    El Soreño burrito

    Came here tonight to enjoy company with some friends and watch the USA vs Turkey match. I had come here once before and I loved the food so much that I happened to remember this place today. Our table got the carne asada guac and the El Costeño burrito and both were phenomenal! The food, when it first came out, looked a bit dainty; we all thought it wouldn't be enough food. After we ate it, however, we were actually quite full, and we are all big eaters. Maria was awesome! She kept checking in on us and was extremely friendly. The bathroom was also nice and clean. Definitely will be back in the future!

    I came here with a friend tonight as she found this place online and thought and thought they did a daily happy hour. When we arrived, we were bummed to learn that only the Santa Monica location has a happy hour. Since we were famished from a hike at Griffith Park, we took a look at their menu to see what they had and figure out if it was worth staying. I didn't see any vegan options on the menu but my friend asked the employee and she said the vegetarian tacos were in fact vegan and dairy-free. She told me I could choose a veggie for it. I asked which one she recommended and she said the potatoes. My friend and I opted to sit outside on their sidewalk seating as the weather was nice and warm. The tables and chairs were pretty comfy. I loved the cute decor they had both inside and outside and it was all such a great vibe. The seating inside actually seemed more plush and comfortable but the AC felt a bit too much for me. The food came out quickly and the staff were great about bringing salsas and waters to our table. I really loved the potatoes taco I got and the potatoes were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside and perfectly spiced and seasoned. The salsas were pretty mild and really enhanced the flavors of the dish. I regret not ordering another taco, as it was very hearty and delicious! Parking was very easy and plentiful on the street.

    Godzilla Quesadilla

    I know I've written about this place before, but since we live close and often crave Mexican food, I gave it a few more chances. At one point, it became a solid weekly spot for me because the food was genuinely good. The service is still a hit or miss. Ordering by phone is still a struggle, hard to get a hold of them and communication is poor.. but in person, the staff are usually very nice. We were regulars, coming almost every week on lazy nights we didn't want to cook. I understand paying extra for sauces and sour cream, but sometimes the portions are laughably tiny. If I'm paying 50 cents, I'd like more than a squirt. Our go-to orders were the nachos, tacos, and the Godzilla carne asada quesadilla. I loved that quesadilla.. it was huge and usually enough for two meals. But the last time I went, it was so thin it felt like I spent $17-$18 on mostly cheese and tortilla with a sprinkle of meat. I can also tell you to look at photos from other yelpers and you can tell the difference from what i was served. That was a clear sign to stop coming. The décor is nice and fun, but honestly, the food and service aren't worth it for us anymore.

    Guacamole and asada

    We were a big group that came here after a Zumba class! The food and service was amazing. It didn't take long after we placed the order to have the food on the table. Teresa was managing the whole time from taking orders to making sure everybody is taken care of and also taking care of the payment. She was very attentive and very caring and patient, Thank you for making a great atmosphere! We had a great time

    Stopped here to grab some lunch. My husband said it was the best nachos he's ever had. Maria was our server, she was so sweet & accommodating. The interior is super cute, with modern Mexican artwork mixed with some classics. We'll be back to try other stuff.

    Beautiful location, very clean. The service is so welcoming. They make you feel like part of the family. The food is served very proportional, smells delicious and tastes really good.

    Nice cantina atmosphere
    Cathy W.

    From the moment you walk in, you're hit with neon lights, exposed brick, bold artwork, and an energy that feels fun. Service was outstanding. Maria and Teresa were warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. They knew the menu well, gave great recommendations, and made us feel like regulars instead of first-time guests. Their timing and friendliness really elevated the whole experience. The food coming out of the kitchen was equally impressive. Chef Edgar clearly knows his craft. Every dish was flavorful, no shortcuts, no gimmicks, just solid execution. You can literally feel the care behind the food. The open-kitchen setup, neon signs like "Real tacos and not chingaderas," make this a place you want to hang out, not rush through. Desvelados is doing it right. I'll definitely be back and I already know who I am bringing with me!!

    Love that they have an outdoor seating so we can bring our dog. Their agua Fresca is delicious! Food takes a little longer to make but they're super fresh and tasty. Servings are pretty big too! It's in a great neighborhood and super close to us, so we come here whenever we're craving restaurant Mexican food.

    The pasta was good, indeed. However I'll say this, as a generality... Pasta is not expensive. The…read moremeat sauce could be a tad more expensive. So, $27 for an entree of Pasta seemed a bit overpriced expensive given the portions that could have been amplified at nearly minimal cost to the restaurant. I get it 'tho, rent is high and also strategically if you have small entrees then appetizers and other items would be purchased to get the average order size and revenue up as a smart business strategy. So the only comment I have is about the constructive criticism of the portions to the price. As it stands, it feels like what they served was about a $12-15 plate at most in "comps" value to what you might see at peer competitors, 'tho this is gourmet quality. If they doubled the portions served for $27, I wager they're profit margins won't get hurt on the cost of goods (food and portions) but I'm betting the customer care and satisfaction scores will bring back loyal customers with frequency. The service was friendly and atmosphere was nice with the outdoor seating. There's a sister restaurant, across the way with indoor dining.

They do have parking behind the building which seems to fill pretty quickly if they're busy, but it's easy to find parking around the neighborhood. I am not usually in the tavern scene so I was surprised that we had to order and pay at the bar, but it wasn't a big issue. My friend and I split the kale caesar salad and the macaroni and cheese. For the table, I ordered the waffle fries after being informed by the kind waitress that that was the better choice over the pretzel (which she also said was amazing). Since the place was filling up for the final, the kitchen was a bit slow, but we barely noticed with how attentive the staff were in getting us drinks and refills. When it came to food, we were pleasantly surprised with this place and is honestly the reason I'm writing this review. The first things we got were the Beef Tallow Waffle Fries, Caesar Salad, and mac and cheese. Obviously the fries were much better, however the salad was also divine but just swimming in dressing. Back to the fries, we all were mindblown with how tavern fries could be this good and had so many flavors. Even the skinny queens in our group kept snacking on them which tells you how good these were. Mac and cheese came and it was standard and creamy but not necessarily something I'd return for. The surprising thing on top of the fries that majority of us loved was the Vegan Tomato Scampi with shrimp. It was fire and had me questioning if it was even Vegan. Would definitely return here if I find my way back to SoCal from the Bay. Great unassuming place with great food and vibes. Their bathroom as well is super clean and nice! Love this place!
