Great vibe, great service, great food! Sit outside and play Cornhole with your drinking buddies, or sit inside and watch old music videos and sports. Enjoy the free chips and salsa bar while downing copious amounts of Shiner Bock beer . The tacos and fajitas are excellent. Come and get a taste of Texas right here in North Hollywood! …

Waited at the bar for a while before being told that I needed to wait behind another guest in order to get a drink. I set right in front of the bartender and was never acknowledged. Completely disrespectful. I wanted to order drinks for the table because it was my friends birthday. Rather spend my money elsewhere. Total Bro Fest.

Its a hybrid between a lounge and a bar. It has very nice decor. The ambience is upbeat and social. I had the wet burrutto it was very good and filling. They have a nice patio area and nice happy hour. The only con is that the parking is terrible, they have none. Besides that a nice hangout place. Recommend taking uber there.

The bartender (Mike) was being racist towards me and my friends we kindly asked him for a drink and he ignored us and rolled his eyes. He was discriminating us and started whispering to the other bartender something about us while we were just trying to order a drink. Don’t come here if you’re a latino it’s not even worth it.

  • Jance Diaz

Not what it used to be before COVID. We ordered chicken nachos and beef burrito. The nachos had little to no meat and the burrito was mainly guacamole and some rice, no beans and no beef for some reason. Food was very poor and the drinks were too sweet. Had a headache from all the sugar and no tequila in my cup. More

  • Adam Satterfield

This place has gone downhill quite a bit. The food is not worth mentioning and the drinks are super watered down. It seems there’s not much effort involved and they’re just going through the motions to make a little money. Hopefully it’ll improve one day and be worth going to again!

  • Ken Sullenger

Happening spot with ok food and drinks. Prices are reasonable and portions are respectable. That said there is much better mexican food at other places. Fun bar with a beer pong table, corn hole, large size connect 4, etc. Gets busy at night and can be hard to find a table.

  • Omar Medina

I appreciated the drinks during happy hour. Complimentary chips with tasty and spicy salsa. The vibe is perfect for a happy hour or if you want to stay late. Late night was a party vibe and I would definitely go back. Shout out to the bartenders and workers there.

  • Edward Kelley

Go for the drinks, bathrooms are kinda messy, and the food is okay, not bad at all, but wouldn't go here to eat there better mexican food out there, but that's just my opinion. Overall, excellent time good place for drinks and hanging with friends. More

  • Euphoria S

Eric the bartender was extremely rude. We sat at the bar waiting to be helped then when he helped a customer before us (whom arrived after us) he proceed to say “okay cool” & did not acknowledge after we approached him. Very unprofessional Eric! More

  • Maral Hindoyan

I've been craving hard shell tacos for a couple of days. Not only is the shell the one I get from smart and final, there is barely any meat and no sauce. The cost of three tacos was over $15. It was a waste money and I won't be ordering again. More

  • Stephanie Vegas

Interesting texmex joint nestled in the heart of the noho arts district. Went there on halloween weekend around midnight and the dj was great and everyone seemed to be having fun. Got one of those large prickly pear margaritas and they were

  • Jonathan McClintic

Good Tex-Mex-Cali bar. Dallas Cowboys bar on NFL game days. Good food and decently priced drinks. Only knock is the crowd can be out of control. Just be out the door an hour or two before closing time to avoid showing up on the Citizen App.

  • J L

Tonight was my 3rd visit to this location and I'm going to tell you my go to drinks and food. You can't go wrong with the margaritas! Happy hour all day everyday allows you to get a larger version for $2. Chips and salsa are always free at

  • Sean Yuan

Ah the age old quest for real Tex-Mex/queso in LA. As a native Texan, my buddy told me that El Tejano would be right up my alley and it did not disappoint. Granted, the queso is Velveeta based so can't be compared to Escalantes (the golden

  • Tara Ryan

If you’re there to drink and play game then this is a great place. The drinks are cheap and plentiful, lots of big tv’s showing various games etc. They have very few soft drinks though. When we visited it was regular coke or bottled water

  • Timothy Bee

This is Tex-Mex for the California palate so don't expect the real thing, but it's pretty good. I saw lots of fellow Texas here and there atmosphere matches the vibes of Austin's trendiest Hangouts. There's a nice bar, lots of activities,

  • Ashley Juarez

This place is fun! It was a while since I've been here and they changed the music a bit, but I love it. The drinks are good and the chips and salsa bar is amazing! The food is good, nothing to get that excited for. My friends and I went

  • Ryan Thrower

Happy hour every day where you can double your drink order for two dollars or get a bigger size for that same price. Fish tacos were good, wasn’t crazy about the hot sauce on them but overall pretty good. Beers and food are a bit pricey

  • Jasmine Moniique

I didn't purchase any food but I did receive a small margarita. It was delicious and well made. Definitely enjoyed my short time there, I'll make an effort to visit again soon on a warmer day. Very friendly and open atmosphere. More

  • Samantha Healey

Great happy hour deal, got our second drink for $2. I love the warm chips and salsa bar, and our tacos and queso were delicious. I recommend the frozen watermelon margarita. Absolutely will be coming back for more!

  • Karen Kerns

This place is supposed to be TexMex. And they do have Shiner Bock on tap. Their Nacho's, however, are in no way like the ones I've had in Texas. Having said that, I liked the one I had at El Tejano MUCH better!

  • Monica Martinez

The two times I've been here has always been fun. I enjoy there large drinks. There chips and guac was very good. It was clean and sanitized. The waiter wiped our table first before we sat (which I liked btw)

  • Frank Gonzales

Fun, fine plant based options, great drafts. Tex Mex fine dining and sports on TV. Both patio's, one inside, 4 or more per party and on the outside patio. Also well behaved pet friendly! Warm and fuzzy hugs!

  • Lohara alberolini

got busy during the afternoon, they have good selections and it is great as a date spot! lots of cute couples sharing a big margarita! if you come with group of friends, you can play some outside games.

  • Shane C.

Cool place You basically order on a screen and pay there and they bring the food out to you. Seems like a hotspot for the younger crowd. Sort of loud but open later and food's decent. Fun place! More

  • Nicole Mazzilli

Very cool place to hangout with friends. There is a young crowd and it gets packed on the weekends. The margaritas are big and don’t taste too good but they get you drunk

  • Barbara Banks

It's definitely a place for the young crowd. Felt like a night club instead of a restaurant. Got carded before entering... drinks are amazing!

  • Bill Ivins

Place was great. We were here. On fajita Friday had a texas-sized margarita. It was amazing. People are very friendly. Had a very good lunch.

  • L

Come here to people-watch the "up-and-coming" influencers and for "okay"-priced drinks. Food is pretty bad. There's free chips and salsa

  • Lily Espitia

This place is so fun! We had a delicious Carne Asada burrito with rice and beans. I like how they have the chips & salsa station. More

Food was very good, good beer selection. Sticker shock when the bill came! But portions very generous, next time we will share!

Taco Tuesday? Yes please! The tacos were amazing. Bundle up because it can get cold on patio (in March, too, right?!) But

  • Aiden Benat

Tacos were awesome. Drinks were a pricey for how syrupy they are. But the atmosphere is awesome and a super cool place.

  • Gevork Asatryan

Ordered from here through Postmates and I was somewhat satisfied. 3-4 stars based on the 6 Tacos I ordered.
