Master Critic Review
Carmel
8.7
Members pairs a Moroccan-inspired dining room with a members-club sensibility, offering Mediterranean-leaning plates alongside live performances and a curated nightlife program. The kitchen leans into grilled meats, seafood, and mezze that feel more polished than the average club menu. It’s best approached as a full evening out rather than a quick bite.
Must-Try Dishes:
Members’ Signature Mezze, Charcoal-Grilled Lamb Chops, Spiced Seafood Tagine

What makes it special: Moroccan palace–style setting that merges Mediterranean dining with club programming.
Who should go: Guests wanting a full dinner-and-nightlife experience.
When to visit: Late-night seatings on performance nights for the full show.
What to order: Signature mezze, lamb chops, seafood tagine with cocktails.
Insider tip: Check the events calendar—some nights skew more performance- or DJ-focused.
Logistics & Planning
Parking: Valet is the norm along the Sunset Strip (typically $15–$20); metered and side-street parking is limited and competitive after 7pm.
Dress code: Elevated smart-casual leaning dressy; polished outfits preferred given the nightlife component.
Noise level: High during performances and DJ sets; expect limited conversation once the room shifts into nightlife mode.
Weekend wait: Reservations are essential; walk-ins can face 60–90 minute waits or be turned away on performance nights.
Weekday lunch: Not applicable—venue operates primarily evenings into late night.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Solid coverage—mezze, salads, and a few mains can be ordered vegetarian.
Vegan options: Limited—1–2 mezze and salads can be modified; mains are minimal.
Gluten-free options: Good accommodation—several grilled proteins and salads are naturally gluten-free; staff is used to navigating restrictions.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Yes if you want a high-energy, glamorous setting; less ideal for intimate conversation due to music volume and live performances.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Possible early evening on weekdays, but unlikely during peak hours or special events. Walk-ins should expect to wait or be offered bar seating.
Is it kid-friendly? Not recommended—late-night programming, loud music, and a nightlife-focused crowd make it an adults-oriented environment.
Best For
Better for: A full evening that blends elevated Mediterranean dishes with a curated show-and-nightlife atmosphere—ideal for celebrations and statement nights out.
Skip if: You want a quiet dinner, early meal times, or a menu with extensive vegan or family-friendly options.
