A throwback 1940s era bar and lounge with a romantic and vintage-inspired theme in Downtown L.A.’s Financial District, named after WWII bomber nose art and the Andrew Sisters’ rollicking girl-power song. The menu features fresh cocktails, craft beer, and international wines served by the glass and bottle. The amazing staff places an emphasis on hospitality and service, in a fun and comfortable environment, with upbeat music from all genres. Please note that multiple reservations for the same party are not permitted, and can result in cancelation or separated seating, at management's sole discretion.
“I came for a happy hour and had 2 amazing drinks for $8 each, one with mezcal and one with whiskey. The bar was half empty, I want to be back in a busier night, seems like Ana amazing place. As you enter you can smell something really pleasant, design is on point and the music is perfect - variety of genres and appropriate volume that is not too loud that you can’t hear a conversation but you can hear it well the entire time.”
“Good drinks and great service. A little loud but the vibes are fun, music's good (mix of upbeat and chill, was more hip-hop, jazz, r&b leaning the night I went which was great) and the decor is cool.”
“Really cool bar that we came across in DTLA. Really loved the vibe, the art (artsy creative vibes) and the space. They had a great DJ and pretty good drinks. It was pretty chill and relaxed the night we went - not a ton of people however we walked by on a Friday night and it was packed and looked like a great time. I will definitely keep this place in mind next time I'm in LA.”
“One of the bartenders yesterday was really rude! Black male with color hair. Plus size dude. Respectfully. I get that you’re busy but he didn’t have to repeat himself in a rude way! To direct me to the other bartender. It wasn’t busy and I could have waited. The bartender I was directed to was awesome. A true vibe! He definitely put out tasteful dunks including the one I had him freestyle. I really appreciate it him. It was my first time idk if I should make it back.”
“I visited this bar two nights in a row during my trip to Los Angeles, and unfortunately my experience changed dramatically from one night to the next. On Monday (22nd), I had a great time. The bartender (a woman) was friendly, welcoming, and honored a $10 cocktail deal even after 8pm. Because of that experience, I decided to come back the following night expecting a similar atmosphere. However, on Tuesday (23rd), the experience was completely different. I was served by a different bartender ( man) , and after explaining my previous visit and the $10 cocktails, he initially acknowledged it. But when it came time to pay, I was charged $19 for a cocktail instead of $10. I gave him $20, and he returned $1, which I pointed out was incorrect. Instead of correcting it properly, he treated the situation as if I were tipping him, which I was not. When I questioned the price, he said the deal only applied after 8pm—despite me clearly explaining that the bartender the night before had honored it later and encouraged me to return. The attitude I received was dismissive and unhelpful, and the situation left me feeling uncomfortable and disappointed. I only stayed for one drink and left. It’s a shame because my first night was genuinely enjoyable, but this inconsistency and poor service really put a damper on my last night in Los Angeles. I hope management addresses this, as consistency and clear communication make a big difference in customer experience.”
