When Dinner Ends the Night Begins at Redwood After Dark

A New Way to Experience Redwood After Dark

Most restaurants and bars call it a night after dinner, but at Redwood Bar & Kitchen, the night continues until 2 AM. We created the After Dark to give you more time to enjoy the evening with your loved ones in Hollywood’s romantic atmosphere.

That idea inspired Redwood After Dark.

We firmly believe your nights shouldn’t end with dinner and a few drinks. After 10:00 PM, Redwood’s After Dark event starts, where you can have drinks and small bites to talk about.

Little information may cause confusion. So, let us introduce everything in detail.

When Dinner Ends, the Night at Redwood Begins

Hollywood’s romantic atmosphere makes every couple feel like they should have more time to spend there. But when restaurants begin closing after dinner, the evening can feel like it is ending just when you are enjoying it most.

That is where Redwood Bar & Kitchen comes in with After Dark, which gives couples and late-night guests more time to stay and enjoy the evening together. Instead of treating the hours after dinner as an afterthought, we turn them into another part of the experience.

The lights get lower and the evening takes on a different rhythm of celebrating the night and life with loved ones. So, we give you a second chance to stay in Hollywood’s romantic environment while enjoying your favorite songs and small bites.

After Dark is More Than Just Drinks

Don’t be confused by other restaurants’ culture of serving only drinks after dinner time. We don’t only serve drinks, but we also offer small, shareable bites to pass around the table alongside listening to Jazz.

Just settle into your seats, listen to smooth, soothing live Jazz music, and continue conversations without rushing home after dinner. This combination makes Redwood Bar & Kitchen a natural place to transition from restaurant into a longer night out.

Small Plates and Drinks Made for Sharing

After 10:00 PM, the menu of the restaurant shifts with the mood. Instead of copying other restaurants and bars, our After Dark event is built around drinks and a curated selection of shareable bites.

You can order a few things for the table and pass them around while enjoying the Jazz music and conversations with your loved ones. That’s how Redwood has made it easy to keep the evening going in Hollywood.

If you came for dinner and want to stay in Hollywood’s great and romantic environment, you don’t have to commit to a second entrée. You can simply change the mood with small plates to pass around the table and keep your romantic chats ongoing.

Music That Keeps Your Conversation Going

When it comes to music, it gives this event life. Music sets a backdrop that's lively enough to feel like a night out and gentle enough that you can still hear the person across the table.

Because of such a smooth and balanced Jazz sound, small groups and couples choose Redwood for late hours.

Who Should Come for Redwood’s After Dark?

The After Dark event works for almost everyone who wants to stay out a little longer in Hollywood:
