Welcome to the best kept secret in North Hollywood! Risky Business has been curating extraordinary cocktails, home infused liquors, absinthes, craft beers, potions, kombuchas, and honey wines for 14 years and counting. Be the first to introduce your friends to something truly unique and wonderful...

We used to be The Other Door, but then California shut down all the bars   for two weeks to flatten the curve   just a few more weeks to stop the spread   another couple months because of Newsom or Trump or Biden or someone   one full year because of a virus, so we said WHAT THE FUCK and reopened as Risky Business!

We have no marketing experience. And a limited attention span. And our only skill is making drinks. So in our rare moments of sobriety, we invent flaming cocktails, order exotic craft beers that we love, and PRAY TO CROM that you will visit us for some absinthe, or a horn of honey wine, or just to gawk at the shrieking baboon hanging from our ceiling.

And THANK YOU for MESSAGING YOUR FRIENDS to join us!
