Disputed
It seems someone entered in this article comments to show that the founding year of this establishment is much after the time the people listed as visitors were even alive. If anyone have more information on this place, please provide corrections to the article and it would be nice if you can explain your corrections here.

Here is a part of the article that might be inaccurate, please note the inserted unencyclopedic comments to understand why. Those comments have now been removed and replaced with Template:Dubious statements:

''The restaurant was founded in 1972 by Elmer Valentine, Lou Adler, Mario Maglieri and others (including film director Vincente Minnelli, at the time (?? she died in 1969) married to Judy Garland) It quickly became known as a hangout for celebrities of all types. John Belushi ate his last meal (lentil soup) at table #16, and Joe DiMaggio and Marilyn Monroe met (? what year was THAT?? she died in 1962!)at the Rainbow on a blind date. ''

 * I take responsibility for this confusion. The Toronto Star article that I sourced actually says that the Rainbow Bar and Grill "used to be the famed Villa Nova restaurant, where not only did Vincente Minnelli propose to Judy Garland, but where DiMaggio first met Marilyn Monroe on a blind date". I'll check the other sources as well, and fix this up. Thanks very much. Paul Erik  (talk) (contribs) 04:29, 23 December 2008 (UTC)


 * i was partially to blame for this also. I added the elmer valentine reference & merged it with the previous minelli content. i will double check my sources next time. Minnaert (talk) 21:34, 23 December 2008 (UTC)


 * Does this Villa Nova/Rainbow Bar confusion also explain how Jim Morrison and Janis Joplin are cited as visiting the place after they were deceased? This should be made clear. --Evenmadderjon (talk) 17:57, 9 February 2010 (UTC)

Wrong Geoco-ordinates
What's up with the geo co-ordinates pointing to Tehachapi, California? Is this a just a mistake that nobody's ever checked or a sign that portions of this article are a hoax? Dave (talk) 19:15, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
 * It's approximately correct now. tedder (talk) 00:05, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Infobox
Needs an infobox. Perhaps the same type as that of the Whisky a Go Go.--Leahtwosaints (talk) 01:48, 11 October 2009 (UTC) How could you leave out Harry Nilsson??? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.209.17.222 (talk) 04:26, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
