Club Bristol

this place is awesome!i loved the vibes and the ambiance is greatthey serve a large range of alcohol from sake to shochu to tequila and morethe food is soooo delicious as welli forgot to take pics cus i was busy eating and drankin but our table ordered tamagoyaki (japanese egg roll), garlic shrimp (FIRE BTWWWW), takowasa (raw octopus with wasabi), and some type of cream cheese with seaweed which was also really tastythe service is top notch, everyone is super friendly and attentivei'll definitely be back again soon

No more beef tongue stew but they updated their food menu and it's still amazing! Plus there are pretty girls that sing karaoke with you so that's really cool. They're open late and the kitchen stays open until 1am! Really fun place to bring friends to drink, sing and meet people! Glad they're still open!

The girls and karaoke are a part of the place since it is set up like a Japanese style hostess bar. I have no interest in that but if you try the food you will realize this place is a hidden gem. they have great Japanese food and a very nice staff. I prefer to come eat sometimes with the wife or friends since it it very hard to find authentic Japanese for of this caliber for the prices they charge.

Yo.... the Happy Hour Food. They have this soju/oolong tea drink, its cheap, and it creeps. They also have draft beers and a few other drinks on special. The appetizers are ON HIT. The fried shrimp, the deep fried oysters, the chicken gizzard with mushrooms and garlic, the chicken wings, all are awesome. M favorite is the shrimp for sure.. Eat it head/shell and all. Prices are on high side (except happy hour) but the company is great. Owner is hilarious, and one of the most generous guys too. Very understanding of his clientele.... Will definitely come here often.

Drunkenly stumbled in here after dinner. Its dark and tucked away behind limo tinted windows. It was really nice inside, good decor and selection of Japanese drinks. We wanted to find a karaoke place to drunkenly sing, but this did not cut it. THere was karaoke, but it was odd trying to sing amongst 60 y/o japanese businessmen trying to get their groove on with some 20 y/o geisha.Yeah, these guys pay like 80 bucks an hour to conversate with this girls. Its called a japanese Hostess bar. odd. Yeah, better places to go to have drinks than here.

A group of my friends decided to come visit a friend and we wanted to check out the place. I've been living in Costa Mesa for quite some time, have eaten at the Wahoo's on the corner and have passed it numerous times on my way home from work. To be honest, I have NEVER even heard of it's existence until my friend told me about it. It's a Japanese hostess bar. The windows are blacked out and it's tucked back in the corner of the plaza where Wahoo's is. To my surprise, it was really nice inside. Really dark and intimate, but the workers there are super friendly. We just sat at the bar since we didn't find it necessary to throw out that much cash to talk to our friend. haha. All drinks here were $7 each, including shots. They also give you snacks to munch on while you drink and talk. My first drink was just pineapple and rum. It was really weak and not worth the $7. We decided to just take shots and drink of choice for the night: PATRON. Five shots later and paying more than I expected to, I was drunk and happy. :)It's not quite the place I would go on a weekly basis, but it's an option to go with friends and just hang at the bar.

Went here with a couple buddies. I was already a bit inebriated so it didn't take much persuasion to get me through the doors. I'm not going to lie, this place is a Japanese hostess bar. You pay hourly ($80), for all you can drink (not top shelf) bourbon, whiskey and beer and every 30 minutes a different girl comes by your seat and chats you up. It's not what you think, this place isn't some sort of brothel, or at least I didn't see any scandalous behavior. Basically it's a place where usually Japanese business men go to take clients, talk business and have some female company. Nothing really shady going on here, but I'm sure if you had a girlfriend or are married and she found out you went here, she'd be none too pleased. But in all honesty, a strip bar is much worse, IMHO.Since I was already smashed before I even got here, the AYCD took me overboard. We sang some songs (Karaoke bar), drank, and had a good time. By the time I'd gotten home, I was $150 poorer and had a mean headache. Would I go here again? If I was drunk enough, possibly. Would I recommend you to go? If you're single, maybe. It was an interesting experience. Just to clear a few things up, your group does not get it's own room. You share floor space with all the bar patrons and employees. If anything scandalous was going down, it was not in view of everyone else.4 people.2 Hours Too many beers to count1 Bottle of Jack DanielsTotal Price = $600

I was able to enjoy to do KARAOKE, drink alcohol and chat with cute girl.

I always have a great time at Bristol Lounge. Everyone is friendly and attentive. The food is good and served until after midnight. Not too many places serve late meals.

They have the best server named MARI!!! Ask for her when you come here she's the BEST.
