Touché at the Standard

If you're just in the mood for some good DJ grooves courtesy of a mind-melting film director, Michel Gondry is among the guest spinners at this party in the hotel's Purple Lounge. There's no cover, but we're gonna go out on a limb and predict you might see some skinny jeans.

THE ONE

L'Aperitif at Anisette

To celebrate its first birthday (they grow up so fast), your go-to brasserie by the beach has launched a happy-hour menu with $4 charcuterie, $4 cheeses and $4 Kronenbourg 1664s. Sounds like about 10 good reasons to go (the beer counts for 8).

Guy's Summer Series at Luau
TIKI REVELRY

Guy's Summer Series at Luau

When Guys & Dolls  took over the legendary Guy's Bar, you thought Guy's was dead. But really it's just summering at a tiki restaurant—after dinner ends, bottle service, a dance floor and a velvet rope emerge. Like old times, but with more mai tais.

Through August, Fri-Sat, 10pm-2am, 369 N. Bedford Dr, Beverly Hills

Saturday
Campanile Turns 20
SPIT TAKE

Campanile Turns 20

The LA institution is going whole hog for its 20th-birthday blowout—actually, whole pig is more like it. Saturday's monster pig-roast will involve Lobster & Corn Cob Salad, Ice Pops and a whole lot of wine.
