"Imagine a dark, cramped, and moody bar scene in a brick-walled room. Well-dressed people sip boulevardiers and discuss experimental theater. No, you aren’t on the Lower East Side or Canal Saint-Martin, you’re at Normandie Club in Koreatown. It’s an excellent first stop before a night out in Koreatown, or a great nightcap destination after a dinner date for old fashioneds with coconut-washed bourbon and late-night booth canoodling. There’s also a secret dance club in the back on weekends." - brant cox, sylvio martins
"If it weren’t for the lack of winter jackets and self-loathing, you’d swear you were in New York. But you’re not. You’re at one of our favorite cocktail bars in the neighborhood. The Normandie Club is dark, kinda cramped, and full of well-dressed people drinking Old Fashioneds. It’s an excellent first stop before a night out in K-town, or where you head after a great dinner date for some strong drinks and possible extracurriculars in a back booth." - sylvio martins, cathy park
"Imagine a dark, cramped, and moody scene. Picture well-dressed people drinking boulevardiers and discussing experimental theater. No, you aren’t on the Lower East Side or Canal Saint-Martin, you’re at The Normandie Club, one of our favorite cocktail bars in Koreatown. It’s a great first stop before a big night out or for a weeknight 50/50 martini in a sexy little booth. $12 Old Fashioned; $11 Draft Cocktails; $7 Bartender’s Choice" - garrett snyder, brant cox, cathy park
"While the Walker Inn may be gone, Koreatown bar the Normandie Club is as good as it has ever been (and maybe even better), pouring inventive and classic cocktails out of a cozy bar on Sixth Street. While there is a menu here, the best way to drink at the Normandie Club is to chat with a bartender and have them come up with something. For those who want to stick to the written menu, try the bar’s espresso martini, or for something martini-esque, the Gibson with onion brine and Japanese vodka." - Rebecca Roland
"This Koreatown bar by Pouring With Heart is a favorite among LA-area bartenders. The cocktail menu offers handpicked spirits, drinks using ingredients the bar staff is currently obsessed with, and new versions of classics. But the must-get cocktail is a longtime favorite, the Old Fashioned with coconut-washed bourbon and apple brandy. The back bar, which used to house disco Damn Fine, will soon reopen as a midcentury cocktail den." - Caroline Pardilla
