Lobster taco, margaritas, chips with guacamole are excellent!
Great ambience and great food. Ordered chips and guacamole (great guac), a cheese quesadilla (very cheesy and delicious), short rib tacos (a la carte) and grilled fish tacos (a la carte) for two.
Definitely get the guac and chips. Aside from the great guac, it’s served with a house made smokey salsa that’s delicious.
Awesome spot. Amazing service. Get the guac
Serving classic and contemporary Mexican food. With over 60 premium Tequilas and mescal's. Be sure to order the Guacamole with fresh chips as a starter.
Not the widest selection of vegetarian options, but they label them on the menu which is really nice. The guac is fantastic. The chili relleno is not bad either.
The El Cholo family recipe dates back to 1923, and the traditional guacamole benefits from years of experience. Try it! - CBS LA Read more.
The guacamole is awesome. Tortilla soup is flavorful and now we are going to try the green chile - corn - cheese tamales that the restaurant is known for - okay first bite delicious
The guac is on point.
Guacamole greens salad. Cilantro lime vinaigrette.
The guacamole greens salad is great if you are not creating your own custom bowl!
Guacamole green salad is awesome if you are not creating your own!
Delicious chicken taquitos.. get a side of guacamole for $3!
Love the tomato-less guac
The guac. The end.
Order two small guacamoles instead of one large. Basically the same amount for a few dollars cheaper.
Definitely one of the most authentic Mexican Food places on the west side. The setting is great and the food is even better. I recommend the Chicken Chipotle, margaritas & the breakfast!! ❤️
Make sure to ask for the house spicy salsa with your chips, fantastic!
Kale Guacamole and Lasagna are great
Welcome to SAMO- where food is mediocre and prices elevated. Food is ok here. The kale guac is good. Can't really mess up pizza. Just don't fall for the spaghetti squash- definitely not worth it.
Spectacular, love the grass fed burger, animal style!
Guacamole is very good and service is great, waiters are always very nice
Jalapeno Margarita is excellent with some lime squeezed in.
Unbelievable find in near the pier! Shrimp Tacos are the best!
Spicy guacamole is da bomb!! Worth the $5!!
This one of the best farmers markets. They have meat, seafood, fruits, nuts, vegetables including some Asian vegetables. They also have nice plants. Some vendors take cards.
Wednesdays - I get all my fresh produce here - you get to speak with all the farmers & vendors to keep up to date with what's fresh & the best quality and their recommendations. -Alex Reznik, Top Chef
My family decided to have dinner with this restaurant. The ambiance was great, and the service staff was too friendly and attentive. All in all, we have a great day spending with your restaurant!
Try the Barrio Taco Chef’s recommendation. It’s so good! Also the prickly pear margarita!
Great healthy Mexican bowls
Get the dip duo, it's the best guac in town. Theres always a long wait and they only seat you if everyone is present - so don't bring a lagger or youll be waiting forever!
veggie burger is made fresh & to die for!
The shrimp Louise salad so delicious and the cheese burger amazing !!
Spaghetti and Meatballs were jsut average considering the price -- guacamole was surprisingly good
Order an Ivy Gimlet and enjoy their awesome patio seating that looks out to the ocean and the Santa Monica ferris wheel. -Jessica F.
Really bad service comparing to the one in robertson.
Classic American Diner! Great atmosphere
There's something satisfying about diving into a plate of sausage and biscuits - surely an entire day's worth of calories judging by the sheer number of biscuits alone - first thing in the morning. Read more.
Study the menu carefully; there is a huuuuuge difference in what your bill will be if u order combo dishes vs a la carte. Old, classic diner. Stay away on weekend brunch = lines of hungover yuppies.
Great selection of chic boho tops and dresses. -Akiko Cook, Launch My Line
