Silversun Liquor

Have never encountered worse service in my life! The workers are consistently rude and unhelpful. There are multiple aggressive signs all over the store assuming you are a racist and a thief before you even say/​buy or do anything. won’t ever go back

NEVER AGAIN!!! I got 3 MOUTHFULS OF SPIT in my face after I paid an absorbent amount for a 6 pack of beer. I came at the wrong time, the clerk decided that everyone who crossed his threshold had to listen to his rhetoric… Which include him shaming me for saying FUCK, but screamed the very word every single time (I counted 3) as his SPIT in my face. I stood there in utter shock and disbelief. If I would have engaged this person it would have escalated and then who would be in the wrong. I am not one to get physical but I feel like my human RIGHTS were taken away when this grown man SPIT in my face, not once, but THREE times!!! DO NOT SPEND YOUR MONEY HERE.

We sent in 3 different races to this liquor store. One white girl, one asian girl, and two black girls. The man behind the counter who we aren’t sure his race kicked out the white girl and the asain girl when we were only looking at wine. He made best friends with the black girls. We figured out who he likes. Clearly even our diverse group was not good enough for him.

I go here a lot and have never had a major problem. I’m always extra nice to the guy who works here bc he seems pretty grumpy. I typically only visit the store in the day & early evening – maybe late night is more rough?
I really prefer the ppl at the ⁷⁄₁₁ down the road, but still occasionally shop here.

After reading all these shocking reviews, I realize that I had a relatively uneventful trip here. I came some little bottles of whiskey to slip in before dinner at Silverlake Ramen with my girl friend. There is a pretty good selection of snacks and alcohol to choose from and also quite a good selection of hard alcohol behind the counter. There were two people at the counter, a younger and older man who look to be Sikh by their turbans, but that’s just a guess and not very educated one. They were polite and really quite nice to us. They added in a cute joke about how we didn’t need bags because we would just put the alcohol in our bodies and also silently passed us some informational pamphlet about religion –I don’t know which one, I threw it away. Now that I think about it maybe their lack of rudeness was because we were two relatively cute and friendly girls but either way I’d rather judge these people on the nice experience I had with them than the unfortunate experiences that other people seem to have had.

I’ve heard stories about this place and always laughed. They mark two parking spaces out front as liquor store only. There is one more unmarked space perpendicular to them, questionable but I only needed a minute. To be safe, I went inside silversun to purchase a water. No prices on anything and I could tell she pulled the $ 2 price from her ass. I didn’t question it and happily paid. As I’m paying she said I can’t park there, it’s for liquor store only! Am I not inside the liquor store? When I questioned she just repeated no parking! So word to the wise do not park in their reserved spaces even if you are, in fact, going to the liquor store…

Think of my star as no stars. The idiot behind the counter is a sexist a**h***. He just went off on my friend for simply asking a question and trying to get clarification on some lottery tickets. It’s unbelievable that this store hasn’t gone out of business. I will never set foot in here again and neither should you!!!

Just an ol grab n go joint. Probably where Silver Sun Pickups got there name, it is Silver Lake… I needed a pick-​me-​up… I had a quick conversation with the owner. Wise dude.

I was in SilverSun Liquor at about 10 pm on July 22, 2015. The proprietor became quite angry with the woman in line ahead of me (she was being rude). As she left, the proprietor just went off the rails ballistic. screaming: YOU FUCKING AMERICANS! GET OUT OF MY STORE NOW — I WILL KILL YOU — GET OUT! Everyone ran from the store of course. This man was in a terrifying rage. We were all lucky he didn’t appear to have a weapon. I have no doubt someone would have hurt or killed, maybe me
I spoke to LAPD. There is nothing they can do. But I for one will never again set foot within 50 yards of Silver Sun Liquor. Beware.

Want to ruin your day? Shop here. This place is ran by a miserable bigot getting off on making you frown. It’s a shame people are not likely to Unilocal a liquor store before shopping there so spread the word. He’s the kind of person that makes you worry for mankind.

I hope this place goes bankrupt or lighting strikes it! Places like this are the reason corporate places like 7– Eleven have succeeded. The Angry drunk Indian owner verbally abused me for scratching off the remaining scan numbers to a winning lotto scratcher on his counter after he told me to scratch it off. He said «what the fuck was I thinking» he could have just scratched it himself and scanned it and not asked me to do it. I’ve been to thousands of liquor stores and have done this before. I said you should put a sign up that says don’t scratch lotto tickets on the counter next to your other five bullshit signs with the 75¢ card charge and ten dollar minimum! he then said «fuck you you piece of shit» I said why are you cursing at me?” I then took the high road and said I will never be coming back here and told him to fuck himself. So if the owner ever reads this. Go fuck Yourself. YRML. You’re done! I hope your store closes and a new better store opens! Fuck you and your bodega overpriced bullshit store. Asshole!!!

Wow!!! What an awful experience! This Sikh is the biggest asshole on planet earth. How he’s still in business seriously shocks me. He’s rude, foul, and curses at the customers with very vulgar language. DON’T GO HERE!!! You’ve been warned!!’

Rarely do I leave one star but damn the guy behind the counter is just a dick. I went in to buy some cigarettes and he was arguing with a couple in front of us then when we approached the counter he kicked us out immediately. We hadn’t even said anything for f’s sakes. It was so rude it was comical. I just read some reviews from other Unilocalers with similar experiences so I guess this is a semi-​regular occurrence. If you need booze there are plenty of other options in the hood. Save yourself the hassle or go and see for yourself his distain for humanity is so unbridled that it might make you laugh. I did.

This place sucks! Visit Pm Market across the street!
I only buy when Pm Market is closed or when I need something Pm Market doesn’t carry.

extremely over priced and the selection is weak. Probably the only cool thing about it is the name. The employees are also parking space nazis.

Came here late at night to buy cigarettes. The man behind the counter was very angry and yelling at customers in line. When it was my turn, he yelled at me «fuck your mother» over and over and over again. Then he threatened to come out from behind the counter and hurt me. All because I asked him about a sign he had put on the counter top that said something along the lines of he wears a turban because he is indian. I tried assuring him I only wanted Marlboro Lights and no trouble, but when that didn’t work he wanted to come at me physically, I left the store and the other guy who worked there had to lock the door and calm him down. I got in the car where my friends were waiting and sped off. It was a scary experience… Definitely worth driving further away to 7Eleven than to be treated this way and threatened by the sales person/​owner. I wish I called the police that night, it was about 6 months ago.

So, I signed up for Unilocal simply to review this place after the incident I had at Silversun Liquors today.
Walked in, perused the drinks, grabbed a soda, walked up to the counter, said hello. Fine so far.
Now, I’m a curious guy and a friendly guy. I’ll talk to anyone. So, seeing that the man behind the counter had on a turban and an unusually styled beard, I assumed he’s originally from some foreign land, so I politely asked, «can I ask you where you’re from?». I always ask people where they’re from. I have made friends with people from all over the world simply by starting a conversation by asking where they’re from.
Without delay, the man behind the counter proceeds to berate me about how I should not ask such questions and that I must be assuming that he is Muslim, but that he’s not Muslim, and that I have been brainwashed by the American media. He told me how rude it was for me to ask him where he’s from and that he’s lived here for 15 years.
I tried to explain to him that I was just attempting to make friendly conversation and that I frequently ask people where they’re from. But he had already made his mind up that I was profiling him as a terrorist or something, so after mumbling something I can only assume was offensive, in whatever his native tongue happens to be (I never found out), he continued to snap at me in English before I said «well, don’t expect me back in here» and left.
Now, I’m sure he’s probably had some racist comments hurled in his direction over the past few years. That’s the only explanation I can come up with for how he reacted, but there was definitely a more polite option he could have gone with, as opposed to accusing me of essentially being some sort of racist. I really didn’t even care where he was from, just trying to be friendly with the local shopkeeper.

Wow, I should have read the reviews, but I thought it’s just a liquor store right? It was almost unreal. Asked the guys two questions about his products and he went off the chain. He said «Why would I know about this, you where born here! If I were in my country I would slap you.» He then grab the product from my hand and swiped at my face. Left laughing with my cash in hand. Not sure if the guy is a drunk or just bipolar. Good luck.

You should go here just for the experience. When I walked in the owner/​manager actually snarled at me. He looked like he hated my guts and wanted to kill me. Strange.
I thought I was over reacting but when I walked back to pay there he was snarling again. I stared right back at him and he kept on giving that shitty look. I went up to pay he overcharged me and then added $ 1.00 for me to use my credit card. I asked him if he was charing me a buck to take my credit card (since there are no signs and he didn’t say he was charging me a fee) and he gave me another shitty look and said yes. I told him forget it and he gave me an even shittier look (if that is possible).
Like I said, go in here just for the amusement of it all. He is a piece of work.

Yes, what everyone else on Unilocal says is pretty true, the guy who runs this shop is incredibly rude, has a temper, and charges whatever he wants for items when you bring them to checkout. I’ve been in here a couple times: the first time he charged my friend around $ 15 for a pack of PBR, which we all knew wasn’t worth the cost. The last time I was in there, the shop owner immediately kicked my friend out when he was asking about magazines, I assume because he thought my friend was making fun of him? Regardless, there is nothing good about this place other than it being open later than other liquor stores in the area. I recommend just buying your snacks, smokes and liquor elsewhere earlier in the day so you don’t have to visit this place.
