Between the great food, tasty margaritas, and welcoming atmosphere, we always leave happy and in such a good mood. Definitely recommend this spot if you're looking for amazing Mexican food, great culture, and outstanding hospitality! read more

I've tried coming here twice now, about 3-4 months apart, and both times I was told they were already closed at 8 PM. The problem is, their website clearly says they close at 10 PM. I even double-checked before heading over because I was really excited to try this place. I understand that hours can change, but after months, you'd think they would update their website or online listings to reflect the correct closing time. It's frustrating to make the trip and be turned away, especially more than once. At this point, it just feels unreliable, and unfortunately, I won't be coming back. read more

Proceed with caution. Our experience here was extremely disappointing and concerning. The food quality was unacceptable. The potato looked old and had a grayish black appearance when you move the sour cream and the butter away from it, the rice had a foul smell and an even worse taste. The octopus was rubbery and clearly overcooked, and the mojarra was excessively fried to the point of being dry and only lukewarm when served. The only items consumed were the guacamole and our drinks. When we brought these issues to the staff's attention, their response was dismissive and lacked any real concern. We still offered to pay for what we did consume, the guacamole and lemonade, which they accepted without hesitation. Based on this experience, the food did not seem fresh, and it raised serious concerns about quality and food handling. I would strongly advise others to be careful when dining here. read more

Sunday 03.15.2026 12:00sh Went here for Sunday Brunch. We were in the area winging our location to find a place to eat. Found this spot in the corner of Downey and Firestone. Parked in the Back which had plenty of parking. Walked in the restaurant and was greeted and seated. We were seated at a booth on the right side of the restaurant. We noticed the Ambiance had a lot of Pink in the room. From the Dia Dos Los Muertos doll, Mural, Ceilings, and walls. The owner must really like pink. Ordered a Tamarindo Michelada with Negro Modelo, Margarita Flight, Carne Asada Taco, Enchilada, Huevos Ranchero, and Chips with Guacamole. After 10 Minutes, we received our drinks. They were very tasty! Another 10 Minutes goes by and we received our food. The food entrees that were delicious are the Chips Guacamole, Huevos Rancheros, and Enchilada. The Carne Asada Taco, not so much. The Carne Asada was hard, tasted old. I had a feeling they used leftovers from the previous night just by tasting it. Through my experience only. The restroom can use some work. It felt dirty in there. Graffiti on the walls. Mirrors were dirty. The serious thing I noticed in the restroom was there was no soap to clean your hands. This is unacceptable! Big Negative for not providing cleanliness. Overall, I would come back if in the area. Only for Taco Tuesdays, hoping the taco will taste a lot better than what I tasted today. Our waitress's name is Dixi. She is a little rough on the edges. Felt like we were being rushed to order. Other then that, she did a good job. Just the little things that are noticed. I will try again, if I am in the city of Downey. read more

The food is probably good, but the service sucks. They never get the order right, because the music is too loud. It's a restaurant not a night club....bajenle dos rayitas por favor. My girl and I couldn't have conversation without yelling and the waitress couldn't hear wtf I was ordering.... So we walked out. read more

The food was decent and the place is nonchalant, there are tv s on the wall if you want to come here and grab a bucket of beer and watch the game. They have specials while the game is on. I had the hard shirmp tacos which were good they come in 3, so it's plenty. My friend had the seafood molcajete, she said beware of the salsa it comes with, cause it's spicy hot. I must say, that what elevated this experience was our server Dixie, she was awesome and very patient and attentive. It says it closes at 11 pm, but don't try going there at 10. Will definitely come back here!!! read more

Tried this restaurant since in Downey. Saw that they had a $1.49 fish taco deal on Tuesday, so wanted to give it a try. What can I say about this experience? Hmmmmi don't know if I would go back.!? First off, walking in this place, I was not greeted and didn't know if a host led you to table or you find your own. Secondly, this restaurant was not that clean. Had them to wipe the menus because it was sticky. Thirdly, omg, don't get me started on the fish tacos....they were not good. Fish, had that thawed from frozen taste and not crispy at all. The cabbages was shredded so crazy big, I think they do that to fill up the taco. Another thing, they mix the pico with the cabbage. Other restaurants keep the separately. And the worst thing about the taco is the ranch they throw on it to pretend it's crema or sour cream. It just left a bad after taste in my mouth. Like I need a chaser for that meal. Crossing fingers I won't get sick tonight. read more

Diamaris was absolutely AMAZING. From the moment we walked in, she made us feel welcomed and taken care of. Her energy was warm, professional, and genuinely attentive. She anticipated everything we needed before we even had to ask. She checked in at the perfect times, made sure our drinks stayed full, and handled everything with such grace and efficiency. It honestly elevated the entire dining experience. You can tell she takes pride in what she does -- and it shows. If you're lucky enough to have Diamaris as your server, you're in great hands. She gave us everything we needed and more. Excellent service from start to finish. We'll definitely be back! read more

Food portions are huge and good. Michi are fire and everything came out so fast! 10/10 service from Abigail.

The food was amazing I want to come back for their breakfast options. I had the shrimp tacos and the potato with carne asada. Some of the family members had the molcajates, shrimp with fries, and carne asada plate. The service was amazing the waiters were attentive of the huge family and their wants and needs. Not just with my family but with other families who needed services too. No one was ignored or rushed to order items. The ambiance is okay it may need more color or some pizazz or maybe more authentic items that represent Mexico. Overall great place to celebrate a birthday! Will totally come back again! read more

Stopped by La Chula Mariscos and tried the mango tostada--definitely a solid choice! The flavors were fresh, and the sweet mango paired really well with the seafood. The presentation was nice too. The vibe was casual and welcoming, perfect for a quick bite or hanging out with friends. Keep in mind that the hours posted are wrong. They close at 9pm on Saturday nights. Would come back to try more from the menu! read more
