flaming margaritas – the thing with el compadre is really the novelty of the margaritas. The food is good as well, but not "the best in los angeles" by any means. a good time though
Great place to bring out of town guests. This is the best place for Mexican food on this side of town!! the ambiance is great and the service has been excellent every time I've been there. Great place to bring out of town guests for a great time and great food.
Pretty good basic Mexican food. . . Not too much to say about this place--good local Mexican joint with live mariachis. The drinks are good, the food is tasty but unremarkable. . .good for satisfying that greasy food craving, but not worth a special trip.
El Compadre Rocks! If you want great Mexican food, awesome margaritas and great service you have to check out El Compadre, it is an awesome place to eat. The waitresses are friendly and the drinks are outstanding.
Yummy Mexican Food I love their flaming margaritas, their Chicken Mole, and hard shell tacos. I think that this is one of the best Mexican restaurants in LA. It has a festive atmosphere and good service. The last two times my hubby and I went there, the food wasn't as good as it normally is, but I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. They did have 2 large birthday parties going at the same time.
El Compadre Located on the Sunset strip this is a happening spot any night of the week. Enjoy the margarita with tacos and guacamole. You can't go wrong with any meal selection. Live music and great atmosphere. Staff was very friendly.
Legendary margaritas? Really? – I really like the ambiance of this place. The decor is nice and dimly lit and occasionally there is a band playing. Sometimes I'll just watch sports on either of the two tvs at the bar. I've been here a few times and usually have a good experience with drinks and food, but tonight the drinks were pretty disappointing. My friends and I ordered margaritas at the bar which tasted more like sweet tarts mixed with pixy sticks. We could barely taste any alcohol in them and it left me with more of a ... read more
Bomb – El compadre is my fav mexican getaway in LA.. LOL. Their tamales are the bomb.. order the corn tomales and tell you dont like them.. if you don't your taste buds got problems
Yuck. – This place is disgusting. I have too many friends that like mexican restaurants based on their chips and salsa and their drinks. The drinks might be alright, but the food is terrible. The salsa is good, but the chips are just heated store bought chips, nothing special. I've been here a few times and I can't do it anymore. Their huevos rancheros plate is an unrecognizable blob of grease on a plate. Their chicken in a burrito is oven roasted whole chicken with skin fat and just yuck. Do yourself a favor and don't eat h... read more
