This is probably the best venue in LA for exceptional jazz, funk, and blues in a warm and friendly atmosphere. I’ve been blown away by the bands that I’ve come to listen to at The Mint. I am a live music junkie and this is my favorite place to go! More...

We played at The Mint last month and were very happy with everything. Sound system and sound guy are great, the staff treated us very well, and you can tell it is a professionally run venue. Definitely would like to play again! Thanks Mint! More...

John was AWESOME! He was flinging tunes so fast nobody had time to sit down. His rhythms propelled the evening. He answered all requests (except one for Frank Sinatra which I had previously forbidden) He read the audience really well and played our kind of music. Punctual and professional all the way. Great job! More...

Jack Broadbent is one of the most amazing blues slide guitar players out there. I was blown away. I am only sad that he didn't pack the place. I don't think it was well promoted. Loved the small venue and the opportunity to meet him and talk to him for a few minutes. A really great guy. More...

Well, if I could give The Mint 6 stars, I would. The service wasn't the greatest, but the venue was intimate and kind of sexy, they people at the door were awesome. They really know how to treat the bread and butter of their business. The waitresses, not so much. The selection of talent was exceptional, I only wish they focused more on one artist other than trying to squeeze in three artists in one night. But really, this place was the bomb. The bathrooms were clean, the building has valet parking, you can get food and drinks at a reasonable price. *If you're a wine drinker, ask for the freshest bottle the Merlot is stale. Still 6 stars, hands down! More...

The Mint is a great venue for seeing your favorite up & coming artists up close & personal.The sound was excellent.I saw Dalton Rapattoni there March 15,2017 finalist on American Idol. He was fantastic and was warm and friendly with the crowd and I felt this venue was a perfect fit for his acoustic show. More...

This is an old school classy joint. Good music. Seen Davina and The Vagabonds and 3 other good artists opened up for them so that was an extra bonus our party didn't expect. Good food at a decent price and admission was super reasonable. The garlic fries were awesome! Comparing to a old dive place in North Hollywood-Universal City I use to frequent "The Baked Potato", this place is kept clean and classy unlike the disgusting Baked Potato. Would return here to see more bands for sure. Cozy place with great booth seating and tables not jammed together. Plenty of elbow room and room for people to dance as well. Huge long bar. Waitress service was friendly and excellent. Free Parking out front was super easy on the street. Plenty of parking spots considering this place doesn't have their own parking lot because they don't need it with all the open street parking available. More...
