1 star for the decor and overall ambiance of the location... and the cute balconies and pool area 1 star for the stripper pole with the lampshade... Now...on to the parts that I wasn't a fan of: Let me start by saying that I was going to have fun last night, NO MATTER WHAT, as it was my bachelorette party with 11 of my fabulously beautiful girlfriends. 1. they ushered us all in, as we were on the "list"...which to me, means that you don't wait and you don't pay. We waited. AND...as we are all walking in, the guy stamps our hands. But wait...he only stamped SOME of our hands!!! When we get about 20 feet farther along, we find out that all the girls who didn't have stamped hands are going to now pay $20. If they wanted to get stamped by the guy that should have stamped them to begin with, they are told they have to go out a side door and wait in line and come through the place again. It was 20 feet back and they wouldn't let anyone go that way. Total scam. Totally ridiculous. So, basically we ended up paying about 100 bucks for 5 our our 12 girls to get in. UGH. 2. If you don't buy a bottle, you are standing. Standard L.A. fare, I know...but I still think it's ridiculous. 3. The crowd is pretty lackluster. It's a group of people that show a lot of money, gold and chest hair. Ick. One group of guys thought it was hilarious to show us the picture of their penises on their Iphone. I don't care how big it is, buddy...it's just gross. 4. The girls that are dancing on the poles seem to think that they work at the club. And...they don't. They are just the girlfriends/sisters/friends of the aforementioned chest hairs. They are also a little territorial of their pole space. One of the girls welcomed us up and then almost had a fist fight with her OWN friend because the other girl was trying her best to impress her boyfriend with her moves (which were pathetic.) and didn't want to let any girl with a veil do her thing on the pole. Don't worry...I did my thang...she saw I was serious. ;) Other than those things...it's an okay place to experience a hollywood night out, just as long as someone else is buying your drinks, you aren't trying to meet someone and you are surrounded by people you like. :) Or...I guess you could just go somewhere else that is cheaper, more down to earth, has less gold/chest hair combo...and where the guys don't try to pick you up by showing you Pictures of their junk.

A lovely and hip dinner spot. We arrived on time for our 8.30 reservation and were asked to wait at the bar. Not a problem, they had very good cocktails to take the edge off (I went with a pretty good but pretty expensive caiparinha). By 9.15 I was agitated by the wait and assumed the two fem-bot hostesses we just fucking with me, waiting to give me table to somebody, ANYBODY more connected than I (not a high bar, trust me). But NO my wait was awaited with what must just about be the best table in the very lavish dining room. Front and center, next to the fireplace, in the table with the SUPER comfortable old school leather couches. Now, as this restaurant is definitely a "let's all check each other out while we pretend we're not" sort of place, our perch was superb. Prime viewing of the comings and goings, accented by the crackle of a working fireplace. Since this is LA and you frickin have to DRIVE EVERYWHERE, I had to get a 1/2 bottle of wine; but it was a superb chateau neufdu pape for $38. Our waitress was so friendly and more than helpful and honest with helping us select. She even had business cards? That said "Server"? WTF LA bullshit is this? Anyways, it ended up being helpful, because she had us email her later and she was able to help out with some pesky guest lists that the unconnected like myself are usually left off of. For the main dinner, I had lamb chops and a gratin/potato type thing. It was excellent, and a perfect accompaniment to the wine. My date had the Snapper, which was good (but not as good as MINE :))) Dessert was skipped (which the waitress helpfully offered was worth skipping). As we were headed to BLVD3 next, a double espresso and Irish coffee were in order and much appreciated. Great time, good food, great vibe, great service.

I came here tonight for my friend's birthday dinner and this place definitely warrants coming here for a different kind of SF dining experience. This place is basically a blues night club that offers drinks, dinner or southern tapas to nibble on. Since we had dinner here, I was a bit annoyed that we still had to pay $10 a person to get in. I mean, c'mon, I was already planning on ordering drinks AND food! After I got over the fee, we sat down in a nice booth in the corner. We started off with a round of cocktails. I had the back porch pink lemonade. Really sweet and tasty. We decided to order our dinner entrees style versus tapas, so I ended up ordering the crab cakes with mixed greens and yam fries. My plate came with two average sized crispy crab cakes. (well good enough size that I ate both of them and was content) They were very meaty and delicious. My yam fries were so good. Sweet, crispy, and a bit spicy. I have to admit, I enjoyed my food alot. My two other girlfriends had the fried chicken with mash potatoes, biscuits, and cold slaw. HUGE portions! One of my gf kindly shared with me 1 of her biscuits and I thought it was just OK. I think I like the ones at KFC are even better. Service wasn't that impressive. Waitress took forever to take our orders and it was hard to get her attention at all. The band was fabulous though, so I definitely need to give them props. Great musicians! I had a fun time tonight, but B & B is a place you go once to check it out, not sure if I would come back anytime soon.
