Every year, I always have my b-day party at a club or a lounge bar, I decided this year to make it different. After reading rave reviews for Arena Interactive Lounge, I decided to have my party here instead, and I'm glad I did. Because I had a lot of guests (between 80-100), I talked to Ron (manager/owner) and was able to set up a private party. Ron is one of the coolest managers around, he was able to accomodate our large group. I even brought my own music so the people could rock out while playing video games or just mingling. My guests kept telling me it was a great idea, people loved playing Guitar Hero 2 and Dance Dance Revolution. People were amazed that they had a great selection of games, including classic games like Super Mario Bros. This place normally closes at 12, but Ron let us stay until 1am...the people who work there are really nice and helpful, they even provided instructions on how to play some of the newer games and they set up any game that you want to play. Kudos to Ron and his crew, another very satisfied customer here. Keep up the good work. Pros: Classic and New video games, cool factor, great and accomodating staff Cons: NONE!

I go to the Arena Interactive Lounge almost everyday to a talk radio show (All Games Interactive), and that's not the only reason I go. Arena is the coolest place to hang you. 50" DLP HDTVs, 8 ft couches, with built in subwoofers, for that tingly feeling, and almost every game you can think of. The employees are very friendly, and are not afraid to help you. They also sell snacks and drinks (I recommend trying an AtomicX while your there), but if Candy dosen't satisfy you, then there are lots of restaurants in mere walking distance, with great food. Arena is also in a great location, four blocks west from the 405, with a great view. Only thing not so great is that there's a two hour parking limit till 6:00 PM, but after that it's free. Arena is a great place to play some games, hang out with your friends, and meet some new ones. If you are ever in the West LA area, or even anywhere in LA, you have to go and check out Arena, because when you go there once, you'll wanna keep coming back Pros: people, atmosphere, games Cons: parking

Needed somewhere to chill, this is the place. Relaxing yet out of this world excitement. I can stay for hours at a time, Even grab some food and drinks while I am there. Couches have subwoofers built in, TV's were huge and crystal clear. Was able to preview games before I bought them. Great place to hang out. Great prices and even better with the prepaid card. Check this place out. Pros: Nothing like it around!

Ok. . . Arena gives you a completely different gamein' experience. you sit down and are completely surrounded by the game. For a good time bring everyone you know fill a few Screens set up a good old fasion Halo 1 game if your not into that anything is good. but there is no exitement that can match that of Arena's sub woofers in the couches and the huge screens. you can get completely lost in there and its not at all a bad thing.

I like gaming here because they have a large variety of games--which is important if you have a girlfriend who doesn't particularly enjoy 2 hours of intense SLAYER on HALO 3. At Arena lounge she can easily move over to the next couch and play her favorite Super Mario game from the good old Nintendo days, or that new guitar game that isn't too exciting to us guys but chicks have a blast. It usually feels like "PULLING TEETH" when I ask my girl to join me at ANY game parlor but I spent many hours here with her and she had a blast too. Ohh, and the Surround Sound thats built into each COUCH IS PRETTTY COOL! But no alcohol yet, wasssup with that? Pros: You can link all the screen to each other for an intense game of HALO. Everyone gets their own m onitor Cons: No alchohol yet! BOOOOO!

Every time I go to LA I try to take some time to play at The Arena, because there is no place like it in the country. The decor rocks, the couches are comfortable and cool (speakers in the best places for optimal listening pleasure), the game and snack selections are awesome. The available space is huge - great for parties, and it is also one of the few places you can play console games with a ton of friends! Go and you won't regret it! Pros: Ambience, service, game selection Cons: No parking
