The food is delicious and authentic. The food is fresh, well presented. They're reliable, responsive, and great to work with for office events. Omar and team are dedicated and I always enjoy the food. read more

I'm beyond devastated that this place closed. I ate here multiple times a week and used to walk by twice a day. Now every time I pass it, my heart hurts a little and I honestly avoid walking that route. The neighborhood genuinely feels sadder without them here. My son's favorite food was the fish tacos, and this place became part of our routine and memories in such a special way. Really hoping whatever opens next honors the space and the community. read more

The customer service team was fantastic. The pink interior and hidden gems were absolutely beautiful. However, the food quality was very poor. I really, really wanted to love this place. I ordered chicken arepa and pastor sope. It was my first time trying arepas. The presentation and price were great. The arepa exterior shell was very hard. The sope exterior was also hard. Al pastor was very tough and not chewy - and I've always have al pastor. The chef and the team was kind enough to remake my order. They were so sweet to offer me dessert. The dessert was also tough. I'm not sure if they are serving old ingredients passed their expiration date, but I threw up pretty badly. :( They are very lovely people, but I won't be returning. read more

Stopped by on a whim on a holiday afternoon. The staff was very sweet and patient with our questions regarding the menu items. We were intrigued by the service of Mexican and Salvadorian food, and we were pleasantly surprised! The pupusas were delicious and their carne asada breakfast burrito was tasty and filling. The indoor dining space is cozy and a bit tight, but filled with a lot of art! read more

We ordered a fish taco, taco al pastor, and shrimp taco. The fish taco was my favorite, but the burrito was also really good (beans were flavored well, tortilla was yummy and cheesy). Generous servings and reasonable prices. Outdoor patio was cute and relaxing. Next time going to try the burrito al pastor and get a few more fish tacos. Update: went back 2 weeks later, got the burrito al pastor and chicken and beef empanadas. Tasted even better than what we got the first time and service was very friendly. read more

Great food, great service. Very colorful and pleasant to be in. Love that the wall decorations are also available for sale (not everything).

Should update your business hours. We came in a Sunday at 12:00 pm and it was closed. Weird that there were carteles saying their business hours showing Monday to Sunday 8-5:30 pm. read more

La Villa Cafe - CHILAQUILES was excellente - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I love this place. I can't compare it to any restaurants in the neighborhood because they haven't given me the reason to. I love their fish tacos. I can eat them cold and they would still taste good. No lie. I work by them so I'll buy 2 fish tacos for lunch then I'll buy 2 beef empanadas for dinner. They close at 630. I'm thinking of getting a breakfast burrito tomorrow. There are not too many restaurants I would eat at three times a day but yet here we are My favorite spot in Atwater. read more

La Villa Cafe - Yummy Fish Taco - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Made a reservation the night before, had it confirmed. Both on yelp and google said that it was open on sundays. Got there only to go to the grocery store beside it and they told us that it was closed on sundays. How are both the hours on yelp AND Google wrong?! Unbelievable. read more

YES YES YES YES YES YES Sopes are so good, I go here every week. The place is cool and colorful, inexpensive, and so far everything I've ordered has been delicious. read more

The food hits the spot. It's perfect. The salsas are delicious with the chips and meals. Everything tastes fresh and seasoned just right. Then the cafe and its decor has quite some charm with colorful arts and crafts. You feel immersed in a cultural experience. I'm so glad I took a chance and tried the beef milenesa. They definitely know how to make and serve it. I enjoyed it very much. On my next visit, I will try the fish taco. My friend ordered it; and it looked good and worth coming back for. The cookies they sell are so yummy. Once you open the bag, they'll soon be gone! read more

I brought my daughter here with her friends for her birthday. I brought a cake but forgot candles and they put candles spelling out Happy Birthday for me! And even cut the cake for us. And they let us stay past their closing time. The cheese enchiladas were really good too! read more

Well, my search for a good 'ol classic wet burrito is finally over. Being from the inner city of LA, it's hard to come by real Mexican food here in Glendale. Kabobs maybe, but real authentic Mexican, I'd drive to LA for my cravings. All the fixing's, generous portions, and a taste that's hard to find these days, LA Villa Cafe is the spot! It's on the outskirts of downtown Glendale but that's where all the gem spots with authentic cuisine can be found. Carne asada wet burrito? Wooh! So good. Chile verde pork wet burrito? You have no idea what you've been missing! Didn't know pork could taste this good. This is the jam right here! read more

Breakfast was delicious- Salvadorian breakfast with eggs, arepa, curtido and huevos rancheros with chunks of pork. Four stars because the iced coffee was flavored- not good. But the owner was quick to offer to take cost off the bill. Sweet little neighborhood spot. read more

Maybe some of the best fish tacos I've ever had, the vibe in there is impeccable as well. Staff was kind and warm, I'll be back for sure!

My New Go-To Place, and a Cozy and Charming Hole-in-the-Wall. I've visited this place about 5 times and I've had the following: 1) Grilled Fish Fillet Combo - served with two sides. Available sides are Fries, Salad, and the traditional Rice & Refried Beans. I ordered my combo with the traditional pair. 2) Carne Asada Taco Both items above were deliciously seasoned and nicely grilled. I highly recommend them. Service is also quite nice. read more

I absolutely love the food at La Villa Cafe. Everything is delicious, well-made, and the staff is so sweet. I love when they have fresh pupusas being made outside. My favorite items to get are the burritos (especially the pork with green sauce) and any of the tacos and pupusas. The inside is really cute as well, I love all the trinkets for sale - it reminds me of when I visit shops in Cabo or Tulum. Small, covered patio area to eat at too. read more

Food was incredibly average for the wait time. I did like that they made the soup from scratch, but it was not worth the time. The rice was a bit tough, like hard, not soft I'd like to try it again, because ambience is so nice maybe I just need to order something else, but our first try was a little under par. read more

This place advertised open, but arrived and door locked and was closed, asked if they were open and people who worked there ignored ..waited 30 min.. can't recommend cause customers were not serviced.. used to be good when it was Lupitas but not now.. don't take a chance! read more

This place is amazingness! Affordable and great quality food. We were here for a friend's birthday and they made our large party feel so special. They sang and cut the cake for us. Service was great especially with Evelyn! I ordered the fish taco it was fresh, crispy, nicely chopped cabbage, delicious salsa and crema. The veggie sope had a base of delicious beans, sautéed corn and rajas, crema and queso fresco. Mil gracias a Uds. por la comida y tiempo!! read more
