Flaming Saddles

Second club I have ever been in my whole life, and I liked it! There are lots of hot dancers! Free admission, drink is a little bit pricey but it was affordable! People there are nice! The thing I like best is their second floor, you can go up and watch the shows from there!

Flaming Saddles continues to be a fun and exciting place to relax and have a good time.
All of the staff is friendly and interested in making your experience the best.
I also recommend this great place to any group looking to have a private party or event.

Couldn’t get over the cross between cowboy look of the dancers vs. the dance music they were playing. I think if I’d a been more intoxicated I would have liked it better. Like this place better when it was Eleven.
Like the abbey better.

OK. I HAVE SO MUCH LOVE FOR THIS PLACE. I worked with ERIC over there to set up a table for my best friend’s birthday party last night. She wanted to go to a West Hollywood Drag Show, but it can be tough to find one on a Wednesday night. The COUNTRY QUEENS show at FLAMING SADDLES is fabulous! ERIC reserved a table for us right next to the stage. He was extremely thoughtful and emailed me first to ask if we would like to be that close. The queens loved up on the birthday girl all night.
Our server, OSCAR, was super fast, friendly, and accessible to us at all times throughout the night. Plus, he was very pretttty (they all are). He was even patient as we figured out to split up our tabs… not always the case round these parts. ALSO, I forget his name (sorry!), but the doorman was a BLAST! He totally treated us like royalty from the moment we walked up (even before he knew we were the party of ten with the table reserved). It was a PERFECT night, honestly. Nothing but positive things to say about the ambience, the bar, the staff, the show.
HUGE SHOUT OUT TO ERIC for making sure we were so well cared for. AND, another SHOUT OUT to COREY and any other guy I spoke to when I anxiously called in to confirm things. You are all so friggin’ sweet. We can’t wait to come back. See you soon, Flaming Saddles! XO

Went after a Dodgers game with my girlfriend. Much to my surprise there was a drag show! The entertainers were pretty good. I enjoyed the show. Our bartender was friendly and attentive unlike most gay bars where the bartenders tend to focus on who they are going to hook up with at the end of the night. I expected more of a country feel after reading other reviews but that wasn’t it at all. Most of the music played was Top 40 stuff. Will visit again when in the WeHo area.

Paulo Ramirez DJ’s Saturday nights, and he mixes hits and favorites from the 90’s and on, creating an incredibly fun and undeniably danceable playlist. Love the venue and everyone working there is attentive and good natured

I used to absolutely love this place, but the management/​owners don’t have a clue. Their prices SKYROCKETED ($ 17 excluding tip for TWO drinks. The music is schizophrenic random and they can’t decide if they want to be a club or a bar, country, or top 40.

I haven’t «Yelped» in a while and this place inspired me to get back in the saddle… total pun intended. I was exploring West Hollywood on a hot, Monday afternoon and decided to stop in for one Margarita (famous last words, right?). I was warmly greeted by a lovely *female* bartender — Sammy. The place was quite empty so I had the opportunity to chat with Sammy for a while. Not only does she make a mean margarita but she’s hilarious and genuine. I’m visiting from out of town and was asking her about the scene, particularly where I might go to hear some live music. She said, «Actually if you want, I can give you some live music right now.» To my surprise, she had a guitar and ukulele behind the bar and I was treated to a concert!!! I knew they had dancing boys at night but I had NO idea that they did impromptu live concerts during the day?! As more people started coming in, what I thought would be one, quick drink by myself, turned into a SIX-​HOUR afternoon of drinks, nachos, conversation and live music. The venue itself was nice, the drinks well priced and the food was great and I would go back there for those things. But I will intentionally go there next time I’m in town to see Sammy because it was the culture and tone set by the her that provided me (and everyone else I met that afternoon) an experience unlike any other.

I can’t believe how friendly all the staff is! You assume it’s gonna be hard to get attention for drinks or service, but no! Everyone so friendly! Drinks are great! And the dancers are talented and also sweet when u talk to them! Nice to be reminded that people in west Hollywood can be respectful and great service. Make note whe you meet nice staff like the manager Erick or one of the many nice servers and bartenders like Kevin and Josh. Enjoy your great time here!!!

It’s a hit or miss with this bar. Some weekends it’s packed, and others it’s slow. I’ve grown to like this place a little more each time after my visits. It all depends on the company you’re with. I’ve seen gogo boys up on the bar dancing, as well as the staff member. I’m curious to see what their interviews are like. I’m guessing this guys have to do some sort dance and show up in the tightest clothes in their closet. Definitely a fun time overall. Gotta love that country feel. Also a great place to just grab a drink and have a chill night with friends.
The bartenders move fairly quick here. I’ve never had to wait at the bar long before being served. I highly recommend a visit to this establishment.

So– I walked into flaming saddles after a pretty shit weekend in Vegas. Long story. But it was a Monday afternoon and i just needed to relax. Sam is amazing — first off weird she remembered me from my days in Chicago but then also proceeded to be fun and energetic. I was out by myself and she introduced me to other patrons — to make it feel like a «home bar» atmosphere. I’ll be coming for happy hours more m-​w with Sam working. **and she can sing! :-) ask for Sammy

Came here on a Friday, or Saturday, I can’t remember but it was so much fun! $ 5 Fireball shots. Yummy! I absolutely love the NYC flaming saddles since that was my original experience. The difference between the two locations is the size of the venue and the staff’s appearance. In NYC, its a small cozy bar but the staff is buff and hot and sort of like bears… whereas in Weho, they can sort of be typical LA gays a little skinny but hey, its fun regardless. I want to meet the owners. They seem awesome

Why the hell this place so big? I ain’t ever seen it full.
Or anyone doing line dancing.
It was much fuller when it was 11.
I feel like they swung hard with this one and it might be a strike.
Or like they picked a bull that was too wild and it bucked them off… you know what I mean.
Now if they got Hunter Hayes to show up…
11 had Jojo show up… jus sayin’

I’m sure this is a fun place to drink on the weekends but I came here with guests during the week and the food was absolutely disgusting. It was bad enough that we had to wait almost a half hour (which is probably why they make you pay first before they serve you), but when the food finally came out it wasn’t even edible– they served me old refried french fries from the previous night that had been left over. The burger had full-​size buns but only a slider patty on it (that’s a mini patty, about 2 inches across) and was tough as rubber. The New York location of flaming saddles is great, but much to my surprise — the West Hollywood one is a complete disgrace. I have included a picture of those disgusting fries and entrée. The servers were nice, but I would never bring anyone back here again. Really embarrassing.

I was very stand offish because I loved when this place was 11, BUT … Flaming saddles has changed my mind !!
Country bar in Weho ! Never thought Weho was missing one till now ! It was tons of fun with cute cowboy dancers ! The drinks are strong and have a good price point ! The food is all very southern and fried so prepare your self ! They have a great dance space also outdoor seating.
Awesome place to drink on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon!

If you like country music and hot men dancing on tables, this is your place! Every time I come here I get a real kick out of the music, dancing, and reasonably-​priced drinks. It’s pretty much a must-​stop on my list of WeHo bars. It’s always full, but never too packed — my kinda crowd.
Also, being a gay bar they have a unisex bathroom, which actually leads to some hilarious run-​ins. Just don’t be startled by it.

GOT A CALL this morning from ERIC @Flaming Saddles and I have to say I am more than IMPRESSED.
I visited the bar over Pride weekend and unfortunately LEFT MY PHONE at the location. I’m not from LA, so when Eric called to say that they had my phone I was ecstatic but a little bummed bc I lived so far away. When he said THEY COULD SHIP IT to me, I couldn’t believe it.
This place has my business for a long time to come, not only bc of their generosity but bc the ATMOSPHERE and PEOPLE are AMAZING.

The pros:
— Huge event space upstairs that can easily hold over 150 of your favorite friends
— Ample seating in said event space
— Super friendly staff /​management
— Well-​priced drinks /​they’ll do drink specials for your large party
— They have a kitchen if you want to order food
— They played «She Thinks My Tractor’s Sexy» twice last night
— I saw it in the daylight, and it actually seemed clean!
The less exciting:
— It’s loud. Maybe if you’re 25 you don’t care…
— The music is all over the board – it’s not straight up country
— At one point, someone started a motorcycle inside, and, not knowing what it was, I thought we were going to have to evacuate our entire party.
I will say, though, everyone in the place – upstairs and downstairs – seemed to be having a great time!

* Kind of dead for Sunday Funday
* Cheap drinks!
* Hot cowboy bartenders that dance on the tables every so often (thumbs up)
* Cheap drinks!
* Tried to dance on the tables too, but was stopped (probably not a good idea)
* Friendly crowd
* Cheap drinks!

A friend and I were visiting the area and were looking for a fun bar to spend the night at. What a great choice we made by coming here! Eric was an excellent bartender and amazing performer — he made us feel right at home, treated us like we were regulars, made sure our glasses were always full and entertained us all night long!
If you’re in the area and looking for an awesome night out with an outstanding bartender, come to flaming saddles and ask for Eric! You will thank me later.
