    The best cheap Mexican sit-down in Venice. Carnitas are wonderful. Service can be very slow (we've often only received chips and salsa after our food). But hard to beat the prices and the BYOB.

    Full on tradish with soft corn tortillas, cilantro, & salsa fresca. If you want the real thing, fast and shockingly cheap, hit up La Fiesta Brava. One of Venice's best secrets. For now. ~ToddM1976 Read more

    Went through 2 salsa bowls, 2 beers, and 1 chip basket by myself even before my order came out. Carne Asada burrito was delicious. BYOB (liquor store right next door). It's a win/win.

    Don't get suckered into buying bottled water...they have the best tap water in the country.

    Tacos are always delicious. Tostada is a taco salad. Salsa is spicy. You will finish the entire basket of chips.

    Bomb food. Asada is pretty legit. Walked a mile for it, totally worth it.

    Try the fish tacos, but don't overorder. They're really big. Also, grab beer next door and bring it over - they don't mind. BYOB!

    Salsa really had a nice kick. They sell mexican coca-colas. Try the carnitas plate.
