Great martini lounge for socializing. Incredibly inviting atmosphere - perfect for singles looking for someone in his 40's or her 30's. Wide selection of drinks with friendly wait staff and mood lighting that makes everyone look good. Wonderful patio with cushy seating yet room to move about. Weekends are hot with a live DJ and vibrant dancefloor. The music is your typical top 40 and r&b mix. I haven't had dinner at the restaurant yet but the restaurant side of the place has a much quieter and romantic vibe. I really like Padri's and would recommend it to anyone who's looking for something more low-key and less bubblegum 20-something-year-old feel. Another plus, valet is around $5 which is a welcome change from Hollywood and the Westside.
