One of the best gems of DTLA, this place was great! Jessyca our server did everything and beyond! Food was great, drinks amazing and the beer was cold as it should on a hot LA afternoon!

I had a great time eating here with the server Carlos G. who was very attentive and kind. Then, after losing my wallet at the restaurant, I contacted the number online and got ahold of April who has been amazing in communicating with me and getting my wallet back to me! I thought it was lost for good, so I really appreciate her reaching out and getting the wallet back to me in Houston. Amazing service by all - thank you!

Good happy hour spot in downtown. Inside is spacious with a nice retro style. Plenty of tables and booths. Some TVs over the bar to watch a game. Happy hour is 3-7. The food and drink specials are pretty good. Service was good. Friendly staff. There's street meeting parking but you might have to walk a block or two. It's literally just steps from the metro so that might be easier.

What do you do with an old Fire station? Of course, turn it into a restaurant! Not the first time I've been to such converted places, but the first in this city. Regardless, my friend remarked that the calamari here was the best he's ever tasted. Honestly, I can't complain. For what we were given, everything tasted great! The main course of Salmon was really good! Plus, the pita and hummus I got was great! So glad we could get an extra plate of pita too, because as much as good as that pita was, I needed a vessel to get that hummus into my stomach, because liking the plate isn't socially acceptable. Food aside, Desiree was the one who took care of us, and she was awesome! Me and my friend were celebrating our birthdays, and she came around with a co-worker, sang us a song, and added a candle to our cakes. That was really sweet of her! Ambience is wonderful! The repurposing of old fire fighting equipment, and parts of pipes for the artwork and the lights was really unique! It shows the owners have a vision and a dream for this place!

The atmosphere is top notch the food is really good. We we're here for Dine LA week and all of the service called out/off and unfortunately, our service was lacking. We were 6 of 8 guests followed by another party of 6. Our server took our order first, brought our salads. While at the other party they got their drinks and bread basket. By this time, two other staff showed up and our main meal was served. I asked for our drinks and our bread basket. Will I/we be back...maybe???
