Description

This minimalist-styled drinking spot might be hidden down a narrow alleyway between two buildings in Little Tokyo, but it's not a secret for artsy locals nor cocktail fans who frequent the Geffen Contemporary at MOCA (Museum of Contemporary Art) up the street. Cute anime-styled hipsters and the culture vulture set alike frequent Far Bar to pontificate post-exhibit or dance off some steam to DJs (often spinning outside in the white Christmas-lit patio) or enjoy the whimsical drink selection. Highlights include: "The Asian Zombie," "the Far Bar Peppertini," the "Oreo Outrage" and the "J-Town Emperor" (Crown Royal, peach Schnapps, pineapple and lime juice). The restaurant next door (same owners) offers a nice selection of sushi rolls and Japanese bar food (tempura, pot stickers) to go with Far's fun concoctions.
