The cocktails were ok, compared to around the area, the staff are quite friendly and the place is nice! The snacks and food menu is good as well.
We made it for their very generous happy hour. We had a few cocktails that were well balanced. One had an egg white which the bartender shook forever to create an amazing looking foam and pattern with bitters. We also had tacos and a panini. The tacos were flavorful and we enjoyed the salsa.
It has great happy hour for wine, beer, some cocktails & delicious food.
Bonus: they go an hour later than most other places nearby.
Negatives: on some days you have to order directly from the bar & it can take 15 minutes or more just to PLACE your order. I did see a European couple ( tourists, I assume) who waited at least 15 minutes and were discreetly holding( not waving as rude people tend to do) a couple of $100.00 bills, & either the bartenders didn't see them, or they ignored them for some reason, because they ended up leaving.
Maybe I just don't know the backstory ( perhaps they were there before & really rude or something). Anyway, I'm going to try to go near the beginning of happy hour, to see if the service is a little bit better. If you are not impatient, it's definitely worth a visit.
If you just like cheap beers & burgers, I would choose another nearby option!
My favorite bar in Santa Monica. Strong and delicious drinks with more than enough variety for everyone. I highly recommend the Gold Rush or Lenin-Aid. Monday night is all night happy hour. Closed on Sundays but happy hour is everyday from 530-8PM. Definitely gets packed during the end of happy hour so try to get a seat early.
Great drinks, a little cramped but good spots usually get crowded!
I must be way too easily influenced by TV because after watching Mad Men, I find myself drinking whiskey cocktails and even on the rocks sometimes. With that said, Copa d'Oro has an extensive cocktail list--written on the boards on the wall, or you can even find more online, and they'll make it for you. All the drinks are well-made, fresh tasting, and strong, with my favorite being the "Ciao." Plus the people are fun since it's a younger crowd in Santa Monica. I've been meaning to go back for happy hour once my liver gets a well-deserved rest.
Don't let the "posh" descriptor mislead you, the atmosphere and setting is posh and intimate, but the staff and clientele is laid back and easygoing. Great cocktails, good service, a nice place to unwind especially later at night when there are less tourists.
Great happy hour quick dishes and good cocktail selection, the location is great with ample parking available. Decor is nice and service good, a bit busy on the bartenders, but prompt
Great cocktails and service. The one negative is the food. They should update their bar snack menu, as nachos don't do the drinks justice.
Nice drinks, good place for a date. Really cozy
