Level 8

Level up to Level 8 for an absolutely mesmerizing time! I had no idea this place existed till my friends suggested we check out Winter Hour, a holiday-themed set up of snow-globe tables, snow bubbles, festive cocktails and s'mores-making at the fire pits. GA tickets were pricey at $40, but it came with a cranberry margarita that was pretty good. Fortunately, there was plenty of seating when we were there around 8pm on a Saturday night. The mystique carousel bar is hypnotizing. Nice city views and I loved walking around to check out the other restaurants and bars. I definitely want to return to Mr. Wanderlust, the jazz bar with Lyra dancer, Lucky Mizu for some hot pot and Que Bárbaro for some Latin fusion. The decor and themes of these places are breathtaking! Hope the food is just as remarkable. Parking in the building is $25 with validation. There is street parking and parking lots for a little cheaper in the area as well.

If you are staying in the Moxy or just happen to be near the convention center definitely check out Level 8. There is truly something for everyone! Such a cool concept with a variety of vibes. Variety of food, music and ambiance. I wish I would have actually been able to visit all 8, but only made it to Que Barbaro and Mr. Wanderlust. It's a show as soon as you walk in on the street level to the elevators with different graphics on the walls playing as you walk in. At Que Barbaro we claimed our free cocktail at the bar that you received when staying at the Moxy. It was Sunday and pretty slow, but such a beautiful ornate decor it had. Loved the chandelier. Another Wednesday we came for cocktails after dinner at Mr. Wanderlust. The entrance had a lovely dancer from the ceiling spinning around sitting on a hoop. Soon we were surprised by gorgeous singing pianist that came out of the wall. Later there were two live sings in stage and another appearance by the pianist, but this time she had a dancer in her piano. Such a fun time! All the staff were very kind and serving us with a smile.

This place was absolute chaos in the best way possible LOL. We were staying right next door at the Moxy and saw a ton of people entering this Level 8 building so decided to check it out and the concept is awesome. Love that it's a ton of different themed bars in one building because there's really something for everyone! We started with Golden Hour that had a gorgeous carousel bar and pool. Very Instagram worthy but was a little chill for us so we checked out the other bars. Mr Wanderlust had a cute library feel and we snapped some pics there and then discovered our favorite.... Sinners Y Santos! This one looked like a club from outside so I was kind of expecting to have to pay cover but luckily it was free entry! Sinners Y Santos was such a fun mix of 19th central cathedral vibes with the ornate glasswork and chandeliers you'd see in that era but also a bumpin club with people dancing on tables AND in the next room above the bar area was a wrestling ring that had actual live wrestlers doing a show and pyrotechnics?! I mean WHAT?! Apparently it was a nod to El Santo a Mexican luchador and folk hero... what a fun concept!!! We had so much fun at this bar before walking next door to our hotel to pass out!

Just next level! You will not be disappointed. This place is lively and stylish. The food was appetizing. The staff was helpful at all times.Make sure you visit the rooftop bar!

I celebrated my birthday at level eight and it was a divine evening with friends. A few of my friends also worked there and they together put on the best evening for me. I didn't get to try too much of the food, but I would like to come back for a different experience next time.

We had a wonderful time at Winter Hour! The atmosphere was charming and there were great photo spots, which was a big plus for us photography lovers. Plus, there was a magical snowfall every hour, creating the perfect winter wonderland atmosphere. The DJ kept the energy up with great music, making the evening even more enjoyable. We also loved the sweet treats like marshmallows and other goodies, which added to the good vibes. This is a fantastic place for those who want to enjoy a unique holiday experience with great vibes and photo-worthy moments!

I made online reservations for Golden hour for my birthday. What everyone should know is that golden hour is the rooftop bar that everyone sees online. To sit, you'll have to pay for a table. If you're like us and plan on spending a bit, a table works! Otherwise know that there are no tables for everyone to generally sit. We had food from the food truck while we were at Golden hour. Tacos were good! The rooftop is elegant and the vibes were there with awesome music.When we tried to enter the club(church theme) we were told it was $200 to get in. We mentioned that we just spent a crazy amount at Golden hour so they let us in. Music could have been better and it was just your typical bar. There are many other things to experience at Level 8. Do some research and make reservations ahead of time.

I highly recommend this place if you're in downtown LA. It's a playground for adults. I love all the twist and turns. It's like you're in one spot and end up in another space full of wonders. The pool area was my favorite. Drinks were well prepared, and the lounging chairs were comfortable as well.I went to almost restaurant and sampled their menu and was well pleased. I believe on Tuesday and Thursday nights they have live music and they were great. Again if you're in downtown LA and looking for a chill spot. This is it.

BE CAREFUL AT THE SINNERS LOUNGE! They charged us you $150 to get in and say just order $150 worth of drinks but ignore you when ordering drinks, and once you order, you are stuck with a $250 tab for well drinks and they don't want to close your tab. The concept of this location is nice but it's poor and money hungry traps like this that shut off establishments. BE VERY CAREFUL!

This place should be called LEVEL 2 because that's the highest rating it's getting from me right now. Apparently, there's a dress code to go upstairs? I walked in earlier and there was no issue! All I wanted was to grab tacos at the Moxy's food truck on this level and people gave me a hard time. It's ridiculous to shame customers! I literally saw some people going upstairs with hardly anything on and heading to the bar like that. Meanwhile I have a button-up shirt on and people are giving me looks, so stupid. It's a shame that people don't know how to dress anymore. This is a vacation hotel, and it felt like a prison at points. Level 8 also has poor signage and a confusing set-up, all the restaurants on the level are mashed together and you'll never guess where one ends and another begins. Also, I came right at opening and NO one was ready. All the restaurants were unattended and I was forced to wait another hour. Level 8 does not stick to its scheduled business hours. The only reason I'm not going to totally hate on this place is because of the tacos I had at the food truck. They tasted great, but weren't worth the battle. I will NOT be recommending this place to anyone.
