One of my new favorite cocktail bars in Hollywood. You have to love the atmosphere of the old-school 1920's look and feel of the place to the hanging umbrellas all around. Seating is limited so try to RSVP ahead of time or be okay with standing around near the bar. The bartenders were friendly and there was some live music on a Tuesday night. Parking-wise, valet is your best bet for about $5 (limited street parking).

Their drinks are strong and delicious (they also have a limited menu from the grilled cheese shop next door). The best drink I was the p.i.e., literally a cocktail that tasted like a sweet but not overwhelming pie. Also recommend the ginger shot if you can. Love it's presentation, even with its bitter aftertaste. Cost-wise, it's about $12+ per cocktail.
