I was so excited to go here, the food looked so delicious on the reviews. I went on a weekday evening with my friend, it was empty. I was like okay the whole place for us lol. It started to get busy like an hour after we arrived. The place looks very nice, it was very clean. When we got the menu, we were like is this all they have for food. The menu is very very limited. I was pretty disappointed I wanted the flautas and they did not have that. Mind you online menu they have the flautas as an option. I chose the tacos. Which I was disappointed as well since online it says with handmade tortilla, however they were served with regular tortilla. We ended up getting two order of tacos and a basket of fries. The fries are okay, they are not worth $11. Overall, I feel like the menu should be updated. read more

drinks are good, but the food was pretty mid, especially considering the price. the quesadilla was fine. i had higher hopes for the fries, but they didn't have much flavor. on top of that, we were told there is no water on tap and we had to pay for a bottled water :/ probably won't be back here again read more

I ordered an appetizer that was supposed to come with shrimp and cucumber, but I was told they didn't have it available. Later on, I noticed they were making dishes that clearly had shrimp and cucumber in them. It was confusing and a bit frustrating to be told something wasn't available when I could see the same ingredients being used for other orders. Better communication and consistency would have made the experience much better. read more

The homemade tacos were worth a trip and for two dollars each I will be coming back for this Tuesday special. I was saddened the area with pool tables etc. was closed off (maybe due to it being slow?). Anyways, dope place to come grab drinks and try out a meal (or tacos). Delish. 8/10 for food... 4/10 for service. When I asked the food server if she could get me a glass of water, she told me to ask the bartender who took my order so I did & then the bartender told me there's only bottled water available (for sale).. because I brought my own bottle I decided I'll just drink out of my own. Honestly I was just trying to get some ice water to wash down the spicy salsa that came with the tacos...(bomb) and not be drinking out of a bottle when I could be drinking out of a glass read more

The Miche Spot is hands down one of my favorite places to kick back with good food and great drinks! From the start, our waitress Martha was amazing! She was attentive, friendly, and made us feel completely taken care of. We had tacos, tortas, wings, and the Chuper Queso Fundido (a must-try) that had the perfect crunch and spice. And of course...the drinks! The mango michelada was refreshing, the spiked horchata was like dessert with a kick, and the cucumber mint and strawberry margaritas were perfect. Between the welcoming vibe, top-notch service, and food + drinks that always deliver, The Miche Spot is definitely the go-to hangout with family and friends. Can't wait for the next round! read more

This place is relaxed, cool, and my server Itzel is attentive and she helped recommend drinks when I was indecisive. I had the guacamole, it's a good appetizer to have as you're drinking. I really like the lotería decor, the music doesn't miss but there's also a jukebox incase. Another cool addition is that there's a pool table in the back if you like to drink and play pool. I would recommend. CHEERS!! APROVECHO read more

Let me just say there was alot of disappointment. Everything on the menu that I wanted had no meat. Burrito, no meat, nachos no meat and taquitos no meat. Where is the damn meat? Then you cant make any modifications to anything They had a 3 taco lunch special which I thought was great but only for lunch. So I was there and they only would sell you 2 tacos and that would have just pissed me off cuz I needed at least 3. All of this frustrated me so I had a few drinks and kept it moving. The drinks were ok, nothing to rave about. I went down the street to get something to eat, they had meat on everything and I had a choice in what I wanted. read more

I think I'm in LOVE, but I could just be full of tacos and margaritas. Initial Impression: This place is very low-key from the outside. But this is CLEARLY a party on the inside. I want to come here on a Friday/Saturday and get some Latin Vibes. The staff is extremely kind and has great energy (shout out to Stephanie). Service: We were greeted immediately upon arrival, which I love. It was pretty quiet for a sunny Tuesday afternoon, honestly there should be far more people in there for a $2 Taco Tuesday! We were able to seat immediately and the place was spotless. I only had about an hour for lunch and we were able to get in and out within that time. I had the Baja-style fish tacos and my God yes. I need an entire basket of those. I could eat them regularly. Perfectly battered and crispy, the sauce was tasty and the salsas made it pop. I also want to drown myself in the Mango Margaritas with the Chamoy rim. Overall: I'm already plotting my next excursion to La Chuperia. Perfect lunch break! Excellent service, great music, and delicious food. La Chuperia hit all the boxes and I'm hoping to be back very soon! read more

My wife has been here a couple times. Usually the service is amazing. But today was terrible. We went here after the LAFC game which they won so it's pretty busy but they are used to being that busy so this is nothing new. We waited 20 minutes in line to order drinks and then the bartender said we couldn't order food because the kitchen was slam and she told us to go away back in line which is longer so 20 to 30 minutes longer just to order food and then wait another hour probably for the food to come out. So we just got our beer and then went somewhere else to spend our money. read more

This spot is actually super cute. They have an antique car at the front with skeletons as drivers which is different than most places. Food was alright. The beef was definitely better than the chicken, chicken reminds me a bit of pollo loco chicken. Prices were a bit higher than usual for tacos, but the drinks were actually pretty good here. The micheladas were really flavorful and reasonably priced. (Thursdays they have a michelada special $7.50 I think) service was excellent no complain, the server constantly kept checking in on us even when the restaurant started to get busy. read more

We started off with four drinks because why not and they were all strong and flavorful. We tried the agua de piña margarita , Cucumber margarita, piña colada and Jamaica Margarita. Chips and salsa was a plus it came with red and green salsa; you can tell that it's homemade. Don't pass up on the Milanesa beef torta-mouthwatering! Very chill spot to come to great music no bright lights in your face, and the best part is that they have the Loteria art blown up on the walls! read more

Wish this was for a better experience. Came here by recommendation, Sunday evening. After security checked us; we were told to stand outside the entrance door for a server to greet and seat my partner and I. Waited 10min, not once were we greeted. No one looked over and said welcome, not a give a minute we're short staffed or busy. (Side note, they weren't busy. With 3 tables in view open for seating) After the wait; server was great. Welcoming, walked us to our table, and explained how to order. Checked in once after our order was out. I ordered a simple draft beer, Pacifico, no way they can mess up a pour. However; their Bandera Flight; absolutely trash. Cheapest tequila for the shots. It was $16; guess I expected more of a dulce shot, not crappy tequila. For those that are familiar with this area, this is a Mexican 901 bar. It was truly my fault expecting more. read more

Yesterday at 10 pm, I attempted to take my company for drinks following a team outing. I arrived first with 2 of my employees. Bartender working made us all super uncomfortable. He was very rude even your security had his eyebrows raised and shrugged. Dude was having a hard time changing out the receipt paper while we were waiting to check out. Came up to us crumpled the remaining paper in his hands in our face and said we'll need to wait longer while he changes it out. He could have just changed it instead of crumbling it in front of us like a psycho. I asked to close out my tab, there's other great bars in the area to which he couldn't recall the card name despite only being in the bar for 10 or less minutes. He asked for the name, I provided my business name (I manage 2 businesses and both teams came out for the outing). I mistakenly gave my other business name to which his response was " OH SO YOU DONT HAVE A LAST NAME". I was still so weirded out about his whole demeanor and really just wanted to leave. He made it so difficult. The card was not my last name, it was my second business. He then retorted with why I said my last name and like bro you repeatedly ( 3 times) asked if I didn't have a last name. ALL WHILE CONTINUOUSLY CUTTING ME OFF. Luckily AND unfortunately only 4 of us had arrived so I quickly diverted the other 15 of us to Normandie Bar ( DEFINITELY RECOMMEND) Karaoke looked set up but he said it's a slow Monday why would they bother. It's always the chopped guys making people feel uncomfortable. I've attempted to connect with Laura on LinkedIn as if I had an employee as such being the face of my business, I'd want to know ASAP. Funniest part of the night is when he said he was beverage director of 5 years and he created all the drinks we enjoyed ( PBR, Modelo, & Vodka Cranberry) what a guy! He then threatened to visit our company. I say threatened as in no way shape or form were any of us comfortable with him knowing where we worked and he 10000% knew it and used it. Very disappointed

When I arrived, there were only about 15-20 people ahead of me in line. As the afternoon progressed, the line stretched down the street, yet no staff member came outside to communicate capacity limits, seating availability, or where the line should reasonably end. Even more concerning, patrons were not admitted until after the match had already started. The situation quickly became chaotic. People who had waited for hours were understandably frustrated, and many were openly voicing their concerns. Groups were admitted one at a time, creating further delays. When it was finally my turn to enter, I was informed that all tables had been taken and that only standing room remained. I was allowed to look inside before deciding whether to stay. What I observed was particularly disappointing: many individuals who had not been ahead of me in line were already seated at tables. I have no idea how they got in but I suspect they were allowed in through some other entrance. After waiting more than two hours based on the information provided by the establishment, this felt unfair and misleading. Most disappointing was having invited friends to join me for the match, only to have the experience ruined by what appeared to be poor planning and inadequate crowd management. The demand for a major World Cup match should not have come as a surprise. If the venue anticipated significant attendance, additional seating, staffing, and clear communication should have been put in place. This was one of the most poorly managed event experiences I have encountered. At a minimum, I believe the ownership should publicly acknowledge what occurred and apologize to the many customers who invested hours of their time only to be left without the accommodations they were promised.

I also tasted my other friends' drinks which were also not good. The raspberry beret and the peach paloma were both bitter and not pleasant tasting. For food, the only decent thing was the buldak. It was cheesy and I liked how they infused the corn cheese into it. The chicken was good and juicy. The tteokkbokki was weird. Firstly, they didn't include the parmesan crisps as they mentioned in the menu. Secondly, the sauce was different compared to other tteokkbokki sauces I'm used to. It was dark red in color, soupy, and oily which I did not like. Thirdly, the rice and fish cakes themselves were very unique in shape. The cakes and sausages weren't that bad and the textures were good, but the sauce was just not it. Lastly, the ramen was such a scam. For $15, it was just regular shin ramyeon with some mussels, jalapenos and peppers added. For all the food dishes, the portions were all small relative to the price and were not great for sharing in big groups. The interior was spacious and vibes were decent. The music from the DJ booth was good. The photobooth wasn't working when we visited which was a minus because my friends and I like the photobooths. There's a free and private parking lot next to the pocha which can get filled. Overall, not the greatest experience at this pocha mostly because of the food and drinks and I would probably not visit again.

The music was bumping, the crowd was chilling and the venue was perfect. The drinks were pouring and the bites were fulfilling. Here are the details: SOMEWHERE SPECIAL definitely is a unique venue that is underrated. It has a pool and patio area for those that want to be mermaids. There is an enclosed area for ordering and enjoying ADULT LIBATONS, and a cute bistro setting area with several niches to sit and congregate. The view of the city was nice...maybe not wow ..but the environment created by Holiday Kirk made it worth the 75 miles drive to check out the Sade Tribute event. Drinks: drink options were limited but they had the more popular ones available such as an Ole Fashion, margarita and shots. Anything like Midori or amaretto sours were not available. Drinks were about $15-$25, which is expected in the area we were in. Bites: they offered many appetizers and pub options such as charcuterie boards, sandwiches, fries etc enough to share. Parking: there are several options of parking areas and one right next door for $15. Honestly, I cannot say it enough! Holiday Kirk's interpersonal skills and charisma was the soul of the success of this event. Will definitely attend one of his events again.

Fantastic Food and Excellent Service! I had a delightful dining experience at La Chuperia! From start to finish, everything was top-notch. The moment I stepped in, the ambiance was inviting and pleasant. Our server, Marcos, was outstanding! He provided excellent recommendations, was attentive, and made us feel right at home. Marcos truly went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was memorable. Now, let's talk about the food - simply fantastic! The dishes were bursting with flavor, and each bite was a culinary delight. The menu offered a wide range of options, and I was impressed with the quality of every dish we tried. The environment at La Chuperia was lovely - a perfect blend of a relaxed atmosphere and vibrant energy. It's an excellent spot to enjoy a delicious meal with friends or family. Overall, I highly recommend La Chuperia to anyone looking for an exceptional dining experience. The combination of delicious food, friendly service from Marcos, and a charming atmosphere make it a true gem in town. read more

I recently visited La Chuperia, and had an outstanding experience, all thanks to our waiter, Marcos. From the moment we arrived, Marcos greeted us with a warm smile and ensured we felt welcome. Marcos's knowledge of the menu was impressive; he guided us through their offerings, highlighting popular dishes like the Carne Asada Tacos and the Chuper Nachos. His recommendations were spot-on, and each dish was flavorful and authentic. What truly set Marcos apart was his attentiveness. Despite the bustling atmosphere, he ensured our drinks were never empty and promptly addressed any requests we had. His friendly demeanor and professionalism made our dining experience memorable. La Chuperia is known for its delicious micheladas and vibrant ambiance , but it's team members like Marcos who elevate the experience. I hope management recognizes his hard work and dedication. We'll definitely be returning soon! read more

La Chuperia is hands down the best spot in LA for micheladas! Every single one is packed with flavor, perfectly balanced, and so refreshing. They don't just serve a drink -- they serve an experience. The presentation is always on point, loaded with the right toppings, and you can tell they put real care into every glass. The vibe here is fun, lively, and welcoming. It's the perfect place to chill with friends, watch a game, or just enjoy an amazing michelada that blows every other place out of the water. If you're in LA and love micheladas, this is a must-try. Trust me, once you have one here, you won't want them anywhere else! read more

Boasts an impressive drink menu that we've enjoyed on two visits. The creativity and quality are evident, with tantalizing specials catching our eye. However, it's disappointing that they don't offer gluten-free options, which could easily cater to those with allergies. A few more mainstream choices would also be appreciated. While the menu looks delicious, we've found it challenging to accommodate my partner's allergies. Despite this, the restaurant's inviting menu and nice staff are noteworthy. read more

La Chupería is officially my new go-to spot! From the second we walked in, the vibes were already hitting harder than a cumbia beat at a quinceañera. The service was amazing--our waitress, Itzel, deserves a standing ovation (and probably her own novela spin-off). She kept the drinks coming like she had a sixth sense for empty glasses. read more

A couple of places recommended to me for a late breakfast/ early lunch were closed so I had to improvise. I found El Rincón was in walking distance. I had no problems walking the route, but it's not date worthy for most people. There are the sights of edge places in the city and there are smells. So if you can drive up, that might be best. If you drive up, you come upon a little urban oasis of casual south of the border dining. There's. Sidewalk seating that could be nice - I'm too jaded for the sidewalk here - does that make me a bad person? Inside it's nice and comfortable diner seating. Food is great. Portions were larger than expected. The person at the counter seemed nice enough. I will go again. Why 1 star deduction? It felt like some orders were slid in front of mine putting me under some time pressure for a meeting I needed to get to. Everything else was great. So I will try again.

I was greeted as soon as I got there and the bartenders were overwhelmed but still friendly and helpful. I was so tempted to get a margarita, since theirs are amazing, but decided to keep it dry and just get their vegan nachos. I was able to score a table outside on their lovely patio, which felt secluded enough from the main street. My food was brought out quicker than I thought and I was delighted, as I was famished! The vegan nachos here are fantastic and the happy price is only $10, which is a steal for what you get! They are costed in the most magical concoction of a bean puree, cashew cheese sauce, and guacamole which all have the most creamy, luscious and savory flavors. It's so hearty and well seasoned and not only filling, but you feel great after. Parking is pretty easy, as there are usually ample meters available nearby. I cannot wait to return again soon the next time I'm in Downtown LA! I am hoping to try more of their vegan options and next time I will for sure get a drink to go along with their delicious food!
