Grandmaster Recorders

"Grandmaster Records is a stunning restoration of a former recording studio in the heart of Hollywood. The rooftop deck provides views of high rises paired with cocktails, beer, and wine. For those feeling peckish, the rooftop also offers a menu of antipasti like grilled garlic focaccia, crispy potatoes, and marinated olives." - Mona Holmes, Rebecca Roland

"Monday to Friday, this warehouse-style restaurant in Hollywood with a bumpin’ soundtrack has a happy hour from 4 to 6 p.m. inspired by aperitivos. Think $10 slushies, $10 Aperol spritzes, and $12 draft Negroni with $6 pizza slices and marinated olives to help soak up the booze." - Eater Staff

"There’s a lot of history at Grandmaster Records––artists like Stevie Wonder and Bowie made the magic here when the space was a recording studio. Nowadays, it’s a pricey Australian-ish restaurant where the music is more of a theme, and if you’re not interested in dropping money on caviar cannolis in the restaurant, head up to the stylish rooftop bar instead. You’ll find comfy dark green sofas, a bar that serves delicious spritzes mixed with things like passionfruit and cucumber, and sweeping views of the Hollywood skyline (STD billboards included). Consider this bar a chill spot to kick off a big night with conversation and a few rounds of good drinks." - brant cox, sylvio martins, nikko duren

"After sampling the food at Grandmaster Recorders, take the elevator to the top floor. Once the rooftop bell dings, the doors open to reveal a striking view of the Hollywood skyline, complete with the Hollywood sign and Capitol Records building." - Eater Staff, Mona Holmes
