I stayed at USC hotel so I decided to give this place a try since I heard about it from YouTube…read more The place is inside a food hall and shares tables with the other restaurants. The line went outside the building, but it moved decently fast. After ordering you get a number and they will deliver the food to your table. I got a variety of their tacos. Each taco had a unique twist to it, and tasted really good. They also had a cool black tortilla which had a nice texture. I especially like the fried fish one as it had a mellow yet delicious flavor. I also got their cheap chips, and that as well worth the price. Definitely give this place a shot. It does match up to the hype.

Food - All the raw seafood was excellent. Really fresh and the fish pairings complemented each…read moreother well with their flavors. The tuna ceviche stood out to me the most and worth trying. The kanpachi tostada was also great, and the uni with scallop was a nice pairing. Fish tacos were good but not as memorable as the raw dishes. Also tried the smoked kanpachi taco but again not outstanding compared to the raw seafood. Their sauces were also good but spicy! The light brown one had a unique flavor to it and was my favorite but also the spiciest so be aware. Price - On the higher end as expected from a Michelin 1 star, but the quality on the raw dishes justifies it. Wouldn't say every dish is worth the price, but most of them were good. Ambience - This is a food hall setup, you order at the counter, get a number, and they'll bring your food to you. Lines can get long, especially since it seems busy most days now. If the wait isn't worth it, there are other solid-looking vendors in the same food hall to check out. Parking - Small paid lot on site, or street parking nearby. It's also next to a DMV in which you can park after 6pm-ish (would double check the signs)

What a surprise! My friend and I visited for restaurant week…read moreand I'd give it a 9/10! The drive there was a bit iffy due to location but surprisingly the street that the restaurant is on was clean and felt pretty safe! I chose to park on the street but I'd advise to valet ($15) for safety purposes. We walked into a concrete built up newish area that had a brewery and another Michelin rated restaurant across the courtyard. The entire area was inviting! The restaurant felt like we took a dinner vacation to Cabo which was recipe for a relaxing evening! We ordered from the restaurant week menu which for us consisted of Ceviche, Guac w/delicious fresh tortilla fresh chips, whipped beans, snapper, bbq chicken, empanadas and basque cheesecake. All were great!.. we just wanted a larger portion of everything! I'd recommend and will definitely go again! I love restaurant week!

Upon arriving at the restaurant block, I was so surprised to see it was in a spooky area. I was literally terrified to leave my car parked on the street. They had valet parking for $15 also. The restaurant itself looked super nice, beautiful interior and a huge bar in the middle. Some tables were in outdoor patio area too. The menu had bunch of small and large plates, alongside lots alcoholic and N/A drinks. I ordered the Strawberry Daiquiri Mocktail that almost tested like a smoothie. The fried calamari, corn, empanadas, short rib tostada and chicken taco, all were good dishes but none of them were mind blowing. Prices were mostly fair. The service was really good. Our server did a wonderful job. All the dishes came out in short intervals. Overall a good location to have relaxing dining experience with friends and family.

Love the vibe of this place. Never heard of this Argentinian spot before…read more First of all- location is on level 8 or 8th floor which is at the Marriot Moxy. It is located adjacent to the pool area. Came in and was greeted right away by the waitress Sangria was delicious. We Tried the el asado experience. Which is 89/per person.It comes with salad, fried cheese and a generous serving of bread. Then you have a choice of different cuts of meat. We chose the skirt steak, pork belly and chicken thigh- all grilled on a bbq pit One of the highlights was the potato salad Word of advice: come extra hungry!

We were out at Crypto for a concert and planned to get dinner here a bit early for the concert…read morestarts. We walked in with no reservations and we were seated right away! Ambiance was amazing as everyone is talking about. They have done really good with the decor. Menu was great and they have good amount of options from fix menu about grill meat or à la cart. We had limits for appetizer and it was amazing. Highly recommend. For meal, we tried their classic lomo Saltado and Pollo à la Brasa. Both dishes were delicious and cooked to its perfection. Sauce with the pollo was delicious. I would recommend this plate. For drinks we tried couple of their cocktails and they were good but I couldn't see anything more special to be for $22/$23. Over all it is a great place to check it out. I am giving one star less is due to the some menu price which I was not able to justify. (Parking fee additional and no validation)

Got here about an hour before closing so the Mercado had a chill vibe in general and the lines were pretty short... So of course I took advantage of getting food items from a couple of locations! I specifically wanted the squash blossom quesadilla or quesadilla de Flor de Calabaza from Komal and the Tostada de Kanpachi + Uni from Holbox.... wow. I just felt so spoiled with so much delicious food available to me... and with little to no wait on anything! As expected, both the tostada and the quesadilla were fantastic and oh so aesthetically pleasing. I wish my stomach or appetite was bigger. I really do want to try some of the other spots that don't get featured as much... I guess there's next time. Always a treat when visiting the Mercado. Especially when there is a possibility of grabbing a lot of different high-quality bites at different places for the same meal. Because it was on the later side on a Sunday, parking in the lot was pretty easy to find.

We love to eat but can't put away that much so we had the Acevichado Sushi Roll, Tiradito de Salmon, & the Truffle Fries. Every single one was impeccable. - the roll is not at all authentic Japanese but the sauces, spice, textures, and everything in between are absolutely perfect. Would get 2 next time - the fries with the sauce were such a nice side that's an easy comfort food prepared with the perfect touch of elevated fine dining - the tiradito was the star of the show. A perfect blend of sweet and sour with the absolute most refreshing taste ever. I cannot emphasize enough how good this dish was. As someone who's traveled the world and eaten many dishes from many cultures in their home country, this here is hands down the best most refreshing tasting dish I've ever had. The music was just as fusion as the food made for a great vibe This place should never have a seat open nor a table not filled. Get in now before it becomes too popular for the average person to get seated. Not to mention how sick the owner is and how much heart and soul he truly puts into all these dishes. Being able to try each while getting a 1on1 with him on every dish was just the cherry on top

~ ALL LOOKS, NO SERVICE, BIG REGRET ~…read more Reviews looked good on yelp so my group opted to have an early dinner here, but wow... this was one of the most disappointing and uncomfortable dining experiences I've had in a long time. We came in around 5:30pm on a Saturday and the restaurant was literally empty. That should've been our first clue. We were seated and then completely ignored for about 25 minutes... no water, no menus, no check-in. We finally had to flag someone down just to acknowledge we existed. Things went downhill fast. When my pregnant friend asked if they had iced tea or coke, the server actually told her she shouldn't be having caffeine and suggested something else instead. That comment was wildly inappropriate, not her place, and absolutely unacceptable. Full stop! Ordering food took forever, and when it finally arrived, it was painfully underwhelming. Dishes were missing items listed on the menu, portions were small, and the prices were laughable for what you get... think expensive guacamole that barely feeds one person, croquettes that tasted frozen, and fries that felt like an afterthought. Add in an extra kitchen fee on the bill and it just felt insulting. Service overall was scattered and disengaged, the space didn't feel very clean, and for a party of 8 being the only guests there, it somehow felt like we were an inconvenience. No warmth, no hospitality, no accountability. This place tries hard to look like an upscale Latin fusion spot, but it's all surface-level. Between the disrespectful comment, slow service, overpriced and mediocre food, and awkward vibes, this was an easy never again. Please save your time, money, and energy.

When you enter their 24th floor it's quite spectacular…read more They're always shining with brilliant welcoming smiles. We sat at the bar for a little bite to celebrate my husband's birthday and boy were we so delighted by the appetizer we chose because it was hands down one of the best things I've tasted. We got their Aguacate Relleno which is an avocado stuffed with blue crab with puffed quinoa, yuzu pearls, and a garlic ajoblanco sauce. Their service was spectacular and the view was pretty nice.

Went to Sendero with a group of four for dinner and drinks. We didn't have reservations, but when…read morewe walked up the place was pretty lightly attended. Honestly felt like there were more staff than patrons. Despite that, it took over 15 minutes for anyone to even come to our table. Not a great start, especially for a restaurant at this level. Service was slow across the board, including drinks. It dragged to the point where we decided not to stay for dinner and left after our first round of cocktails. The space itself is beautiful and the views are obviously a big draw. Drinks were decent, but not enough to make up for the lack of service. Hoping this was just a one-off, but overall pretty disappointing.

I had heard so many good things about Pollo a la Brasa, so I finally decided to give it a try…read moretoday. Starting with the positives: the food is delicious. I ordered the quarter chicken with rice and salad, and I was really impressed with the portion sizes. Everything was flavorful, comforting, and gave me the kind of authentic Latin food vibes that I love. The sauce was definitely the highlight for me--it was so good that I found myself adding it to every bite. The prices are also fantastic. For the quality and quantity of food you get, this place is truly a gem. That said, there were a couple of downsides. The restaurant itself is very small, with limited seating available. The customer service also wasn't the best during my visit. Since the dining area was completely full when we arrived, we decided to place our order to go. While we were waiting for our food, a table opened up, so we asked if we could sit down and eat there instead. We were told that because we had ordered our food to go, we were not allowed to sit in the restaurant. I found that a bit disappointing, especially since we had already paid for the same food as everyone else dining in. Overall, the food was excellent and definitely the reason I would come back. If I'm in the area and craving their chicken, I'd absolutely return--just with different expectations regarding the seating situation and service.

A coworker of mine wanted me to try this place, said it was kinda new so we did…read more Ambience wise was pretty chill. Not that many people on a Friday noon. 4 or 5 tvs playing the world cup. Quiet, not too loud round that time of day. As always, every time I go to a Salvi restaurant is for the pupusas. I ordered 3 of them, with different fillings on rice flour. To cut to the chase, they were a solid 2.5 out of 5. Cheese tasted like regular jack. Chicharron was okay. Their tomato salsa was hella thin, almost like just red water, no taste all either. Pupusas also felt kinda undercooked. The rice flour kept sticking on my gums and teeth and believe me, it ain't supposed to be that way. Looked cooked outside but inside the flour was super soft almost, well, like raw.

Now this place is fairly new so they could use some more foot traffic but I am sure they will get there as soon as word spreads. FYI There is parking in the back of the restaurant. Look forward to get some sopa de pata there as well!
