One of my favorite bars. Check out the upstairs bar (sometimes closed for private events) for a more mellow scene, good music and great people watching. Moscow Mules are a must.

Nice, strong drinks that are artfully made. My favorite is the Outlaw,which comes with a jalapeno kick and the Vanderbilt Cup, if you are a sucker for pretty drinks.

Parks & Nature

Amazing panoramic views. Multiple levels from easy to steep and famous for the occasional celeb sighting ;) Best bet is to take an Uber there for about $10-12 since parking is a pain.

Getting Around

You can take the Expo line all the way to DTLA or all the way to Santa Monica pier. Plenty of parking and easy to access from the unit. I would either take an Uber to the station for about $4 or drive there.
