Every time we go to a show, since wicked (saw it 3 times), my friend and i have to go to Beso.
The bartenders remembered us the first time we ever returned which is impressive in itself, since this is a busy are and the theatre crowd must be coming through here every day. It seems like every time we arrive, there are droves of other people waiting to be seated which more than likely are coming here for dinner and then off to the show afterwards.
Our experiences here have all been wonderful. We talked to one of the servers, even though we sat at the bar, who had a lot of funny things to talk about after explaining one of the new items on the menu that she had delivered to us. We always order the blackberry collins and the tequila spa. There are other things on the menu, but those seem to suit our tastes perfectly.
Hollywood and Los Angeles in general need more place like this one. It feels like home for many reasons besides just nice people and good service. We will continue our tradition of dinner at Beso before every show because every time we come in they treat us like we're really important to them.
Thank You Guys,
Penny
Pros: Food, Drinks, Bartenders, Servers

Gardens of Taxco is a great meal at a great price. There is no menu, so it's as easy as it can get. First you get vegetables and chips (of course), followed by a small quesadilla, then an enchilada, then your main course with rice beans and tortillas, and at the end with a dessert and a glass of sherry. By the way we got a pitcher of a great margharitta as well. Our bill came to $66. Go and enjoy!
Pros: Fun, Unique, Price
Cons: Cheesy

I read a few of the reviews on CitySearch before taking my girlfriend and some friends here. This place has such a great vibe. I was greeted by everyone with a smile and our waitress was so adorable. We were there during their happy hour and got major deals on our margs and beers. We started off with the free chips and salsa. And the tacos were good. My girlfriend ordered the Caesar salad and it was tasty and fresh. Some of the reviews on here are so awful. It really didnt help at all. So hopefully my review will help.
Pros: good food, beautiful staff
Cons: not a family venue

I've been coming to el compadre for 4 years,
the salsa and food was very delicious 4 years ago. Then they started going downhill, salsa started to taste worse and worse, food was not tasting as good ect. some days the salsa was disgusting. so I stopped going their entirely.
A year later I come with my girlfriend because nothing else was open that late.... OMG... the salsa was SPOT ON! it was so freakin good I was shocked! I heard they got "new people". anyways, they restored me back to "regular status". amazing what new management can do.
Cons: inconsistancy with the salsa

Jarritosbreath obviously busses tables for the place on Sunset...his ex-girlfriend likes to take her dates to Don Antonio's - and why wouldn't she??? THis place is FANTASTIC! Ambiance is GREAT, food is fast and tasty, you can't go wrong. I have NEVER had a bad experience in the past 12 years of going on a semi-regular basis. The salsa and guacamole is second to none.
Pros: everything
Cons: parking

It's been years since I have been there but have not forgot those incredible homemade tortilla's and marinated carrots! I had forgotten the name since I haven't been there in about 10 years. I tried finding it today since my hubby and I were in the area, we ended up at another restaurant that was good but not what I was hoping for. If the owner considers more locations I recommend Palmdale! A great area for new restaurants and lots of people. We need a Paco's Taco's out here. Pleeaase!
Pros: homemade tortilla's, marinated carrots, atmosphere
Cons: parking

I make it a point to eat here every time I'm in L.A. - and don't let the discovery that this unassuming little place is in a strip mall - this food is wonderful. If there's a wait - it's worth it. NOTE: A reviewer in February mistook this place for some place called Antonio and put her bad experience under Alegria's on Sunset's reveiw.
Pros: The food!
Cons: It's not a "romantic" wine and dine place.
