DAMN, I MISS PARIS

Very cute cocktail bar. Drinks are good, ambiance is nice but a few things could be improved to make it great. The music very loud and it's hard to talk to people sitting next to you. While everyone was nice, the service was slow for both drinks and food. The waitress didn't bring napkins, so after waiting awhile I ended up going to the bar to grab some. It also took awhile to close our tab. Right now I think it's a good place to start your night with a drink at the bar before dinner or to end as the last stop before going home.

As someone who hosts in Napa, Martha’s Vineyard, Santa Barbara, and at my home in Los Angeles, I take pride in creating unforgettable experiences for my guests. I pay close attention to every detail to ensure that everyone feels special. That’s why I’m so excited to have found Damn, I Miss Paris—a new bar that’s perfect for any gathering. This place is a vibe. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with a beautiful, thoughtfully designed space. The velvet banquettes, the sleek bar, and the stunning artwork all create an atmosphere that’s as chic as it is comfortable. Even the bathroom is a work of art—attention to detail is on point. The service is exceptional, with the bartenders crafting perfect cocktails. Whether you’re into something classic or trying a new twist, they’ve got you covered. The music? Let’s just say it’s the kind of vibe that makes you want to get up and dance, maybe even stand on the table! It’s a fantastic addition to the neighborhood, and I’m already planning my next visit. Can’t wait to host my next event here!

We wanted to try this new bar for the low lit ambience and vibe, and the drinks did not disappoint. They were fantastic! As a new establishment, a few things could be better: 1) Turn down the music - it is way too loud to have a conversation once inside. I even asked the server to turn it down and was told the owner likes it that way. Customers don’t, including the table next to our group. 2) With limited servers, allow customers to close their tab at the bar AND at their table. I was told I couldn’t close my tab at the bar after 15 minutes of waiting for a server to come to our table. 3) The front door stays open after any person exits or enters, impacting the ambience. Find a way to automatically close the door.

This place is adorable, and has potential to be something great! The glassware, the cocktail list, the bar setup, and staff are all wonderful. The music needs to be sorted out though, as it is too loud. People were all simply yelling at one another to talk last night, and that’s just the aesthetic one should be going for at a cute cocktail bar. I’ll try it again before I completely write it off.

Please support local businesses. This bar has a great vibe (think NYC craft cocktail bar). The drinks are well crafted. This is easily the best bar in the area. The music also helps set the mood. You gotta love a place whose first menu item is a Vesper Martini. As they say out here in LA: This place is for grown folks!!!

Great new bar! Music was good and not too loud. Got the Hemingway Daquiri and a dirty martini, both were really good.

Vibes and music here are amazing. It's new and the food and drinks are ok but hopefully will improve over time. We had to send our drinks back they weren't crafted well and the fries seemed like reheated frozen fries despite the parisian theme. Definitely things they can improve but a great time overall.

Gorgeous new bar with luxe finishings and classic spirit-forward cocktails. The music is loud, so it forces you to lean in close to your cocktail companions - romantic if just two of you but with a larger group might be hard to hear.

I stopped by this bar mid-week for a drink with my boyfriend, and it is gorgeous. I love the decor--it's even prettier in person! The customer service is amazing, and the playlist is fantastic. We both enjoyed our cocktails and I will definitely be back.

Finally! West Adams has a chic cocktail lounge that rivals anything in LA. Soho House vibes would be an accurate depiction because the aesthetic is second to none. Right next to the boutique Alsace Hotel. First heard about this on a neighborhood FB group. Been open less than a month. Went in at midnight on a Friday and it was like a night-out scene on HBO's "Insecure"--people were having the time of their lives dancing amidst a gorgeous backdrop in a beautiful space. No stuffy, conceited, or pretentious attitudes here--just decently priced cocktails ~$20 and ample street parking. Ample seating and a drink rail along the wall for standing room only so you feel accommodated no matter what. Justin was the head bar tender and made us feel incredibly welcome. Joel was the doorman and provided a warm welcome whilst Justin, the head bar man, was a consummate craft cocktail maker. Lots of free after hours street parking too. This place was far and away desperately needed for the hottest up-and-coming neighborhood in Los Angeles. Can't wait to go back!
