The Bar/Lounge at The LINE LA

"Chef Roy Choi presents Korean food stylings at POT, while POT Bar features creative cocktails from mixologist Matthew Biancaniello"

"The octagon-styled lobby bar has a very long happy hour and DJs spinning on weekends"

"Both the lobby bar and Choi's restaurant, Pot, are sterling"

"The rooms and suites would have been just fine had they not been turned into artsy, industrial-style lofts, outfitted with original commissioned artwork, a minibar of Korean and Western snacks, and Baxter of California toiletries"

"When it’s time to hit the town, stay local at Beer Belly, a new American gastropub with a strong beer list, or Brass Monkey, the bustling karaoke bar that draws crowds from as far as the city’s West side"

"The minibar is extremely well-stocked with Korean snacks"

"If you don’t make it to one of the in-house restaurants, dine on room service courtesy of Roy Choi, but be sure to make it to the hotel bars done by the Houston Brothers, as well as the homewares design shop by Poketo"

"A wallet-friendly nexus for everything people love about the gritty but cool district, The Line has two restaurants from native son Roy Choi (of famed Kogi BBQ); a karaoke lounge cum cocktail den, Speek; a boutique, Poketo; and a late-night bakery serving Korean-style sweets"

"With the exception of a coffeemaker—there is coffee in the lobby—everything is in place, and for Koreans pining for Seoul, the minibars are stocked with a few hometown favorites"
