The sweet corn and goat cheese tamales
Rick Bayless's LA outpost delivers stunning contemporary Mexican in a high-ceilinged setting. Try one of the superb ceviches with a pour of CD!
Beautiful restaurant with a lively atmosphere. Recommend the short rib sopes!
Green corn tamale is delish!
Their tamales taste like desert tamales. The masa is too sweet.
Combo plates! And always a green corn tamale. Waitresses are so sweet. Pretty good service for a busy Friday!
The Sweet Corn Tamales Cakes are to die for! It was a very filling appetizer, and split between three people was perfect- we absolutely devoured them.
Ultimate red velvet cake cheesecake is bomb.com! So are the southwestern eggrolls and so is the bistro shrimp pasta!
VANILLA BEAN CHEESECAKE IS MY FAVORITE
Ceviche toastaditas here are delicious! Meaty and crunchy with a good blance of spice and acidity.
Even if you don’t like flan, Mercado’s version is a must. The staff calls it “the best flan in the universe.”
Start with the Spicy Cucumber Margarita. This is, hands down, the best Margarita I've ever had.
Babyback rib pork taco is a must order. Also the branzino is delish. Very accomodating to make the slaw w/o onions so you know its fresh! Jamon & queso also good but salty. Skip the tamale.
Chicken tamale was alright..but the star of my life is the Pork and Green Chile stew. So flavorful and just hits the authentic spot
Excelent service! Good food. Try the swrimp burrito with guacamole. Butternut squash soup and the mandarin Charritos soda.
BYOB and cash only at this obscure gourmet taco stand... Guac and salsa is simply the best there is!
The branzino is soooo good! Chips and guac, corn on a cob and the lobster taco🍴😋
BYOB and cash only but totally worth it.
Everything. Tamale Sunday's are where it's at.
Beef and Chicken Olvera Street Taquitos are Meaty & Crispy and the tomatillo/avocado sauce is delicious! Fresh Salsa and light crisp tortilla chips. Friendly Fast service.
Surprisingly good vegetarian friendly bean and cheese burrito! The refried black beans thick and fatty, globs of mechanically shredded cheese and a chewy tortilla.
ry the carnitas with nopales (a rare find in L.A.!) and the popular hard shell potato and cheese, one of several vegetarian options. Be sure to check the taco of the month as well! Read more.

My new official watering hole. These tacos are the best in MM. Better food better drinks better service. Shrimp cocktail is amazing!
Great place! Loved their margaritas and their hongo (mushroom) with manchego cheese taco.
the cilantro Ginger margarita is good stuff!
Tequila bar! Great cucumber margarita! Read more.

My go-to spot for antique house goods (look for trays, mirrors, and vases), vintage clothes, and costume jewelry. Bring cash, comfortable shoes, and don't forget to bargain!
CA (Shop) This flea market is held every Sunday from 9a-5p in the parking lot of the Fairfax High School - go early to find the best treasures. You won't leave empty handed.
A cool mix of vintage clothing, artworks and covetable home goods.
Excellent coffee and superb bakery. Scones, tarts, cakes, done right.

Amy's babka and Aunt Nancy's four shot Shakearoo with local honey are the perfect pair... but it's hard to go wrong with anything here. Goo luck getting out with a well stocked to-go bag.
One of the best places in LA to catch the hottest comedians!
go on a wednesday. best comedians in LA usually drop in unannounced
For 35+ years this legendary spot has introduced some of the greatest comedians of all time including Eddie Murphy, Ellen DeGeneres, Adam Sandler & Dave Chappelle. Jay Leno helped paint the ceiling.
One word: FreerangeLA. They also have a great bread vendor with delicious sourdough bread. I just can't remember the name.
Apologies in advance for the lack of description, but ... Find the hummus lady and get the "Kitchen Sink" hummus if spice & garlic are your thing. DELICIOUS!
The empanada booth and the breakfast burrito booth are NOT to be missed

Marcus is not the friendliest employee. Tried to ask a question about the cooking class and was told to leave......
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
