Gina Hart: Great happy hour! We sat at bar and enjoyed apps. Everything we ordered was over the top good. Bartender gave us a chocolate chip cookie with sea salt at end if night!
LA Weekly: Try a basil gimlet or the signature Misfit cocktail. 1/2 off well drinks during happy hour are a steal when you realize its Buffalo Trace Bourbon & Tito's Handmade Vodka. Happy Hour noon-7pm daily! Read more.
