Random suggestion to management but it is literally too dark in there lol. I went there for a birthday party and literally every single person I talked to complained about how dark it was that you could barely see the person that you were speaking to. Perhaps in addition of a disco ball or some ambient lighting would help & also look cool lol. Honestly have no desire to return because I like being able to see lol

Used to play at the Roxy downstairs. Went to a private RSVP only party The music was great, I personally know the DJ and he's a great guy. About an hour or so, a section of rowdy rich kids started chanting "change the music"Long story short, the bouncer was able to be swindled into kicking the DJ off. And replacing him with mainstream trash Don't go here; this place is shady. I used to play at the downstairs room with my band and they were shady 8 years ago, they still are now.

Went here for the first time yesterday. The parking sucks, be ready to pay at least $10 for a parking garage. They don't open until 11pm, so don't get there earlier than that. You gotta climb quite a few stairs to get in and out so I wouldn't recommend getting mega trashed here. They are pretty damn pricey, so just know that too. A shot is $14, so yeahhh. Inside the bar is extremely dark, so don't worry so much about how you look. Most people will barely even be able to see you. The perimeter of the bar has couches to sit on, and there's stools at the bar. DJ fish was pretty bomb, he played good music all night. I think you are allowed to smoke in there because there was some chick smoking a blunt by the DJ and I saw smoke puffs through the night from others. The music got pretty loud at one point so be ready to be screaming at your friends to talk. There was no cover charge to get in.

Cool spot, bartenders were nice, the 9$ bottle of corona ALMOST helped me get through the absolutely terrible dj set lol. Like i get the idea of playing "millennial classics" but like literally the dj didn't play a single song from 2017 to now. Some chick who's friends with Halsey or something? She shouldn't come back. Other than that I like the place. It did get super fuuuu hot and I wasn't even dancing, just Milly rockin

Maybe it was just last night, or maybe it was something else. A few months ago I might have 4 or 5 starred this place but I think it was more about the party than the actual place.Last night as it was more about the venue than the party, I think I can give it a fair assessment. We came here and drank Zombies. They were pretty weak in comparison to other places."I feel like I'm getting my dose of vitamin C with this." the best said.As the only times I've been here have been for private parties I never had to pay a cover. As I drive a scooter I never have a problem with parking. If you've ever been to Sunset though you know its a pain in the ass. Given that last night was a holiday you could multiply that by at least 20.That said, I would say that for a private party, this is a great little spot as far as what there is to offer you once you get inside. Its got booth seating and stools at the private bar as well as stripper poles.. erm.. dancing poles & a stage.There were a couple of really grand parties here but the drinks sucked and the staff there is rude & they aren't subtle about it. I heard one talking about how they loved watching the stupid drunk girls because the tips were great. Not a horrible venue but not knock your knickers off kind of rad... though the pix associated with this review may make it look like it...

Came here for the Opus Label/Perez Hilton Party. The highlights were getting to meet Perez Hilton and to see the fabulous Jeremy W. who threw this thing have a successful night. The place, well, it's cool because it's got history and is in Hollywood. There are windows and you can see a bit of our beautiful city from up there since On The Rox is above The Roxy.However, the place was not too full and it was pretty hot. Granted it was an August night in Los Angeles but still. Nobody was really dancing or anything and it wasn't jam packed so why did it get so hot? I really take the AC in a place seriously because I can't stand the heat. Even though it is a small place the On The Rox staff were not that quick at clearing tables.There's a pretty decent sized bar in here.There are some cool looking couches to kick back on.As you can imagine, parking is HELL. You pretty much need to pay for it unless you are willing to walk a good distance and even then you are really lucky to find free parking.

Do you enjoy feeling inadequate around overly pretentious Los Angeles hipsters? Do you like hanging out with no-name celebrities? Do you yearn to get a surprise shot of rohypnol in your vodka redbull? Then this is the place for you. On the real. I wonder how long this post will remain up. It's no wonder there are several deleted reviews on this page. Ladies beware.

On the Rox is on top of the Roxy. I remember years ago hanging in this general area and hanging at Rainbow with my rock boys. How did I never know On the Rox was here? You go up a flight of stairs. Some $5 beer specials and some other drink specials. They need better ventilation in there but every old school venue is like that in LA so oh well. Good performance from Slant and Koom the Ripper!!!!! Definitely a good time and a very chill venue.No cover. Bar. Performances. Booths. Very chill. What more do you want? :D

$17 draft beer....even the bartender looked at me like it was wrong. I obviously paid for it since it was poured but come on.
