The Cucumber margarita was really strong! It had tajin on the rim and was good. Wifey had a carne asada taco and it was okay. The atmosphere was nice and there were tables at the bar, high chairs and outside. They have TVs everywhere. There is a club downstairs also. Worth investigating further. read more

I thought I would give this place a chance. All I ordered was a burrito after reading what they put inside of it. Very disappointed I got nothing but rice, beans, carrots, and a little bit of Carne Asada. No chipotle sauce, no sour cream no onions and cilantro basically nothing that was described. Just a whack ass burrito. I had to open it up and eat the meat out so it wasn't a complete waste of money. over $17 for this give me a break not gonna last. As for the service it was like 2 o'clock nobody's in there, and it seemed like I was bugging the guy. I can't say anything about the ambience other than it looks pretty cool, but they need to step up their game. read more

I have to change my review due to some very serious problems that occurred to me here. I cannot recommend this place to anyone. New management and bar staff is needed asap. Double check your bills and bar tabs. Fraud and scams. Stay away. Not on the BBB website to file a formal complaint against this business. read more

Looking for a spot for taco Tuesday or just to catch some cool vibes with a date or tour crew...this is the spot. They have plenty of seats inside and outside with beautiful bay windows that let the breeze in with no pest in sight. There was one waitress for the entire spot on this day and time hopefully when it's busier they accommodate her. When the food came out it was hot and pleasantly appealing. The taste buds weren't disappointed and we will definitely come again! read more

I love this place the drinks are great I love the mango margarita is delicious and refreshing. The food is also great I try the mulitas de asada. The restaurant is really nice I love the decoration. We got the best service Sergio was amazing he really knows how to treat his costumers. We had a great time I definitely recommend this place is a lot of bars around that area that can go after you eat there. read more

Made a quick stop in for a few drinks and it was fairly enjoyable. We went on a Friday so by the time 9pm came around, the loud music from the club below was really loud. We had 3 beers each and I was astonished when I saw the price. Definitely felt it was overpriced. Our waitress was fantastic though and so friendly. I'd consider coming back if I was in the area. read more

Luchador Bar +Kitchen - Manager special. coming soon to the menu - Mexican Near Me - Pomona, California

What a great vibe this place was! After an event my husband and I attended, we were looking for something close by. We came across Luchador Bar + Kitchen. What really caught our eye was the sound of music and flashing lights. We went in, were greeted, and sat at the bar. We got down with some delicious drinks and complementary chips & salsa. We ordered the fajita plate which included shrimp, steak and chicken. It was big enough for the two of us to share. The bartender was super nice and attentive. It was a fun night with great food, good vibes and great music. read more

MAKE SURE TO REVIEW YOUR BILL BEFORE YOU PAY. I understand now how this place has been able to stay in business, they scam and rob their customers over the years because the quality of food and service has been absolute TRASH. I don't know where these employees find the audacity to treat their customers like absolute garbage. The women employees acting like total jack asses and the men acting like they needed a few more hugs from their parents as children. And when I say men, I'm referring to the man that's either the owner or manager. So disappointed in way this business has turned out to be. read more

I like the fact that the music playing is what you see on the TV's. Location is fine to get a drink and hang out for a bit. It wasn't very crowded whatsoever in fact more empty than not. I wish the drinks were a little bigger for what you pay and overall the experience was ok. I wouldn't go out of my way to come back here, but it was cool to check out. Bartender gave suggestions nothing over-the-top. I think if you went with a bunch of your friends and got a table, you could have a good time. read more

Highly recommended! Food is delicious, we had a great time. Service was amazing Joanna treated us very well! :)

If you're looking for a spot that hits the perfect trifecta of amazing food, killer drinks, and welcoming service, this is it. Joanna from the second we walked in, made us feel like family. The server was attentive without being overbearing and had great recommendations for the menu. Now, let's talk about the drinks, the margaritas are phenomenal. You can tell they use fresh lime juice rather than a cheap, sugary mix, and the tequila selection is impressive. Pair that with their freshly made salsa and perfectly charred grilled meats, and you have a winner. We will definitely be regular customers here! read more

Let's see came in on Taco Tuesday Cinco De Mayo but unfortunately it's not Taco Tuesday it's Cinco De Mayo so after we ordered tacos and beers got the check which was tripled the prices asked the waiter which argued instead of honoring the advertisement on Instagram but its ok this regular and his friends will take my business elsewhere. Oh yeah the DJ really sucked was so loud the waiter couldn't hear our taco orders and got them wrong but we ate them well all of them except a carnitas one that was all fat. Worst experience there, sucks but oh well. There's other places with better customer service and better food. read more

Came here on a Wednesday night around 5:50 pm, not realizing they had happy hour starting at 6 pm--but that's okay! We walked in and noticed a few small groups at the bar. There was only one staff member handling everything--taking orders, serving drinks, and delivering food and checks. While she was super friendly and patient, it was a bit challenging to get her attention due to all the tasks she had to juggle. Hopefully, they have more staff during busier times! Before we placed our order, the waitress brought us water, chips, and salsa. I have to say, I loved the salsa--it had great flavor and a nice kick! For the main event, we shared the Tro Fajita, which came with shrimp, chicken, and asada. You can choose between corn or flour tortillas, and it came with a side of rice and beans. Everything was cooked perfectly, and the portion size was just right for two people. The flavors were spot on, and we were both really satisfied with the meal. read more

Always enjoy the customer service here. The food is always always absolutely delicious! 10 out of 10! Always liked the vibe and layout. I just can't stand when the dj has their music set. Music is so damn loud you can't even hear the people in your table. One thing is to have music playing, but when the music is so loud; it's unbearable to talk and listen. read more

Absolutely terrible experience at Luchador Bar and Kitchen. Staff tried charging for drinks that had already been paid for, then acted defensive and unprofessional when called out about it. Instead of fixing the mistake like a normal business, they escalated the situation and handled everything horribly. The customer service was disrespectful, disorganized, and honestly felt shady. If you go here, double check your bill because apparently they have no problem trying to charge people twice. read more

Stopped by prior to an event at the Fox Theater for a drink and appetizer. The food was good. We ordered the 3 tacos plate, al pastor, carnitas, short ribs. The hand made tortillas were very good. Flight of margaritas were a big NO for me. They looked tasty and pretty but I could not finish any of them. Unsure if they use tequila or mezcal but they were not good in my opinion. Staff was friendly but if you sit in the outside patio you will feel neglected as we did. read more

I've been here twice recently-- once for dinner and once for the happy hour. I used to go all the time when it was a small place around the corner because I craved the taquitos. Once they moved, the taquitos didn't seem as good but they're baaaack! And on the HH menu. Happy hour is awesome with $5 beer on tap. They have a few Mexican taps, inc Negro Modelo, but I went with a craft Hazy. I got the chicken tinga taquitos which are 3 for $6 during HH and cut in half so easy to share and to scoop into the toppings. I also got the short rib tacos which are shredded and moist, ya gotta try these. I will be back often for this HH 3-6 Wed-Fri and all night for Taco Tuesday. I'm already planning an outing with challenge my uncle who says there's no good taquitos anymore. The bar is good enough but the dining room lacks character, seems unfinished and a bit rough. This is in a cool old building and ceiling are very high. TV all around has early music videos from the 80's once and Spanish lLanguage music videos next time. I had the taco trio and they let you select 3 different fillings if you want. The handmade corn tortillas were so tender. I'm not sure they give those during HH. The rice and thick refried beans had great flavor. They even have a platter of the short rib meat. My friend had chicken enchiladas but the tortillas were weirdly thick. I reheated her leftovers next day and it ate dry--still I finished it. They have some fun sounding Mexican pasta dishes. Overall lots of choices. Service has always been cordial, warm even. It's not really cheap, but not really pricey. You get a lot of food and the flavors are there. Oh, I also tried the Paloma but it was not good. They use soda and I don't think it had any grapefruit juice. But come here for everything else! The food is a notch above. That's why 5 stars despite not being perfect-- I was very happy with the last 2 visits. read more

Felt like a sucker on Mother's Day! Looking for a Mother's Day brunch location and Luchador looks very interesting with promise of Mariachi and a decent looking menu. Parking available and the lot across the street. App available to pay for parking. Signs with QR codes are posted. No attendant. We weren't aware that the AYCE brunch was the only option available on Sunday. Had we known we couldn't choose from the menu, we would have come in another time. They were charging $45 per person, even for my son who ate one plate. I heard that the regular brunch price is $30 or $35. Mariachi were leaving as we arrived, karaoke was coming on obnoxiously loud (not a great family vibe), and the buffet food was sadly cold. The buffet food was ok. I'm sure it would have tasted a lot better had it been warmed. Chilaquiles station was great and made fresh in front of you. Very friendly woman working that station. She was also handling the waffle station which offered fresh fruit toppings. The brunch included bottomless mimosas but we weren't there to drink with the family and only managed to drink one carafe between myself and I. We ran into some friends while we were there. I was sent over a Sandia con Chile cocktail that was pretty tasty. I've heard good and bad things about Luchador. Not sure if I'd return but I really wanted to like it. read more

Are you a fan of cheese? Do you like tacos? If your answer is yes, Luchador Bar+Kitchen is a cozy spot in Pomona worth considering. I've been here manyl times before shows at the Glass House, and I have never been disappointed with the food or the service. FYI, you can choose a different protein for your queso fundido, and it doesn't have to be chorizo. I've never had the cheese only and have had both chorizo and asada on different occasions. The tortillas are home made, and for me, corn will always win over flour tortillas. I love corn. Last time I was here, I was watching the Denver vs Minnesota playoff game for the NBA. I've never been here during Laker or Dodger playoffs, but I imagine it'll be crazy if the Lakers ever make it back, but I'm looking forward to the Dodgers packing this restaurant when the time is right. Staff is really chill and nice. I dig that. They bring refills without asking and will correct any order mishaps (which has only happened once) expeditiously. This place is a Pomona gem I'd say. I've had a lot of different menu items, and every option is a solid bet. As I've mentioned in other reviews, I don't drink alcohol, so I can't review the bar. The food and iced team are awesome though! Enjoy if you come through, and cheers. read more

They are consistently sergg by inf great asking food!! Came here for lunch with a coworker and we both loved it! Lunch specials are $13 and there are a good amount of choices. Their salsa is great too! They don't use chips, they use whole tostado shells they you break apart. They also had drink specials as well for lunch! Got a sangria, which was so refreshing! Service was quick and food came out hot. Overall, loved it! read more

Not sure where to start.. I made reservations for Sunday at 10:30am for brunch. My entire party arrived right on time. Unfortunately, we did have to wait around 30-40 minutes for the buffet to be ready.. we were served mimosas right away, which was nice. Now.. when it came down to the food, one person in my party did find a vey long hair in her chile relllenos. We made it know to our waitress.. which was a sweet person throughout everything!! Then we were told that the chilaquiles and taco station was now open.. so we headed down to it. There was no one to great us at the station. We stood around for around 10 minutes and no one showed up. So at that moment I grabbed a bowel of menudo. Lucky me!! I also grabbed a long hair in my menudo.. my sister in law thought it was a piece of onion but it was not! It was a very long strand of hair. At that point we all tried our best to make the best of it and enjoy the mariachi and mimosas. Then when I returned to the taco/chilaquile station the lady was very rude!! She bluntly asked what we wanted instead of telling us our options.. and I said I'll have 2 chorizo tacos please.. she said where's your plate?? I wasn't aware that I had to give her a plate to serve me. It was an overall horrible experience. Especially because we were literally the only party in the entire place besides the mariachi. The mariachi and our server were the only pleasant people that morning. I will never be returning. read more

The food was authentic, fresh & served warm; the service was phenomenal, & music was great (loved the beat!). I have to say everyone was very kind here. Joanne was my server. She was happy & friendly. I walked in not knowing they were closed. She took my order: my drink & my food (which they had to make the nachos w/chicken). She had no attitude or facial expression of not being wanted because they are close. Actually, the people next to me said the same thing, they did not have an idea they were closed. I would recommend this place and would come here even if I did not understand the menu . Kindness is everyones language! read more

Has a lot of potential! Service was a bit slow, and reservations didn't seem to be prioritized. We went for brunch, and it took almost an hour after our booking time to be seated. The music was way too loud, making it hard to have a conversation while eating. That said, the servers were super friendly and made up for the somewhat sloppy setup. We heard a cook/server was a no-call, no-show, which contributed to the delay, but overall, the staff seemed well-managed. If they can improve their service issues, this could be a really fun option for Latino brunch in the area--a demographic that's currently underserved. I'd return to give it another try. The bottomless mimosas were generous and enjoyable. read more

Are you a fan of Lucha Libre? If you are, look no further! I don't mean there's a wrestling ring in here but it pretty much as everything else and masked warriors all around! The ambiance and vibe here is amazing since there are lucha libres all over walls, ceilings, etc! Our server is so sweet, she always comes with a smile and brought us house chips and salsa. We only got beers here this time - they do serve draft and it's so crisp and refreshing! The only part I didn't like was $10.50 for a beer? It's a little steep if you ask me. This is a place to be if you are a Lucha Libre fan! read more

Mixed bag for this one. First of all I love the decor. I LOVE all the paintings of Luchadors. We were the first customers of the day for an early lunch and right away I noticed all the tables had debris on them. The booths we sat at, the seats needed to be vacuumed. Crumbs all over the place. Service was great though. We got the margarita flight and the cucumber on one was dried out, clearly cut the day prior. But the margaritas themselves were delightful. Husband loved the Mole tots and Asada enchilada. And that enchilada was He would probably have given the place 5/5 But this is my account and I ordered burrito, wet with green sauce. I order green sauce because it's normally pretty mild, this was not mild. It was too spicy for my weak ass. The mole tots, the quesadilla with the chipotle sauce, that was all do-able, but my burrito was spicy enough my husband took pity on me. Also the burrito was 90% chicken, which... I would have loved more beans and rice, like way more, but the chicken was dry and a little bland. I got the feeling they were getting rid of yesterdays chicken. All that said, my husband loved it enough, we will probably be returning. It's def a place meant for the dark of night. read more

I'm not familiar with the area so I used my pal YELP for help. Wanted some good Mexican food so I came here. Only worse than the food was the service. I ordered the carnitas enchiladas with red and green sauce. When it came out it was all green sauce and of course the waiter/bartender was nowhere in site. After one taste of the enchiladas I pretty much gave up and figured I blew it by picking this spot. Food was horrible ... service was 3rd world bad. Sorry ... read more

We went to celebrate my birthday during their brunch hours and we were accommodated by Joanna when we asked if they were still serving brunch. We got the pancakes menudo and the wet burrito. All the food was amazing. The pancakes were delicious without needed any syrup. The menudo had a bomb flavor with a kick of spice. And the asada in the burrito had such an amazing flavor to it. The music was a vibe. When Joanna found out we were celebrating my birthday she had them change the song to in the club by 50cent and brought us some shots. Overall we had an amazing time would definitely visit again. I love breakfast any time of the day and I would definitely go again just for the pancakes. read more

Came here for Happy Hour and were the first people there (it was early). The food was really great - braised rib tacos with homemade tortillas, chicken taquitos and a couple of draft beers. The only criticism would be the service. Our server never came back to ask us if we wanted another beer and we had to call over another employee to order take home food and take care of the bill. There was maybe one other table of people there when we left and our original server basically ignored us. Would definitely come back for the food - maybe the server was having a bad day or just figured a couple of ladies wouldn't be interested in having more than 1 beer? Au contraire! read more

Was excited to try this place before going to a show next door and man what a disappointment. The waitress had too many tables, she was really busy & I saw her trying but it made the experience lackluster. We ordered a round of micheladas, potato taquitos & ceviche flight. The drinks came quickly & they were okay--the taquitos took about a half hour & they were soggy on the bottom--the ceviche never came. When we inquired about the ceviche she made it seem like we forgot to order it. We weren't offered anything for the wait or the mistake. I know mistakes happen, I worked in the industry for many years. Overall disappointing experience. Nice space, but just not the day to go I guess. Wouldn't go back. read more
