who does this? who's life is apparently so pathetic and dull that one would "put aside time" in their day to trash a place of business in some feeble attempt to fill a void in their apparent lack of accomplishments. of course i've had less than enjoyable experiences at many restaurants, bars, etc., but never have i felt the urgency to spread such petty and childish garbage online when i could think of so many more positive things i could be doing with my time. if i ever have a disappointing experience someplace, i simply don?t go back! what i found most interesting about "hiella?s" comments is that every review that he/she has posted on citysearch has been negative. yes, your right, i am close friends with the owners of the Velvet Margarita and because of that i know first hand of all the passion, time and energy that goes into even the smallest characteristics of one of the most top rated restaurants in the country. I guess Newsweek Magazine was wrong with bestowing the Velvet Margarita the top newcomer honor in 2005. I suppose the Los Angeles Times, Los Angeles Magazine, Ciudad Magazine, and countless other publications as well as the other sixty or so positive reviews on citysearch lack the expertise and insight that ?hiella? so gracefully celebrates.
Pros: decor, music, food, friendly staff with no pretentious "Hollywood" attitudes...
Cons: critics
