Seriously one of the best scenes in Ktown. Extremely friendly staff, fantastic daily specials, and a very welcoming ambiance. Catch the password on their Facebook page for entry.

Good spot in Koreatown for cocktails and bar food. They make a pretty great Vesper. There's table service for the booths.

Went here with a friend after a concert and blew my mind. Matt is a ninja behind the bar and all the single ladies are ready to party with you. The live band also played Led Zeppelin by drunk request.

Make sure you find out the password before coming. Check the myspace or call in after 6pm for the password.

Maybe all the people who are trying to get in each others' pants should be quiet while musicians are playing. Hit on each other between sets. Besides, it's probably a bad idea anyway.
