Sorry guys, but this is another one of those places where I don't agree with the majority.
Located in the new Grammercy plaza on Russell and the 215, it is not visible from the street. You have to drive to the back of the building. Once inside, the decor is cute and has a Day of the Dead theme meets LA street art. There is a food truck looking counter to order to go, but if you want to eat in, you can just seat yourself.
SERVICE:
Our waitress (didn't get her name) wasn't super friendly, but she was the only one waiting on ALL of the tables. She looked overwhelmed and I felt her pain as a former food server. I saw that other tables were still waiting for their drinks while we had already received ours. And the two women that came in and ordered to go were waiting over 15 minutes. My BF finally got our server to smile a bit when he paid for the tab and mentioned how busy she was.
FOOD:
I don't want to be mean or anything, but I didn't really care for the food. The rice was sooooo bland. Our tacos had liquid dripping from them, which made the tortilla soggy, which in turn made the taco fall apart. There was hardly any meat in the tacos. You could taste more onion and cilantro than anything else. The horchata and Mexican corn were the highlight of the meal.
I really wanted to like this place because of all the positive reviews. Even if I was in the area, this wouldn't be on my places to eat list. I guess I still have to drive to the north side of town to get decent tacos.
