    I asked for NO CILANTRO it was put anyway!!! I made it very clear I didn't want it I love onions in my pozole they mixed cilantro with my onions ‍ I'm over it lol good soups tho!

    The City Stage C.

    Listen, folks. When I wandered into Que Ricos Vermont, I wasn't just looking for tacos. I was on a spiritual journey--a quest to find the meaning of life, one bite at a time. And what did I discover? That meaning comes wrapped in a warm tortilla, sizzling with carne asada, and seasoned with just the right amount of "you deserve this." Ambiance: The music slapped so hard, I almost got up to salsa with the napkin dispenser. The vibe here is a mix of "your cool uncle's backyard party" and "a neighborhood gem that refuses to go mainstream." You'll find yourself bopping along to the tunes while the scent of grilling meat whispers sweet nothings in your nose. Service: The staff? Incredible. Smiles brighter than a sunny day in East Hollywood, and they took my order like they had been personally rooting for me my whole life. I half-expected them to cheer when I said I'd take three tacos, but they kept it professional. What I Had: Three carne asada tacos. Or, as I now call them, "Three little miracles of beefy joy." Each taco was so perfectly constructed, I considered writing it into my will. Tender meat, fresh toppings, and a squeeze of lime so zesty it felt like a standing ovation in citrus form. Overall: Que Ricos Vermont isn't just a taco spot. It's a place where dreams come true, where bad moods evaporate, and where your dollar feels like it got a promotion. The tacos might be small, but the experience? Immense. Would I recommend it? Only if you like happiness, flavor, and being treated like royalty. Go there. Order the tacos. Thank me later.

    Breakfast Torta chorizo

    THIS PLACE WAS DELICIOUS AND QUICK. i got the asada fries and they were bomb af they were loaded and massive. my boyfriend got the breakfast torta and that was steaming when it came to the table. it was also LOADED. the service was good and quick and they were open. the ambiance of the place was spacious.

The menu is quite simple, but beware that no prices are listed on the main menu, but they are on the paper menus. They accept Apple Pay/credit cards. I ordered the asada burrito and the pollo caramelo and added the grilled poblano (as recommended on Yelp!). The tortillas were the true stars -- soft, nice chew, with a buttery mouth feel (probably lard). The fillings were just ok. The inside reminded me of a Taco Bell 7 layer burrito -- a lot going on but all the flavors kinda blend together. I (incorrectly) thought the beans were refried, but they are not. Whatever is going on inside, I didn't find much structure. The burrito was the best. The caramelo was a lazily folded burrito. I read that it was like a quesadilla, but I couldn't disagree more. I would skip this next time. I spent $25 and it was a lot of food, but I wasn't impressed, especially given the hype and the fact that LA should really be the pinnacle of Mexican food. Not sure if I'll make a second trip here.

Now when you pull up originally you might think, "am I in the right place" but once you park and get into the courtyard, it is LOVELY! Amazing ambience! There is a bocce set up, string lights. It is a little slice of oasis in the middle of the fashion district. The restaurant itself - beautiful. I couldn't ask for more. Absolutely perfect in my book. Beautiful plants hanging, perfect Spanish music in the background (any place playing Natalia LaFourcade is a win). The drinks were great! I had the jungle bird which was fun. Food was so good too. The whipped beans are the star! We had the guacamole which was tasty, great tostadas with it. The arepas were good but the pork belly was a little too fatty (I know pork belly is always fatty) to the point the fat muted the flavored for the arepa a bit, but still delicious. The empanadas were great and as someone who lived in South America and ate empanadas every day, these really took me back to my Paraguay days. The squash blossoms were light and perfectly fried. Unfortunately my friends had gone to Funke the night before so they were comparing the squash blossoms and Funke won out, but they still liked Dama's! Small plates were enough for the 3 of us. The service was quick and attentive. Parking was easy for us. I will definitely be back!

The staff are lovely humans who really seem to care about their customers. We have some faves on the menu. The bean dip is fabulous and I'm addicted to the baby gem salad. They have recently amped up the filling in the delicious crispy squash blossoms and I love the acidity and heat. The fish is also a hit in my books. One dish that doesn't work for me is the lamb chops, which is a shame since it's my favorite protein. I've ordered them multiple times with clear instructions on temperature and have found them overcooked and tough. The beef tostada was just ok. Whilst I loved the pickled veg on the side, the beef was underseasoned. It wasn't bad - just not up to the standard of other dishes. The vibe in the place is welcoming and the restaurant is nicely appointed. We will continue to be regulars and it's really worth trying if you haven't been yet.

Located between Koreatown and Pico-Union, this restaurant delivers an outstanding dining experience from the moment you're seated. My wife and I both ordered the Mole Coloradito with chicken, and it was absolutely delicious. One detail we really appreciated was being able to choose between white meat or dark meat--a thoughtful touch that lets you customize your meal to your preference. The mole was rich, complex, and full of flavor, exactly what you would hope for from a restaurant known for its Oaxacan specialties. As a welcome appetizer, they bring fresh chips and salsa to the table, but what really impressed us was when they replaced the salsa with their incredible mole sauce. It was so good we found ourselves dipping everything into it. Both meals were served with rice that was perfectly cooked with a great consistency and flavor. For those feeling adventurous, give the Chapulines (grasshoppers) a try. They may sound intimidating, but they were surprisingly enjoyable and added to the authentic experience.

As soon as you walk up the stairwell you'll be transported into this super cute place with an outdoor-indoor feel, almost like an elegant treehouse.

We ordered a few items to share: Cameron ceviche, flautas and for our sweet tooth, French toast paired with a mango sorbet surprise with a candle for our birthdays (tip: we drizzled the melted sorbet on our French toast and took small scoops with each bite - game changer!). Everything was so delicious! We also ordered mocktails, a miche-nada for him and a lemony drink for me. This experience wouldn't have been as great without the exceptional service we had.

I was excited when reading the menu and while everything sounds great, some of the items were underwhelming in size and flavor. Visually, the place is stunning. We were seated on the 2nd floor rather than on the first floor, which was cool. We got a view of the tree from our table. I ordered their version of a Piña Colada but it didn't hit the spot quite like I had envisioned when reading the menu. The cream was too thick and grainy. The aguachile was good. I forgot what version it was since this was for Mother's day, but it was definitely flavorful. The queso fundido was surprising! The Chicken Milanesa was a miss for me. I was told and warned it was huge, but I didn't enjoy the ham they placed on it. It was not enjoyable. The Chilaquiles were definitely better than my milanesa. Let's not forget the French Toast. I'm a french toast snob. Their french toast was DRY. The custard in the middle wasn't as sweet as I thought it'd be but the fruit was enjoyable. But it was overall dry. I believe we only got through 1/3 of it, which included the fruit. I may just go back and give it another chance, however, I might need to consult with my friends and see if they want to hang out for Brunch or for Dinner :)

And I live in Portland, which has really good vegetarian options. First of all, I could eat like 75% or more of the menu as a pescatarian. I was thrilled and so overwhelmed because I normally don't have that many choices! First of all, the water was infused and was delicious. I browsed the menu and had a really hard time deciding, but ended up on the cauliflower rajas taco, the crispy shrimp taco & the vegan Korean BBQ taco. The waiter recommended the crispy shrimp taco, but I actually enjoyed the vegetarian tacos more. I love cauliflower and poblano so that taco was a great starter. So much flavor and a variety of textures. The tortillas were super flavorful too. The potato taquitos came next and I am actually obsessed. The outside was perfectly crispy, the interior was soft, flavorful & cheesy. The sauce complimented it perfectly. I can not recommend them enough. The crispy shrimp taco was really good, but I also tried a crispy fish taco and would honestly get that over the shrimp. I think there was mango or something in the coleslaw of the fish taco because it had a really nice fresh flavor to it. Last, I had the vegan Korean BBQ taco. The mushroom shreds & the flavor were just perfect. Again, as a pescatarian I have really never had Korean BBQ because it's so heavily meat focused. I truly loved this taco. If I hadn't discovered it on my last night in LA, I might've come back on my short trip. The whole place is just a vibe and the food was beyond excellent.

They offer a "Mini" version which would be satisfactory for one person. My favorite thing about these burritos is how "home-made" they are, the salsas and meats are fresh and taste like they came out of an abuelitas kitchen. I still need to try the crunchy tacos and nachos which look great, I recommend trying this classic establishment at least once if you're in the area.

Scallop aguachile - wowwww the scallops were so fresh, literally bursting is my mouth. They were sweet, tender, and perfectly paired with the tangy lime sauce. Taco de pulpo - ok so this is pretty much an assembled pulpo à la brasas, BUT I will say the full meal was more tender because it was an entire grilled piece of grilled vs one tentacle.
