The crowd is very diverse and people don't seem as into themselves as other places like hollywood or silverlake. The music is really good.

Although finding parking is a bit tough, this is a cool place to hang-out. For all you Dodgers fan, you can't beat the $1 beers (must show Dodgers ticket) before and after you go to the game.
