Review of The Conga Room at LA Live

I was completely against LA Live when it went in. I thought it would be tacky, commercial, expensive, and bland. And you know what? I was right. But I end up going there all the time anyway. It's lively, downtown adjacent, with handy movie theatres (Regal), beer (Yard House), copious food venues, and reasonably easy parking and transit access. It's not really a destination for me, but it's a great place to grab a beer, or a burger, or launch off to the rest of Downtown. It's brought a lot of life to central LA, and that's great.
