Celebrating BDay Friday...Suggest a Los Angeles Bar/Restaurant

[ThaHero]

OK So I'm turning 22 on Sunday, but that's stupid so we're celebrating Friday night. I've been to Miyagi's before, as well as the Cheesecake Factory(I'm thinking more along the lines of Miyagi's and not Cheesecake FWIW), and I'm thinking about the Saddle Ranch.

I'm looking for a place that serves dinner/drinks, has some booths and chairs. Not to club, just to have dinner and get drunk. Other forms of entertainment are encouraged(dance floor, pool table, tvs, etc.). Must also allow minors in since I'll be inviting my younger cousins(17-19) so they can get out for a change. Affordable pricing is good but really isn't a must, this is LA afterall.

Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks!

Won't Saddle Ranch check ID's? How about El Coyote on Beverly. Just go easy on the food, heavy on the margaritas.

EDIT: Another idea, the Formosa Cafe.

Yeah I wasn't sure if Saddle Ranch was 21+ or not.

We will be going during the dinner hours though so I'm not sure if the age will matter at that time at a lot of places.

Will look up El Coyote. Thanks for the suggestion. Margaritas are always good!

No chance w/ underage at Saddle Ranch.

Hollywood Canteen(Santa Monica/Highland), Bungalow Club(Melrose/La Brea). Make sure the underage get there early before they start checking IDs. Hopefully they don't check during dinner.

Thanks for the tip. I have heard of Bungalow Club and might check them out.

Jones on Santa Monica/La Brea.

Nice bar, restaurant area, booths, and everytime I've been in there it's been a good crowd. Shouldn't have a problem with the underages if you're going to be in the restaurant area.
