The Bottom Line! - Review - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"If you're over 35, a night out doesn't have to involve lining up behind a bunch of people who are at least ten years younger than you —that is, if you head to Bottom Line in Inglewood. This popular, cash-only club has a sign out front that says "35 and over." So you can expect a more mature crowd to dominate the dancefloor and the tiny bar counter inside. If you're not looking to dance, you can always hang around the pool table or spend the night people-watching as the crowd gets increasingly rowdier throughout the night. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation

I would not recommend to go here. The owners do not allow you to dance close to each other. We are not 16 yrs old. Also you are not allowed to dance alone. They incorporate too many rules that they don’t abide by. The owner dance close with his wife. The DJ on Sundays is terrible. It’s sad because this is a local club with a family environment. And they are destroying the atmosphere. It use to be so much fun.

I've been going here for over 20 years and have never been disappointed. The atmosphere is good, the drinks are reasonably priced and the people (older crowd) are friendly.

Wonderful local spot. Good food, great service, really nice people, staff and customers alike. Made new friends.

Local dive for local mature crowd. They didn't trip on my age because I was with my mother. 🤣 FYI they only accept cash. And even with a cover charge, there is a 2 drink minimum.

The Bottom Line is an oldie but goodie that keeps on giving. The fried shrimp is the best I've ever had! Good drinks, food, and people. Great ownership.

This place is HORRIBLE the low budget security harassesed my friend and told her she could not come in the club unless she bought a drink. He need to be fired !!! immediately. After the experience with the security guard, I give this place a negative 10 stars. The place was good but security made it bad, me nor my friends will not be returning because of him.

Me and my best friend would always pass and laugh at us it being able to get in because it was 35 and up. Welp, here we are 36, and we just said let's just go see what it's about. When I tell you I HAD A TIME! Yes it's a hole in a wall, yess it's small and yesssss the dranks are skrong!!! The place was full of people older than 36. I believe we were the youngest ppl in there aside from the bartender. One thing I will say, those older people knew how to party! Not one bad vibe, no fights or nothing that would typically end the night early. We went back a second time and had just as much fun! I even had the DJ come out and dance with me lol. If you wanna have a drink and hear some music, it's not too bad of a place. Esp if you know how to have a good time.

Very cool old school vibe but the door security dude could be nicer or more professional - We stopped by on a Sunday night & I asked him what the cover charge was, he frowned up & looked at me like I asked him to baby sit some kids

I mean the day I went it bc was for the 35 and older crowd and I can assure you some of these people weren't 35 and older. One dude left his gf there just to leave with another girl and omg it was just all bad. Overall it was a decent place if you wave hang with older crowd with oldies and karaoke. They serve cocktails and beers and foods. I had a salmon plate and it was spicey. But wasn't too bad. I did take pictures but it was so dark it's not worth posting!

Nice spot on Manchester.. they have a menu for food, drinks are overpriced but the DJ, Hurricane, is on point with the music and for a tip he'll play what YOU want to hear - bliss!! A few shady characters, but a real GROWN FOLKS club. No issues, will definitely return after this Covid19 nightmare. Dance floor is a little small but still a nice vibe. Kinda reminded me of the Serenader in Oakland, CA back in the day. Tip the bartenders well and they'll pay better attention to you - some are kinda mean but money melt's that every time.

DAYYYUM THAT DJ MADE MY DAY!!! (5 more stars added for the music) Small place with reasonably priced delicious well drinks. Not sure why they have a 2 drink minimum... I'd have more than that with my group. Not sure why its only a cash bar/place. I would have spent a lot more if I could have used my visa at the bar and opened a tab at the bar. Nice people, seem like locals to me. I loved the sign at the door that read "35 and over". Inside: love the red leather couches next to the small dance floor, love the wooden accents, the ceiling had a Saturday Night Fever touch which went well with the music! The overall feel was Regal Beagle. If you want to groove to some good R&B and you're grown folk, then check this place out! It's a must. On a side note, I'd prefer to see a big bouncer at the door than that sweet little lady handling the patrons at the door.

The food by Kat Sweets or is it (Sweet Kat)? Either way the food is delicious! Its a must try if you are in the area. Great food good people strong cocktails and a good game of pool you cant miss @Bottomline. The atmosphere is laidback and dim lit

An outstanding time if you enjoy being among black folks. I felt like I was in Memphis. The scene was safe and fun

The BottomLine is a nice club with nice people except for the rude ugly black hood rat front door person( I cannot call her a lady because she doesn't conduct herself as one). She's very rude, no home training whatsoever. As soon as you step inside she demands the $5 cover charge as if you're going to run and hide and not pay. My hubby and I frequent this club alot and people know my hubby because he plays pool, so I walk in and start waving at one of our friends and this rude HOOD RAT says to me " you cannot cross the line until you pay" so I look at her and tell her my hubby's paying and she was very adamant and started getting all GHETTO while my hubby was getting his wallet to pay but she wouldn't let me walk another foot, so I said she was rude and she had the nerve to say I was disrespectful. It's a way of speaking to people not speaking down to them. I will definitely call the owner tomorrow. This so called lady needs to be fired! No type of hostess etiquette whatsoever. She definitely needs some social skills. This is not the first time she's done this. I thought I was going to listen to some good music and watch my hubby play pool but instead I had to look at her ugly rude face. If you've never seen a HOOD RAT, go to the BottomLine and you'll see her up close and personal : she sits at the front door. Have your money ready or else she'll demand it. The security guard and everybody else were very nice and respectful. She's the one that needs to be kicked off the team! Her demeanor is aggressive and nasty like her face. No manners at all!!!

This was my second time comming here. I had as much fun as the first time. Fun people, friendly service, and good strong drinks. The dancefloor was full of happy people. The crowd is older but i like that. There is plenty of security inside and out. There is a smoking area outside. The mens and womans bathroom is far separate which is good. No peeping toms. The DJ played good beats and up to date. I will definitely go again.

There is no nightlife in this area... truly for miles around (probably because it's not known as the best area...) This is the only thing that comes close - and it's definitely a chill place to grab drinks and sing some old classics, albeit with a bit of an older crowd (ignore the 35+ sign only allowed on the door, but it's pretty much all 35+). Cheap, strong drinks - 2 cocktails + a corona for $17 - and great for people watching and getting a feel for the neighborhood!

This place is the definition of a hole in the wall. Went here for low key girls night, had a good time. Absolutely an over 35 crowd and music. Towards the end of the night they start playing newer music, a little hip hop, reggae but nothing too crazy. The dance floor is suuuper small. The drinks are strong and moderately priced, there is a 2 drink minimum though if you are sitting at a table. Oh and it's CASH ONLY but they do have an atm. Waitress' are nice but can hold their own if you act a fool. The patrons were friendly, seems like they all knew each other. There are TV's with sports and a pool table. Overall good experience.

This karaoke/cocktail lounge is an abundance of great vibes. Right when walk in, you can just feel the positive vibes everyone contains. Everyone contributes to karaoke, and gets involved. They have 1$ turkey/pork/chicken tacos that are super BOMB, SUPER. The drinks are a little pricey, but quite delicious. I got an apple martini, and my husband got a grand mariner and both were delicious, even though the size was small, we savored the delicious flavor! Everyone looks like they're one big family, and they show you TONS of love and recognition and I just love that in a lounge. My boy Dj AD sure knows how to host a joint and I greatly appreciated his hospitality. I was feeling shitty before we went out, but now that the night is over, I'm glad I went out!

This establishment gets 3 stars because it's near my house and usually not crowded, which I love. However, they don't take debit or credit, and the ATM is broke. The crowd is 40 and over and over :-) They don't let you have a tab, and the waitress (older one) makes you feel like you're conducting an illegal transaction because she's so rude (honestly don't think she realizes it) and rushes you, like it's normal in 2018 to carry an abundance of cash. When I said my cousin would have to drive to the grocery store to get money from the ATM, she said she was about to get off work and stared like we had another option. No apology for the broken ATM, the lack of modern technology (debit or credit card option), the fact my cousin had to go out at 9pm alone to find an ATM, that I had to watch the drinks, that our night out that we rarely get was inconvenienced, or that I spent my evening typing a yelp review.

Was in LA visiting family, from the south Atlanta. Wanted to go somewhere with good music and drinks. Found this place Bottom Line, as soon as we entered the 35 and up club everyone was friendly and the music was on point! The drinks were very affordable $8 and the bartender frequently checked on us. A small spot with a big party! Definitely worth visiting!
