is worth it. My friends and I plan on going back again soon. If you are in the mood for some fun and don't mind the dive atmosphere, check it out. "Hipsters" need not apply.

• Pros: Cheap, Dive, Fun

Come for the bowling, stay for the food!

I've been a regular at All Star Lanes for almost two years now. It's hard to find some "old fashioned" bowling anymore. It's all about automatic scoring and artificial lanes now, but if you want a blast from the past, to score your own sheet, and to bowl on real wood lanes, you've found your alley!

The recent addition of XM music is sometimes a gift, sometimes a curse, but it helps add some more ambience to the place. A bar and chinese restaurant (The Red Dragon) are adjacent, and both offer good deals. For $10, you can bowl an hour, and can win a free half-hour if you get a strike when the loaders give you a red pin. It's a good deal, and a great place!

• Pros: Atmosphere, Price, Rarely any wait
• Cons: "Iffy" equipment, No air conditioning, Bad karaoke

How Fun.

by dawnmariesmith at Citysearch

My friends and I met here for happy hour bowling one night. We had a blast. The cocktail waitress was attentive and kept the drinks flowing. It seems to be a really popular place since it was totally packed all night.
