“STEPH JUDGEMENT: Charming atmosphere and good food, but slightly uneven service. We were staying at the hotel and decided to try it for breakfast. It had an adorable retro 1930s vibe going on, which I thoroughly enjoyed. I ordered a coffee and their smoked salmon and latke (same as hash browns), and was pleasantly surprised by an unexpected poached egg. The hubby ordered two scrambled eggs and "cool ranch" hash browns (basically cool ranch dust). Everything was delicious, but after the server dropped off our food she was nowhere to be seen for a while, and it took some time to settle our bill. Luckily we weren't in a hurry, and I believe they had just opened, so I'm sure the service will improve as they get their bearings. I'd definitely like to try them again when next in the area.“
“This Mercado has so much to offer. Your pallet will not be disappointed with the many different restaurants you'll fine in here from some of the best see food to Oxacan food. Artesanias de Mexico are one thing you'll be thrill to find here.“
“I wish it was possible to give this place higher than 5 stars. We had such an incredible dinner during our weekend trip to LA.First off; the atmosphere is awesome. The open dining room, along with the lighting and music make the perfect setup for a fun/modern environment.We started off with cocktails and both really enjoyed them. For appetizers we chose the pork belly sliders based off of reviews online. I personally wasn’t blow away by them, but my girlfriend really enjoyed them. We also decided to share the truffle flatbread and WOW. This was quite easily the best part of the meal. The dough was perfect and the truffle sauce on top was incredible. Do yourself a favor and order this!For the entrees; we both opted for one of the pasta dishes. Sticking with the same theme my girlfriend got the truffle pasta. She absolutely loved it, I tried a bite and was jealous I didn’t order that myself. I chose the sweet potato gnocchi with short rib and it was very good. It probably could have used some more salt.And just when we thought the meal couldn’t get any better…we ordered desert. We were going to get the churros since many reviews online talked about them, BUT based off of our server’s recommendation we ordered the chocolate cake instead. No words…just delicious. We were so content after that. We both are in agreement that this was one of the best meals we’ve had at a restaurant in a while.“
“Tapas spot on Main Street. Came here for a Valentine’s dinner and they had live music out in the heated patio. Service was especially slow (but our waiter was nice), but the bright side is that you can have an especially leisurely meal. Reservations can be made online in advance. We ordered the mushroom croquettes, Catalan chicken, tortilla española, jamon wrapped dates, and mac and cheese with bacon. The dishes were good but the best were the dates and the mad and cheese. The tortilla española came with a salsa and an aioli on the side but the aioli did taste sour (I think one of the ingredients used was past its shelf life). Other than that, it’s a good spot for an intimate dinner or date night.“
“When the yearning for authentic Spanish cuisine beckons, "La Paella" emerges as a culinary beacon, brilliantly capturing the essence of Spain's rich gastronomic landscape. From the moment we stepped through the doors, the ambiance transported us back to the vibrant streets of Spain, enveloped in warmth and the tantalizing aroma of spices.The service was nothing short of exemplary, with staff members who not only knew the menu inside out but also shared their enthusiasm for the flavors and traditions of their dishes. Each recommendation was spot on, adding to the overall delightful experience.The star of the evening was undoubtedly the squid ink paella. Its bold flavors and perfectly cooked seafood were a testament to the chef's mastery. Each grain of rice was infused with the deep, oceanic essence of squid ink, creating a dish that was as visually arresting as it was delectable. Every plate brought to our table was a hit, making it a thoroughly enjoyable dining experience for the whole family."La Paella" has certainly set a high standard for Spanish cuisine outside of Spain. It's a gem worth returning to, and we are already planning our next visit to delve deeper into the menu. If you're seeking an authentic taste of Spain, this is a place you won't want to miss.“

“After living in Spain for three years, it's difficult to find authentic Spanish food in the US. However, Teleféric exceeded all my expectations! The food was authentic and delectable, the service was fantastic, and the atmosphere was darling. The paella was better than some I even had in Spain! Can't wait to visit again.“
“Originally we wanted to go to San Laurel but they only open for dinner. So Agua viva was our second option but, it turned out as a present surprise. Outdoor seat was a bit chilly but good vibe with LA downtown look down view. Service is nice. Good Spanish wine list, foods are just amazing. Never disappointed by Jose Andrés restaurants. Everything was great, and the best was the dessert. Very creative, nice presentation and of course delicious. Highly recommend this place and we will revisit por supuesto!Parking: Valid parking is $15 with validation.“
“Inside this small shop lies wonderful food!Family recipes and a desire to share fresh, authentic Mexican food and sweet treats have been a gift to the lovers of exceptional flavors. Tortillas? Fresh and made here.Main dishes? We had wonderful Birria de Res and Carne Asada, with flavorful refried beans (not canned, mind you) and Savory Mexican rice. Such excellent food is sure to make this little shop a favorite for you and yours. The owners are dedicated to preserving family recipes and offer everything to make your meal memorable from Jarritos sodas, to fresh Horchata, wonderful main dishes and flavorful desserts. If I sound effusive in my praise, it is because this little comfortable and inviting shop offers quality food that simply blows away larger restaurants or any chain shop I've ever tasted. There is simply none better in my humble opinion. Try them today, you won't regret it!“
“This Spanish is delicious. I am going to recommend it to you in any of the cities it is in.I recommend the entire menu, but my favorite is the TATEL risotto with truffle, it is incredible!!! The potato tortilla (TATEL tortilla) is not far behind.If you like it, accompany your meal with a delicious Spanish wine.“
“i tried the chicken empanada and my bf had the beef jalapeño empanada. both were good and were stuffed with the filling. i felt the chicken empanada was a tad dry though we came ~45min before they closed, so there wasn't much of a line. although they were closing soon, the empanadas still tasted pretty fresh“
“I went to Margot's for a dinner my job was sponsoring and it was really nice. From the little shops on the street level to the atmosphere of the actual restaurant. I would describe the design style as maybe organic boho. It was really cute! The bathrooms were really nice too. Unisex though. They reserved the private patio for us and it was nice and secluded. Someone that was at the diner said they were there for a birthday dinner just the weekend before and it was in the main dining room but it was noisy and people kept walking through their party to get to the bathroom. So if you want to go here and want a private, quiet experience then reserve the private patio. If you want to meet other people or don't mind the noise of other people and the kitchen then the main dining room is fine. The food looked and tasted gourmet. I loved the presentation.Kid-friendliness: I would not call this a kid friendly place maybe more during the day. I was there in the evening with adults drinking.Wheelchair accessibility: From the valet parking there is a ramp up to the elevator. So it is nicely wheelchair accessible.“
“Hole in the wall spot for mariscos. I was in the mood for some ice cold micheladas and shrimp empanadas, which I've enjoyed in the past. Decided to dine in and had the 32 oz michelada, shrimp tacos, and molcajete de mariscos. You should order the molcajete anytime it's on the menu. It arrived with the oily broth bubbling over and stuff with octopus, mussels, shrimp, fish, and rice and garnished with 2 crab legs and a fried fish filet. This was sooo good but with the amount of oil, definitely something you eat once in a while. The michelada was good though I wasn't expecting a bottle upside down and inside my glass. I wouldn't order it like that again for hygienic reasons. The fish tacos were good but not what I was expecting as I thought I ordered the empanadas. Regardless of being served something else from what I thought I ordered, it was really good. Service is a bit slow but the ladies were nice and checked in on us. Not sure if there's a parking lot in the back but I always park on the street.“
“When craving pupusas and pastelitos this is the place to go. Not too mention their " en salada " drink. So delicious!! I know times are hard for everyone but I appreciate them staying open specially right now that it's hot and I don't feel like cooking with this hot weather! They always have my food ready to go and it's always accurate. Thank you!!“
“This place was really nice. We took the grandmas for a birthday dinner and they had a great time. Food was yummy. I think I would pass on the paella to be honest. It wasn't bad but paella should be a wet consistency and this one was dry. For 4 people and 1 glass of wine we spent about $350“
“I believe a 5 star rating is not good enough to describe how tremendously great this place is in every single way!The place itself is very neat! Very nice decorated and it even features music of Camilo Sesto. Hopefully sometime they'll play Sabina and Perales ? (j/k)The service is OUTSTANDING! That includes each and every single person who works in the place; kitchen, front, and one of the owners (a lady with glasses). They are VERY CARING about their customers! They always greet me with a smile and a welcoming attitude.The prices are decent, what I like the most are the portions they serve (very satisfying!)One time they made me wait (I didn't mind) and they gave me an empanada as a courtesy.Even though I live in Inglewood, this place is worth the trip, they made a new frequent customer.Congrats to everyone who works here!!“
“YummyThe tallarines verdes, large portion & worth the price.Vegetarian options: Order dishes without meat & you’ll be fine.There’s a large selection to choose fromParking: It’s in a small plaza and it had a good amount of spotsKid-friendliness: I’ve seen kids at the spot :)“
“First time coming here. My mom ordered the mariscada, but she hardly liked it. The shrimp was kinda raw, and the soup didn't have much flavor. But everything else was good. I ordered plato de pollo with rice, fried platains, and beans super good. I totally recommend it.“
“First time here. I got two meals and already had the first one today for lunch and sooooooo delicious! The representative this morning recommended me one of the meals and I just have to say the food is really good and the representative was helpful and I appreciate her help!“
