The Lounge at Ugo

Excellent service with very attentive and friendly waiters. Really low lighting, sophisticated, romantic vibe and decor. I normally only drink wine but I had a couple cocktails and they were excellent, not sweet like I asked, cucumber and ginger. Definitely recommend going here

Only had cocktails in the lounge but the ginger cucumber martinis are delicious- not too sweet at all. The servers are really friendly and I love the ambiance, low lighting, comfy seats, very intimate

What a great find! First time in and felt like a regular. Great spot for classy cocktails and good conversation. Shout out to Bryce for making our night. We will be back for sure! Missed the happy hour but half off drinks until 7? Count me in!

Always have pretty good experiences here! Their happy hour is great. Cocktails are pretty standard. Bartenders are friendly, and all around good vibes.

Good Italian food. Homemade fresh mozzarella. Vegan minestrone. Lots of lactovetetarian food. Delicious desserts.

I was recommended and ordered the crimes of passion cocktail. My friend ordered the strawberry lychee martini. The cocktails were absolutely delicious, and the vibes were immaculate. Great music as well!

Food was so good, homemade pesto and the pasta bolognese sauce was delicious everything tasta like home. The bruschette were good but so little. The server was so kind. We were 3 adults and 2 kids all ofnus enjoy Ugo trattoria. Absolutely recommended 👌

Went during happy hour and I understand waiting for a drink but 30 minutes for two cocktails is next level. Food was decent but never got into ordering mains bc of the drink delay. And then the drinks weren’t great so overall a neat place aesthetic wise and probably food wise but I recommend sitting inside the restaurant and not the lounge maybe.

I rented out The Lounge for my husband's 50th birthday party this last weekend, and could not be more thrilled with how things went! The event manager and I had a very productive back-and-forth via email to make sure all the little details were just right - what kinds of food, the drink package, the music, and then they executed perfectly! Our bartenders Gunnar and Moses kept everyone's drinks full all night long, and treated us like royalty. Everyone loved the space, drinks and food - smiles all around all night long. Thank you to the whole staff for making this such an incredible event for us! Would recommend anyone who needs an event space for 40-45 people, this place is amazing!

I just found my new favorite neighborhood haunt! My friends and I finally made our way to The Lounge, which is located at the back of Ugo restaurant. This cozy yet chic spot what's the perfect place for us to make a pit stop after our dinner down the road. Once we got there we were definitely excited to see that they have a late night happy hour which we definitely be taking advantage of at a future date. But the main reason we came by is that one of our friends is a big fan of espresso martinis and on yelp, this place came up with number one as an option for us to check out and it did not disappoint! 10/10 for their espresso martinis (made by their incredible bartender Moses). We ordered 2 rounds! Our server Emma was also fantastic...she was attentive and friendly. Also we ordered some late night desserts which I already knew about they wer known for, but we went for some of their tiramisu and gelato... Which definitely was a great way to end the night.

There weren't many people when we came in. We could sit anywhere. W operated indoor setting at a corner booth. It can sit 6. They did ask us if the bar started getting full would we mind sharing the space. Of course we said no we didn't. My Martini was ok, I tasted more lychee than strawberry. It was a bit tart. The old fashioned was good. The Ricotta crostini was good, the only thing with this dish is that the bread was still soft and not fully toasted. The flavor was there, a bit sweet, but the green apples balances the flavors. The pistachios were a nice touch. The shrimp scampi was good. Only 4 shrimp with the serving though. It was buttery with a barely there kick. It would have been nice to have a small side of bread to accompany it. The service was good. I did see the whole team help each other, including the mixologists.

Great hidden spot at the back of Ugo in downtown Culver. There are lots of spots to choose from in Culver. Loved that this place was quiet and a little hidden so it wasn't packed, still had enough people that it didn't feel empty though. Drinks were good, but wish there had been a few more options of cocktails. Server was friendly. Didn't get a chance to try any of the food, just a late night stop for a drink.

Absolutely my favorite bar in Downtown Culver, and the happy hour is amazing! Love the Lounge! :)

Food was delicious. Servers were friendly and helped my group and I order really good drinks. The energy at this location was amazing.

Stopped by for a drink... or a few. Greeted by the host who suggested we quickly make our way back to The Lounge and catch the last few minutes of happy hour, and so we did! Weeknight, not too busy, took a booth and the bartender quickly came out from behind the bar to take our order. Friendly and attentive, we asked that he surprise us, to which he responded: I got you . Nice, cozy, trendy vibes. Drinks were great! Next time, we're coming back to dine at the adjacent restaurant Ugo.

The security guard harassed and threatened me for no reason Never felt so unsafe He justified his behavior based on cultural differences but it's ultimately racism . It was personal and unprofessional He made it clear that he's from east LA Paid the bill and drinks are a grip Never felt so disrespected and shamed ever.

Happy is great during the week. I just went on Labor Day with a friend of mine for the happy hour. I wanted a place to sit outside low-key comfortable and I can just catch up with my friend, and this was the perfect place. The reviews helped. Nicolas our waiter was so great and attentive and made sure my dietary needs were met. The drinks lychee martini + happy hour food menu had great items. I got the Figo pizza, portobello fries, calamari and shrimp scampi all delicious . Will definitely go again and finished it off with a bottle of presecco

Small lounge in the back of Ugo. We were looking for a good cocktail place and found it! Delicious and unique cocktails with some great bites to snack on in a nice atmosphere. What more could you want! The outdoor patio area is really nice too. Had a blast and will be going back

Moses is the best bartender in town!!! He is someone I can trust to recommend the best drinks! He is a jack of all trades!

Happy hour everyday, 5 to 8pm, even on a Sunday. How can you not like that. Located in downtown Culver City. There's parking somewhere. The ambiance was nice. Music playing but not loud so you can still enjoy a conversation. There's outdoor seating, which is great on a hot night. Happy Hour is only 50% off some cocktail drinks, which is good because normally it would run you about $18 a drink to start. We didn't order any food so cannot comment on that. The bartender was cool but only ordered from him. I didn't have a whole conversation with him. We got there right when happy hour started so there was only one group of girls sitting outside and inside was empty. It was perfect to lounge and talk.

Great spot for happy hour! 5-8pm, 50% off cocktails. Lots of great drink options, cute outdoor patio. Was busy on a Friday night but we were still able to find a table! Very friendly staff as well!

Great happy hour and a super chill place to sit on the patio and enjoy a cocktail during the week!

AMBIENCE: (4/5) - The inside bar is pretty. I personally love the layout of square bars since I feel that no matter which direction you're able to see the bartenders do their thing. There were some lounge chairs located on the sides of the bar too for a more intimate setting for those with slightly larger groups - Overall crowd seems to be young working-age adults, not too old to make you feel the place might not be as hip as you'd hope but not too young to make you feel like you're suddenly the old grandma in the group of kiddos trying to drink their way through college - Music was chill lounge vibes that you can bob your head to while relaxing on the sofas which changed into more "lets go out OUT" tonight clubbing beats as it got later - We sat on the outside by the fire place which was my favorite part of the whole lounge. They had yellow lights overhanging the tops of tall plants that reach the sky. The sofas there were extra comfy and they had 2 fire places with a heater to keep us warm on this cold front we're having SERVICE: (4/5) - Greeted immediately with a smile and was told we could sit anywhere we'd like - Took awhile for any one to come to us with a menu. Not sure if we were supposed to go up to the bar ourselves to ask for one or if it's more table service FOOD/DRINKS: (4/5) - 20th Century (4/5) = okay on the strength of the liquor in there, not too strong that it made me make a face being slapped by the alc but not too weak that I had to question if there was any there at all. It was refreshing & citrusy, everything that I'd expect from a gin based cocktail. Only thing that didn't fully earn the 5/5 is that the flavors weren't anything extremely renovating or original that I haven't tried any where else OVERVIEW: (4/5) - Would come here again. Good vibes and very pretty to sit outside with the fireplace - Drinks could be just the tinsy bit stronger imo but nothing that made me feel like I had to bring up to the bartender - 50% off all cocktails until March! I feel like it was worth it for a drink at the original price, let alone now! - No whiskey based cocktails on the menu right now which both my friend and I thought was odd since cocktail menus usually hit each liquor once to please anyone that might walk through the door. My friend likes whiskey the most and didn't drink much other liquor but they were more than happy to accommodate her with any whiskey cocktail she'd like. Hopefully once they've had time after their grand opening to tweak the menu a bit and cover all their bases

I LOVE this place! Moses is my absolute favorite person there! I decided to take myself on a date and Moses took great care of me!! Everything he suggested was delicious! I enjoyed it so much that i brought my boyfriend 3 days later THEN i brought my sister and 6 others yesterday to celebrate her new job! Everyone loved Moses as much as I do! Angelica was training and she was awesome! I'd love to mention my waitress I had Sunday but i sadly can't remember her name. I'll get her name and edit this

Outstanding drinks and very good food!! Bartenders are on top of it. Great bar area and outdoor seating as well. Crime of Passion and Peachy Life are fantastic. Too it off with the Espresso Martini and you have a good night! Shout out to bartenders Emma, Gunner and Moses!!

I went with a friend for happy hour. They advertised 50% off for happy hour. Well, we got charged full price. Not cool!!! My first time there and they went big. We ordered at 6:45pm. We stayed until 8:40pm. We never ordered past the happy hour time frame. Just continued our conversation.

I love this place! Grey service and great drink! I can't hype this place enough! Lauren made excellent drinks! And Moises was a great host!

I loved this place! The ambience is so great on the patio with the fire pits and spacious seating. Good service, friendly staff and special shout out to Lauren who took good care of us. Highly recommend for late night drinks and would definitely checkout the live music on Friday's next time.

Randomly walked by this place and decided to stop for a drink because the music was great. Service was fantastic, had a few espresso martinis, easily the best I've had. We have some cool cocktail lounges in Denver and I haven't found many here in Culver City so it was great to come across such a good ambiance, solid energy, just overall good vibes. I couldn't recommend this spot enough.

We went in for a quick cocktail tonight for my friend Laura's birthday. It was so much fun! We were immediately greeted and got our drinks right away. Our bartender Gunner was fun and interactive, making Laura and the whole group feel special for our celebration. At the end, the singer sang a song to Laura and another guest, who shared a birthday. It was so much fun from beginning to end. Great service, good music, good drinks, and overall good experience. We almost didn't stop in but I'm so glad we did.

amazing ambiance here it was so chill we loved the drink selection everything was so good
