SONORATOWN
Read moreA more Mexican restaurant? Do you misunderstand! In this small shop there is a kitchen in northern Mexico, different from the rest of the country. The tortilla is made from flour (not maize) and is very fine, and there is also a certain resemblance to the French pancakes. The leaders of the Sonora region are also known to cook the country's best asada meat. It can be said that reputation is respected with meat cooked with a delicious wood fire. For a first one we recommend the very tempting Bean & Cheese Burrito. A superb address for a quick lunch in a family atmosphere.
LA PARRILLA
Read moreLa Parrilla has been in existence for 30 years and has had time to perfect his kitchen. We come here for his parrilladas and his brochetas. The pollito in pipián (young chicken seed seed) is also a more in the menu. Happy hours are still very user-friendly; We love the patio where you can enjoy your meal at ease. La Parrilla is also an original address for the weekend brunch.
CAFECITO ORGANICO
Read moreOne of the latest members of the Third Wave Coffee movement in Silver Lake has settled in one of these developing streets, Hoover Street. Here, the coffee is South American, authentic, generous, creamy and perfectly roasted. Sheltered from the sun under a canvas stretched out in the patio, you can relax alone or with friends, away from traffic. Latin and tamale atmosphere (steamed cornbread, stuffed with meat, cheese and vegetables) from Oaxaca for breakfast... a dolce vita toute angeleno.
CIELITO LINDO
Read moreOpened in 1934, this little shack at the end of Olvera Street is famous for its taquitos, fluted tortillas filled with red beans and cheese, all accompanied by the house's signature avocado sauce. A treat! Other alternatives: tamales and burritos. While a few tables and chairs are available for customers on the side, it can also be nice to eat while walking between the stalls on the pedestrianized street. On weekdays, the surrounding workers flock here for lunch, so be sure to allow time to wait.
Monte Alban Restaurant
Read moreCoffee infused with cinnamon: that's the morning aroma of Monte Alban, which seems to come straight from Oaxaca, Mexico. The specialties of this southern Mexican city are prepared with care. Special mention must be made of the mole negro - a sauce made from many ingredients - and the enfrijoladas, a colorful blend of beans, chicken and typical Mexican sauce - available in a choice of black, yellow, green or red. And don't miss the homemade guacamole, ideal for whetting your appetite.
FRIDA MEXICAN CUISINE
Read moreFrida Mexican Cuisine expresses the diversity of Mexican cuisine in an intimate and modern atmosphere. This place welcomes both UCLA students for Happy Hours and a variety of lunch and dinner. The dishes are authentic and rich. Among other things, we come to taste the very famous margaritas or the Frida Platter, the special base of the chef composed of taquitos, crousitllant chicken and guacamole.
BENNY’S TACOS & CHICKEN ROTISSERIE
