Ecko Lounge

It makes you think you are about to have this great experience but once you get your food it is nothing what you were thinking. Not great food or service.

the food is not expensive, but the whole thing is also not cheap.. The aesthetic and the quality do not match the cost. They have a VERY limited and kinda sports barsy menu. the tables and decor are cheap, unfinished plywood and cork wood... which could be cool if used in a nyc loft style way.. but the whole experience came across as half assed and just flimsy and cheap. Not edgy and unique. It was a farcey and even snobbish vibe that did not at all deliver ! They are rude at the door... and if you are taking people there (which I was) it is embarassing to show up when you are sober, the lights are on and you can actually SEE the place. It was totally disappointing. Also the food was like japo-diner icky and they kept bringing us the wrong tapas that other tables ordered. Our waitress was cute and nice - but EVEN SHE said the food was icky. I was totally not impressed and my guests were not either. They act like it is the most VIP place in Hollywood... just cuz they can. There are MUCH better places with reasonable prices and cool vibes. I would say... go else where !!

PROS: not too expensive. our waitress was pretty cool.
CONS: Icky food, tacky corkwood fake japonese tables & decor. snobby door people
