“We tried the Dine LA course and it was our favorite Dine LA experience by far! We enjoyed all of the different food items and the portions were quite generous. Our favorites were the Brussels sprouts, salmon dry miso, tempura shrimp, Kobe black pepper, salmon truffle roll and butter cake. Our reservation was at 6pm and even though we didn’t dine at the bar, they allowed us to order the Fusion cocktail with the happy hour price.

Also our server, Micah, was phenomenal and really attentive.

We had such a great experience with the food, ambiance, and incredible service!“

“I love the vibe there. The food and drinks were good. I love their happy hour. I would definitely go back to this place. I have to admit, it can get packed. The parking out there is okay. They have valet, but I parked at one of the public parking spots. When I got there, it was empty, however, I came around close to around 7:00. Later on more people started to come.“

James and his staff are a 10+ (no exaggeration). They greet you like family and take care of you like only an owner runned business could. I’m hooked and can’t stop eating here!!!! Was just there for Mother’s Day and returning next week to share with a friend. A MUST TRY.“

“I recently saw this place opened up and had to try it! Betsy (owner) was super nice to us and told us some of the plans she has for this new location.??

Now for the food...fire. I got the chicken tacos (two orders) and my girlfriend got the carne asada tacos. Salsa...on point. Taco size...on point. They have great drinks too!

This place has a vibey atmosphere and I really appreciate them staying open late! There's nothing better than a late night food run for tacos.

We definitely plan on visiting again!

**UPDATE: I am not paid nor compensated in anyway for my reviews. I am a verified reviewer with millions of views of my photos and reviews globally. For another reviewer to insinuate such a thing is comedic. Yes, the music might be loud, it's supposed to be. CA tax is 9%, pay what they charge or leave?, and lastly do not come with any expectations. Enjoy whatever you're presented with and life will be much better.“

“I got the flautas- the servings are BIG- what everyone eslse got on my table was BIG. The food is good and the place is big, it’s nice and they had great music. Only thing is they aren’t “allowed to split the bill” if you’re a big party. They aLao, include the gratuity in the final bill. I went on a Saturday night. That should be told to the customers ahead of time so they know.“
