Featured Bars and Clubs


http://www.paladinosclub.com Other clubs have come and gone, but Paladino's has been a reliably rockin' fixture in the San Fernando Valley. Hard-rock tributes and metal cover bands usually fill the bill, amped up by the stage's great sound, but there are sometimes visits from authentic rock heavyweights.

http://www.palmtree-la.com When you've got a song in your heart, money is no object. That's the idea behind Palm Tree L.A., a glitzy Koreatown karaoke spot that caters to an above-the-bar clientele. The nightclub vibe quickly gives way to glowing studio-quality song rooms, some big enough for 30 crooners. At $20 an hour and up, Palm Tree isn't the cheapest norebang (karaoke in Korean) bar you'll find along Wilshire Boulevard, but it's also not the sketchiest. Instead, rely on good friends, great songs (available in English, Chinese, Spanish, Korean or Indonesian), a few light bar snacks and the occasional call for bottle service to keep your spirits high, even if your wallet ends up a touch lighter than usual.

http://www.palomino.com A Westwood Village staple, Palomino (a chain with locations throughout the U.S.) attracts UCLA students and sophisticated Angelenos with its upscale décor and high-end American fare. The restaurant's hopping happy hour at the bar is all day, every day. The deals include half-off all appetizers, $4-$6 cocktails, flatbreads ($8); pizzas ($6); highly recommended, super creamy gorgonzola waffle fries ($7), and house wines ($4).

Woodland Hills may not immediately come to mind when you think of L.A. pizza destinations. But Paoli's Pizzeria & Piano Bar on Ventura Boulevard is certainly building a name for itself with the outlandishly inventive Alfredo Pizza. A creation of owner Chairon Miller, the dense white pizza is baked with a thick layer of bright cheeses, cream, loads of butter and plenty of garlic. Each deep slice is a thick reminder of the kitchen concoctions from your childhood, recreated with high-quality ingredients by an amenable staff that knows how to please. Paoli's carries typical red sauce deep-dish options as well, including a popular sausage and cheese, but true fans of this old school red tablecloth Italian joint delight in the Climax, a very un-Italian Alredo-pesto-sausage spin that's decadent enough to put Woodland Hills back on the pizza map.

http://www.pappyandharriets.com A cowboy bar in a former false-front movie-set town near Joshua Tree has become the real thing, just by looking the part. The club books a stellar array of roots, country, indie and alt-rockers, who love to make the drive across the desert just to perform in Pappy & Harriet's unique ghost-town location.

http://www.paradisepianobar.com Savor a brown sugar martini, take in "Your Song" and relax in Paradise. This gay bar features nightly live entertainment and diverse drink menu with numerous nightly drink specials. Whether you're in Paradise to unwind during dinner, appreciate the standards being sung from the corner of the bar or be the one doing the singing during karaoke night, take advantage of the daily martini, shot or beer special. Paradise is a mish-mash of Long Beach history: The bar countertop is made of marble from the old Bank of America on Pine Street. The oversized eagle overlooking the bar is also from said bank, while the character-infused, creaky wood making up the floor is from a defunct roller rink.

http://www.patscocktailslounge.com At the Valley Village sports bar Pat’s Cocktails, there are brunette and blond Valley babes with dates, Latino guys with neck tats, black guys wearing lowdown hats, a bunch of long-haired rockers and some friendly bikers. Come to watch the game or to play your own – the bar also plays host to pool tables and karaoke. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
http://www.patrickmolloys.com When you're ready to escape the city life, head south to the Hermosa Beach pier to soak up the suds and sun at… an Irish pub? That's right. At Patrick Molloys, the Irish vibe is about as honest as the inflated beach bodies that tend to inhabit the place, but no matter. Weekend drinkers flock for the outdoor beach views and attractive indoor crowd, while Sundays during the fall are reserved for screaming football fanatics. Get here early on Saturday or Sunday for an hour of unlimited mimosas with the purchase of any breakfast, or stay late with $12 buckets of domestic beer. You won't need any luck o' the Irish if you're out looking for a good time, either. At Patrick Molloys, everybody seems to go home with someone. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
http://www.patternbar.com Ensconced in downtown's Fashion District, the Pattern Bar salutes its surroundings with specialty cocktails named for famous fashion designers like the D. Von Furstenberg (a concoction that blends Overholt Rye, Barenjager honey liquor, mint and orange), the Dior, the Chanel and the McQueen. Fittingly, the bar's logo is a sewing machine (although you'll have to look hard to find the bar's name, as it's hidden on a small corner of the front entrance). The Pattern Bar is located on the ground floor of an old multistory building on the corner of Ninth and Main streets, with a high ceiling and surrounded on two sides by large windows. On warm nights, the doors are opened up so that the entire eastern side of the room is exposed to the night air. DJs spin lounge and other sounds at Pattern Sessions every Friday and Saturday night. The menu offers tapas and Spanish-style paninis and salads, as well as the Venezuelan corn cakes known as arepas. Drinks are a little pricey but potent. Although there's no official dress code at this fashion-centric bar, informal attire (such as wearing a baseball cap) is discouraged. Happy hour occurs nightly from 5-7 p.m. Street parking. Ages 21 & over. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
http://www.goldensailshotel.com/pchclub/ The PCH club is a happening bar in an unexpected location. The first floor of a Best Western Hotel. But don't let the maids and sun screened tourists mislead you, this spot is serious about live entertainment. Housed in a cavernous concrete floor room, the PCH Club features a small bar area, several tables and, in a red-hued, backlit corner, a couple of booths. You'll also notice a large stage against one of the walls where live shows are a nightly occurrence thanks to Lynn Nicholson and Top Rock Entertainment. The PCH is frequently host to rock & roll cover bands such as Cubensis, as well as weekly karaoke nights. The full bar serves up stiff drinks and a respectable selection of draft beers including Dos Equis, Sam Adams Summer Ale, Blue Moon, Bud Light and Coors Light. Depending on the label, a pint will run you between $4 and $5. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
http://www.pecorinorestaurant.com Brentwood, it has been noted, is as thick with neo-Tuscan restaurants as the Casbah is with spice merchants, streets built on arugula salad and paved with tagliata, awash with herbed roast chickens, pizza margherita and bean soup. Sor Tino, Osteria Latini, Pizzicotto, Toscana, Palmeri, Divino, La Scala Presto — they may not, as has been rumored, all feed into a secret communal kitchen, but I would defy most people to tell the cooking apart blindfolded. Pecorino, at the eastern end of the strip, shares more than a few characteristics with these pleasant, nondescript dining rooms. You will not be deprived of your burrata, your giant steak or your tiramisu. But the cuisine is at least nominally that of the Abruzzi, southeast of Rome, and the bean soup is made with pureed chickpeas — delicious. There is an abundance of cherry tomatoes in everything from the marjoram-scented sauce on the eggplant-stuffed tortelloni to the salt cod with rosemary, and both artichokes and the namesake sheep cheese are ubiquitous — in the stewed tripe, over the carpaccio and in the egg-enriched casserole of lamb.

http://www.pehrspace.org Hidden in the back of the drab Glen Village parking lot in Filipinotown, this art gallery and live-music space may seem plain on the outside, but it's a veritable hothouse blooming with wild expressions of art and underground and indie rock. Run by volunteers, Pehrspace is a not-for-profit, all-ages venue. Call to schedule appointments for exhibit viewings. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
New Yorkers longing for Malaysian cooking have always tended to head to one of the Penang restaurants out in Flushing or in Manhattan's Chinatown. When I lived in New York, the various Penangs never seemed quite up to the level of my favorite Los Angeles Malaysian restaurants, but Penang always had great roti canai: delicately crisp flour pancakes as large as crumpled handkerchiefs, served with a small bowl of coconut-scented chicken curry tinted a deep rust color with chile oil. And the roti canai at the first West Coast location of Penang are really very good. After you finish the roti, a bowl of the herbal pork-rib soup called bah kut teh, and maybe a plate of crunchy fried purple eggplant or a dish of the Chinese water spinach kangkong fried with a fistful of the smelly, fermented shrimp paste belacan, you can have another order of pancakes, this time stuffed with ground peanuts and hot syrup for dessert. Are there mediocre dishes at Penang? A few of them: sliced chicken sauteed with mangoes and a violent-red sweet-and-sour sauce; soggy, egg-filled roti telur; a flat basil chicken. But anything on the menu marked by the word sambal, referring to a highly spiced chile paste, is bound to be pretty good. The service is authentically Malaysian, which is to say that the waiters appear at the table at erratic intervals and will let you order four versions of the same dish without comment, but will still make you love them by the end of the meal.

http://www.thehuntleyhotel.com/penthouse-restaurant.php One of Santa Monica's highest-flying bars, Penthouse at the Huntley Hotel is awash in white, appointed with dainty chandeliers and divvied up (by gauzy curtains) into indoor cabanas. Each of them provides an ideal perch from which to watch the sun slink slowly behind the Palisades. Hoteliers have even installed an express elevator (with a stunning ocean view of its own) that zips past prole floors 1 to 17 to deposit patrons directly at one of the Penthouse's leather couches. Prices are surprisingly affordable, which makes stopping by for a twilight drink an absolute no-brainer. Read more about this Los Angeles bar or club >>
