I go here almost every Saturday. The bouncers are cool and the DJs on Saturdays are pretty cool. I have had no problems with weak drinks. Plenty of places to sit down, smallish but accommodating outdoor area and friendly waitresses. No cover, easy parking, rarely a line to get in. I have made it my regular spot and the bouncers and DJs welcome me and my girls every Saturday! If you are looking for something local but not too divey, check it out.
The food was good, the drinks are OK, but the service stinks. Our waitress not only got in one of my friends face, but decided she would call him a liar to his face in front of all of us there. Then she added a few drinks we didn't order to top it off. This place is cool just watch out for shameless add ons to the bill.
Great bar if you're tired of dealing with Hollywood. Sure, you'll run into people "in the industry" but for the most part, the Arsenal is the perfect mix of dive and trendy. The staff is incredibly nice. Go on a Friday or Saturday and expect it to be wall-to-wall. Main complaint would be the bathroom. One stall, 100 girls, you do the math.
