Nice Flores

Can’t wait to go again. 5 stars all around! Beautiful restaurant with exquisite cuisine— Oh my God Red Snapper tacos! Also, they have a parking lot and an excellent happy hour. This is actual authentic Mexican food with handmade tortillas. **As an aside, be leery of OTHER restaurants that say “authentic” in large bold font on their menu. There are too many that have dishes that impressed locals 40 years ago. Taste buds and expectations are higher now** Cascabel, on the other hand, understands that expectations are higher now. I’ve been to quite a few Mexican restaurants in the area and this is exceptional, delicious, high-quality Mexican food. Special thanks to Tyler and Jenna for great service at the bar.

We were visiting friends and they took us to Cascabel. The restaurant was comfortable and beautiful. The service was top notch. Stayed for a while and never felt rushed. We has several types of tacos, flaunts and cocktails. Everything was delicious. Cascabel is a great gathering place or romantic dinner place. Don't hesitate to try it. YUM

We always love Cascabel, a regular go-to place. Superior on all counts.

Vegetarian options: Menu descriptions make it clear what is vegetarian and there are options in every category.

Dietary restrictions: I am gluten free and also eating on an auto-immune protocol and find options for me here that are delicious.

Parking: The parking lot is small behind the restaurant, which is behind the dentist's office down a narrow driveway. However, there is usually available street parking. Free after 6pm.

Gratitude Attracts Blessings - Sam

Hidden Gem ? Truly hidden, but worth looking for it. Very old school charm and warm ambiance.Every dining experience starts with service. Good service can make even bad food taste good. The service here made everything absolutely delicious.From the Hostesses to the Manager Joe, the smiles, the friendly service was superb. Our server was Olga whose recommendations were spot on.The Mexican Cornbread was hilarious as it was topped with a giant beef short rib.The sirloin steak was deceptive as it seemed like a large portion of beef on a soft Taco, but it was the most flavorful steak which didn't need anything more. Absolutely delicious.The duck confit was uniquely Mexican. Never had guacamole on duck confit and seemed out of place until you take a bite and realize how all the flavors including the goat cheese come together.The fried plantains served as a subtle pallet cleanser. The lime aid, margaritas and even the bottles of table water, all completed the cuisine experience.Highly recommend this restaurant. Will definitely be backOur ser

This place is exceptional. What a hidden gem. The tacos, the salsa, the Guac and even the dessert. I also appreciate the decor! Don’t let where it is located fool you, it’s randomly behind a dental office- but trust, it’s a gem!!!

This is one of our favorite restaurants in LA! BUT… my wife gets sick when we eat there. As a person with celiac, she usually doesn’t have a problem with Mexican food. But for some reason, they make their corn tortillas on the same machine as their flour tortillas. And for someone who needs to eat gluten free, this is not good enough. I hope they update their methods, everyone deserves to experience the charm of this place.

Dietary restrictions: Their kitchen takes little account of celiacs and people with gluten allergies.
