This is not a bad bar or restaurant, however it hasn't managed to shake it's 20 yr old history of being a place for "mature men" to find / pay for their company for the evening. ...

Great Food alway's changed format to many times 4/4/2010

The classic numbers as we all remembered back with the first owner tony (2003) will ever be forgotton .Tony tried to maintain the reputation of the Name Numbers. By then it was to late and the beloved Numbers with it's classic and upscale shirt and tie look shut down. Carlos the second owner ran this place into the ground but not as bad as Moss the last owner (2009).Carlos went from a gay hustler bar to then go straight then decide that area needed the gay bar scene and flip flopped for a year and with along those moves lost the upscale restaurant and hired on a bunch of weho kids the place lacked management and then closed. (Again I was not surprised but also I would make most weeks over 2K, I was also pissed at carlos for putting the management positions to the wrong people)..the place was mis managed and then closed. finally some time later The new numbers opened. It took an hour and a half for food to leave the kitchen but it was worth the wait. I loved the cream spinach ..and everything else on the menu.(I ate there 5-7 days a week) I was not at all impressed with the new decor. The red carpet was gone the classic elegance was gone and the place was now a stripper gay bar with a restaurant ..a dam good restaurant .The place had more of a chance making it as a restaurant than a bar. but like seeing any instability everyone soon lost faith including myself as the place was on a land slide going down hill. straight bar..gay bar. stripper bar. it's like a radio station going from country to rock and roll to oldies. this guy really drove the place into the ground.A great owner but just lost sight of what this place really was and the cry for it to be here.I use to have customers/clients fly in from all over the world to come in and have dinner with me and to enjoy my company. who ever buys this place please put the red carpet in get some older classy waiters and please give west hollywood back there restaurant the town needs!! I guess I can operate out of eleven for now -The Tuedo Prince Pros: Great food and decor Cons: lost it's class more

Sorry - No go on this place 8/2/2009

The place was a great restaurant and bar to visit. New owners are homophobic and running us out of the place, including the great staff of bartenders and waiters. Too bad this historic place will be no more. The owner should at least drop the name so as to bring it no shame. Instead of an "H" bar it has become a hookah bar. LA and its following will miss this place. DG Pros: Great Staff Cons: Gay Phobia more

Exceeded my expectations... and then some! 7/31/2009

Numbers is the perfect embodiment of the West Hollywood dining experience. The decor is modern yet retro - a classic dinner club taken to present-day. There is a bar and a dj, but not over-powering - a very subtle and enjoyable listening experience. Good people watching goes without saying.We had Salmon medallions with homemade gourmet sauces (they are known for their original sauces), a filet mignon that rivals Mortons, Oysters (flown in) that surpass Ocean Ave's in SM, Sea Bass, Halibut - the list goes on. Their fries are better than McDonalds... They specialize in Cosmos (they have a huge drink menu). We threw caution to the wind and just kept chewing and swallowing all the way through dessert. All we knew is that we had to eventually muster up enough strength to make it back to the valet - and we did. Make sure to ask for 'Maz' - if this unique and interesting owner is there, he will surely steer you in the right direction with your order.... I almost enjoyed his run-through of the choices as much as the meals themselves. He is the quintessential restaurateur - he cares and it shows. Come here if you want a feast, or even if you just want to have drinks and take in the scene (being on the 2nd floor yields fine and expansive views). Pros: atmosphere, food quality, staff more

Not the place it once was 7/29/2009

Went in for dinner and we were greeted by a lady hostess HOW RARE. We enjoyed the food but we were very surprised by the atmosphere and how dead the restaurant was. The food usually is somewhat good but has also gone downhill. There were no nice looking men any more and we felt totally out of place. My partner and myself as well as any of the other patrons that once visited here are NO LONGER WELCOME. The music is so loud and is being played by some kid you can not even hear yourselves talk even if you were sitting on each other. Even though straight people are welcome here you are treated even better if you are a woman, The owner only paid attention to them and even bought them several shots and drinks when we spent over $180.00 and he did not even acknowledge us. So if you are a woman this is the place to go for FREE drinks and be flirtatiously harassed by the owner in return for the free drinks. Sad to see this place has gone downhill. What was he thinking!!?!!! Pros: Nice looking bartenders and we love the manager Cons: Gone down hill since they are going STRAIGHT more

Rare gem of a lounge 7/29/2009

This place is on my top 5 list. I've been here a least 3 times. The service is spectacular and every time I go it gets better and better. The interior is calm and modern. Each table felt private. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. more

I love numbers! gorgeous interior, absolutely stunning. you walk in and really get the feel of a rich atmosphere. great food, crab cake appetizer and the pasta dishes are some of my favorites. totally transformed from what it used to be, definitely enforcing a stricter dress code to keep the crowd classy Pros: AMAZING FOOD, extensive cocktail list, very classy lounge more

Beautiful restaurant, very modern but still a comfortable dining experience. Everything from the food (fantastic), to the cocktails, to the service (excellent) makes this an easy return for me. You will drop some cash on this place, but its worth every cent. The music is always good and nobody bothers you. more

Nice, lovley crowd, friendly bartenders, great music. 7/29/2009

Had a great time here after work yesterday with some friends. This place is really cool. I liked sitting at the booth, which is very comfy. I had a sip of a friend's Peach cosmo and let me tell ya, it was good. Shoestring fries were great. They had two flat screen tv’s by the bar that were playing clips of classic movies. more

This is my new favorite bar. For some reason, it reminds me of a place in New York., with it's chic furniture, dimmish lighting and good atmosphere, and a resident DJ. more

What happened to a great place 6/4/2009

Whathappened Provided by Partner
I have been going to Numbers for almost 30 years. My last visit, on May 29, was a horror. The music was the typical "club muzak" you hear in every gay bar in Weho. When we confronted the DJ and asked if he could play some Cole Porter or something classic, he responded, "Who's Cole Porter?" He substituted with some Dean Martiin tunes, but they were played at such high decibels that even the waiter said he couldn't hear us give our order. The place has changed for the worse. I will not be back. Pros: Nice waiters Cons: Music, attitude, women more

I recently went to the "new" numbers and had a great time. The staff is super friendly and, as always, very hot. It has the feel of a neighborhood bar, and has a lot of class. The food is always great. I highly recommend a visit. Pros: Friendly, attractive, and knowledgable staff more

The only gay place in WEHO with class. 11/30/2008

JuniorBleach Provided by Partner
I had been to the old Numbers on Sunset and I was very upset to see it go, but the new place is fabulous and oh-so-close to Hyde and all the paparazzi, so if you like that it's good too. The food and service is and has always been firts-rate especially the endice and mushroom salad. Numbers has a rep for being a hustler hangout, and maybe it is, but it's not at all sleazy by any stretch of the word, and it has far more class than the joints a few blocks west. I think it's better than The Abbey which I find to be cliquish and played out -- Numbers has the kind of style that will never fade away. If you are visiting the LA area, and you are gay, human, fun loving and you like good food, Numbers would be my choice. Pros: Food, service and atmopshere are great. Cons: Guys shouldn't wear tank tops in a place like this. more

"not so happy" happy hour 9/26/2008

beulla Provided by Partner
pleasant atmosphere, (after an extensive remodel), food is adequate, however, the happy hour, (or so-called happy hour) leaves much to be desires!! It's a shame, because it could be much more succesfull with the right P.R. person behind it........If your going to charge "Abbey" cocktail prices, then their should be at least a decent crowd of people in the place, or why bother...........Rots-A-Ruck!!! more

This place is GREAT! We went there for a friends birthday and the staff was so nice, the food was Great, and not to mention the waiters weren't bad to look at! The night we were there they had a DJ with an incredibly hot guy dancing on the bar. Meanwhile the cute bartenders were serving drinks without there shirts on! Can't wait to go back for another incredibly fun and delicious night! Pros: Food, Service, Atmosphere Cons: None more

Excellent dinner served by handsome friendly servers 7/14/2008

I decided to have dinner at Numbers after a business meeting in Torrance and a cocktail down the street at another club. The greeting at the maitre'd station was warm, and throughout the evening everyone was friendly and solicitous making sure I was satisfied with the excellent meal, the wine. I left after dinner to meet a friend, but came back for a cocktail because of the positive atmosphere. I hope the club returns to the high level of patronage it once had, because the staff certainly wants the clientele to enjoy the time there. It's a distance for me to patronize, but I certainly will do it again. more

The hottest boys in town! 12/6/2007

Ok so what if they'll never look twice at me because I'm female. They're still a barrel of laughs and always make me feel like a queen (not the drag kind either). My girls and I love coming to Digits to oogle at the luscious men and gossip about what they might be like in the sack if they were straight. Regardless the drinks are awesome. I don't know why everyone keeps bringing up wine...Digits is a place to party, not go to sleep!! Well, even if you aren't in the mood to party, there are romantic and classy tables next to floor to ceiling windows with views of hollywood for you romantic types. Great dining with friends as the food is A+ (the chef used to be ronald regan's chef!! Im a fan of the food even if I'm not a fan of the ex pres). Seriously, you gotta check this place out...if for no other reason than to people watch. I think I'll make a visit tonight! Pros: People watching, atmosphere, romantic, classy, friendly service and tons of fun Cons: there are cons here? more
