Jessica you have really misjudged Ay Caramba, sorry you had a bad experience but I think you should give it another chance the place is great! I've lived in the Arts District for 5 years and this is one of my favorite places. The chef is really creative every time I come in he has a daily special that is phenominal. Also, they make everything to order, the chef will cook up whatever you want, how ever you want. everything at Ay Caramba is fresh and the kitchen is open you can watch them make everything.. they don't have any canned or frozen food and take a look, they don't even have a microwave! your comment about the greasy chips is really funny, they only make chips when someone orders them, so that "grease" is what I cal "strease" steam mixed with grease, which is the result of making fresh chips. anywho..

I work in the area near Ay Caramba, and anyone that does too knows how hard it is to find a good spot to eat. I personally love this little artist's district and was very disappointed when my hopes for a nearby Mexican spot were dashed. The service was weird (when I asked for a bowl of soup, the waiter told me he thought I'd eaten enough), the food was bland, and unfortunately it's one of those places that charges 5 bucks for guacamole that's "freshly made", but sorely disappoints. Who ever is cooking here must have been born without taste buds because everything lacked flavor. Parking near impossible in this neighborhood, and after today's experience I won't be going back. Oh yea, the chips are GREEEEEEASY.
