Built in the town, for the town

Dezi's Lounge is Mistah F.A.B.'s spot in downtown Oakland, opened in 2021 and named for his mother. Two decades of building for the city, now with a room to do it in.

Three floors of music, art, and good drinks a few blocks off the lake. The kind of place where you know the bartender, the DJ knows the room, and Friday night feels like home.

The house DopeEra built

Dezi's Lounge is Mistah F.A.B.'s cocktail lounge and live events venue in downtown Oakland — opened in 2021, named for his mother, and run by the DopeEra family.

The room

Three floors at 1802 Telegraph Ave with separate entrances, a full bar, and a stage that hosts everything from first-timers at the open mic to Bay legends pulling up unannounced.

The family

DopeEra is Fab's crew, label, and brand — two decades deep in Oakland. Dezi's is the home base where the music, the merch, and the people all meet.

The community

More than a bar. Thug Therapy brings real talk and mental wellness to the culture every other Wednesday, and the family keeps building for the Town beyond these walls.

The room every week: live shows, private events, and three stories of the Town doing what it does. Tap in so you never hear about a night after it happened.
