Shoo Shoo Baby

Good drinks and great service. A little loud but the vibes are fun, music's good (mix of upbeat and chill, was more hip-hop, jazz, r&b leaning the night I went which was great) and the decor is cool.

One of the bartenders yesterday was really rude! Black male with color hair. Plus size dude. Respectfully. I get that you’re busy but he didn’t have to repeat himself in a rude way! To direct me to the other bartender. It wasn’t busy and I could have waited. The bartender I was directed to was awesome. A true vibe! He definitely put out tasteful dunks including the one I had him freestyle. I really appreciate it him. It was my first time idk if I should make it back.

Poor customer service and ran by a self employed “business owner”- who rents to have his business there monthly. Their drinks taste mid, I seen a worker behind the bar throw up vomit thinking we wouldn’t notice and trying to serve us drinks while touching the glass cups with his greasy fingers. I will never come back here again!!! You’d have to get a whole new set of workers and management to overturn my objection!

Love the cocktails and ambiance here. Comfy seats, friendly people, romantic candlelight vibes, kinda similar to speakeasy but with jazzy live music, trendy/chic interior designs, and absolutely perfect for a date night! My date and I came here after our dinner at Joey’s across the street, and stayed until they closed (2AM on a Wednesday)! Had 2 drinks (gin sour and soho margarita) and they were pretty strong, but so refreshing! I wish they have desserts menu or light bites options to company the alcoholic beverages. Overalls, it was a fabulous experience to remember.

Really cool bar that we came across in DTLA. Really loved the vibe, the art (artsy creative vibes) and the space. They had a great DJ and pretty good drinks. It was pretty chill and relaxed the night we went - not a ton of people however we walked by on a Friday night and it was packed and looked like a great time. I will definitely keep this place in mind next time I'm in LA.

I came for a happy hour and had 2 amazing drinks for $8 each, one with mezcal and one with whiskey. The bar was half empty, I want to be back in a busier night, seems like Ana amazing place. As you enter you can smell something really pleasant, design is on point and the music is perfect - variety of genres and appropriate volume that is not too loud that you can’t hear a conversation but you can hear it well the entire time.

This place is great bar in DTLA for locals, a chill vibe with classic movies playing on the wall. Bartenders are great and the drinks are pretty good, the good DTLA vibes all here. There’s only one bar but they’re pretty fast. Get “Fiesty one” for a martini or the flight of tequilas, the atmosphere is a dark and inviting vibe.

We had a great time here last night! The young lady behind the bar made my fiancé a special sweet drink that she loved! They had a jazz band that was a great addition to the vibe. Will definitely be back on our next trip out here

We ended the night at this really cool spot. The music was nice and they had a classic film playing, too! We had a variety of beverages and I think one of us got the Trop It Like It's Hot and someone else got the Jungle Velvet. The former was spicy and sweet filled with Hornitos Plata Tequila, pineapple, Chili de Arbol, lime, and mango while the latter was bright and tropical and had Jim Beam pineapple, angostura, maple, allspice, and pineapple. They were all so tasty and the Espresso Martini was really good as well! We finished it off by heading to the dance floor and getting the party started! Once we went on there, more people started coming and by then, we knew our job was done. What a night to remember!

We stopped by shoo shoo baby for a couple drinks before heading to dinner. We were pretty excited to try out this spot, as the music and atmosphere were a complete vibe. My only complaint about our experience, is that the bartender told us they never received their shipment of supplies for the week so half of the signature cocktails they had were unavailable.. BUMMER! However, they make a mean Manhattan and the atmosphere here was top notch. I'll definitely be back to actually try stuff from their menu!

Discovered this little gem in DTLA on a rainy night about a month ago. It was a charming atmosphere, especially with the weather that night, as we were enjoying our drinks while relaxing to the sound of rainfall in the streets from the open air patio. Cocktails were good, and the bartenders were fast. Will definitely stop by again if passing through.

Chic fun cocktail bar downtown. We went after a movie at the drafthouse. It was raining so not terribly busy at 10pm. All the young ones from usc and a few of us old folks on date night. Decent beer list. I had a very well made dirty martini. They have some inventive premade cocktails as well. Really great DJ.

OMG! So I went to my appointment and then I seen a sign that says Happy Hour from Open to 8 p.m. Everyday. I'm like hey, let's give it a whirl. I asked for tequila drinks and that was everything and more I needed. Indo was my bartender and I did have the opportunity to chat with the manager. He asked how I was doing and didn't know me. His name is Mark. I definitely say, this might be my secret place!!

I've only been a couple times, but I like the ambience. This could be a cool spot to come to after an early dinner, just to chill and have cocktails. A nice date night. It would be great for a groups of friends or a romantic partner. After the second drink I was definitely feeling , but in a good way.

Popped in on a Saturday night around 8:30ish. It was very chill as it was still early. What I love most is that non-alcoholic drinks get a free refill and are tasty! Service was generally polite but when it came time to pay they didnt initially show us the full bill, only the total. I thought that was odd and it took a minute for them to pull up the bill to confirm the total was accurate. The DJ was definitely vibing despite the sparse crowd. It started to pick up around 10p or so. I'm glad my friend told me about this place, it was a great spot for drinks.

All the drinks were delicious and it was such a chill and fun vibe to sit with a large group of friends and hang out or pregame! Shout out to our waitress that helped us with everything! Love the cozy couch seating in the back!

My friend, my pup, and I randomly stumbled upon this bar and how serendipitous it was! From the moment we walked in, the bartenders were so friendly to us all making us feel like instant family. They have such an amazing selection of drinks that you'll want to come back. While they don't serve food, there are many options around there to come before or after. Just the best local bar with so much history! My favorite was Coconut Coverup but really everything we tried were exceptional.

Shoo Shoo baby is a cute bar for those who are in their early 30s and up. Its very clean, spacious enough to have seating for everyone in your party and the music is very tasteful. The bathrooms are clean and I did not have to wait in line to use it throughout the night. It's very photo-worthy and a great venue to host for some sort of celebration. I am not sure if they serve food but the cocktails here are made with passion and are truly a craft. I recommend trying the whiskey sour, they make a tart one which I love. Note: They switch up themes nightly so be sure to check ahead to ensure it's a playlist that is your vibe.

Had our post 10/15 happy hour celebration at this trendy lounge/bar in DTLA. Convenient for big groups and walking distance from the office. A variety of drinks to choose from. Didn't notice any food being sold from this place but there was a Taco/Birria food truck outside,

Ambiance: it's a trendy lounge located in DTLA, high ceilings, deep and spacious inside with a few sections of seating area with cozy chairs and sofa seats, good for large group hangouts, post WWII inspired cool vibes, they don't really serve food here, although you can bring in your own Service: super friendly and knowledgeable staff, professional bar tenders knowing what they're doing Drink: menu for both classic and creative drinks SHE'S A PEACH - **** old 49 vodka, peach, hibiscus, ginger, lemon, orange bitters, easy to drink, fruity taste, recommend MARGO #5 - **** hornitos plata tequila infused with cucumber, select aperitivo, elderflower liqueur, lime, refreshing taste, recommend Price: their drinks are generally in decent quality and totally worth the price, expect $15~$20 per drink for cocktails

The atmosphere is welcoming and fun. Great cocktails. Great service. We will be back for happy hour. Now we have a place we can look forward to going to.

Randomly found this lounge/bar while in La during a Wednesday night and apparently they have a good selection of drinks. Also there was a burlesque night as well.amazing place with great atmosphere.

My black coworker was racially profiled for bringing a water bottle in. She poured the water bottle in the drink that she ordered to water in down and she was told by management to leave because they thought she had alcohol in her water bottle. None of her non-Black counterparts were asked what was brought in their water bottles. Management refused to work with us or understand our side of our story. We were repeatedly told to leave without trying to clarify situation. Our entire group decided to leave because we were disgusted with the racial profiling that our coworker experienced. We do not recommend this bar to any people of color!

First time here to this 1940s style lounge, and I am completely enamored with it. I love the vibe,, the lighting, the whole hospitable, inviting ambience. Gabriel the manager invited us in warmly and shared about the origins of this cool place. The music playlist was modern instrumental jazz which was perfect for a mellow Saturday evening. We were there from 6:15-8:15 so it was not crowded at all. Apparently, it gets really lively between 10 and 2. I appreciate that it's a place to relax, socialize, and enjoy craft cocktails. They also host shows such as live jazz on Tuesdays and burlesque shows on Wednesdays. Classic movies play on the wall with the sound off, but no news or sports (people should go to a sports bar for those types of entertainment). Martha the bartender expertly mixed us some incredible cocktails. The favorite of the night was called Mutual Respect. It was an extremely complex and well balanced work of art. Martha is a master of her craft. We'll definitely be back!

Ordered espresso martinis for the night and they were great. Bartender was attentive, good music, and cool ambiance.

Great music! Cute place! Never had food here but the drinks are 3/5! Service is cool 3/5 Super cool spot to have a drank and hop on to the next spot!

Came here after the Dodger parade and it was PACKED. They only had one bartender (crazy to me) - a girl with glasses and she was crushing it. And she makes drinks SUPER fast and tasty, it's crazy impressive. She might've been like overwhelmed by the amount of customers because it was kind of bonkers, but you couldn't really tell because she kept order and the line moving. Eventually another bartender showed up with pink hair who apparently wasn't even supposed to work today (she said it aloud when someone mentioned him) but it was so crazy they jumped in to help. Great teamwork. Definitely will be back here!

I love the fact that you can bring outside food in and sit where you want to sit. The atmosphere is chill and the vibe is always right. The people there are always in a good mood.

Cute little place for a chill vibe. Def nice for a date night. When we went there they play classics with was a cute vibe. Would def come back and recommend to others

Visited last Friday at 8 p.m. and ordered two cocktails: an espresso martini made with their house vodka (they don't carry Tito's) and an Old Fashioned with Maker's Mark. The bar was out of Tito's and also out of oranges, so the Old Fashioned came garnished with a lemon instead. Both drinks were $20 each, and the espresso martini tasted more like a sweet liqueur than a balanced cocktail; despite having had many espresso martinis (including in NYC), this was the first truly disappointing one. The martini glass wasn't chilled, and while the view over The Bloc and 7th St was the highlight, overall the experience was underwhelming and this spot is not recommended.

Desirae held it down! She got us whatever we needed! I love it here! It was so much fun to see the burlesque show, was not expecting it!

It was great. Drinks were tasty, service was friendly, ambiance was fun. We went for a Monday screening/game.

Super cute bar! Definitely recommend if you want a drink to catch up with a friend or just enjoy a drink on your own. I definitely will come here again. The servers are super welcoming and we were able to pick our own seats.

Been here a couple of times. DJs are typically pretty good. Drinks are solid. I haven't tried the food here so can't speak on that. Diverse crowd of varying ages. Definitely a good spot for people in their late 20s and 30s.

I've been here for my birthday three years in a row... and I ALWAYSSSS recommend this place to alllll my friends. Idk how I never left a review. Literally love it here the vibes are grown and sexy and the music is alwaysssss on point.... and the guy bartender with the pony tail is UHHHH-mazing he knows our drinks already and his service is always top tier! So today we ended up coming here after a birthday dinner with the girls. Well first round at the bar was great with our regular bartender. 2nd visit to the bar, he must've stepped away, there was a shorter light skin female bartender with aviator frames who clearly wasn't having a good night. When I was asking her for 1 shot and a tequila mixed drink, I was trying to tell her what the drink was... she said she couldn't hear me my friend told her to lean in... she asked if she was getting snippy, we were so confused??? She said " I'm not serving you two FUCK OFF" EXCUSEEEE ME???!!?? What the heck??? If I didnt come here regularly, or like the other bartender so much I would've been disrespectful. She even told HIM something when he came back to the bar.... Clearly she was having a bad night. He took my drink order and I asked him to close out... But really the vibes are never like this, SHE is not how shoo shoo baby is, bc that was so freaking ugly. Totally ruined our night, and the vibe. Hopefully she doesn't have to many of these nights, bc this is NOT that. I'll have to make sure to update next time we are back... if that happens bc as an all girl group tonight... being spoken like that By another girl was 1000x worse!

I want to give a big shout out to my girl Desirae she is always making sure I am taking care of and wants to keep the atmosphere going.

When here with some friends, they were doing a burlesque show it was amazing. Our waitress was amazing and beautiful. The drinks were great. The ambience was beautiful. We had finger foods which was really great.

Love me some Shoo Shoo Baby!! I've been coming here for years and that's why I decided to have my birthday celebration here in August 24'. The reservation was for 12 people, and everyone had an amazing time! From what I remember lol The drinks are pretty good but the music is even better. The bar itself has a good ambiance but when you add good drinks and good music, you're bound to have a great time. The only downside of the night was the AC wasn't working so we were sweating like crazy which made some of my guest a little uncomfortable They had fans but it didn't help much. Regardless, my friends had a great time. They are now frequenting the bar themselves which I love because that's how you know I chose a good spot

This review is for a few weeks ago but definitely needed. I decided to come here after work with my coworker Russell for a few drinks after work. The music was great the ambiance was really dope. I love the vibes in here. The DJ was on point the entire night! The waitress that served us was really nice!

This place has an awesome vibe--inviting, warm, community. Sit at the bar, in hightop booths, or at the community table. The colors are warm and dark. Great music playing--eclectic, and there is giant screen that was playing a movie. The bartender is just awesome. I had a fancy Shoo Shoo version of an Old Fashioned. Zero proof options as well that sounded very appealing. Loved it. I will definitely be back.

The waitress was not well versed on the available rums. Additionally, the options were mediocre to say the least. Didn't even have well known rums or tequilas. The worst part was the bouncer used overly aggressive behavior towards an intoxicated person that was not called for. He literally kicked him twice in the head , instead of just pushing him out. Although the establishment might believe my perspective may be "limited" it is still a fact that the two kicks to the head occurred and were uncalled for. Bartender was rude and not able to show me my bill without signing first according to him. Definitely not coming here again.

Really cool bar that we came across in DTLA. Really loved the vibe, the art (artsy creative vibes) and the space. They had a great DJ and pretty good drinks. It was pretty chill and relaxed the night we went - not a ton of people however we walked by on a Friday night and it was packed and looked like a great time. I will definitely keep this place in mind next time I'm in LA.

I went for HH and had the CATALINA CRUISER. It was a great drink. The bartenders were great and nice. I wish I remembered their names. There was a issue with the cost but the fixed it quickly

Drinks were ok, very sweet. The only female bartender there was extremely rude. She rushed us to order and she was so serious and not friendly at all. She looked upset. I'm sorry she wasn't happy to work there but dang...we were one of the first customers there and she was still rude. It wasn't like people were waiting. I would've ordered more drinks but it just sucked to order from there. The only goof thing was the music and the ac was broken so it was so hot. This was a birthday celebration.

I went with a colleague after work on a Friday evening. The ambiance and drinks were immaculate! The bartender, Fernando, took the time out of his day to teach me about how to pair and drink gin. I'm more of a tequila drinker, and he also made incredible mezcal cocktails. I wish I had enough words to describe how amazing of a place this is. I'm definitely going back there again and taking all my friends and family so that they can experience this place as well. I'm absolutely sure all the bartenders are great, but if you find Fernando, ask him for recommendations. You won't be disappointed!

I came here last Friday night on a whim. The energy was really high. The crowd was between their 30s-40s. The DJ was playing hits from the 80s to current. The bar was pretty full, but there was a good amount of seating. I ordered the jungle bird, but I was not impressed. There was a strong flavor that didn't agree with my tastebuds. Overall, I was very pleased coming here. I would definitely come back, but would order something else next time.

We went there on a Saturday night, they weren't too busy and it ambiance is very cool, spacious and enjoyable with comfortable seats. They had a DJ who was playing music to match the vibe at a reasonable volume so that you could still enjoy conversation with friends. Their cocktails are great! Only problem is that their draft selection is limited.

Excellent cocktails. It's been a while since I genuinely enjoyed drinks at a bar. Came in for 1 round of drinks, but ended up getting 2 rounds.

This place was on our list since it was described as being a speakeasy. I don't know if I would say it is though - it has the decor and the vibe but it's missing the intimate aspect of a speakeasy. Went here on a Thursday night (12/19) and it wasn't crowded. Plenty of seating available. Friendly staff and good drinks. Would come back again but on a different night.

Went to DTLA for dinner and wanted to stop and have a nightcap somewhere. Luckily yelp helped me get again and found this super cool bar. My friend didn't know what she wanted to drink so she had the bartender surprise her and he made her a special peach martini which was delicious. The bartender's were super cool and knowledgeable. I was made a drink with a lime cordial which was homemade! How cool is that ! It was a quiet night in the bar tho must be because everyone is Coachella. It's really dark and moody which set a great ambiance. I mentioned I worked in a restaurant and even got an industry discount ! If you're looking for great cocktails look no further.

was there after the Dodger parade and the bartender with glasses was handling the crowd like a champ! drinks were great, vibe was great, service amazing!

Seriously such a dope spot, I'll have to come hang out again soon. A good place to grab drinks and just hang out. It's a small place but it gets lively and overall provides a fun venue for after-work drinks, a date, or a place to dance. There was a DJ, he was playing a good mix of music, some hip-hop, reggaeton, old school R&B. The crowd was fun and welcoming, no pretentiousness. I didn't try the drinks, we only had wine, but the drinks looked good. Highly recommend for a fun sexy date night although it can get a little loud for conversation. Staff was friendly, helpful and attentive, there was bar height table seating and some couches that people were lounging on. Small dance floor but enough room to dance without feeling cramped.

Hidden in DTLA, this fun little bar is a great place to meet up with friends after work and that's exactly what I did. My Eastside Drunken Knitters meetup stopped by to stitch and bitch while enjoying their happy hour special. The decor is very classy and the crowd was mellow enough for us to maintain a conversation without shouting. There was a DJ playing some R&B and hip hop which put a nice bounce to the evening. The bartender was friendly and attentive and obviously had some regulars that he was chatting with between orders. The food selection is limited, but they seem to be open to you bringing and ordering food to the bar. There were also two food trucks parked right outside.

I was appalled when the security guard at this bar asked my best friend to stop kissing her girlfriend. He approached our table and asked them to tone it down. My friends were not drunk or causing any scene, the fact that they were asked to leave the bar was homophobic. That being said, this bar was our third choice of the night after a series of closed bars we ended up here and I wish we hadn't. A bar that doesn't support queerness is a bar that should not be visited. If I could give 0 stars on this app I would.

Cozy & comfy World War II themed dive bar. Must have 21+ ID to enter. Live Jazz band on Tuesdays, Burlesque entertainment on Wednesdays, Live DJ on Friday - Saturday. Live Cumbia band on Sundays. Security on site.

An incredibly beautiful ambiance. Went with a friend and we realized this would be the perfect place to bring a group to just chat with and mingle. Dark light setting (my preference) and live jazz music made this place such a lovely time. Only con is the cool breeze making the setting kinda chilly, so check the weather before going! Super clean restrooms :)

Love this spot - it's been a regular spot for the last five years. Shout-out to Kyle, Fernando, Martha, and the rest of the crew here. Great music, yummy drinks, and a fun vibe always.
