True to most upscale nightclubs, there is selective admission via the guys at the door, so make sure you look hot enough to belong there. Parking will cost you $20 to valet and the mixed drinks run about $10-$15. Bottle service runs $350, but the table service girl comes over with nice sparklers and gives a little dance, which is a friendly touch and sets the mood for fun. As far as music selection goes, from what we observed, the playlist is a random selection of top 40 songs from every genre. One song might be E-40 and the next song will be Fergie, so there’s no method to the madness. As mentioned before, the décor is chic. The club’s website describes the style as “Mid-Century Modern,” with many soft couches as seating areas. However, if you want to ensure you get a good spot to sit, pay the extra money and get bottle service.

 

Area is no longer the A-List celebrity hot spot, but it can regularly be the hotspot for the LA socialite.
