Flashbackz Lounge & Grill — Restaurant in Whittier

This place is a hidden gem in whittier.

For all those 80’s & 90’s babies. This place is for you, great music perfect place to unwind after a week of work. Great for a happy hour perfect to celebrate a birthday.

If you want to get a table come early otherwise you will be standing up the whole night. The place gets packed & no one leves their table. I love that their is no time limit on the table like other places, the servers know you’re there for dinner and later on to have fun.

I recommend you get a bucket of beer and a plater. The food is not that great but you want something that’s going to last you until dinner is over. The prices for the food and beer are a little high, so you get more bang for your buck with a platter & the bucket.

I went on a Saturday. To celebrate my birthday, Dinner time on a Saturday is from 6pm-9pm. After dinner is over the light go out, the DJ starts playing, more people are let in & it instantly becomes a night club, it’s a whole new place. I recommend if your planning on going dancing take a sweater or something you could leave on your table that way people know it’s taken otherwise believe me, someone will take your table. The best place to sit is on the high chairs or anywhere up against the wall. Don’t sit on the tables on the dance floor. You will be literally eaten up surrounded by so many people. Once dinner time is over. The dance floor gets pack literally no place to move but it’s fun!

If you celebrating anything any occasion they do let you take in balloons, cake & decorations. People are very friendly & welcoming.

Don’t expect good service after dinner is over since the place gets pack & they are very busy & that’s why I took off a star I waited over 20min for a drink & when the server finally brought it, it was the wrong drink, he still wanted to charge me for it. Pay attention to your bill once your ready to pay.

Other than that, I do recommend this place its fun. I will definitely be...

I wish I had better things to say or at least even experience. I came here for a friends birthday. When I arrived the group had already been there for an hour and hadn’t received much of anything they ordered from the waiter. A majority of their drinks had come from the bar. After sitting there for 20ish minutes their food finally arrived and it was the first and only time I came in contact with the waiter. He didn’t ask if we needed anything, all he said was “I’m heading inside for the rest of the night. Here’s your check, the bar is open, feel free to stay and take your time.” They were taken aback on how they only got one order in before the waiter left. They had to flag someone else down to even pay that bill. I had already had a long day and it was a long drive to get there. I was hoping to be able to eat, drink, and have a good time. But it just made me more irritated. I’m glad everyone else had a decent time, their complaints were only about the service. They loved the drinks and the atmosphere. The food (appetizers) they had been able to originally order were good considering it seems to mostly be a bar type of place. I ended up leaving my group early so I could get food before I had to drive back home. I wasn’t going to wait an hour and 20 minutes to get my own food here. They only thing I got to experience here was a great time with friends, I didn’t get to try anything other than a French fry and a sip of someone else’s drink. I wouldn’t choose to come back here myself. But I’d be willing to try it again if my friends wanted...

So if I could give negative I would. Yesterday (August 24th Saturday night around 11:15 pm) a group of friends and I went out to celebrate a birthday for my friend’s wife. It was about 14 of us in total the majority of us fellas are on the bigger side. When we got in line about 4-7 people were ahead of us. They went in when we were next another group of about 8-10 people got behind us in the line. The idiot bouncer didn’t think one of are other friends were in the front that is not on the heavier side heard the bouncer say to one of the woman that work there “go get the group from behind this group we are not letting this group in cause they are big”

So as much as flashbackz look like a decent place to go...
