LA FLAMA Culver City

Waitress must have been having a bad personal day, but that’s not the reason I decided to post a review. Their food was bland and overpriced, and to make it a worst impression they served me expired meat. I ordered the taco plate yesterday and today I been suffering from stomach pains all morning. I won’t be ordering from them again.

Presentation for the food is good, unfortunately, the meats have a terrible sour taste as if they are rotten. I tried the champurrado and it was not good at all. It lacked a lot of flavor and tasted watered down. Really disappointed I wasted my money on this place. I really wanted to give it a chance.

Wow, was I fooled. The picture they posted of the breakfast torta looked appetizing. Upon the first bite, I realized that I had been duped. I could only eat two bites even though I was super hungry. I threw away the rest. It was the most vile thing I think I have ever ordered. The sandwich was soggy , the eggs were drenched in oil, the cheese lumpy, and the taste was horrible. I didn’t bother calling them to get it replaced because didn’t trust they know how to make anything well. Will never go back.

Very friendly and prompt service, extremely well-decorated and cozy dining room, and the food is ridiculously fresh with juicy, flavorful meats, beautifully blended seasonings and extremely fresh vegetables. I had the taco plate and I was WOWED by every bite! My partner also let me taste their La Flama plate with the asada, and holy COW. (seriously. that is some fantastic beef, it was melt-in-your-mouth the perfect texture.) Massive soda selection, their hot chocolate had a wonderful spice to it, and the portions are all extremely generous for the price. Definitely a must-stop if you’re in the area, it’s a cozy hole-in-the-wall treat.

I do not recommend eating there, since in the food I ordered there were 2 cockroaches. We had ordered 2 orders, they only refunded us for one, very bad hygiene, and service

Great place for breakfast or

Chips we were served were stale. We got the chilequiles con asada and the rice tasted like it was just out the microwave, the chips for the chilequiles were also stale and the asada was dry. The drinks were good, the salsa was good, but overall I wouldn't come here

Friendly staff, reasonable prices, and decent food.

The place is not appealing, but the huevos rancheros are the bomb, so good a bit spicy if you are not used to the heat.
