Doheny Room

Food was ok. The menu is really about fusion so font come looking for authentic Japanese food. The restaurant is tastefully decorated and there was a nice late nite vibe. I would absolutely recommend the torro with caviar. Real decadence on a plate. However the flashing light bulb was just silly in its presentation and made the dish feel 'kitch'. The other dishes we had were 'meh' in my opinion. A late place to eat.

This is a place to grab a drink before going to the Troubadour nearby. The service is spectacular or cold at the north pole (the GM actually yelled at one of the managers in front of us. The food is less then average. It is hard to understand how they could ruin a filet.

If you are looking for fun don’t go here, besides it being very boring during New Year’s Eve. One of the staff members was very rude and racist towards us. He was a short and buff, I’m pretty sure he was middle eastern and had long hair and wore a hat during the New Year’s Eve party. Fire him immediately he is scaring away your costumers, making the bar lose money.

A fun place to go grab some dinner and drinks with friends befor going to the night club that's located right above the Doheny Room lounge, the food is good but the access to the night club will require a table or reservation prior to arrival.

Personable and attentive staff. Very well prepared food. Highest quality.

I love this place. The food is amazing. The prices are astronomical. The unibrows are hilarious. They have the best Sunday night quiet night this side of Doheny.

Fun clubby vibes upstairs but the bartenders don’t even know how to make a margarita, got it remade after the first time and it still tastes like throw up, sad vibes.

Use to go here all the time. Had an amazing dancing experience. Went back recently at 1:20am. They wouldn’t even let me upstairs. They said I had to buy a table… at 1:20am? Crazy that my friends were up there and promoters. Never coming back here would advise the same for anyone wanting to dance at a club. There are many other places on sunset to go. It’s not worth your time.

Went to this place on Saturday and had a blast. The vibe was fancy party vibes with loud music which was great for us! We ordered a bunch items off different parts of the menu. Hamachi Tacos, Chicken Wonton Soup, spicy Gyoza. They were all really tasty. Only real knock on the food was the portion size. The tacos were very tiny and they only gave us 2 per order. The service was excellent the food was taking a long time but our waitress was very accommodating and brought us drinks for our patience. We were able to grab a couple drinks on the rooftop bar as well. All in all great spot for you to go and spend a night with your friends if you are willing to spend some money.

I reserved the Doheny Room/ Andy's Bar for a milestone birthday celebration and was deeply disappointed with how my event was handled. Just hours before the party, I was informed that my reserved space was no longer available due to overbooking. Management communicated that another event had taken priority due to a higher payment, which left me scrambling at the last minute, we still tried to make it work because I had 200 guests and was unable to make other plans but it was awful, some of my guests were unable to enter the venue, causing significant inconvenience and financial loss. When booking, I had concerns because I'd seen this happen to another event at the Doheny Room recently, but the manager assured me it was a one-time issue. Unfortunately, this was not the case. I hope future guests have a better experience, but I would suggest verifying all details thoroughly with a signed contract in advance if you're considering this venue for an important event. I wish this for no one.

I have only been there on Sat nights for drinks. The service is fast and their drinks are delicious. Music is good, great vibes and usually a fun crowd. I highly suggest this place to start a fun Sat night!

Sometimes it can get crowded and annoying and difficult to go into for starters and the bouncers can be tough and difficult. I'm guessing it's probably because they deal with a lot of difficulties. Not particularly somewhere I would frequent just because this is not really my style. But when you do get it, i like their music, drinks and food.

RACIST and PREDITORY!! DO NOT COME HERE IF YOU ARE MELANATED OR AN ALLY. Just like most people on here giving one star, I wish I could give zero. I honestly don't know why they let us in other than the fact we are gorgeous. For such a horrifically racist place the staff was surprisingly nice. When we sat down, I told my partner that the wall art seemed super racist and LOW AND BEHOLD we weren't allowed upstairs like all the white folk when it came time. When we pointed it out we were initially gaslight about it till we pressed them. There were 4 of us Black folk and one white gal and they literally admitted to being racist when we kept asking questions. Also, the people being let in and let upstairs were under age. So I'm sure they have some predictor ring collab with their promoters. This place's days are for sure numbered. It's just sad because it's 2022.

If you're looking for a place for cheap drinks: not here If you're looking for decent service: not here The bartenders on the bottom floor are kind for the most part. We were with a group of 5 friends and 3 went upstairs and all got let into the top floor as I even got the star stamp on my arm (to be allowed to go up) and waited for my friend in the bathroom. Once she got out we were told it was over capacity / past 12am and couldn't go in all the while the woman behind the ropes were letting in groups of people primarily skinny white women. Our friends were told they had to come down to get us and then once they did they still did not let us in to join them. They paid for their drinks and we all left. Awful place. ... never again sweetie ;)

I got food poisoning here on July 6th. I was in the hospital the next day. I'm 100% sure it was from what I ate there. Also in the upstairs restrooms there was no toilet paper, no soap and no paper towels. This is probably why there's a problem. I messaged their Instagram account because no one answers the phone. The person that runs a social media account refused to pass on the message to the management. Its ruined my life since I still throw up constantly. I left messages no one calls me back. It was notated at the hospital so I'll call the health department. Cute place but don't eat the tuna.

Absolutely trash. You have to chase your order to make sure you will get it, if not they might bring your drink right when you're about to finish your food. The food is totally mediocre too, don't waste your time with this place.

I was skeptical because of the previous reviews, but to my surprise, it was wonderful!!! They recently changed the chef and menu and everything was delicious!! Our favorite was the toro tartare!! The service was more than 5 stars!! They were quick with our drinks and food and always refilling our waters and drinks without us asking. They even changed our napkins and plates throughout our meal. The waiter was very informative about the menu too! The ambiance was cute! Great date night!

I have had the Doheny Room bookmarked for quite some time, so I'm glad I was finally able to check it out. My friend and I made a dinner reservation for 7pm on a Saturday night, right when the restaurant/lounge opened. We were some of the 1st patrons to arrive, so I was able to really see the space. Doheny Room has a tropical theme and lots of pink/magenta/purple lighting. The music had a nice range from classic oldies to electronic. Dinner seating is spacious around the perimeter of the main dining room downstairs with a bar in the middle. Upstairs is more lounge seating and another bar. The staff were all young and friendly - they definitely seemed relatable and truly happy to be there and connect with us! My friend and I started off with some cocktails, and I recommend the Plunkett signature vodka-based cocktail. It kind of tasted like pink lemonade! The dishes at Doheny Room are meant to be shared, so my friend and I shared a few of their popular dishes including the crispy Brussels sprouts, Greek chicken meatballs, and the vegan mango and kale sushi. We finished our meal with the baked-to-order apple tart, which is warm, flaky, and so yummy, especially with the vanilla gelato on top. Overall, we had a wonderful evening at Doheny Room! I would definitely like to return to check out late-night festivities, when they have a DJ and dancing!

We were having dinner downstairs at the restaurant with the intention of making our way upstairs until we saw the crowd - it actually looked like all 12 year old coming in. Just no.

Food is extremely tiny and overpriced, I understand that is an "LA thing" They had a "tuna pizza" that was literally just a mexican tostada Also they charge for "a cake cutting fee" If you have common sense you do not charge someone who is celebrating their birthday extra.. on the contrary... The few tastes of food that we had were good, service was really good and our waiter was really nice

"Doorman discretion" = RACIST and SEXIST. Don't bother coming here unless you're rich, blonde, or a group of only girls. We were a group of 4 (2 guys 2 girls) trying to get upstairs but were told by the bouncers that we had to get a table with a minimum of $500. Sure fine, whatever. Upstairs didn't look packed at all but we got a drink anyway and sat at a table downstairs. Before we could finish our first drink (which were expensive af btw), we saw at least 8 different groups of WHITE people get let upstairs. A lot of them were either groups of girls only or snobbish looking couples. I highly doubt they ALL got tables. Save your time and money and avoid this absolute POS. Shame that the "bouncer" (he looked more like a pretentious dude trying to still act like a frat boy) is so racist in this day and age.

My friends and I had THE WORST NIGHT EVER because of this god forsaken place. It looks nice and fancy outside but in reality they are racist, sexist, have a terrible service, and an appalling attitude from the staff. Me and my friends (all 21+ FYI) had a hard time getting in because we were mostly people of color. My two Latino friends had the hardest time. The bouncer kept claiming my female friend's ID was fake just because she was Puerto Rican and her ID was from PR. When we eventually all got inside, we bought drinks (my G+T was warm) and hung around talking. The downstairs place is a bar area and we thought it was pretty empty and was confused. It turns out everyone was upstairs in the "club area". We tried to go up...but there was a second group of bouncers blocking us, saying we needed to buy a table for $500 to access. So we just stayed at the bar. Finally, one bouncer came up to the only white person in my group and said his "dancing got him access to the club area". All of us followed our friend, but when it came time for my two Latino friends to enter, the bouncers stopped them. When I came back down 5 minutes later to try to get them in, as I realized they were not with the group, the manager claimed they were too drunk to be let in despite them being quite sober. When I persisted they harshly escorted all 3 of us out of the club. Never recommending this place ever again. STAY AWAY

This place was fun. The music was super eclectic which I loved. From 90's hits all the way to the Beatles. The DJ was all over the place but it made it fun and different than most clubs. Getting a table is a good idea because this place is super packed and it's nice not to be in the middle of everyone pushing and shoving to get through. The drinks were pricy at $17 for a whiskey sour. It was nice and strong but I'd probably have drinks before getting there next time. Service was friendly and super quick though which was greatly appreciated with how packed it was. Fun place to try out in WeHo!

Had a fantastic time! The sushi was delicious and fresh. The sushi chef ordered the tuna from Japan and it was phenomenal. The staff was super friendly and attentive. We will definitely be back!

Me and a couple of my girlfriends came here for the club part of the Doheny Room. We were blessed to slide right in because we got ahold of the promoter Ryan! Thanks to Ryan for that easy pass. The club is very small and everyone is stuck together like paper and glue. There wasn't much room to dance, walk or do anything. Other than that the music was popping and lively!

Ate at the bar, the bartender was extremely nice and recommended a few drinks to compliment our meal! Great service and not too expensive either!

I sincerely think these types of "restaurants" should stick to selling alcohol and not attempt to give customers a culinary experience or even a food menu. I ordered the ahi tuna salad & the waitress brought a salad with absolutely no tuna in it. I thoroughly mixed the salad to make sure it wasn't finely chopped & I couldn't see it. I told the waitress about the issue, she thought it was also strange, and took it back to the kitchen. She returns from the kitchen with the same salad bowl and says! Are you sure you didn't eat the tuna or take it out of the bowl? I was simply dumbfounded at the question, quite offended, and couldn't believe a waitress would lack such customer service to suspect and ask such a rude question. Who even does that?! Far too many great restaurants in Hollywood to even waste time, appetite and money here.

Where do I start... So I have been coming to the Doheny room for about 3 years now. At first,​ I loved it; the ​good vibe, fun people and the drinks were not outrageously overpriced. I had the same experience pretty much each of the times that I had come until a week ago, which is the first time I've been treated this way at any establishment in my life (maybe I've just been lucky). So rewind to Thursday 10/25, I was staying in Beverly Hills on a mini-honeymoon staycation​ with my wife and we met up with a group of my family to go out for the evening that had been visiting from the east coast. After dinner, we went out in WeHo and a few were tired, including my wife so they all went back to the hotel. That left 6 of us remaining. Two of my cousins and I left WeHo and arrived at Doheny around 12 am​, We went to the bouncer out front, walked to the back (the downstairs was closed) and some guy who I assumed worked there full time asked for our IDs and let us up. I said, thanks and that I had a couple others coming and asked if I needed to come down and get them to which he replied no. We get a drink, hang out waiting for the other 3 of my cousins and I see a text message that says "this guy is being an a**hole and won't let us up". I go downstairs, with my drink in hand, and I let the guy know that I just told him I had 3 others coming and that it wouldn't be an issue. So I asked what the problem was and he turns to me and says: "they didn't make the cut". I asked him what that means and he said:​ "look at them, they don't belong". Meanwhile,​ there are​ groups of questionably legal people dressed in sweats, oversized tees, ​and winter beanies just walking on through giving this guy high fives. By this time it was,​ 1 ​am and we couldn't go anywhere else so I made one final approach to the guy and asked him what it would take to get us back up there and he said: "Ummm​, you can go back up, but if you want everyone to go up you will buy a table for $500". Needless to say, I passed on some choice words as I wasn't going to spend $500 for a table to get kicked out for closing time in 45min, so we called it a night. Moral of the story, once a Doheny Room fan, now you'll never see me in there again. This wasn't a dress code, over-serving or capacity issue...this was blatant​ discrimination, not by gender, sex or race...but by who this guy thought was worthy to enter the bar for that night. Hey,​ when in LA, gotta take any ounce of power you have and run with it right? Wrong answer. The sad part is, it's probably an outside promoter rather than a Doheny Room employee, nonetheless, it's your responsibility and they represent your brand. Don't worry Doheny Room, I've spread this little story around to every single person I know in LA. And sure you may not feel the effects of it, but at least people know what kind of mentality gets promoted behind the scenes.

Disappointed and didn't have a good experience on my birthday. I came here thinking this would be a good venue to celebrate on my special day. Here's a quick recap: Rude Staff: Almost everybody I encountered was extremely rude towards me and my guests, from the bouncers to the people who worked for the club. Bad crowd: Drunk people who swear. Not Classy whatsoever. Quality of guys and girl is also sub-par. Rude and unattractive people which is the worst combination ever. I have been to exclusive events that celebs attend so I do have an idea of what good and bad crowds should be like. I saw some high rollers at this club but honestly, this is not the place to be. Good Music but bad air: The music was good I must say. However, the "club" (it's really a lounge with a small dance floor) is so crowded that there is no room to breathe, let alone dance. It reminded me of a bad frat party. I ended up having to go downstairs to take a break (and was not permitted back upstairs due to the rude staff members).

Love the food and ambiance. Went upstairs to dance when it opened up and it was very fun. Will definitely return.

Came here for drinks after dinner a few saturdays ago. I've had it bookmarked and finally got to try it. A friend and I arrived close to 10pm before there was a line. The decor is adorable! Loved the interior and enjoyed good music as well. I ordered a lightly sweetened mojito. It was tasty! Dj started setting up around then and it started to get pretty lit once the the lights dimmed down. Will have to come back to check out the food! Cute date spot FYI! :)

High level spot to chill out for weekends. You need a reservation and without it there is a waiting list at least an hour or so. Very fast paced and nice dining area with 2 bars in each floor. Great dj and nice staff. Highly recommended

I was pleasantly surprised at how good the food was here for a place that turns into a lounge/club scene at night. We sat upstairs which opens only after 8pm. We had a cozy booth. The cushions were not that comfortable though and I found out why- when this place turns into a night club and people get a table for bottle service they stand on the seat cushions and jump up and down. I was surprised no one said anything to them. Back to the food - Everything we had was excellent. The staff was very attentive although we never knew who our waiter was since we probably had 4 people help us out throughout the night. We came here for dine LA and ordered the steak, fish, vegetable sushi, Brussels sprouts and the apple tart. I'm not into sweets much but I ate the whole thing - it was that good!!

A nice swanky joint taking place of the old Mercato Di Vetro next to the Troubadour. I came on a Monday night and the place was surprisingly slowly becoming full. If you only wanted drinks, you were to stay at the bar, even though there were still ample empty tables. Nevertheless, we ordered drinks and appys. The place is pricey for small portions, what the elixir and appys we ordered were of great taste and quality. The crispy brussel sprouts with balsamic reduction and chopped salad with yogurt, nigella seeds, sprouts, and spiced cracker were two to write home about. For drink, I enjoyed The Plunkett -- Mango Belvedere with passion fruit. It was sweet but tasted wonderful. I heard the Wayans bro's come here sometimes. We also befriended a rowdy bunch near the bar, but everyone else seemed to be to themselves otherwise.

The new trendy place to go, tough to get a reservation, and always packed. The food: Not a huge selection but food is pretty tasty I enjoyed the ahi tuna salad and the vegetable sushi rolls (corn asparagus was amazing and the avocado beet was a winner too) Ambiance: Cute, trendy, can dress up, lot of people at the bar and on dates. They have an upstairs with a more loungey vibe, and the main bar downstairs. Service: The service was pretty quick and got our order right, but I felt rushed THE ENTIRE TIME. There were at least 5 people hovering over our table trying to clear things up. I get it, supposed to be considered good service, but it felt like they were trying to turn the table around and get the next party seated ASAP. I wasn't even able to finish a sentence without being interrupted by the waiters asking if we were done. Would I go back- yes. But be prepared to be crunched on time.

Fun experience. Food is good but not so memorable. Service is great. If you eat here it is probably to make it easier for you to enjoy the festivities when the kitchen closes.

First time time here finally after hearing so much about it . Wednedsy night we came for dinner. At first we sat by the bar and Nico said hi to us immediately. Such an amazing energy.... Definitely woke us up after a long day at work. She made wonderful suggestions both on the food menu and also on the drinks. I recommend the tequila with the honey drink. She made it strong. Amazing after work! NICO THANK YOU FOR THE PERFECT SERVICE. All the recommendation we're on point and she was so quick to serve us. Even the security guy at the front was nice and let us in without any problems. Will be back.

1. Ambience: Restaurant meets nightlife. Chic, intimate, lounge-inspired. Great place before going out. At 10:30pm the upstairs lounge opens for dancing and cocktails. 2. Attire: Upscale casual/classy 3. Food: Multicultural shared plates (get the Mushroom toast!) 4. Signature cocktails (Plunkett was delicious) 5. Dessert: The Chocolate Dome! (A crowd pleasing dessert! Waiter lights dome on fire and the chocolate melts into the ice cream, mouse, marshmallow filled dome!) 5. Reservations: Difficult - (to ensure entrance to the upstairs lounge, make a 9/9:30 dinner res) 6. Parking: $10 Valet with validation or meter parking

I would give the Doheny Room a soft four. The ambience and bar vibes are amazing, great place to come grab a drink for sure. The food is solid, nothing will blow you away but it's solid. We ordered: The Brussel sprouts - very good but I think this is my last stop on the Brussel sprout train, if you have had them once you've had them a million times The lobster fries - a little to greasy for me but still good, I wouldn't order again however Asian chicken sliders - very good and tasty - I recommend Beet and avocado roll - highly recommend - a very good and unique dish, kudos to the chef for this creation Good vibes for a date night and a place to come with some trendy couples.

It's really disappointing that Sam nor anyone from SBE doesn't read these comments. First the food is mediocre at best. Service sucks, our waitress didn't give a crap about serving us and had an attitude. I brought 10 people here for my birthday dinner and it was more than disappointing. Then, after we eat and pay a $1500 bill, we are told we gotta go outside and reenter to go to the lounge..come again ? Why would I have to exit and re-enter? Then they got this a-hole at the front named Allen. I go up to Him and ask him if we can go to the lounge since we just dropped $1500 and he says I've been misinformed and I have to get bottle service lol. What a clown! This is the problem when a door guy who makes 40k a year is given too much power. The guy was so over the top and rude. It was as if he owned the club. I won't be back nor will I go to another sbe owned property.

This was theeeee worst birthday ever first I reserved a table at Hyde sunset cocktails and the canceled my reservation the day before my birthday and told me this was a great place to go to for my $25th she told me that she would be booking my table for me once I got there security let me in the vibe was nice I was actually enjoying myself at the bar with my group or girls....once we tried to go upstairs the bouncer said we weren't allowed I told him I have a reservation set for my birthday and he told me it's was set for downstairs....but he never looked or checked anything he just didn't let me so I asked him who could I speak to to get in and he pointed me to a guy and told me I should wait until the party dies down.... once that happened we just left and went to bossa nova, I'll never come here AGAIN

It doesn't matter how much money you spend they will treat you poorly upon entering and exiting. Security is trained to be disparaging to customers. After spending hundreds of dollars at the restaurant my group was forced to go out and wait in line to get in to the lounge upstairs because the lounge is run by a promoter. The security guard said "you know how it is, no one is down to earth in Hollywood. So go outside and show the bouncers how hot you girls are and they'll let you back in. It's Hollywood baby." The lounge is extremely hot with no outside area or ventilation on that floor. Drinks are overpriced. Music is all from 2006. Crowd itself is all "just doin it for the gram"... Do yourself a favor and spend your money somewhere else.

Love this place! Beautiful decor, beautiful, sweet staff & the food... MMmmmm so good. The place is loungy enough to be comfortable yet beautiful enough to have a reason to doll up.

Definitely must go back. service was magnificent Waitresses were so cute & their uniforms !! Anyhow lots of great choices on the menu and henestly all awesome. Asian fried chicken sliders, all American sloders, salmon carpaccio, kale salad, avocado Tuna ceviche, wow yum. Mushroom toast was so unique, never had anything like this before: thick piece of toast w sautes mushrooms and an egg on top with amazing sauces Lots of explosions in my mouth with first and second and thirds bites. Afterward club upstairs was amazing crowd, only thing I didn't like was they made us give up our table after dinner. DJ was pretty cool lots of 80s and 90s music. Can't wait to go back.

Amazing food, service and decor. A nice cozy spot for dinner and drinks. The food: A What to get: crispy brussel sprouts, mushroom toast with egg, chicken meetballs, beef wagyu hot dogs, rice pudding I love this place! The paintings are cute and so is the banana leaf wallpaper upstairs... The layout is great. Upstairs is a good venue to rent for a private party.

This place is a 2 story building with a bar, night life and restaurant. Love it here, it's all ages and great place to go on a date, with girlfriends or on your own for a little drink or two. It does get busy after around 9:30pm so a reservation is a good idea. However, they do get a group of young college students and that can get a little crazy but before that time it's great atmosphere, food and drinks. Enjoy!

Food and drinks are amazing!!!!!!! The best VIP service ever. The servers are so nice! they are blondes in the summer and brunettes in the winter.

It's your typical SBE property/restaurant.... great place for people watching, food is good, stay away from the drink list! My wife and I got 4 different drinks of the specialty list, not one of them was good! Get the Brussel sprouts and get the chicken meatballs for sure! Dead before 930p on a Saturday night. Make your reservation for after. Overall it was just OK. Would I go again, probably not unless I was invited for someones birthday. can't reiterate enough... DO NOT ORDER SPECIALTY DRINKS!

Beware: Especially people from out of state. The door person will gouge your cover price. The worst attitude and people skills. Avoid this place at all cost. Locals got in at $10. We were charged $40 for VIP and never got VIP. We only got ignored by the bar staff inside.

The place was nice but the food was just above average. They also took a long time to bring everything out so we kept ordering because we were hungry and then suddenly a dozen plus dishes came out together. The waiter was nice but didn't really know the menu very well.

The staff was really nice that night. But there was nothing left on the menu when we got there except a few appetizers. And the few things we ordered, we were told they were out. So we got a few dishes that we didn't even want because other sushi restaurants were already closed. Oh and they completely forgot about a replace order we made lol There were two parties of ten coming in after us and countless other smaller groups. I have no idea what they ate. In a situation like that, I would think to stop taking reservations or warn people when they sit down. The excuse was that Valentine's Day was the day before. So there wasn't a fresh shipment? And you knew since last night and continued to take reservations? On the plus side, the staff was nice. But we left hungry.

We were a party of 8 for a birthday dinner. The food was average, service pretty slow but the waitress was very pleasant. What was completely shocking and bizarre is what happened to the special birthday cake we brought. So the cake was large (should serving 20 people with generous slices). They brought it out, and as soon as birthday boy blew out the candles took it away and we never saw it again. No one even took a picture they took it away so fast. Than we each got a PAPER THIN cake slices (imagine bakery cake slice and cut that in 4). Ok, more for later right? OH NO. We had table upstairs and asked to pick up the rest of the cake at the end of the night. When we came downstairs at the end, they gave us cake box with barely 1/5 of the cake left! Note the cake was custom ordered (using only organic products) and was expensive. What did they eat the rest?? So BIZARRE and UNACCEPTABLE.

The drinks on their menu were okay. I asked for a spicy tequila drink, always my go-to, and it was delicious. It had been mixed with jalapenos and I loved it. Service was okay, but there was one suspicious bartender who asked me to show him my ID after I had been carded at the door where they also scanned my ID. I asked him why he needed to see it again, and his reply was "just show me please". I hate to be that person, but I was the only obvious Latina person at the bar and as far as I know, the only person he asked to show ID. I didn't appreciate it and it made me uncomfortable. I didn't get that bartender's name, but he was wearing cheesy suspenders and seemed very full of himself. Luckily another bartender took care of us after that. The bar itself was nice, but I would not go back because of that bartender's rude behavior.

This cute little spot is perfect for date night or a date out with the girls. The decor is beautiful and not over exaggerated. You can dress casual cute or dress it up and you wouldn't feel out of place. I literally came in sneakers just because I was going to try out the chocolate dome and wanted a drink but if you're the type of person that likes to fit in, then dress up instead. The chocolate dome was delicious, a little heavy on the cognac, but still good. The waitress was really nice and welcoming so it was a good experience overall.

Loved every inch of the Doheny. From decor to cuisine, everything is tasteful and elegant. Was the perfect spot to host (and impress) old and new friends for a birthday dinner, followed by salacious dancing and drinks in the private club upstairs. Simply perfect.

AMBIANCE Situated in the beautiful West Hollywood. Valet parking available $10. Street parking also available but difficult. 2 story restaurant - FIRST FLOOR: a full bar centered in the middle of the room. modern decorated with beautiful art wall pieces, booths available - SECOND FLOOR: SEATING HERE STARTS AT 8PM. full bar as well up here. all booths on the second floor. LOVE THE SECOND FLOOR. wall decal is gorgeous with green palm trees. adds a wonderful lively vibe. Second floor turns into a nightlife at 10:30pm SERVICE Horrible upon entering. My best friend chose this place to celebrate the first of many of my birthday celebrations for February. We checked in with the hostess at 730pm and requested to be seated on the second floor. Second floor seating not available until 8pm so we hung out at the bar to kill time. WOMAN BARTENDER was rude AF. we were trying to catch her attention and she can tell that we were patiently staring at her waiting to order but yet she decides consciously not to pay attention to us. then she turns to the guy and says UGH CAN YOU TAKE CARE OF THESE 2. GUY BARTENDER was cool. super nice. waiting for our table, a chef decides to give us free shots through the restaurant manager "Mark". tried to conversate with Mark and he was rude too & completely blew me off. Relax, I was just being really friendly we got our bill and set it on the corner of the bar. but there was a salty blonder waitress there so my best friend moved the bill out of her way and said "oh sorry". this waitress didn't even acknowledge her and gave her the saltiest look. so my friend says OKKK ACTUALLY I'M NOT SORRY. this impolite waitress turns and says "i wasn't being rude, you guys got free shots and i'm just in my zone" then cries to her manager Mark who condones her rude behavior and gives her a hug BAHAHAHAHHAHAHA really? first off, YOU didn't give us free shots and second of all, what does our free shots have anything to do with your offensively impolite, ill-mannered behavior? why don't you go and get more hugs to assure yourself of your selfworth. this girl does not have any business in customer service. why is she a server. we let it go because i wasn't trying to kill my birthday night We get seated exactly at 8pm by a super nice hostess Ella who turned our night around with a breath of fresh air of nothing but kindness and smiling face. Our server Kristen was the shit. She was so attentive and so friendly. Tipped her way beyond what we were supposed to because i just loved that she made our night so much better. FOOD: so bomb. too bad i won't return VEGETABLE SUSHI - $12 AVOCADO & BEET: Sprouts, Shiso, Soy Reduction, Crispy Wild Rice -- WOWOWOWOWOW. this was a different take on sushi and so surprisingly delicious. $16 ALL AMERICAN SLIDER: Mustard Onions, Aged Cheddar, Special Sauce. mmm, NOTHING SPECIAL ABOUT THIS. i can do without this next time ******* my absolute favorite ******* $22 LOBSTER POUTINE: Served on a hot skillet with Cheese Curd, Gravy Sauce, Poached Lobster. BEYOND AMAZING. so speechless. the fries were cooked the right way, my lobster so tender and the gravy boasts with flavor. *MUST HAVE!!!! the service on the first floor needs an attitude check but this place is beautiful and the food was a great surprise.

This might be the most unprofessional establishment of its kind. The security outside was accepting bribes from high schoolers to enter. The club itself was obviously filled to the brim with younger people (I would say 15 and up) who were clearly intoxicated past an appropriate level. These intoxicated children were grossly making out in every corner of the club. The music was bad too. Nobody wants to listen to chill gospel-rap music while out partying. On the bright side, it is a beautiful venue and would be better off as a restaurant or a location to host private parties. My host was nice as well. Also David Dobrik walked in for literally one minute but left after realizing it wasn't a good scene.
