    Small setting, but cozy. Nice people, attentive. Food is very well presented, well worth the wait.

    I recommend people not to go to this restaurant the price is not worth eating there and the food wasn't really good it was like whatever

    Carne asada!!!!

    #898 Review 8 - 2018 Yes, it's a hole in the wall.... Ordered the steak. It tasted home made. No frills, but you can't really go wrong either. The portions are pretty huge. Service is great and if you're lucky there might be a musician around playing Mexican tunes. What can I do without at Tila's? It's not bad at all.... What stands out at Tila's? Home made flavor! Value! 4 stars!!!! Tila's is really ridiculously good!!!!

    Omg best Mexican food in East Los Angeles, this will be my new favorite place to eat. All of the food has authentic great flavor. Oh and don't want to forget handmade tortillas.

    8 pieces of shrimp for $25

    I been coming here for years but this time I ask for extra shrimp and get little 8 pieces.. probably not going to but again. 8 pieces of shrimp for $25

    Best menudo I've had in a while. Hand made tortillas and the asada tacos are awesome.

    Cafe de olla

    I remember coming here when I was 9 years old with my mother and to this day it remains my favorite Mexican breakfast spot of all time. Maybe is nostalgia or maybe us all the love that they put in their made from scratch food. When we eat there we feel like I just walked into a family member's home. I hope to bring my kids here someday & that they love it as much as I do. Everything I've tried here is good but my favorite dish remains the chilaquiles & their cafe de olla.

We kicked things off with the queso fundido, and wow, it was absolutely delicious! Rich, melty, and packed with flavor, it was the perfect way to start the evening. For my entrée, I ordered the cochinita pibil, which was incredibly tender and saucy in the best way. My husband ordered the short rib, and it was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. On the side, we shared the papas bravas and esquite, both of which complemented our dishes perfectly. The drinks truly elevated the night. My husband and I both love mezcal, and Kateen delivered. I ordered the Valentine's Day "Zona Romántica," which featured mezcal and wine almost like a sangria, but completely unique and beautifully balanced. My husband had the "Gypsy Fever," also mezcal-based, and it was smoky, smooth, and refreshing. Between the food, cocktails, and ambiance, it made for such a romantic and memorable evening. We'll absolutely be back!!

This time, we decided to give it another shot since it has so many good reviews, and I'm glad we did. The ambiance was much better, with nice Tulum-style vibes and music that really set the mood. From the moment we walked in, service was great. We were greeted and seated right away thanks to our reservation. Our waitress, Brenda, was friendly, attentive, and super helpful in explaining the menu and recommending drinks. She checked in often and made sure everything came out quickly. The food was good overall, though the menu is a bit limited if you don't eat meat or seafood. I was especially looking forward to the fish tacos, but it seems like they've been removed from the menu. One thing I really appreciated was the mocktail options. Perfect if you're not drinking but still want something fun. The Wes Colada is a great pick if you like piña colada type drinks, though it is on the sweeter side. The michelada was also really well done, with a nice balance of savory and sour. Overall, I'd definitely recommend this spot for a date night or a girls' night out.

Now when you pull up originally you might think, "am I in the right place" but once you park and get into the courtyard, it is LOVELY! Amazing ambience! There is a bocce set up, string lights. 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. Unfortunately my friends had gone to Funke the night before so they were comparing the squash blossoms and Funke won out, but they still liked Dama's! Small plates were enough for the 3 of us. The service was quick and attentive. Parking was easy for us. I will definitely be back!

Sadly, this experience soured my impression enough that I don't see myself returning.

The building is an original piece of the City's history, boasting a menu that features their famous burritos that vary in size from a regular to a huge party size beast that can feed several. I tried the Hollenbeck and the Okie burritos on two separate occasions via pick up, as aforementioned, the service was quick, convenient and the pick up window is seamless, parking is located next to the structure and I haven't had problems getting there. Hollenbeck was good but I definitely enjoyed the Okie burrito more, I ordered the "original" size once and didn't seem to learn my lesson the second time, these burritos can feed two in Original size. 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.
