Not Bad

Just went to see a show the other night and it was pretty cool. The girls there were pretty hot. Definitely want to check out another show here. Nice acoustics. Parking s*cks though. You have to pay at one of...

Legendary live music spot by Renette J. at InsiderPages

One of the best places in Los Angeles to see and hear live music. This is a great place to see some very talented up and coming bands before they hit the mainstream. The sound system is good but it can get a...

Nasty

Rude bartender. You will probably only have one drink cause you will not want to go back for more. Bartender is a d*#k!

Best Live Club

I always love going to the Viper Room. The staff is friendly and professional; and the bartenders pour a mean drink. It's a small venue which is great... there is never a bad seat in the house. The downstairs...

Good Times

I've lived in LA my whole life but the first time I ever visited the Viper Room was about 3 years ago. I went with my friend to see Prince perform at The Viper Room. It was quite possibly one of the best shows...

Wah-Wha

I've been going to the Viper Room for years now. Casper the doorman knows my face, and I never wait in line.

The thrill is gone

Sorry Mr. Depp, you're still great but the Viper Room is notably not. The drain begins at the door where doorman is so blatantly rude it's almost comical... almost. I thought it was a gimmick until I saw him...

Most overrated club on sunset

From the terrible front door staff, to the way over priced drinks, to the cluttered bar area, this place is the worst club on sunset. It is a pretentious "has been" club that has lost any luster that once was....

Not worth the hype

Ok, so what. Some celeb eats it outside your door and forever after this place is a Hollywood destination. I've been twice. Once with some out-of-town friends only to pay the expensive cover change and find...

Livin it up!

Everytime my bff comes down we always go to the viper room. we usually don't know who's playing but we always have a good time there. I've never been let down by the drinks there- I guess that's why we keep...

Legendary

Yeah, its legendary...and fun for stories to tell later on. But for some reason the acoustics are terrible. True music lovers beware. Bands I normally love just don't sound the same. It is fun to see them up...

I love the Viper Room's athmosphere! Just love the place...ok, it's a small place but i had a lot of fun there. The drinks are super and the bands on stage pretty good too most of the times. I highly suggest...

Excellent place to see a show by Tom O. at InsiderPages

There isn??t a whole lot to say about this place other than it will be one amazing show. This place doesn??t book lame bands. If someone is playing here then they are legit. Starting off, the line outside...

Look out for Mr. Depp

There's a lot of history in this venue. Johnny Depp owns it and occasionally appears on stage for a few terrible, but novelty songs. Also, River Phoenix breathed his last breath out on the sidewalk. Besides...

Bad talent ahead! Watch out for promoter night (Saturday nights)

I love this club when they do not have a local promoter filling the play slots. They usually do this on the weekend. Watch out for bands promoted by Healy Productions. They seems to books badly. We saw 4...

Viper Room by BB B. at InsiderPages

The venue itself is a GREAT place to see a show. It's small and it's 21 and over so you don't get the hijinks you get at all-ages shows (i.e. crowd surfing, moshing, annoying kids pushing their way to front)....

Embodies Coolness

This is definitely a memorable place. It's always different since it's a tourist attraction. The staff is friendly, and I love the atmosphere. Great place to meet people and have a drink.

GREAT place to see a concert ... by Chris C. at InsiderPages

I saw Mat Kearney here a few weeks ago, and I have to say it was one of my most memorable concert experiences to date. The show sold out at the door (there's only room for maybe 200 in there), and the fact...

I've been there on a Friday night with a friend and we had a great time! One thing special about Viper Room is that although it is a legendary club that frequents celebs it is nevertheless easy-going and...

Disappointed

I'll admit I was drawn partly because of the 'Johnny Depp owns this place' thing. On the Saturday night I went, what I found was a great sound system; expensive, under-poured drinks; and three mediocre bands...

Nice Music Club

Say what you will about the velvet rope, the lines outside, the River Phoenix mystique but it's really all about the music here. You never know who might take the stage on a given night. Special guests are...

I Vaguely remember good DJs

This place was better off before the face lift/remodel AND before they got RID of their resident DJs - what a sad state of affairs... If you're looking for good live music look somewhere else.

unless you're considered a VIP, this is isnt the best place to have a drink or see a show

Snakebite

Sometimes I'm amazed who plays there, how close you can get to the stage and how low the cover is considering all that. Other times, I'm like, 'who is this band related to because there's no way they got on...
