Whole staff has a chill, sweet vibe here. Very friendly and helpful staff. Female manager is super nice as well. She's doing a great job with this place! Excellent food and beautiful indoor seating! read more

Great service margaritas and food!!!! Ambiance was so nice!! Highly recommend Tocaya

Another foofy Mexican joint trying too hard. Fried fish taco was probably the highlight. Shrimp taco was very underwhelming and lacked flavor. Mushroom quesadilla was really bleh. Guac with plantains was OK just too much stuff in the guac. Who needs pomegranate seeds in their guacamole? Might try it again as it's fairly new and maybe that was a flook. read more

Tried calling about a catering order for days. Doesn't even ring, just says inbox is full. Catering line also never answers...

Have nothing but great things to say about this location. Food is great, location is great and the staff is amazing. I've visited this location many times, and my experience is always amazing every time. Highly recommend this restaurant! read more

Mixed reviews. Pros: love the salads, fresh, good portion. Free refill on chip and drinks. Very friendly service. Cons: food takes forever to come out. I have been here about 5 times. I thought it was a one-off thing the first time it happened, then it happened again subsequently. It should not take 20 mins to get a salad to go. The restaurants did not appear to be busy and there was plenty of staff in the kitchen. I hesitate coming back here, especially if I want a quick meal. read more

Ended up at Tocaya because the place we wanted to go to wasn't open yet. It's a beautiful space with decently priced bougie Mexican-ish food. We realize it's a pretty new place but the manager, in a striped shirt, was extremely hover-y. He stopped each worker that we interacted with at least once: to correct how someone was checking Covid info, how both waiters were dealing with customers. It made me nervous just to watch. Dude must chill. read more

Food is a little too spicy, blend spicy. The tortilla are great, but the balance between meat salsa and queso is too much on the cheese side. The chips are too thick. We ordered "to go" and there is so much plastic containers! Maybe the chips in a paper bag would be better. The restaurant itself is really beautiful and the outside is stylish, welcoming people. I really wanted to like this place, I hope they fine tune and listen to their customers and improve the food. I don't think customers want to eat tacos made like in early 2000. Even the multiple "Birria" tacos trucks taste better. Anyway, I will be back to try again one day. read more

I really wanted to like this place, because I barely go out anymore, but I just can't give them more stars. The restaurant was freezing cold. Everyone, including myself, my child and my husband was wearing their coats, huddled up. How can you enjoy your food if you can't even feel your fingers? The food came. My corn was too spicy and my burrito was too spicy and there was no alcohol in my margarita. The two stars were for the scenery and my husband enjoyed his burrito. Won't be returning. read more

The staff at the register and bartender were very sweet and appreciated their hospitality. Daniel R and Jenny, thanks again! :) read more

We stopped by today, cool place! We were greeted by a friendly guy who guided us through the menu after I told him that it was our first time at the new Tocaya. We only waited a few minutes for our large order. The guy was so cool to let us take a few extra salsas and he even added an extra box of chips. Love this place. read more

Foods great... wonderful for big groups. Staff is friendly and accommodating. Definitely a great addition to studio city.

Every time I come in here I get helped by my boy Daniel R. Always has a smile on his face and always making sure everything is going well. Service and food is great here. My favorite Tocaya location read more

Food was delicious but came out cold! Chips n queso were warm. But tacos and street corn were cold. Not room temp - cold.

Food was delicious, great location. However, we (and the table next to us) found it very distracting that the kitchen was playing their own music (reggaeton) so loudly that it interfered with the tranquil music playing in the seating area. If the kitchen is going to play their own music, at least keep the volume down to appropriate levels. The whole time we ate, it just was not a comfortable ambiance. Please train your staff appropriately. read more

Daniel rosales was amazing! They ran out of jalepino for my margarita but he managed to put something together. This was the best first experience at Tocaya read more

I started off really enjoying the food at Tocaya in Venice and when the Studio City location opened, was quite excited! On the positive end, the location is clean and the staff is always friendly. Food on the other hand is never consistent- out of the 5 times I have been there, only 1 time the food was fully cooked and the portion size was decent. More often that not, the beans/rice/veggies are all undercooked with smaller and smaller portions every time. For the prices they charge, food should be fully cooked and ample portions. I will skip this location and stick to going to the Venice location from here on out. read more

This place is far from being a Mexican or "modern Mexican" restaurant. I've never heard of a "Mexican" restaurant where tacos Al pastor are made out of beef . Worst tortilla soup without tortillas ever! The burrito a big disgusting mush! Baja tacos supposed to be fish but decided to put beef. Chorizo made with beef? Wtf? Employees rude tons of cumin in dishes totally disgusting . Will never go back read more

Great Food! Nice location, Awesome service! Staff is very helpful and friendly. The food was so good, definitely recommend the taco combo with a margarita! read more

Great vibes and even better food! The outdoor patio is relaxing and great for catching up with friends!!

Terrible location. They never brought our drink, so my husband asked for it to be reimbursed. The bartender was extremely rude about giving us a receipt for the refund. And then she threw the receipt at us. Completely uncalled for. read more

Jackie and the chef are absolutely amazing. The good is incredible. Jackie was so sweet when we ordered and made the whole experience beyond pleasant. Definitely coming back, the best tocaya! read more

I loved my experience here. The customer service was amazing! The workers here are so nice and welcoming. The atmosphere is beautiful. The windows, the plants, the chairs, everything is so pleasant. The food here is so flavorful! I barely waited any time for my food. I strongly recommend coming to this location, you won't regret it! read more

Wonderful doesn't even begin to describe my dining experience at Tocaya. First of all, it's located in the cutest plaza, The Sportsmen Lodge! Surrounded by the cutest stores and restaurants. Tocaya itself is aesthetic, love the vibes!! All the workers there are kind and understanding, always willing to go the extra mile to ensure 100% satisfaction. Finally, the food is delicious. My favorite item right now is the Salmon Bowl but you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. If you're ever feeling stuck on what to grab for lunch, dinner or even breakfast-- check out Tocaya for a yummy, fun, grub!! read more

I decided to try Tocaya today after hearing great things about it and let me tell you, I was not disappointed! The menu was overwhelming because of all the great options, but my cashier Sydney was amazing-- by recommending me the new Yucatán Chop salad!! It was tasty and left me with a craving for more. I will definitely be back with my whole family! read more

I Am never going to return to Tocaya again. The food was unacceptable and not like the good Mexican which is available all over the city. Plus ordering was tedious. Including collecting digital information and endless emails plus pre-payment for food. Sarah read more

Decided to go to Tocaya in Studio City on Friday night, since it's new to our neighborhood and we wanted to check it out, and because they have an outdoor patio area (which makes it pet-friendly!). The service was great and very speedy (thanks to Daniel R. - our server and cashier), and they even ended up sending us extra guacamole w/ plantains, as well churros for dessert, free of charge. Love the atmosphere, the chill/pet-friendly vibe, and the delicious food. We'll definitely be coming back here! read more

Disappointed. The homemade vegan queso was the consistency of soup. The vegan taco trio was tasty but not amazing . The floor was a bit dirty and they were out of the churro waffles by noon on a Sunday. read more

I absolutely love this chain. But this location's food was disgusting and nothing like the Sunset Weho Location. The food is TOP NOTCH there. Always get the keto bowl. At this location it was one pile of over cooked mush. I'm not giving up on this location but I hope they get it up to par with the others. Nothing about the meal felt fresh. Had I never experienced what the food can be like at other locations... I wouldn't have ever gone back. It was bad. read more

Great food and service...Danny is amazing and always takes care of us to make sure everything is perfect at our table. Definitely recommend dining in as the decor and patio area is great. Mr.Anderson read more

This tocaya is my favorite one! Super nice great staff. Bomb margaritas ! Love this place !!

The food was amazing and the service was even better! Kameko and Jackie were amazing servers and the food was amazing. Very pretty seating and the overall vibe was so nice. I love to come here with my friends when we're craving something mexican. read more

Kameko and jackie are such nice workers here at tocayka!! Service is great and the food is amazing with such good options. Love it here too

Came here for the first time and the service was very good. Jackie was so nice in helping me decide for what to get on the menu.

I live just 1/2 mile from this restaurant and was so excited to see this added to the new Sportsman's Lodge mall. I have been here four times and the freshness of the food and wait service are under oar. One visit out of four the food was fresh and hot. The other times the mahi mahi fish taco was hard, cold and seemed like it was leftover from the day before! Wait service has never been even average - they don't bring napkins or utensils with food and every time try to take away placard when all of the order has nit been delivered yet! On every occasion had to ask for utensils and twice had to go up to the bar to get it when it wasn't delivered after politely asking. Friends wanted to check it out so I complied even though I relayed my experiences. Too bad it is so inconsistent. I will be frequenting the other restaurants at the mall and NOT Tocaya in future. read more

Tocaya pushes you to order through their app. I have tried to do this three times without success. Just error messages. When I get to the restaurant, wait in line, and tell the cashier, they always tell me the same thing. "Yea, the app never works. " I have emailed "customer service" several times and have never heard from them. The food is not that great to go through all this trouble. read more

Amazing place to come and enjoy great ambience, food and drinks! The service is great and the bartender Daniel R is right on point with the margaritas, highly recommend spicy margaritas read more

Tried this place out because of the vegan options. If you're looking for more authentic vegan Mexican food I'd recommend Sugar taco and El Cocinero but don't let that take away from the fact that the food here is pretty good. Let me start off by saying the burritos are pretty big and filling. I had a guiltless burrito with adobo tofu and no cheese. The tofu was good and the cauliflower rice was seasoned really well. I'd recommend adding pico de gallo too. The salsas are flavorful, not spicy imo. Veggies were fresh and tortillas were really good. I'm pretty sure the vegan chipotle crema is mayo based because it wasn't very crema-y to me. Still good if you like mayo The guac is a lil weird. I don't know why it comes with pomegranate seeds I'd remove those. Fresh avocados though! Chips were also pretty salty. Overall a solid place to dine at. The outdoor seating is nice. Nice employees, helpful cashier, decent service. Pricey but you taste the ingredients so I don't see it as a waste. Come back weekly :) read more

Amazing service. Incredible food. The ambiance is everything !!!!!!! I love the tacos and the sides and especially the margaritas. We love Jackie at this location she is so helpful and made great suggestions ! This place is a staple. read more

This place is going downhill fast.the service and quality is really going down the toilet. Smh I used to like it there. What a shame...
