Villa , W Hollywood

Villa - Space suits?  Dioramas? Stuffed animals? Yes, please. Owner Reza Roohi’s new space on the corner of Melrose and Huntley brings secret-society chic to a whole new level. Though nearly impenetrable without an A-List hook up, the petite space is quirky, stylish, and intriguingly costumed with peculiar pieces of art to make the avant-garde crowd feel right at home.  This two-story destination holds only a handful of people, so those lucky enough to enter will rub elbows with LA’s upper-crust.  The strict dress code and a stricter guest list thusly demands extensive premeditated planning, no matter who you know.  Sacramento Kings’ Ron Artest has attested that he and his entourage were promptly rejected for not sporting proper duds.
