    'Juevos devorciados' all I can say is OMG!!! Sooo good! Must try! So crispy and delicious.

    Been ordering from them on Grubhub and the food has been delicious so we decided to go and dine in this time. Cute place and great service! Must try if you're in the area.

    Breakfast burrito with chorizo
    Cassandra C.

    I've ordered this on postmates a few times and it never fails to deliver. My favorite go to is the breakfast burrito with chorizo (hold the beans) which comes with two sides of salsa. The burrito comes fully loaded and you'll definitely have enough leftover to save for another day. I'm picky with my breakfast burritos, but this one is perfectly juicy and the proportions of cheese/meat/egg is spot on. I also like their beef enchiladas which comes with a delicious red sauce, rice, hold the beans, sour cream, lettuce and tomato. I have ordered a regular burrito with rice before, but found it not to be to my liking - too bland. I'll stick with the breakfast ones.

    Delicious Mexican food: nachos, Tortas and breakfast burritos are the best here! Friendly service too!! Horchata is the bomb.

    Combo #3. Two Enchiladas
    Martin M.

    The food was excellent. The service was good. The ambiance was great. I recently took a friend of mine out to dinner at the original location on Western Ave, and we had a great experience. The cheese and onion enchilada platter was superb and the margarita she ordered was wonderful. Lastly, the restaurant prices are not too expensive, but not ideal for someone on a budget or with a big family.

    Fast mexican foods and rice plate entrees. Their drinks also come with one free refill which is great. Lots of combos come with either a free fries or drink. No free parking - just street or you can park in the home depot/food 4 less parking lot across the street. The short beef ribs plates are amazing! I like how they offer a big variety and combo platters to offer a savings. They also have fruit Fresca, unlimited do it yourself toppings bar. Habanero sauce and cactus as a protein choice!

    Amazing, amazing Mexican food. My husband and I ordered takeout and were SO impressed with the quick service, food quality, portions, and prices. Everything was great. One of the best restaurants we've ever had- and that is saying a lot because we have tried many. We will be back again soon!

    Chicken enchiladas with rice and beans
    Carlos R.

    Thought we order in due to the rain. We decided to go with El Charro. Grub Hub delivered fast so kudos to you guys for that! Got the enchiladas rojas with rice and beans and a cucumber lemonade. For 11.99 I should got something else that was maybe worth it. They give u two enchiladas that the sauce is a bit salty and yes it's packed with chicken. It actually felt like I was eating chicken tamales rather than enchiladas. Rice was actually okay it wasn't dry nor burned. The beans did taste a bit burned maybe left them in to long. The cucumber lemonade was actually very satisfying and coo. Would I give this place another chance.. not sure?!? I'm in the air with it. I thought it be a little more better or maybe a little more home like to it... a little dissatisfied with it...

    Breakfast burrito

    Came in for a breakfast burrito, and it did not disappoint. The salsa slaps too. The place inside is very cute. I'm definitely coming here again. Hit the spot.

    tacos (al pastor left asada right)
    Mariana S.

    been here a couple times and the tacos are great they have horchata too. i order by phone because I can pickup and I've tried the asada and al pastor i preferred asada. I've also tried their enchiladas pretty good i intend on returning.

    Love this place.
    Raymond M.

    Amazing food very time. Order weekly for my office and everyone is just as obsessed. Thank you to this place. Also they're fast

    Friday Super Fries (w/o free 16oz agua fresca) and Beans and Cheese Burrito
    Sean C.

    Use delivery service for the order of bean and cheese burrito and super fries (Friday special with a 16 oz drink of your choice). All the food arrived okay but was missing horchata. Overall the food and the portion was okay

    A filling meal if a bit on the bland side.

The lush outdoor setting feels like a hidden oasis tucked away in the middle of Hollywood and creates a unique atmosphere that's perfect for a relaxed dinner. The food was excellent across the board. We started with the oysters and ceviche, both of which were incredibly fresh, bright, and full of flavor. The guacamole was delicious and clearly made with high-quality ingredients. The standout dish of the evening, however, was the short rib tacos. Tender, flavorful, and perfectly prepared, they were easily our favorite item of the meal and something we'd order again without hesitation. Our server was fantastic. He was knowledgeable about the menu, offered thoughtful recommendations, and answered every question with confidence. Great service can elevate a meal, and he definitely contributed to an already excellent experience. One thing guests should know is that the scent of sage throughout the restaurant is quite noticeable. It may not be everyone's preference, but we personally enjoyed it and thought it added to the restaurant's unique ambiance and character. Between the beautiful setting, fresh and flavorful food, and attentive service, KATEEN exceeded our expectations. We would gladly return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience in Hollywood.

    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.

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.

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.

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.
