Welcome to Jax’s Studio City, the Latest Vanderpump Rules Hotspot
Step into the world of Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright with Jax’s Studio City, the newest bar and restaurant on the scene in Los Angeles’ San Fernando Valley.
The Ambiance: A Nod to Vanderpump Lore
Upon arrival, you’ll be greeted by an outdoor patio adorned with plants and casual seating, setting a relaxed and inviting tone. Venture inside to discover two distinct dining areas. The first evokes a sports bar vibe with hockey jerseys adorning the walls, while the second transports you to a glamorous nightclub atmosphere, complete with palm tree wallpaper, pink accents, and intimate tables.
The Menu: A Culinary Journey
Jax’s Studio City boasts an extensive menu featuring a range of bar food favorites and tempting options. Don’t miss Mamaw’s Beer Cheese, a staple from Vanderpump lore, which we found to be surprisingly delicious. The full menu offers everything from Jax’s Burger to Jax’s Favorite Pasta, ensuring something for every palate.
The Drinks: A Mixed Bag
While the cocktails on the menu promised great things, we were left somewhat disappointed. The espresso martini lacked balance, while the spicy margarita fell short on both spice and flavor. However, we give credit where it’s due: Mamaw’s Beer Cheese was an absolute culinary triumph, living up to the hype.
The Service: A Shoutout to Luma
Our server, Luma, deserves special recognition for her warm and attentive service. Despite the occasional delays, the staff worked hard to ensure our dining experience was enjoyable.
The Verdict: A 5.5/10
Overall, our experience at Jax’s Studio City was a mixed bag. The food was generally satisfying, the portion sizes were generous, and Luma’s service was exceptional. However, the subpar cocktails and deafening TV volume during the watch party detracted from our enjoyment.
If you’re a die-hard Vanderpump Rules fan, Jax’s Studio City is worth a visit for the Mamaw’s Beer Cheese alone. Just be prepared for a raucous atmosphere and temper your expectations for the drinks.
