    Quesabirria
    Anthony R.

    This is my first time visiting this food truck. This is the food struck on Main St and 92th in Los Angeles. I think they have more than one spot. I live down the block. I always see this spot but never had a chance to stop by until a couple of days ago. I gave them a shot. The quesabirria was pretty huge for $11. I feel like he hook it up a bit. And, the quesabirria was delicious. I would definitely return for the tacos.

    Bueno la primera vez que fui a este lugar estuvo bien la comida estaba bien echa Pero pasé a comer a este lugar otra vez Y no se si estaban enojados oh estaban de mal humor quien sabe Pero ordené un birria burrito pero estába mal echo parecía que no lo doblaron bien Pero bueno ojalá que no les pase a los que van a este lugar a comer

    Consomme with bone
    J S.

    I'm not sure what is wrong with f****** Yelp, because this would be my third review of the same place the stupid app keeps making me redo my review. So I'm just going to make this short. Small place, horrible parking, salty lamb, salty consomme soup. The pork bone in the soup was bomb! The soup had too much rice and beans in it, and the Mango lemonade was delicious. Most of the staff speak Spanish and don't really speak English, they don't accept credit card or debit card.

    Tacos de carnitas

    This is just fabulous. If you dont like lamb, this is probably not for you. But if you give it a shot, it will be great! I always get the broth (tastes amazing like you are drinking rich lamb broth plus they add some rice and garbanzo beans) and order half a pound of marinated belly meat (pancita) and a pound of lamb meat.(I go with my family so maybe order a bit less, 4 people total). The tortillas are also hand made! They also give you salsa and guacamole and onions and lemons. Esta super riquisimo. Ordena la carne y el conzomé sabe a borrego bien echo.

    The Mexican food isn't the best quality of food. The only good thing here was their Horchata. Service is okay.

We kicked things off with the queso fundido, and wow, it was absolutely delicious! Rich, melty, and packed with flavor, it was the perfect way to start the evening. For my entrée, I ordered the cochinita pibil, which was incredibly tender and saucy in the best way. My husband ordered the short rib, and it was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. On the side, we shared the papas bravas and esquite, both of which complemented our dishes perfectly. The drinks truly elevated the night. My husband and I both love mezcal, and Kateen delivered. I ordered the Valentine's Day "Zona Romántica," which featured mezcal and wine almost like a sangria, but completely unique and beautifully balanced. My husband had the "Gypsy Fever," also mezcal-based, and it was smoky, smooth, and refreshing. Between the food, cocktails, and ambiance, it made for such a romantic and memorable evening. We'll absolutely be back!!

    This was my first time dining at this restaurant. The server was great, the food was delicious, and…read morethe atmosphere was amazing. However, the reason I'm giving 2 stars is because of the valet parking experience. First, I was charged $25 even though the sign clearly stated that valet parking is $17 for the first 3 hours, and $25 after 3 hours. Our reservation was at 6:30 PM, we arrived on time, and we left before 9 PM, so the charge did not make sense. When I asked the valet attendant, he kept saying, "because you dined there," without giving any clear explanation. If it is actually a flat rate for restaurant guests, then that should be clearly stated upfront to customers. Second, when I got into my car, I noticed that someone had touched the navigation settings because the compass direction and display were different from what I normally use. I do not understand why there was any need to adjust or touch my navigation system at all. I really think the restaurant needs to improve and better manage its valet parking system. Honestly, it felt like I was being charged a random price just because I was told, "you dined there." If there is a flat valet rate for restaurant guests, that information should be clearly communicated upfront instead of leaving customers confused at the end.

Now when you pull up originally you might think, "am I in the right place" but once you park and get into the courtyard, it is LOVELY! Amazing ambience! There is a bocce set up, string lights. It is a little slice of oasis in the middle of the fashion district. The restaurant itself - beautiful. I couldn't ask for more. Absolutely perfect in my book. Beautiful plants hanging, perfect Spanish music in the background (any place playing Natalia LaFourcade is a win). The drinks were great! I had the jungle bird which was fun. Food was so good too. The whipped beans are the star! We had the guacamole which was tasty, great tostadas with it. The arepas were good but the pork belly was a little too fatty (I know pork belly is always fatty) to the point the fat muted the flavored for the arepa a bit, but still delicious. The empanadas were great and as someone who lived in South America and ate empanadas every day, these really took me back to my Paraguay days. The squash blossoms were light and perfectly fried. Unfortunately my friends had gone to Funke the night before so they were comparing the squash blossoms and Funke won out, but they still liked Dama's! Small plates were enough for the 3 of us. The service was quick and attentive. Parking was easy for us. I will definitely be back!

We initially had one server who brought us water and took our appetizer order, but then disappeared for quite some time without checking back in. At that point, I even went looking for a manager or hostess and couldn't find anyone available. Eventually, we were given a new server, but she came across as extremely rude and inattentive. What upset me most was the overall lack of communication and attentiveness throughout the experience. It made what was supposed to be a special Mother's Day outing feel frustrating and disappointing. Sadly, this experience soured my impression enough that I don't see myself returning.

The margarita flight was super cute and actually strong lol every flavor was good. Perfect for trying different drinks instead of just picking one. The asada burrito was packed with meat and flavor. The steak was juicy, seasoned really well, and the portions were worth it. The chicken taco was simple but sooo good and flavorful, but the Korean BBQ taco??? Yeah that was my favorite. The mix of sweet and savory with the sauce was insane. The vibes were fun, the food came out fresh, and the staff was really nice. Definitely a spot I'd come back to again. 10/10

The building is an original piece of the City's history, boasting a menu that features their famous burritos that vary in size from a regular to a huge party size beast that can feed several. I tried the Hollenbeck and the Okie burritos on two separate occasions via pick up, as aforementioned, the service was quick, convenient and the pick up window is seamless, parking is located next to the structure and I haven't had problems getting there. Hollenbeck was good but I definitely enjoyed the Okie burrito more, I ordered the "original" size once and didn't seem to learn my lesson the second time, these burritos can feed two in Original size. They offer a "Mini" version which would be satisfactory for one person. My favorite thing about these burritos is how "home-made" they are, the salsas and meats are fresh and taste like they came out of an abuelitas kitchen. I still need to try the crunchy tacos and nachos which look great, I recommend trying this classic establishment at least once if you're in the area.
