"The spot formerly known as The Griffin - A.K.A. the bar in New Girl - The Moon Room is newly opened in Atwater with bar food staples like fried pickles and chicken wings." - brett keating
"If you don’t like the vibe at Moon Room, come back the next night—it’ll be completely different. This sexy, semi-hidden drinking den (it’s located on the second floor, look for the neon yellow sign) is the Swiss Army knife of Melrose cocktail bars. One night you might wander into a French DJ set with 24-year-olds chain-smoking on the wrap-around patio, the next a musical theater sing-along. We’ve seen Craig Robinson croon Madonna songs at the baby grand piano and comedians try out material for their Netflix special. The one constant, however, is the tremendous cocktail menu, which includes a cilantro-y margarita, a vanilla-kissed mezcal negroni, and our highlight, the Lynx Martini laced with pistachio and za’atar oil." - brant cox, sylvio martins, garrett snyder

"Hollywood’s swanky Moon Room brings a bit of New York and Paris to LA. Inspired by the 1970s and ’80s, the bar features black lacquer banquettes, a baby grand piano, and a disco ball. The vibe leads to raucous, dance-heavy weekends where DJs spin remixed pop tunes for the crowd of mostly 20-somethings. The solid cocktail menu goes well beyond the basics, like the spicy Andromeda made with reposado tequila, mint, jalapeno, pineapple, chartreuse, and habanero." - Rebecca Roland, Mona Holmes, Eater Staff
