After all of the hype surrounding this place following Jonathan Gold's review in the LA Weekly, I decided to give it a try. Hidden on the first floor of an old Hollywood apartment complex in Mc Arthur Park, Chichen Itza is a fun find if your in the area. The quality of the food is good--but not worth a drive to the East side if you aren't already in the area. We ordered the Sole with jicama salad and the chile reyeno stuffed with albacore. The sole was well cooked and pretty delicious, but not worth the hefty $15 price. I wouldn't order the chile reyeno again--the tuna didn't taste entirely fresh and its accompanying sauce settled badly.
