by Shawn S. on RESPECT! Who doesn't love a little r-e-s-p-e-c-t! Thursday's at the Dragonfly Bar there is Respect Drum and Bass bringing the fresh bass beats with today Scooba, B2B, Whizzard, Austin Speed and C.A.B.L.E from Brazil turning the tables! I love the way the bass just pulses through my cells making my whole body experience the show as a kind of religious event especially with the lighting going crazy with colorful light displays swirling around! The building is split into two rooms and with both rooms right next to each other, you still cant even hear the other room once you've stepped into the new room. It was Whizzard's birthday here on 06/17/2010, we had just got here after the Lakers won a repeat championship! Everyone had LA pride as we partied at the Dragonfly! We ordered Jack and Coke and me oh my the drinks were stiff, we had already been drinking at the Saddle Ranch @ Universal City Walk watching the Lakers beat the Boston Celtics so we were pretty toasty! The place had a kind of dark and rustic feeling and the multitude of seating areas were very comfotable and I really liked the framed woodworking for the booths. If you like Drum and Bass, here is definitely a good spot to go to!
by Mathew Katin on After three days of Thanksgiving gluttony, I found myself back at home with my sister, her boyfriend, my fiance, and a bunch of leftovers in the fridge. Despite the deliciousness of said leftovers, as dinner time approached, we were all a little wary of eating roast beef and/or turkey AGAIN. So, we decided to go out and try Top Flr. We were led upstairs to the "Top Flr" and sis and I decided to start with an insanely reasonable $6/glass cava. The boys ordered beers--well, they tried to, but sadly the bar was out of their first two choices. Disappointing, as they had less than a dozen (if I remember correctly) on the menu. For appetizers, we chose the white bean hummus and the lamb skewers. The former was a large portion with good grilled pita and some grilled, marinated artichokes, and it was tasty, though a bit undersalted. The latter consisted of three skewers of tender lamb with an INSANELY good yogurt sauce and some very flavorful couscous. In both cases, I think the prices were very reasonable, given the ingredients and the amount of food. We tried both of the salads on the menu, and we immediately noticed differences between the menu descriptions and the ingredients on the plates; there were blackberries instead of figs, and there were raw pears instead of peaches. The salads were fresh and delicious--the honey lavender dressing with the chevre was a delightfully sweet treat, and the arugula had a great bite to it. However, if you're going to change key elements based on seasonal availability, you should probably spend the time and money to update your menus. For "entrees," we ordered some main-esque dishes and a few sides that piqued our collective interests. The duck confit pizza was well-received by the whole table, but I preferred the one with chorizo. Both had ample toppings and tasty flatbread crusts. We tried a pasta with sauteed shrimp, preserved lemon, chevre ravioli, and fennel, and while I found it to be WAY too heavy on the fennel, the rest of the table loved it and really enjoyed the way the lemon brought out the flavors of the shrimp and the cheese. Sides of purple potato hash and Mac 'n cheese were quite good, though I wish the potatoes in the hash had been more...well...hash-like (they were cubed instead of shredded, so they weren't all crispy). Sadly, desserts were not as successful as the rest of the meal. My filo-wrapped chocolate dumplings were drowning in an overpowering orange brandy sauce, and my sister's s'more featured non-melted chocolate and a marshmallow so burned that it was nearly impossible to chew (we did complain about that dish, so it was taken off our bill). The winner of the bunch was a moist pumpkin ginger pound cake served with maple ice cream. Coffee was good, and after-dinner drinks were reasonably priced. Service was friendly and knowledgeable, though a bit slow at times. After all of the food and drinks, and with a nice tip, the total worked out to be about $100-$110 per couple. You could definitely eat well for less, as we probably ordered more food than we should have. Given the enjoyable experience and how close it is to my place, I will definitely return to Top Flr.
by Peench P. on Showed up here Saturday night, couple of friends were going to be there, this English guy was hungry and I wanted drinks so there. I had some chips and salsa, which were below average especially the salsa, meh, not very tasty. The English guy had fish and chips which I heard weren't bad. The place has a fair selection of tap beers, the music was pretty much 80's with a dash of 90's and some random ABBA song, not gonna lie, I knew every freakin' song, artist and release year- maybe kidding. Most patrons seemed to enjoy the music, so if you're into this mix of music, you're going to like it for sure. A little birdie told me this place has some great dance nights, I will check it out eventually. Useless fact: Going to the bathroom was a bit of a challenge for me since I had to walk through the packed dance floor and I was afraid I was going to get smashed by the crowd, lucky me, a Mexican counterpart led me into it making sure I got in safe. Once inside the bathroom she spilled some beer on the floor and then asked me "what would you give me if I wipe it off with a kotex?!?" I did enjoy watching the soccer highlights from the premier league, Italian league and Spanish league (!!!!) and to be honest I'd probably be back there to watch more. The bartenders were fairly attentive, though at one point it felt like an eternity to get my beers when this guy next to me asked me if my watch was digital and then told me it was awfully http://huge.wtf.best pick up line ever, pendejo. 3 stars for now for future soccer watching.
