Li Po Cocktail Lounge

Great little dive bar with unbeatable prices. Highly recommend stop in for a quick drink. Heard the mai tai were also good, beer is $6 tho. Great service- bar tender Can’t pass up!

Okay, so this is a Chinese dive bar at its fullest, super fun unique experience, but also the service is a little weak. They sequestered us to a corner and were oddly strict about it. I would 100% go back just because of its uniqueness and to show friends something unique but alone I don’t know if I would come back

Crazy night here. Met some friendly people. I recommend the beer deals. I didn't love my purple rain cocktail but honestly I had such a good time at this bar. It's a great, social environment. International crowd, not too young (I'm 40).

Sometimes you get very lucky while traveling. My sons and I decided to get a drink, randomly at Li Po. We sat next to a man that frequents Li Po when he is in town. He made us aware of Anthony Bourdain featuring it on his show. I could tell right away why he was taken by this bar. You get a retro vibe right away. The kind of bar that makes you feel comfortable. And MISS CONNIE!! Her quick wit, style, and no-nonsense bar management made me her biggest fan. She will hit you with a sense of humor that is honestly missing in so many modern bars. Of course the Chinese Mai Tai is amazing. Go for the drinks, stay for the experience!

A charming hole in the wall with delicious Mai Tais. The drinks were really good, but (at least for us) it was the kind of place to just grab one drink or two for the novelty and then move on to where you wanted to actually spend time. The bar only seating made it difficult for three people to have a conversation, but we all agreed it that we were glad we went.

Li Po Cocktail Lounge is exactly what you would expect from a dive bar in Chinatown, and that is part of its charm. The interior is a little worn but it works perfectly for a casual, laid back drink with friends. The Chinese Mai Tai is the signature drink here and definitely worth ordering. It is popular for a reason, with a smooth and tasty flavor, though for me personally it was not too strong as some other reviews mentioned. Service was quick and the atmosphere was easygoing. It is a fun stop if you are in the area and want something low key.
