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)

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.

You can check out their Instagram page for current info & more pictures/videos. They are located outside a laundromat and there are a few other street vendors next to them. They do have a few seats to sit and eat if you want it super fresh & crispy.

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.

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!

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)

When I first moved to Los Angeles, I lived in this neighborhood. I couldn't help but think that if…read moreI still lived in the area, there's no doubt I would be hanging out here. The bartender was friendly, and my spouse and I really enjoyed stopping in for a drink before heading to dinner. The vibe is relaxed with a Latino influence, and I especially liked the open-air setting. We're definitely spoiled with the weather here in Southern California. They do serve food, but since we already had dinner plans, we didn't try any of it. So this review is strictly based on our experience stopping in for drinks.

The restaurant was pretty dirty and the bathrooms were DISGUSTING. I had to beg a restaurant across the street to use their restroom. But, the food we ordered was mostly really good and the service was very friendly and accommodating. We even had a birthday cake with us and they offered to put it in their fridge for us and didn't charge us any extra for cake plates. We had a large group so we ordered some drinks and the giant sampler platters. Everything on them was really good except the chicken wings and pork belly were a little dry and nothing special. Pretty meh. But I loved everything else. The other thing that I don't personally love is that they have a have DJ playing music and talking as well as large tvs playing sports, so the restaurant is really loud. Like you can't hear the person right next to you. If that's your vibe, then check it out but I felt really overstimulated by the time we were done and couldn't wait to get out of there. I'm glad I got to try Escala but I don't know that I'd seek this place out again, unless it just happened to be convenient. Parking sucks in this area and there are so many amazing restaurants in K-town. I'd rather keep exploring.
