Rainbow Grill - West Hollywood

Given the history of the place, it was necessary for my visit. Lemmy's lounge was a cool place to hang out and the bartenders were friendly. Drinks were a little expensive, but it's California???? I was really disappointed by the little basic salad I got when I ordered a Greek salad. It was $11 and literally a side salad. Fortunately, my friend ordered wings and French fries, both great, so I got more food. I dug the vibe and the story... just avoid ordering the salad.

Very cool restaurant/bar. Plenty of seating both inside and outside on their patio. The patio has fireplaces and lanterns to keep warm. I went on a Thursday night and there was a live band playing upstairs. I only got drinks but the food that was coming out looked good and their food menu is extensive. They also have Keno!

Best pizza I ever had!! You know that cheese pizza on Home Alone? It's exactly like that! Also, the server escorted me to a safe spot after being followed by a stranger after a show at the Whisky. They make sure you are taken care of. The security and servers were on top of the situation. Drinks and food were perfect! This place is legendary as it is but their staff lives up to their reputation as being bad a !

Take a walk through your memories.. There is a little hidden parking area to the right of the restaurant (shares with a club). Dine inside or outside on the patio! Temperatures were checked when I went and masks were worn to tables/restrooms. There is so much cool $h!t to look at you hardly realize how long you have to wait for food and drinks to be delivered or to buy memorabilia at the register. The staff was very friendly and definitely made the stay fun. The front register seemed very chaotic, between all the waitress/waiters coming to run payment, people waiting to check in, or those waiting to buy merchandise. The front register was probably the worst place...great photos and awesome fishtank to see while you wait. Worth a visit, you never know who you'll run into.

Simple and amazing experience! It is not just a “place”. It is an experience you need to have when you have in local culture, music, and just have fun! The staff is friendly, the food is great, and the entertainment is epic! We visited the 51. annual event and will definitely go every year. It is a must when you visit Hollywood or explore Sunset BLVD.
