Such a treat. Drink was on point and you can't go wrong with Clark Street Bread. Bartender was very nice and ambiance was great, moody but not too dim. Will definitely be back.

WOW, what an amazing experience the music to the ambience, the bartender Alexa really curated the vibe tonight. The way she was very personal and the mixology’s knowledge that she had was impeccable. Very highly recommended and will be a returning customer!!!

Love this bar!! We’ve stayed here at the Adler hotel twice and went to Lily’s bar each time. Very retro vibe, great atmosphere, excellent drinks! Love it here.

Genuinely fabulous! I was lucky enough to have Alexa as a bartender, she was so attentive to me and my friends who are so indecisive! She asked what kind of liquor we were wanting and whipped up a delicious tequila based drink paired with a cheese (that I cannot remember the name of). We had a pleasant conversation and even were informed a bit about the hotel and general area! Overall, I loved the decor inside and the vibe was chill as I went on a weeknight. I will be back very soon!!

Alexa, was AMAZING. One of the best bartenders I have ever had. She was such a personal person really made my experience here at Lily one to remember. I will definitely recommend this spot to my friends and family because of this.

Since they reopened in 2022 this has been my favorite place to get a drink. As a Los Angelina born and raised. Lily’s has the realest people and the best vibes without the hustle and bustle of Los Angeles a.k.a the lines…. My sister threw my 30th surprise party here and I was met with the kindest energy by the one and only who made her personal Lucky Star drink for me which is officially on the menu now

Went to Lily’s on a whim and had the best night! My bartender Alexa was so sweet and made me a drink off the menu when I couldn’t decide what to order. The atmosphere was chill and the dim lighting made me feel really relaxed. I would definitely recommend the place 10/10.
