CherylMay 26, 2011Best Service EVER! + If you come on Friday night prepare to wait 1-2 hours wait time. Its a long wait but definitely worth it! and prices are ridiculously cheap and the food is well prepared!
ᴡ NaimyOctober 5, 2013Love this place. The food is always fresh and amazing. The portions are monstrous and the salsa is to die for. If your into salsas like me then this is your place! I give it 5 Stars!!!
- Expect to wait for a table, no matter when you go. Also expect it to be worth the wait, no matter what you order. Hit up the salsa bar! The jalapeno salsa (creamy green) is amazing, and pretty hot!
Erik AyalaOctober 24, 2016I absolutely love this Place !! The Beer is Fresh & The Bean Dip is to Die for !! * An Orgasm in your Mouth !! The Service & wait time is alright ...
ᴡ WonderMarch 27, 2013Make sure to fill up your empty bean dip dish with the awesome avocado salsa that they have in their salsa bar. Be careful, it looks just like the jalapeño salsa!!
Shabby KhaliliOctober 26, 2014Two Words: STEAK CHIMICHANGA. It will change your life. This place is local, affordable, and keeps you full for hours...if not, days.
Hair ColoristJuly 21, 2013Get here early before the crowds do. The Lines are long. Wear ear plugs everyone is talking over the music. The bean sauce is Amazing!

Mike ARANGOSeptember 12, 2013I had the carne asada with shrimp- bomb! The bean dip that they serve with chips- bomb! Ordered the Flan- the worst one ever.

Pace yourself with the chips and bean dip it's insanely delicious. Come with and apetite you wont be sorry...
- Art AOctober 24, 2012The best bang for your buck mexican food! The main reason I go though is to see the waitress Perla. She is so hot. I wonder if she's friendly...
- Ana PeralesOctober 12, 2012Also the Salsa And Beer I am speaking of is on Sherman Way and Lankershim right by the original Home Depot ! Enjoy great food and history !!
Always expect a wait for a table and for food. Fortunately, the food is so worth it!!! 😍👌🍴
Ezra EdmondAugust 24, 2011Don't forget to check the back of the menu for super cheap combo plates! They are super tasty, cheap, and TONS of food!- Jeffrey BauerSeptember 19, 2014Their enchiladas, burritos, and chicken tacos are outstanding. Nothing in this area quite compares.
Jared BakerSeptember 16, 2012Servings, even on starters, are huge! You may think you've got a small, order, but you're getting lots of food.
The best avocado salsa I've ever had! The wait can be long, but the delicious food & excellent service is worth it.
Arnie PanameñoMay 1, 2017This location is horrible in terms of space but it's still the same great food!
Genevieve Nichole LeeDecember 24, 2013So great! Service is a bit slow, but the food is very worth it!
jennifer b.June 26, 2012they use a different alcohol in their margaritas so it isn't actual tequila because of the lack of liquor license. so you're pretty much stuck w/ beer. the noho location has alcohol though!
Jimmy MurilloNovember 8, 2010Two words: "Zacatecas Carnitas." Easily one of the best Mexican plates anywhere!
Glenna HorowitzMay 3, 2012The food is awesome. Service? Not so much... Just come here with patience and you'll be fine :)
Usually a long wait so put your name in and get a quick pitch at the Buck
Brittany WilsonJanuary 30, 2011The bean dip is on point but the guacamole is not actual guacamole, it's more like an avocado paste, but it's still good!
A friend of mine died for the bean dip. I hope you think it's delicious or his death will mean nothing.
Erick CalderonMay 29, 2010My son (5 yrs old) loves the great food. Nachos and tacos are awesome. It looks like Cinco De Mayo in here!
Scott EatonApril 17, 2010The Fish tacos are slammin! Lots of food for the money too!! All the food is great!
The word got out. This place is really crowded for both lunch and dinner. Prepare to wait.
