West Hollywood, Los Angeles · bar
There’s old Hollywood, and then there’s The Formosa—a nicotine-stained relic that’s been keeping actors, gangsters, and other assorted degenerates well-fed and well-lubricated since the 1930s. The walls are lined with black-and-white headshots, the lighting is cinematic, and the Szechuan wings are exactly what you need after a couple of cold ones. Whether you’re waiting out traffic or leaning into a long night, this place delivers the kind of history that hits.
Happy hour runs Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun, 3:00 PM to 6:00 PM.
