This review is restrictly for the nightclub. Let me start off by saying, do not come here, if you do not know someone or purchase bottle service! I feel so bad for the people just standing in line. They are literally wasting their time. If you're not on a guestlist, what makes you think they are going to let you in? The venue-Absolutely beautiful! The elavator has mirrors inside and once you get out of the elavator you see the word Hollywood on the wall.The inside of the club in small. The walls are red, the couches are white. They have one bar inside and another one outside. The girl bartenders inside the bar are friendly. I've never had a problem with them. The bathrooms are nice too. outside- Cabanas, pool and one bar. You can actually sit down in the tables without purchasing bottle services. I don't think you can sit in the cabanas without bottle service though. The bartenders outside are rude. It was 1:45am and I wanted WATER, and they were unwilling to give it to me. wtf? "This bar is closed, you have to go to the other one. "I understand the California law, when it comes to alcohol, but they couldn't give me water? Of course the bartenders inside were friendly and gave me water. Crowd- 70% good looking people, then of course you have the not so good looking people who got in because they purchased bottle service. I think this is a great place for guys to pick up at, a lot of eye candy. However, I can't say the same for women. It's a blend of guys,some are really old, some are okay looking, some are very cocky and some are taken. Music-first two times I came here, I LOVED THE MUSIC. It was exactly like the Drais Vip room in Vegas, nothing but hip hop. It is extremely hard to find a club that plays Hip Hop music, without the ghetto crowd. Drais was a dream come true, great hip hop music plus classy people. However, this Friday, May 14, there was a new dj. I'm sorry but I did not like it. Kings of Leon, Elvis Crespo Suavemente, Pitbull, are you serious? He played top 40s, house and hip hop. Yes, he did play hip hop and yes, throughout the night, there were times where i was feeling it!!! Just as the music was getting good, he switched the music ! Very annoying! Price- $20 for women, idk for men, drinks 14+, 10 dollar parking across the street Now that I've experienced this club, I'm done. I won't be going there for a loooong time. I don't care about it anymore. I hate having to call someone and having to rely on them to get in. I still perfer Drais in Vegas. Eventhough, they don't let everyone in Drais at Vegas, at least it's still easier to talk your way in there. They're friendly at the one in Vegas too. If you can network with someone there, then go experience it! If you don't know anyone, don't waste your time.

Went here for a Halloween/ birthday party, friends knew the owner so we pretty much took over half the place. Music was awsome, thanks Chard! Margaritas were kicking, thanks bartender! I was wasted and happy and I don't remember the rest

This is my spot. The food is inexpensive, and good (although to be fair I have little Ethiopian food experience to compare it to). The owners are very, very nice people who employ some of the best bartenders in the city. The pool table has hosted many a' drunken games with friends on rainy Thursday nights.....good times.
