Good Drinks

1. Mastro's Steakhouse

Neighborhood: Beverly Hills

of a baby's arm.  Instead, it was more like a slap in the face.  Basically 2 wimpy legs cut down the center giving you 4 pieces total.  The drinks are good and you do get to keep the ice melted dilution...

2. Tiki Ti Cocktail…

$80 for these 6 drinks) and get me into the 1st sip of my drink which was probably worth $80 itself.  I highly recommend this as a 1st drink on any summer drinking binge as a pretty good buzz awaits...

3. Hotel Cafe

Neighborhood: Hollywood

Bar+ Drinky-poo = 5 stars.  A stylish, dark bar with good drinks and nice enough bartenders Crowd = 3 stars. It wasn't very crowded so I can't really tell you what kind of people hang out...

4. Blue Dahlia Cafe

Neighborhood: Downtown

for happy hour or drinks on a weekend.    Waiters can be a little slow, and one time I sat in spilled water that the waitstaff never bothered to clean up, but other than that the place is good....

5. Fridays Off the 405

Neighborhood: Brentwood

and the drinks stop pouring at 8:30 sharp) dancer, but the resonating good times vibe from the guest DJ and the diverse crowd got my chucks to do a little twirl (figuratively).  You can't help but smile...
