I couldn't have gone to a better bar on my first in LA. Bryant was really nice, gave me great advice on beer & places to visit in the city. Overall, amazing bartender, great vibe, good music & drinks.

Nice variety of different types of wine/craft beer. Kind of small, but if you get here around 9-10 pm on a weekend there are still plenty of seats. (3 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more

The beer is awesome, and even though it may seem a bit pricey, it's totally worth it. Ask for a recommendation if you don't know what kind of beer you like.

Great wine at great prices. The bartenders were the especially helpful and friendly. There's also beer if that's what you're in the mood for.

Beer and wine list changes frequently, but always a great selection. Bartender Vanessa is also very helpful with recommending the perfect beverage!

Go for Croatian and Central Coast wine. Bring a lover. Eat tasty tapenade olive dip with crostini crackes so good it's worth ordering a second helping. Listen to The Big Chill Soundtrack on vinyl. Read more

favourite bar on the East side, across from the Echo in Echo Park. Unique Beer and wine selection frequently rotates, fresh apps, vintage music on vinyl, and a great local hipster vibe... Read more

They usually have an excellent beer selection. 10 times out of 10 I go for the Anderson Valley Boont Amber Ale, but they have other good beers too. Sometimes they have Craftsman!

Origami Vinyl's Tuesday Vinyl Night are a delight. Sign up, bring records, chill hard. The cheese platter is a must, the shelled walnuts is a pass.

The beer at the top of the list is usually the most expensive, but also the most unique and difficult to find in LA.

I like that they have a record player playing vinyl instead of an ipod.

Luis MendozaJune 13, 2012
Tuesday nights it's Origami Vinyl's Record Club. Being vinyl and they'll spin it! Sign-up a week before to get a complimentary drink ticket. 45" night is the best and super fun. Get into it!

Go to city sip down the street. El prado's only plus is its proximity to the echo. Wine and beer selection severely lacking, decor cramped and uninspired, staff useless.
