Not trying to say this idea will work or that I think it is a good idea, but 213 Hospitality does own some pretty great bars. They definately have the money to back it up and they know how to make good drinks.

213 owns my favorite French Dip spot, Cole's, as well as many other upscale bars in LA and elsewhere even as far as Austin. Some of their places I like are: Cana, Half Step, Seven Grand (as well as Varnish and Bar Three piece) Normandie Club and Walker Inn just to name a few.

I have always wanted to check out Honeycut, although I am NOT into the nightclub scene, especially in LA. I have always wanted to see one of those light up dance floors since I was a kid. I would check out their new "tiki" bar with an opened mind (even if I might think it is killing tiki :wink: ).

Exactly-- and the other half of this equation is Proprietors LLC who are behind Death & Co. in NYC. We went to Honeycut last year because we love Death & Co. and it was a major disappointment-- nothing like the quality of D&C or The Varnish. The crowd was pretty awful too, but at least the Saturday Night Fever dancefloor is in another room. I'll give them one more shot, but was so unimpressed by the cocktails-- and the crowd didn't seem interested in perusing the drinks from the thick, laminated, bound-with-a-keyring menu either-- they were there to HAVE THE BEST NIGHT EVER! Not sure what they're thinking with this...
