The Service is Impeccable! Staff is very attentive! The Food is Delicious! The white chocolate Bread pudding is luscious :-) We always have an enjoyable meal.
Food is always amazing. Dont miss spicy cocktails and the staff are welcoming and great. Never ever had to wait to be seated so must have chosen good times to go. Can't recommend highly enough
High end Mexican food with great flavour and great ingredients. Get there on happy hour for deals on cocktails .
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!
Rick Bayless is a master of Mexican food . You'll love everything here. I highly recommend the short rib sopes .
Nice mexican food with style. Like the decor. Scallops with mash potatoes are amazing
Go for their happy hour for the food! Between 5-7, great prices for expetional food.
Upscale Mexican; Amazing atmosphere/vibe (probably the most beautiful restaurant in LA); food is very good, but not amazing.
I can be pretty critical of restaurants but EVERYTHING we had was incredible! The corn chowder w/ crab is a must, as are the chicken enchiladas and the bunelos.
Love the staff here. Spicy Marg is the way to go. And the simple chicken enchiladas suizas are more than simply delicious!
When they first opened they were very arrogant and offensive as they were HOT. Now longer hot! Now can walk in any day anytime almost without reservations .
Awesome tequila selection . Drinks could be a little stiffer. Getting seated can take some time, even with reservations . Food across the board was very good.
If you sit in the lounge don't wear skinny jeans...it's like sitting at a pre school class table.....You are basically on the floor!But it's a fun scene and the food rocks!
Get a Seafood tower and Queso Fundido , the best of both worlds!
Taylor the bartender is amazing! Happy hour is fab! Food was yummy!!!
Really fancy and high end Mexican cuisine . Highly recommended
Order the tinga poblana , a duo of pork shoulder and belly with house-made chorizo and chipotle chiles: Read more
Cocktails - The Alacran is the best spicy . Margarita I have had ever! Food- the halibut ceviche is great and the pescado dish is amazing!
The market margarita and side of kale are perfect additions to any meal!
Pomegranate margarita . Lamb mole . Staff .
Amazing shrimp dish ....
Try the tinga poblana , a tender duo of pork shoulder and belly with homemade chorizo and smoky chipotle sauce .
The Casa Blanca margarita is wonderful . The clarified lime juice is terrific.
One of my favorite happy hours in West Hollywood
Triple ceviche amazing with avocado and jicama!
awesome margaritas and appetizers but if you have the appetite, order the pork !
I love Rick Bayless, but this place blows. The cocktails and atmosohere are nice, but the food is mediocre. I actually prefer the food at Frontera Fresco , his quick service restaurant , over this.
Fans of Rick Bayless will enjoy his name, in big letters, on the sign out front. That was about all I enjoyed, unfortunately.
Usually I get annoyed because this place is crazily overpriced. However, they have a Sunday happy hour from 5-7 that is an epic way to greet the evening.
This place does not disappoint! I recommend the beef short ribs sopes , tortilla soup , duck taquitos and chicken enchiladas .
The lamb in mole sauce was delicious.
Everything!
Obsessed with huevos mexicanas con shrimp !
An old favorite, stunning decor
Great ambiance. Great menu. Expensive but not out of control. Suggest pork sopas and colorado lamb . Coordination between wait staff and servers is sloppy. Poorly lit restroom with single sink and stal
The sweet corn and goat cheese tamales
Beautiful restaurant with a lively atmosphere . Recommend the short rib sopes !
The guacamole is amazing!
Highly recommend!!! Get the goat cheese cheesecake !
Say hi to my friend the Executive Chef Michael Brown! He's an awesome and talented Chef !
Great Dine LA Menu!
A must stop
The plaintain sopes & alacran margarita are vital. Service is top notch contrary to Yelp reviews!
The White Sangria is amazing!
Great place for Valentines dinner !
hit the bar for specialty margaritas and the low-lit, dramatic decor
A mixture of very good and boring. The drink inovative while the entrees are blandish.
Sipping Tequila is plentiful +1 Crab and shrimp enchilada is to die for +1 Lounge +1
Flan and blueberries with espresso
Machaca quesadilla and chocolate churro dessert are must haves here! - Lola Autaubo
They have the most amazing staff here! Everyone is so friendly here. The bar is a great place to hangout even if you are not seeing a show. - Andrew Byrne
Get the Hummus! I also LOVE LOVE LOVE the wedge salad. - Maria Luisa Figueroa
Awesome vibe here. Great burgers up front at 25° and excellent drinks all over. - Zachary Pennington
