“everything is good delicious delicious delicious delicious“

“The food is good, the service not so much is terrible to be precise I tried ordering on the phone, I was told to wait whoever answered the phone just put the phone down I can hear them talk in the background and she was arguing with one of the customers who wanted to make a change in his order that he had not paid for yet, she claimed that she had already posted his order and could not make any changes, as this maybe understandable her demeanor was so unprofessional she was being rude, to end it here my order over the phone was never taken after waiting for 5 mim they simply hanged up, this isn’t the first time that this has happened to me. Even if you order online when you go to pick up your order they’ll ignore.“

“Great food and even better service“

“Decided to try this place out and wanted to try different items for my own personal knowledge. As seen in the photos I got ahead of myself and started eating before taking pictures. I got a cheeseburger combo which comes with fries and a drink, 2 tacos, and 2 pupusas. I tried everything individually and tried the sauces on their own to fill taste the flavor. The cheeseburger combo was great and flavorful. The fries were made to perfection with the perfect crisp. The pupusas were very good too along with the curtido and salsa. Salsa is very flavorful and the curtido has a kick of heat to it. The tacos were good with the perfect blend of flavor even without the salsa. Tries the green salsa on its own and it was so good and flavorful. Def going to come back to eat here again. The lady cooking and taking orders is so sweet and she makes her food with love. I told her imma try a bit of everything to see what I like and she said I’d love it all. She wasn’t wrong. For all this food that can feed about 3 people, I spent $23. Which is a great deal from my pov. Went back the next day for a carne asada plate and paid extra to get some grilled shrimp on it. Was definitely worth it and it was so good.“

“su calidad de comida buen sabor Chapín un pedacito de tu tierra en el extranjero no te lo pierdas excelencia“

“Love their chicken 🎯is the bomb💕 blew Pollo Loco out the water🍗😁👍“

“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. .“

“With my wedding just a month away, I’ve been having so much fun preparing the menu and exploring different restaurants to create a beautiful variety of flavors and nationalities for our reception. I sampled chicken from four different spots around Los Angeles—each one had something going for it, but none felt quite right for our big day. One was a bit dry, another a little too crispy, and another slightly too salty.
Just when I was considering renting a large barbecue grill and cooking the chicken myself, a friend suggested I try this restaurant. It’s a true hole-in-the-wall spot tucked along a very busy street—exactly the kind of hidden gem you might overlook. In fact, on the day I stopped by, there were multiple emergency vehicles less than a block away. That might make some people hesitate, but I decided to trust the recommendation and give it a try.
I ordered the half chicken meal—and I’m so glad I did! It was absolutely delicious. The flavor, tenderness, and seasoning were spot on. Even my son agreed, and he hadn’t liked any of the other chicken options I brought home for him to taste.
In the end, the incredible taste made it completely worth stepping a little outside my comfort zone. Without a doubt, this is the chicken we’ll be serving at our wedding reception. I’m so happy to have found the perfect place!“

““OMG, my sister recommended this restaurant as I picked her up from LAX, the food was authentic real Mexican food, beyond exquisite. The place gave me vibes of a fondita in Mexico, which I loved. The portions are perfect, the handmade tortillas were fire!! The quesadillas, beans and beef, chicharron guisado where delicious!!! Please try their pumpkin horchata!! The staff are so friendly too. I spent $40 on my sister and I. Well worth it!!!“

“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!“

“Comida demaciada Rica.. Como hecha en casa, karaoke los Jueves Caldo de Pata Menudo los fines de semana. Desayuno almuerzo y cena...ahhjjjj provecho!.“

“I picked up a few empanadas here — the classic beef, a chicken avocado, and the apple for dessert. The beef had a decent flavor, though the filling was a bit uneven at times, and the chicken avocado was pleasant but didn’t stand out. The apple empanada was sweet and cinnamon-y, but a little dry on the edges. The crust is flaky and crisp, which is nice, but some fillings felt a bit sparse compared with the price.

Ordering is fast since it’s mainly takeout from a window, but that means there’s no real indoor dining vibe. There is a bench nearby and some space to stand, but no proper outdoor seating.

Service was friendly enough, though it didn’t feel especially personal. Parking is metered on the street and can fill up during busier times. Kids could enjoy the smaller portions, but with the lack of seating it’s better for quick bites than sit-down meals. Waiting time was short, but flavor consistency and a few crowded moments kept this from being excellent.“

“The truth is everything. Das has the best Mac n cheese and the Ribs n Brisket are the best in the West.“

“Good locally owned place to eat. The food was good and the customer services was excellent. Kudos to the owner for making us feel so welcomed. ❤️“

“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!“

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

“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.“
