THE BAR
This cocktail bar is confidently understated and quietly powerful, aiming to redefine the tone of nightlife in Los Angeles. In a city often dominated by nostalgia, ego, and exclusivity, we’re carving out space for something more grounded—something that reflects what LA is and is becoming. There’s no velvet rope, no performative hospitality, just sharp execution, intelligent energy, and a modern approach to timeless classics.
We keep it simple with seasonal drinks, clean flavors, and a small, intentional sushi program that complements the flow of the night and the character of the room. We don’t chase trends or replicate the past, we create experiences for those shaping LA’s present and future.
