In a space most recently known as Trousdale, Bootsy Bellows is an ingenious nightlife creation from David Arquette along with entrepreneur John Terzian (SHOREbar), Brian Toll (SHOREbar, h.wood), Darren Dzienciol, and Deborah Maguire. Together the group of nightclub mavens debut a Rat-Pack-style cabaret club that aims to recreate the grander days of Hollywood with a sophisticated and fun series of nightly stage shows and live performances. The space benefits from Arquette's years of design influence with notable decorators and architects in the LA area, forging a look that goes beyond the fluorescent settees and Murano chandlers of clubs du jour and hones a new look born of glossy black walls inlaid with diamond-shape mirrors and baroque gold details the lend a touch of Cocoanut Grove. A further VIP room offer more cozy booth arrangements as well as a baby grand piano ready for any "Fabulous Baker Boy" moments.
