Liquid Zoo

Been coming here every since my devorce! Bartenders are excellent to say the least. The owner sometimes brings free food for his guest. They have a small pool table that never has a waiting line!

Still fuck this place even after «renovations». Bartender charges whatever. Prices on the wall are different than what’s charged. Not real cocktails. Not even a real dive bar. I don’t know what the fuck to call this place. $ 2 charge to use a credit card. Just fucking weird.

It’s the diveyest of the dive bars, but a Hella good time! The drinks are cheap and the karaōke is terrible! They have recently completed some renovations, but still tucked away in the hood. This place is a lot of fun and a great place to just let loose without the need to break out your best outfit.

Don’t be intimidated by the street lady population of sepulveda and the reputation. This is an entertaining local watering hole with multiple karaōke and open mic standup comedy nights. Cheap drinks and interesting people watching. You never know who you’re going to see, ranging from biker gangs to oddball hipsters to shady looking mofos with stories and hearts of gold (and sometimes not). Also just for a new paint job!

Karaōke Fridays start at 8:30pm! Come early to get your song in and ask about the drink specials. The bartender, Sarah Jean, gives fast service and is a fun and sweet person!

Small little dive bar I was there last night the bartender was great, unfortunately can’t say the same for some of the comedians, they are racist and don’t take criticism good. I’ll never go there again and don’t recommend anybody going there at all. There’s better place to go have a good.

This bar is racist and the drinks suck. We will not be back. That’s all…

Okay this is going to be a review to end all reviews. I used to go to this place a couple years ago. That was back when Audrey and Mia we’re running the show in the night time. As long as you were not a moron, and showed a little bit of decency and class, and weren’t broke because hey, it’s a bar and is there to make money, not lose it, you had a good time. I even pulled some dumbass moves (we all do when we’re highly inebriated), and STILL both Mia and Audrey forgave me and took my business (believe me, I almost lived there for awhile). Even the ownwer, Precilla, called me a «gentleman». I knew all the daytime and nighttime bartenders by name, got along with all of them, and basically had a good time with both staff and patrons. I enjoyed playing pool with Mike in the daytime, and customers/​bartenders/​owner would go out of their way to serve food (this still happens). Bear with me, my argument needs reference. So, they hire a new bartender named blah. Granted she may be nice, but she is the type of person to carry a grudge, as I will state forthrightly. In one of my many inebriated states (which, I have afforementioned, we’ve all had a few), I in all my wisdom basically told her to f*%k off when she refused to serve me and told her to cash me out (I was running a tab, which she initiated). She told me to «not be like that», basically wanting me to sit at a bar and drink water (who does that?). And the reason I was livid was that, in all fairness yes, I was slightly shoshed, but I was ambulatory like a bastard, and a friend of mine (female) told her to not give me any more alcohol. Not that I was drunk (although I was almost there, the buzz was fantastic), but she took it upon herself, without forethought or investigation, to refuse service to a known patron on the advice of someone she hardly knows. Let me ask all of you, is this the type of person you want serving you? Someone who is not only incompetent, but also is so vindictive as to have you banned from an establishment that you’ve frequented longer than she’s been employed at said business, and even the owner, who calls you a «gentleman» to your face, takes the word of an employee she’s known a bare fraction of a time to uphold said banishment? If you’re just looking for a drink, by all means, go to the Liquid Zoo. But if you’re looking for an establishment with some integrity, go somewhere else.

Love this place! I haven’t been here in five months. I love the good vibes, all the female bartenders are exceptionally nice! I fell in love with this place my first night! I wish they would move out to west LA!

This is a great place if you are into Karaōke and a place to hang out. The staff are very nice but the only problems I have about this place where s sometimes the drinks are too high they charge $ 2 for using a card and no draft beer every beer is in a bottle I have friends who do agree with me
Otherwise this place can be better

This place is great. I love the divey but welcoming vibe. There’s karaōke a few nights a week and the bar tender Mia is amazing: she’s always trying to come up with new ways to make each night special, remembers your name and what you like to drink, and stays friendly even when it comes down to business. I’ve been coming here for about a year now, and it gets better all the time.

Small dive bar that is in the heart of the valley.
Good drinks and fun people to meet!
Karaōke is always fun too.

While I agree with the common theme of it being a bit pricey for what it is, I don’t see why Bartendress Mia is getting so much hate on Unilocal.She has always been cool to me, and I’ve never seen her disrespect any other customers. She has a difficult job. I got nothing but love for her! I go on karaōke nights, as a karaōke host myself, I have to keep an eye on the competition lol. There can be a fun crowd sometimes.

Happy hour until you pull out your debit /​credit card… $ 2 FEE!!? WTF! Go to Gyu-​Kaku, cheap draft Sapporo’s ($ 2.25!!) I only stopped by because it’s close to home, never again. It’s like strip club prices without the pole… Ugh

Ok the 3 stars are for the great margarita the bartender poured. Audrey great marg. But she is a catholic republican who is not so open minded be wear. I spoke to a regular Joe a republican who was so racist it turned my stomach I had to go. This guy said about the immigrants at the dmv we’re all «Mexicans» be careful if your looking for a care free place this is NOT it. I gave 3 stars because the drink were cheap and good

This place gives dive bars a bad name. The drinks are watered down. I’m almost positive the top shelf liquor was NOT top shelf. I KNOW HOW IT IS SUPPOSED TO TASTE. Don’t even question them or they’ll give you more attitude than they already do if they don’t like your tip. That’s if you DO tip for being charged like you were in a bar in Bel Aire. The bathroom stank like it was were soaked in urine. THREE air fresheners didn’t help. But, one of the bartenders, the tall one, was very pleasant. The other one needs to work on her people skills. If they don’t rob you for the «drinks» you may get mugged in the parking lot
STAY AWAY!!!

Went in here because I was looking for an experience, love it! Cheap drinks, nice tenders, weirdly good karaōke! Nice mix of all kinds of people– just the right amount if dive!

A pretty dreadful establishment that routinely overcharges for drinks (always pay cash! Never give them your credit card.). The key is to avoid purchasing drinks there. Bring your own, arrive buzzed, or don’t drink. The prices the exceptionally rude staff will charge you will spin your head. It’s literally cheaper to drink at the Beverly Hotel in Beverly Hills, if you can believe that.
I still go now and then because my friend hosts karaōke there on some nights but it’s always a chore to find parking or get in the door without a homeless person hitting you up for spare crack cocaine or a stretch-​marked prostitute offering to change your oil for $ 18 and a PBR.
I once attempted to stop in on a New Year’s Eve but they wanted a $ 15 cover from me and my friend (who works there!). My friend thought the door man was kidding because HE WORKS THERE and walked in anyway. The idiot bouncer, who knows him, tackled him onto the pool table. Needless to say, we left and went somewhere else.
Audrey, one of the bartenders, will give you the worst attitude while serving you an overpriced beverage. Unless you’re with a pretty girl, in which case she’ll happily greet her while still glaring at you for even being in the place.
For a throwback highlight, try washing your hands in the bathroom. The powdered soap dispenser will remind you of elementary school. But at least in elementary school the staff had a reason to hate life because they were stuck with you for a few years. At the Liquid Zoo, the staff just hates you because you can leave whenever you want and they still have to work there.

Yes, yes, yes! The perfect little place to drink and karaōke. I trekked from my failed expedition at Ireland’s 32 (insert dramatic shudder here) to Liquid Zoo. Oh, what a difference!
Open and airy, which is lovely for a little dive bar, it was really quiet when we first got there, but 11pm seems to be their sweet spot — the place went from private to packed.
The crowd was super friendly and respectful. The regulars welcomed newcomers with great gusto. The bartender was attentive and adorable. If you’re in the area and looking for a dive, you oughtta swing by sometime.

It’s a dive bar. You just don’t give it 5 stars, but the bartender was a sassy, hot little Asian chick, she served relatively cheap, well-​balanced drinks and it’s just a cool place to chill and get a buzz on with a friend or two.
Don’t book your special 21^st birthday here, it’s not a special place unless its YOUR special place. It has everything you need if you’re going to a cheap bar… Except parking. It doesn’t get that extra star for parking!
