Latin American Restaurants near Universal City

“delicious food and large portions 🙂“

“Best food in town and sports merchandise“

“Amazing food and atmosphere“

“Possibly the best and freshest Mexican style seafood in LA Think fine from a James Beard award winning chef and kitchen on the very casual setting of a food court It’s busy so get in early as the line to order grows quickly Plenty of parking with extra space at rear of the car park for the overflow This is a must try if you are in the area“

“A really lovely spot with top notch food and great service. We love Octavio and Sam. Everything on the menu is mouth watering and fits my gluten free diet. Tastewise, it’s one of the best underrated spots in LA. I drink their green ceviche sauce like a soup and dream about their scallops with uni. I do wish they had some more filling items, maybe like a cold soup, or a chayote, jicama ceviche or a more substantial salad. During the pandemic they made an incredible seafood Michelada with uni but they don’t offer it now.

Don’t skip dessert. The crispy peanut butter balls are special.“

“Comida salvadoreña deliciosa me gustan las pupusas los desayuno 🍳“

“Good locally owned place to eat. The food was good and the customer services was excellent. Kudos to the owner for making us feel so welcomed. ❤️“

“we went there for a quick bite and some drinks, our bartender Wyatt was so lovely, he turned my vegeterian friend to a pescetarian! he recommended the octopus, which we both really loved. the atmosphere was great too, definitely worth a try!!“

“The entire experience was wonderful the food , drinks and service will definitely have me returning. Even the Owner was so friendly personable, came out spoke with us about different options on the menu, sang happy Birthday to my sister and even a picture with our was absolutely a worthwhile outing.“

“Hands down, some of the most delicious food I've eaten lately! They utilize only the freshest ingredients and ensure that each dish is properly prepared. The branzino was very memorable. "Must try!"
From appetizers to sweets, this restaurant well surpassed our expectations!“

“Wow wow wow I can’t believe how good the breakfast burritos are. Also had the pancakes and they were fluffy and perfect. This is definitely the new breakfast burrito spot in Burbank. 👌🏻“

“su calidad de comida buen sabor Chapín un pedacito de tu tierra en el extranjero no te lo pierdas excelencia“

“The waitress was very professional and explained the menu in a great way. Try it out! You won't regret it.

My only negative (which didn't really affect the food) was that I wanted it more spicy. I understand most people don't like high levels of spice so I am not holding that against them.“

“I need to get something good I got a caldo de res , the ladies are so serious they are very good with customer service , everything was good that it comes with the plate👍🏻👍🏻

Parking: Good food all the time I go there to eat !!!“

“The food was D-lish-us. Their beans are the best beans I've had. And I love my beans. I'm not usually huge on pasta salad, but I was a big fan of theirs. The server lady was very nice and competent and they were giving out free roses for mothers day!I highly recommend this place for delicious food.“

“Good Cheese and Meat Empanadas, I got a Milanesa sandwich to go because the place closes at 6 PM. A shame because you are just getting off of work, maybe if they had a bigger crowd, so please support this restaurant and delicatessen.
FYI. Parking in the back of the restaurant. Got to go through the back alley. Free parking.“

“This is honestly the BEST BRUNCH I've ever had. So creative, and lots of healthy and allergy friendly options. They have made the most amazing roasted carrots dish I've ever had or even dreamed of. Cannot recommend this brunch enough“

“Wow. This is a hidden gem in DTLA. Highly recommend unless you're a jerk. Ha. Great drinks, great food and amazing service. Felt like I was just hanging with old friends having a very enjoyable evening. This is gonna be my go-to spot anytime I am hanging downtown.“

“muy buen pollo los recomiendo“

“The tacos are delicious. I didn’t prefer the chicharron taco; my assumption was the pork fat would be crispy, but it was blubbery. I didn’t eat it. This was probably a mistake on my end.

The pork tamale was delicious as was the steak taco. The tamale wasn’t dry at all (I’ve seen other reviews saying it was dry). The service was so friendly and kind. I loved the artwork, but I did want a salsa bar. I’ll be back absolutely, and recommend the cantaloupe agua fresca.“

“This restaurant has the most delicious homemade food I tried. My wife loves the posole and I love the Menudo. We try to go there every weekend to eat some of their delicious food they make. I recommend it 100%.“

“I really like this spot for "to-go" mexican food. I've been coming here for years and seeing the same faces. This is a solid spot where the service is always friendly and the food is delicious. I enjoy their chicken salad, camarones, and tacos. The salsa and chips here are soo good. Thank you! ❤️“

“Found this place on accident. So happy i did! The variety of empanadas were great. They were warm when the boxed them for me. Everything is fresh made. I ordered over a dozen. I recommend the dozen for the savings. While I was there I had the spinach & egg. It was yummy! The gentleman who helped me was very nice & helpful. I don't live anywhere near this place but will definitely be coming back.“

“Un pedacito de mi bello el Salvador El ambiente perfecto para Compartir en familia Un exelente servicio Más el menú con diversas comidas que delicia Amigos clientes y Familiares Los invito a que prueben la Rica comida En la cabañita“

“Super cute place with very chic vibes! Delicious drinks and great food - came here for coffee(matcha) and brunch - everything was on point! Now I want to come back in the evening for cocktails - they’ve got an amazing cocktail menu as well!“

“Comida demaciada Rica.. Como hecha en casa, karaoke los Jueves Caldo de Pata Menudo los fines de semana. Desayuno almuerzo y cena...ahhjjjj provecho!.“

“They treated me very kindly and the food is very delicious. I ordered 2 plates of roast beef and a plate of roast chicken. They served it with beans, rice, chives, elbow or fresh salad and tortillas. We were very satisfied. For me, the price of the dish is good. .“

“A small venue, with seating available inside and outside the venue. The service was pleasant, the staff was very friendly, the service was fast, the dishes have a very good homemade flavor, the dishes are also large, the price is very affordable, they have a bathroom to wash your hands which is very necessary, so I highly recommend them .“

“muy buen pollo los recomiendo“

“One of my favorite restaurants authentic Latin cuisine. I have been coming here for over 30 years and was so sad when it closed down during the pandemic. So glad it reopened! Can’t wait 😜 to go back. I give it 5 stars for sure!“

“Authentic Mexican food. Best Magaritas along with good music and service“

“Thank you 🙏🏽 for your generosity pollo campero and staff from the laboratory here at Pacifica hospital of the valley!!!“

“Im giving all 5 stars because although it is a hole in the wall we were able to eat and enjoy our food. The food was so authentic down to their horchata. It was some of the best salvadorean food I've had. Prices are a bargain great for takeout! Customer service was outstanding. Hands down great salvadorean food.“

“Buenos mataniños. (Y)“

“Love this place, makes me feel like I went back in time...Definitely a hidden gem! The food: chicken wings, pizza, pasta, etc... any foodie would appreciate. The selection of beers � and wine � are varied and last but not least, the SERVICE, we are spoiled Everytime, the staff goes above and beyond! I highly recommend stopping there before any type of LA event.“

“Viaje a California de Seattle Wa, comí en el churrasco Chapín Riquísima la comida y el servicio muy bueno súper recomendado.“

“Had a great meal here before a show at the Paramount. My husband had fajitas and I had the potato dish with added rosemary potatoes 🤩. I couldn’t finish mine - very filling but absolutely delicious. The proprietor is welcoming and helpful. We will definitely return and I will make more sensible choices!“

“Delicious hot food, refreshing drinks, and fresh papusas. Friendly, fast service. Some entres tend to be very light on salt. A request I have for this place is to please place bilingual signage in front of each food item for easy identification and ordering. Although, they do have a menu on the wall, it's difficult to read for some. Other than that, food is fresh, hot, and delicious!“
