Live Music & Mediterranean Dining

House of Legends runs nightly lounge programming, with featured live music Wednesday through Sunday: Open Mic Wednesday (8PM-11PM), DJ Night Thursday (10PM-2AM), Jazz Trio Friday (8PM-11PM), Mediterranean Groove Saturday (9PM-12AM), and Acoustic Sundays (7PM-10PM). Visit our Events page for the complete weekly schedule.

Most of our live music events are completely free with no cover charge, including Friday Jazz Nights, Saturday Mediterranean Groove, Wednesday Open Mic, and Sunday Acoustic Sessions. Our Thursday DJ Night has a modest $10 cover after 11PM. No hidden fees - just great music, Mediterranean food, and hookah.

Reservations are highly recommended, especially for Friday and Saturday nights when our jazz and band performances draw larger crowds. Reserve your table online through our website or call (818) 489-2557. Walk-ins are welcome based on availability, but reservations guarantee your spot for the best live music experience in Encino.

Absolutely! House of Legends specializes in private events for 6-150 guests. We offer customized packages including dedicated event space, personalized Mediterranean menus, premium hookah service, and optional live music. Full venue buyouts are available for larger celebrations like weddings, anniversaries, and corporate galas. Contact us at info@houseoflegendslounge.com or call (818) 489-2557 to discuss your event.

We host a wide variety of private events including birthday parties, engagement celebrations, anniversary dinners, corporate gatherings, product launches, holiday parties, wedding receptions, quinceañeras, bar/bat mitzvahs, and cultural celebrations. Our experienced events team will customize every detail - from menu selection to entertainment - to create an unforgettable experience for you and your guests.

Our Open Mic Wednesdays welcome all performers - singers, musicians, poets, comedians, and storytellers. Sign-up begins at 7:30PM (first-come, first-served), and performances start at 8PM. Each performer gets a 10-15 minute set. All skill levels are welcome, from beginners testing new material to experienced artists. We provide a full sound system, microphones, and a supportive audience. Arrive early to secure your performance slot!

House of Legends offers a combination you will not find elsewhere on Ventura Boulevard: standout live music paired with authentic Mediterranean cuisine, premium hookah, craft cocktails, and a botanical bar. Unlike typical music venues, we provide a complete evening experience with restaurant-quality dining, intimate lounge seating, and professional sound in an upscale yet welcoming atmosphere. Plus, most shows are free with no cover charge.

Yes! Our musicians love taking requests, especially during Jazz Nights and Acoustic Sessions. While we can't guarantee every request (it depends on the performer's repertoire), most artists are happy to accommodate special song requests or dedications. For guaranteed song selections at private events, discuss your musical preferences with our events coordinator when booking.

Absolutely! Our full Mediterranean menu, hookah menu, craft cocktail bar, and botanical wellness drinks are available throughout all live music performances. Many guests enjoy sharing mezze platters, sipping specialty cocktails, and smoking premium hookah while listening to live jazz or bands. We recommend arriving 30-45 minutes before showtime to order food and settle in.

Yes, free parking is available in our dedicated lot behind the restaurant on Ventura Boulevard. Additional street parking is typically available on surrounding streets. For large private events with 50+ guests, we can provide valet parking service (additional fee). The parking lot entrance is clearly marked - look for the House of Legends sign at 16101 Ventura Boulevard in Encino.

House of Legends has a smart casual dress code. Most guests dress in business casual or stylish evening wear for live music nights. While we don't require formal attire, we ask that guests avoid beachwear, athletic wear, or overly casual clothing. For private events, the dress code can be customized to match your celebration - from cocktail attire to black-tie formal.

Our live music events vary by night. Friday Jazz Nights, Saturday Mediterranean Bands, and Sunday Acoustic Sessions are family-friendly until 10PM, welcoming guests of all ages to enjoy live music and Mediterranean dining. Wednesday Open Mic and Thursday DJ Nights are 21+ after 10PM due to our full bar atmosphere. For specific event details, check our weekly calendar or call ahead.
