One of L.A.'s oldest and most beloved neighborhood bars reopens as a brothel-themed live music lounge.

In Short

On a gritty strip in the Little Tokyo-adjacent area thus far untouched by gentrification, the former Little Pedro's space has been transformed back to its 19th century roots, when it first operated as a brothel. The goth-style space embraces its history with scarlet-red walls and a cathedral-like stage area with crystal chandeliers and gilded woodwork. The space is now used as a live music lounge for budding local musicians and the hipsters that follow, along with flashbacks to earlier eras with bands like Royal Crown Revue.
