“TACOS NOT ON MENU!

Great non-Mexico tacos! But so good. Crispy! Their burritos are fried so a little different. These old-school taco places are nostalgic and need to stay around. Service is always fast and friendly with reasonable prices. They make their own hot sauce, so it's pretty good. Go if not just for nostalgia.“

“Good tacos, good flavor, 1.50 tripa tacos. Don't have parking.“

“Over all a nice experience. Sharon was welcoming and provided excellent service. She was friendly, knowledgeable about the menu, and delivered the food promptly. Additionally, she was very attentive, checking on us three times during our visit. We greatly appreciate Sharon’s service.“

“The food here reminds me of home, their chilaquiles were sooooo good, the are more true to Mexican style and their pancakes are omg to die for. The staff is so sweet, they try to make your experience feel like you are home this became easily one of my favorite places to have breakfast at in Whittier“

“I need to get something good I got a caldo de res , the ladies are so serious they are very good with customer service , everything was good that it comes with the plate👍🏻👍🏻

Parking: Good food all the time I go there to eat !!!“

“Hands down, some of the most delicious food I've eaten lately! They utilize only the freshest ingredients and ensure that each dish is properly prepared. The branzino was very memorable. "Must try!"
From appetizers to sweets, this restaurant well surpassed our expectations!“

“great drinks and food! nice fun and relaxing setting“

“The tacos are delicious. I didn’t prefer the chicharron taco; my assumption was the pork fat would be crispy, but it was blubbery. I didn’t eat it. This was probably a mistake on my end.

The pork tamale was delicious as was the steak taco. The tamale wasn’t dry at all (I’ve seen other reviews saying it was dry). The service was so friendly and kind. I loved the artwork, but I did want a salsa bar. I’ll be back absolutely, and recommend the cantaloupe agua fresca.“

“Super cute place with very chic vibes! Delicious drinks and great food - came here for coffee(matcha) and brunch - everything was on point! Now I want to come back in the evening for cocktails - they’ve got an amazing cocktail menu as well!“

“They treated me very kindly and the food is very delicious. I ordered 2 plates of roast beef and a plate of roast chicken. They served it with beans, rice, chives, elbow or fresh salad and tortillas. We were very satisfied. For me, the price of the dish is good. .“

“Wow. This is a hidden gem in DTLA. Highly recommend unless you're a jerk. Ha. Great drinks, great food and amazing service. Felt like I was just hanging with old friends having a very enjoyable evening. This is gonna be my go-to spot anytime I am hanging downtown.“

“A small venue, with seating available inside and outside the venue. The service was pleasant, the staff was very friendly, the service was fast, the dishes have a very good homemade flavor, the dishes are also large, the price is very affordable, they have a bathroom to wash your hands which is very necessary, so I highly recommend them .“

“The best barbacoa!“

“Sol 626 is truly special. The menu offers a good variety of dishes, and our server was very knowledgeable about the ingredients and the origins of the recipes. Ambiance and service were exemplary, but the food was the real star of our evening. We tried the salmon, carne asada, and enchiladas with both red and green mole sauces. Each of these plates was perfectly prepared. Such amazing flavors! I also ordered the jamaica agua fresca, and it was delicious and not too sweet. I highly recommend Sol 626.

Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options would require substitutions.

Parking: Parking lot behind restaurant

Wheelchair accessibility: The parking lot behind the restaurant has accessible parking and a double door entrance to the building level with the parking lot. The front, street side entrance has steps and so is not wheelchair accessible.“

“Had a great meal here before a show at the Paramount. My husband had fajitas and I had the potato dish with added rosemary potatoes 🤩. I couldn’t finish mine - very filling but absolutely delicious. The proprietor is welcoming and helpful. We will definitely return and I will make more sensible choices!“

“This place is very hole in the wall. It's located in the alley way between Wall Street and Maple Ave. The entrance is only located in the middle of the alley driveway. I can best describe the food as a mix of Mexican, Salvadorean. I'm biased, I always order their asada burrito and it has never been bad. Meat was flavorful, just the right amount of rice and beans, cilantro and onions. Their red sauce is spicy and goes well with the burrito. I've always ordered takeout, and never ate inside the restaurant. Service has always been quick for me, as you walk up to the counter inside, place your order and pay when it comes out. They are usually busy during the day as they serve all the locals around here. The delivery person is usually busy, coming in and out taking orders. The caldos seem to be popular here as well as the pupusas. The establishment seems to be a family owned and operated joint.

The prices are more than fair for the food you are getting. If I remember correctly, the burrito that I ordered is $13 and you get a LARGE burrito that is packed. You will get full off this burrito. I've been there a few times, and I definitely want to go back so I can try their other dishes and see if they are just as good. Give them a shot if you're in the area for a quick bite. I believe they're worth it.“

“Authentic Mexican food. Best Magaritas along with good music and service“

“My new favorite place! So healthy and right sized portions. This was my first visit. Easily navigated the kiosk and liked how I could customize. Food came out super quick. I had the roasted sweet potatoes and the chicken bowl with the green goddess dressing. So delicious! I will be telling my family & friends.“

“Grabbed a quick dinner and drinks here. You just walk in, open seating. Scan a QR code to see the menu and then order at the bar. You’ll get your drinks at the bar and then dinner is brought out to you. Then to close your tab you have to go back to the bar which can be a bit of a wait unfortunately. But not too bad. The tacos were great. We went right before happy hour was ending and got $5 tacos. They were really good.“

“Good food, good service in some cooks like La Guera, but another not very good service. Yesterday I stopped by to eat and a cook even brought her the tray. I went to pay and there she left my tray. The same cook in La Guera always serves well ?“

“Super buena me encanta tengo años consumiendo y no lo cambiaría por nada“

“Love this place, makes me feel like I went back in time...Definitely a hidden gem! The food: chicken wings, pizza, pasta, etc... any foodie would appreciate. The selection of beers � and wine � are varied and last but not least, the SERVICE, we are spoiled Everytime, the staff goes above and beyond! I highly recommend stopping there before any type of LA event.“

“With every new Peruvian restaurant that I go to, I just have to try their Lomo Saltado since that's my barometer for Peruvian cuisines, and Bodegon No 69 very much delivers!

The Lomo Saltado is a classic, must-try staple in Peruvian cuisine. Cooked in a wok with soy sauce (there is a lot of Chinese influence in Peruvian cuisine due to the historical Silver trade between China and Spain within Peru), the best kinds of Lomo Saltado is bursting with flavor. The Beef here is thick and hearty, and the sauce is so delicious. The fries are also nice and crisp, too. There's a reason it's one of my favorite dishes and Bodegon serves it well!

To be fair, Bodegon is a bit pricier than majority of Peruvian restaurants that I've gone to, but it also offers a few items I have not seen elsewhere. Most notably, the Anticuchos or beef heart skewers. Heart is one of those meat choices that can be polarizing because of its tougher chewy texture (it is a muscle after all), but this Anticuchos grilled meat is just tender enough and the flavor is so good, especially with their Rocoto Sauce and Patata Brava (Peruvian-style fries potatoes). Only the corn feels forgettable. It's an adventurous dish that is rewarding to your taste buds!

On the other hand, the Tiradito a La Crema Ceviches is a bit underwhelming. It's thin-sliced Hamachi and the mild Aji Amarillo sauce is just a bit polite and mild-mannered. Maybe the other Ceviches are better here.

Lastly, you can't really have Peruvian cuisine without the proper Peruvian drinks, and I highly suggest the Inka Cola and if you fancy an alcoholic drink, the delicious Pisco Sour,which is the national cocktail consisting of pisco (grape brandy), lime juice, syrup, and egg white, with bitter sprinkled up top. It may be similar to a margarita, but it is just so much tastier!

All in all, Bodegon No 69 has some delicious, albeit pricier, but delicious Peruvian cuisine. Just skip the Traditional Ceviches. The staff is wonderful and so friendly and the interior is very cozy and warm.“

“Apple Maps suggested it. Good coffee. No selection on non-sweet pastries. Disappointed on that. But still good coffee. I-5 n broadway location.“

“Muy rica la comida, muchos platillos diferentes en el menú, y muy económico, panadería y variedad de productos Guatemaltecos.“

“The champas are one of the most delicious places to eat pupusas that I have visited, the food is super delicious and they also have kareoke and live music, super atmosphere, if you like pupusas and a good atmosphere this is the place to visit“

“Delicious menudo served with hand made tortillas! Can’t wait to come back to try the birria.“

“Phenomenal. Our server, Candelaria, and Chef Anthony were both so attentive to my nut allergy. Walter was so kind! Thank you for the most amazing dinner experience we’ve had in LA. Fantastic food, incredible atmosphere, attentive and kind staff. 11/10. Thank you ♥️🙏🏼“

“Great fish tacos. Note that these soft taco shells are the larger kind where they're put on the grill for a minute to get slightly crispy and crunchy, not the tiny cold ones out of a bag that everyone else uses for their fish tacos and has to double because they fall apart the instant the salsa touches them. The tacos have generous portions of fish and you can get extra salsa at no charge (again, unlike a lot of other stingy places).

The whole fried tilapia was good too.“

“Rico sabor peruano delicioso“

“This is the place to go if your Hungary. Great homemade by hand plate by plate one at a time. Lots of regular people here and some personalitys too. Three 75" tvs on the wall for sports watching, big bathrooms. The food is of the hook here everything is the bomb. Lots of choices, lots of food for the money. And everybody is family here and everybody knows your name kinda place. Always a satisfying experience here.“

“The place is super clean, excellent customer service, and the employees are very quick in preparing orders.
Also the taste of Tierra Mia's drinks is better than that of that other place that starts with the S and with this hot season you are craving some rich and delicious MANGONEADAS.???

Wheelchair accessibility: The establishment is adapted to serve people with physical disabilities. (:“

“The food here is delicious and the service is always fast I think I’ve tried everything on the menu and it never disappoints my favorite meat is the asada Al pastor and birria
Ooohhh and they have one of the best champurados ever make sure to give them a try you’ll be a returning customer!!“

“Great breakfast and service.👍👍“

“I have been coming to this place for years and I quite like it. The only bad thing is when I am served by a waitress who always has a bitter face and the service she provides is terrible. I think that lady should be in the kitchen so she can get bitter on her own and Don't spoil the tasty pupusas, sir, owner of the restaurant, think that you will be losing customers because everything is excellent from there on out.“

“This place is a hidden gem. The staff are super nice great customer service as soon as you walk I'm glad we came across it. We took 10 pupusas to go and ate there it was all freshly made as you order. You won't regret coming here. We will be coming back Thank you
