This beloved neighborhood bar is back! Serving its classic margarita by the pitcher and comforting Tex-Mex favorites. For a lot of folks, this place holds lots of memories so many are glad that it’s back! The space is small and they don’t take reservations so you will most likely have to wait a bit. Since it’s newly reopened, we got there around 5:45 and didn’t get seated until about 7 for a party of 5. All was good because we were at the bar drinking margaritas in the meantime. I got the Steak Fajitas and they came out on a sizzling hot plate. Also recommend getting the Apple Pie with Vanilla Ice Cream dessert! It also comes out sizzling with delicious caramel all around!!

Don't go here if you know what good Tex Mex is. As someone from Texas, this food was not good. We got queso (BAD) and guac (good enough), fajitas that were dry and flavorless and short rib tacos that were subpar. Prices were great for LA but l'd rather pay a bit more for better food. The house margs weren't the worst but do NOT get a frozen strawberry marg unless you like slightly flavored half melted slushies. Atmosphere is awesome just not enough room for all the tables and people in there. Wish I had better things to say, I really wanted to love this place!

Update 10/11 with response to owner: Hey I’m glad to hear all that! And I do hope you guys continue to serve for another 41 years. I can always Appreciate great service and great business ownership. Just had to do my duty as a patron who had an opinion! That’s what the review system is for after all. It’s all love and I wish you guys many many years to come!

An amazing atmosphere, providing a nostalgic feel along with delicious contemporary TexMex cuisine. And do not miss the sizzling apple pie dessert. I’ve had dreams about it. It’s so good.

Went recently visited to try the reopened version. Same look. Food was fair. Margaritas were good. Nice servers but was served the wrong dish initially. The wait time for food was very long (over 25 minutes). The reason for the 2 star review and not 3 stars was the poor attitude of the manager on duty and his disrespect. We waited for a table of 4 and there were 3 of us while we waited for our friend to arrive. One in our party knew the manager but that did not seem to affect his behavior. The manager said to us that it is a policy that he could not sit 3 people at a 4 top, so he squeezed us into a corner table that fit 3 while we waited for our friend to arrive (which when he did, he was squeezed into the table.) OK fine…that's the "policy". We can respect that. However, the guests in front of us were 3 people, and we saw that they were sat at a 4 top. Then, we noticed the guests in line behind us were 3 people and they were sat at another 4 top! At that point, we wondered what was going on. The person in our party who knew the manager politely asked whether we could sit at a 4 top. The manager restated the policy and when he was told that he just sat 2 tables of 3 at two 4 tops, he just smiled with no response. It appeared that the manager's disrespect was intentional. If you are not going to abide by the policy and not treat all guests fairly, then eliminate the policy for all guests. At least show some respect for the guest by acknowledging him, and better yet try to rectify the situation. I have worked in restaurants and understand the importance of respecting guests. Apparently, this manager has much to learn about guest service and respect.

Thank goodness for open air seating and delicious food that really has gotten better than before it closed 😋 Seems like it's much healthier and less greasy than I remember! One thing, I assumed everyone in the waiters world would know what "going Dutch" means. But they don't, so much for assuming. It was a learning experience that I was so grateful to be the instructor! Loll GREAT TIME and nice people, with accurate and fast service!
