Nightlife Report · Lillith Magic · Directed by Anthony Perlas
A handful of groups control most of the velvet rope in West Hollywood, and The h.wood Group, founded in 2008 by John Terzian and Brian Toll, runs the rooms people talk about most (h.wood). We reviewed two of them.

Nightlife Report Review
Delilah Review
West Hollywood (The h.wood Group)
h.wood’s supper club is the WeHo room everyone tries to get into, and the brand has since spread to Dallas, Las Vegas and Miami.
Door & Entry
This is a reservation-first room. h.wood’s paid Rolodex membership lists complimentary entry with up to three guests at Delilah (Rolodex), which tells you how hard the door is. Book dinner early.
Atmosphere & Design
A dressed-up, old-glamour supper club. It is the h.wood look at its most polished (h.wood).
Crowd
Fashion-forward and dressed for it.
Value
You pay for access and atmosphere. A dinner reservation is the most reliable way in.
Verdict · 8.0 / 10
The most glamorous room in WeHo, if you can get a reservation.
The Good
- Supper-club glamour
- Dinner gets you in
- A proven brand across four cities
The Bad
- Very hard door
- Paid membership tilts access
Who it’s for: Date nights and dressed-up dinners that turn into a late night.
Nightlife Report Review
Keys Review
West Hollywood area (The h.wood Group)
A smaller h.wood room built for the late-night hang. It’s a lounge, not a megaclub.
Door & Entry
Rolodex members get skip-the-line entry for up to three guests at Keys and Poppy (Rolodex). Everyone else waits.
Atmosphere & Design
An intimate, warmly lit room in the h.wood style (h.wood).
Crowd
Industry and late-night regulars.
Value
Tight room, high demand. Arrive early or come with someone on the list.
Verdict · 7.5 / 10
The insider’s after-dinner room in WeHo. Small, sharp and selective.
The Good
- Intimate room
- A good second stop after dinner
The Bad
- Membership holders skip the line
- Small capacity means long waits
Who it’s for: Small groups who want a lounge after dinner.
Who runs the room
Delilah and Keys are both h.wood Group venues, the company that also runs The Nice Guy, Poppy and Harriet’s. Read How LA Nightlife Really Works for the groups behind the night and our Hideaway-to-Warwick route.
The door, explained
h.wood sells access directly: its Rolodex membership is priced in the low four figures a year and offers priority reservations and skip-the-line entry (Rolodex). Dress codes are real and usually enforced harder on men.

Closed, so skip them
1OAK LA, Bootsy Bellows, Hyde Sunset, Nightingale and The Highlight Room are listed as closed as of 2026 (LALA Guide). Zouk LA now occupies the former Nightingale space.
