I went to a small press comic event, which was great. The problem you l was that it was after dark and there were no lights outside to see by. I didn't know what this area is usually used for, but I would have thought that with the space rental that SOME lighting would have been provided.

Pretty venue, but there were a lot of stairs (definitely NOT wheelchair friendly), it was a bit difficult to find from where Google maps led us (the back for some reason), and the sound had some interference at first, but that was luckily resolved before the main act. Amazing and welcoming staff who definitely made the night better.

🌹 Everyone considerate and nice. Lizzy in Reservations is an excellent intro to this lovely experience. Paella, salad, gazpacho, chocolate mousse cake -- outstanding! The show is entertaining with true professionals in beautiful costumes. The lead lady dancer gave a brief and fascinating talk about Flamenco terms, turns, techniques. The three of us enjoyed a fabulous evening! 🌹

Dinner and flamenco in an intimate, historic venue—El Cid is pure Old Hollywood charm. The live performance is passionate and authentic, and the food is surprisingly good for a dinner show. The courtyard patio is also great for a quiet drink before the show starts. It feels like a secret tucked into Sunset Boulevard. Perfect for a unique night out.

Came here for a date night for the Flamenco show.
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our experience! The food was delicious—I had the salmon, and he had the steak. We both loved our dishes (minus the dry broccoli, lol). Our waiter was the absolute sweetest—warm, attentive, and incredibly efficient. The show was fantastic, especially the intermission where they shared the history of Flamenco, which added so much depth to the performance. I’d definitely recommend this!
Came to El Cid for the first time last night for the flamenco and dinner show! The dancers were absolutely amazing and as a flamenco student I was mesmerized by them. You can tell that this place has a lot of history and feels like you are walking into a cave in Andalusia. It’s beautiful! We brought my grandma with us and I will say that this place is definitely not handicap friendly. The bathroom stalls are super small and getting in and out of the restaurant was super challenging. Steps everywhere and there is no near by parking, not even for handicap. So keep that in mind! Food was ok, nothing to rave about but the service is wonderful and the show makes up for what they lack. A place you need to visit once in your life.

My experience trying to attend an event here was incredibly frustrating. We arrived at the venue and literally could not find an entrance. All we saw was a locked back door and a parking lot that was completely inaccessible. We tried calling the provided number for help and directions, but no one answered. We ended up missing the entire show because we simply couldn't get in. This level of inaccessibility and lack of support is unacceptable. I'm extremely disappointed and would not recommend this venue.

Excellent experience GARBAGEBARBIE & GRANDSON. SEE them both of you can. Ps tell Google maps your front door isn't down the sketchy back alley. There were so many people at the bac

one lady is really mean for no reason. i don’t remember her name but you’ll know when you have the disfortune of interacting with her. everyone else is a vibe but she really ruins it to be a horrible experience.

Worst line in town. Waited 2.5 hours in the line for HotDog Sundays and never got in. Avoid if you don't like lines. So many people waited 90 minutes to 2 hours in line to just leave. Terrible line management.
Amazing experience, great food. Bucket list💯
