Revel Lounge

Revel Lounge is on Las Palmas Avenue in Hollywood, at 1710 N Las Palmas Ave, a few steps north of Hollywood Boulevard and a short walk from the Hollywood/Highland Metro B Line station. The venue's own site pitches it as a lounge rather than a big-room club: food, drinks and music under one roof, with a main bar, a second bar it calls the Bespoke bar, and table-side service. There's a bottle list and a food menu of small bites and entrees, and the site lists hours of 5 PM to 2 AM every day of the week.

The house sound, in the venue's words, mixes live jazz and salsa with 90s and 2000s hip-hop and R&B. Promoters also book the room for one-off club nights, which is how a Halloween costume party with LA DJs ends up on the calendar below. Those nights run on the promoter's terms. The age limit, the cover and any dress code come from the event listing, not from the lounge, so read the ticket page before you go and bring ID if the night is 21 and over.

The Metro station at Hollywood and Highland is close enough that it beats circling for a space on Las Palmas on a weekend night. If you want a table or a booking for a group, the site has a contact form and an email list for event updates and reservations.
