Editorial Review for Bar Lubitsch – by Michael Martin
In Short
From bar czar Sean MacPherson (Good Luck, Jones) and Jared Meisler (former Bar Marmont manager) comes this red-drenched vodka bar and dance club--a nod to Russian decadence. A crowd of Sunset traditionalists descends on the boxy entrance and into a Bolshevik-chic playground of elaborate chandeliers, Mao-red walls and a sexy spin on communist-era uniforms strutted by the staff. Keeping elements of its predecessor that worked, the dance floor and bar are still in the same place, albeit with a much more elegant design.

Insider Tips
Know Before You GoThe bar is initially avoiding one-night event promotions and guest lists--instead offbeat DJs are regularly featured. Still, weekends are busy so try and arrive before 10pm.
What to DrinkA list of more than 200 vodkas spills over with innovative drinks ranging from the Cucumber Mojito to the Molotov cocktail.
Look GoodLocated halfway between Boys' Town and the hip part of Hollywood, your best bet for area bar-hopping is neighboring Winston's.

Before last night, I went to the bar on a Friday with 2 of my female friends and we got in, no problem, no wait. However, last night (Saturday), I went with a group of 15 for my friend's birthday. We waited in line for 45 min-1 hr! It was ridiculous because the bouncers continuously let in smaller groups for no wait at all. You're probably thinking: groups of females, and you're right, but they were nothin' special! The bouncers finally let the bday girl in with 1 friend, while the rest of us stood angrily outside, until they eventually let us in in groups of 5. In summary, I was not impressed by the outdoors staff.
Cons: bouncers, line

Went to a birthday party here awhile ago. Had a great time. The music was good and so were the drinks. I sort of agree with that last review...drinks are pricey, not a fan of that but I'm well paid so I don't mind too much...and yes, the drawing room has cheap drinks and cheap women...prolly the easiest place in l.a. for a one night stand...
Pros: great music, vibe and drinks
Cons: typical L.A. nonsense
