francis guilardi los angeles, caI have to agree with everyone on here. Please do not go this "El Cholo," it is nothing like the real deal original in K-Town. The service was horrible, food was horrible, everything was bad. Do not get the seafood, b/c it tastes old, the shrimp was rubbery, the crab was really rank, and they screwed up our order, even though we expressly told them no cheese, they still brought it out. They sat us in wedding chairs in a very small table. Absolutely horrible. February 6, 2006
Carlo Gento LA, CAVERY BAD SERVICE, THE WAITRESS WAS VERY ANGRY, THE FOOD NOT REALLY GOOD, UGLY MOJITO............... September 15, 2005
Simon LA, CAA disappointment, not up to the standards of the original run by the Dad. Too corporate, and the food is blah. Nice building but looks like a set at Universal. Margaritas will give you a headache the next morning because they don't use 100% agave in their house margarita. Cutting costs? Write a review | Read more reviews Venue Details
