Not too great. They should bulldoze the entire city down. A really disgusting place.

My friend and I bounced in here after seeing a gig at the Pantages theater. Its a great little snug, they had a decent few beers on tap, my Guinness in a can,and cocktails galore. Its a tiny joint, but everyone, staff and patrons, were top class. Ill jump in again if I have a chance.

This was a happening joint for a reunion party. The staff was professional and courteous. My friends and I sampled a few wines and a few appetizers. The cost is to expected for the establishment, its a more glamorous type with the lighting and space. The reason I took off one star was some of the staff personnel werent as kind to a good friend of mine. Not sure if they were being catty or just had a bad day? Who knows. Its just a few people. Will definitely come back for another party!

The service and the ambiance was great, the flights were all well selected and well balanced. Our server was very knowledgeable and conversant about all the wine available.Pricey, yes, but worth it for sure. The plates are small but pack a flavorful punch. The setup is more ideal for groups ordering multiple plates and sharing food and sips (not for getting full). Our group all loved the 2010 Vittoria Frappato, Valle Dellacate (we each ended up ordering a full glass).

We had a drink and kept on moving. I was likely too sober to appreciate the vibe, as it was early in the evening.

Oh Frolic Room, where to begin. This place is a Hollywood institution, a beautiful cave of wonders tucked into the space just next to the historic pantages theater. Rumor has it that actors from next door would come here before and after the show for a quick drink.Speaking of drinks, theyre pretty spot on. Reasonably priced for the area, and the bartenders are not only great at mixing drinks but recognize locals too. The only gripe I have about this place is that its quite small and gets loud at night and on weekends. Definitely a must see for any tourist in Hollywood, and worth a visit for locals too.

I found this place years ago when I was visiting my friend. Once you find this place, you dont want to drink anywhere else. I had Pliny the Younger! I happened to have been there last week during Los Angeles, CA beer festival week. I also had my share of other beers.Frolic Room

Friendly staff and a lot of colorful characters hanging around. Went on a Saturday night and it wasn’t too busy. Started filling up as it got later. Good tunes playing on the fancy juke box. This unique bar is worth a visit!

I had a great night and staff was nice. Prices are really cheap and it has a nice chill and friendly vibe. I also spent some time talking with the big guy at the door, he was really cool, so was the bartender.I returned the next day and inexplicably they kicked me and a friend out after 30 seconds. I didnt get to order a drink or even say a word. The place wasnt even crowded. Of course, they never explained why they did that. Lame. I would have given it 4 or 5 stars if it wasnt for that violent and irrational moment.

Still my favorite dive bar with odd characters. Cheap drinks and sometimes tough to get a drink when crowded. Love the jiffy pop popcorn. Also, great place for a cheap intermission drink and a pee when attending a show at the Pantages.

This is one of my favorite place in the city. Cocktails are always perfect and you can always trust the bar tender for something special. Additionally the list of scotch and brandy should keep you busy for the years to come. So food, you ask, is amazing. Small plates using fresh and in season ingredient. The dishes are well thought with always a great technique and an interesting construction of texture and flavor. They recently introduced a prix fixe menu that this like a good options but I have been there only once since they introduce it. Finally the menu change quiet often so I recommend coming back regularly if you can.

Did not know of this bar, though its been there since 1939...its a fun, clean "dive" with relatively cheap drinks (especially for the real estate). Super easy to grab a beverage before heading to the Pantages. Definitely going back!

Love this local and historic dive bar with fabulous cocktails. You can watch the clientele change when the theater next door opens. Time capsule of old Hollywood.

Needed a place to chill while waiting for my wife. The bartender Abby was nothing less than delightful. Great place to relax and have a drink. You should be aware it is next to the pantages theater so it gets crowded during intermission.

I love this bar so I couldnt rate it poorly. However I just tried to go in for a drink and the bouncer, who initially let me in, grabbed me and said I was too intoxicated before I ordered a drink. I am just starting my night I havent had even a sip to drink. I didnt want to be combative so I wandered down to 33 taps where I was promptly let in. Disappointed I wasnt able to stop by my favorite Hollywood bar while I was in the neighborhood. I know its the bouncers job to ensure the safety of patrons, but this wasnt justified in any way.

Finally checked out the Frolic room with some friends last week. It is exactly what you would expect, a dark Hollywood dive bar. The staff was friendly and the drinks were cheap, as long as you ordered house liquor, the name brands jumped up a few dollars. Still compared to most Hollywood bars it was much cheaper. The decor is fun and retro and makes you feel like you are going back in time a few years. Great place to grab a drink before or after a show at the Pantages.
