About this business
The Marix Tex Mex Cafe is not strictly a gay bar and restaurant, mostly because it's mainly a good Mexican restaurant. The clientèle is mostly men from the surrounding West Hollywood area here to check out the scene, get a drink and possibly an inexpensive meal. The wait for a table for dinner can be a long one. Many prefer to enjoy the comforts, and the crowd at the bar instead. The drinks are filled quickly by a hard-working, friendly staff.

A very straight-friendly gay restaurant... great scene – Yes it is all true, a great LA institution. Sunday late afternoons are crazy crowded and fun. Boys. Boys. Boys...
delicious Tex Mex and fun atmosphere – Marix mhas the bext Tex Mex in LA. Fantastix margaritas as well. Always friendly service and very fun and lively atmosphere. be sure to check out taco Tuesdays and get there early to get a table!
Feel-good, fun place with tasty Mexican food – This place has good vibes. Just go there for a margarita (the Kick-A$* margarita is a favorite), for some good solid fajitas, and make sure you get the queso dip (it's worth the calories for that hot, rich cheese cut with a slight jalapeno kick). Their takeout is also excellent.
Great Mexican Food, Even Better Margaritas – As the other reviews have said over and over, the margaritas at Marix are great. But the food is just as great. Everyone at my table loved their food and drinks. Also, I am not normally a fan of flan but Marix makes excellenet flan. A nice aspect of the restaurant is the retractable awning which can turn most of the restaurant into nice patio dining. The place is always packed and I have heard that the best time to get a table is Sunday afternoon (it worked, we walked right in and... read more
Guaranteed Good Time – Marix has been a hot spot in the West Hollywood scene for years...and for good reason. Lets start with margaritas - insanely good. Whether blended or on the rocks, mango or classic, these margaritas will not dissapoint on flavor or on...uh....'impact'. Food is the best Tex-Mex around...literally. Outdoor dining, fun crowd and friendly staff. Hitting Marix late on a Sunday afternoon/early evening is a WeHo tradition, place is packed and wait for a table long...but just keep drinking the pitchers of marg... read more
Bad Attitude... – 5.07.06 While waiting nearly 20 minutes for a couple of salads my guest and I figured we better inquire about the delay... the waitress working found it necessary to explain one guy worked on sandwhiches and salads and that if I our food was ready should would have brought it. "Beautiful" at the moment the host had arrived with our food, clearly the waitress seem to have been skeward she never returned instead let the host finish our transaction. High drama for a little lunch.
One of my favorites! – Marix was one of the first restaurants I went to when I first moved to L.A. I love it. It's cozy, and the food is great. You have to valet because there's no where else to part but that's alright. I love the food and the margaritas are great. They play good music that gives the place a great vibe. Last fall I had the best pumpkin soup. I still think about it!
I love it! – When my husband and I want a romantic night out we go to Marix. It's fantasitic dining under the stars with a feel of a vacation resort. Relaxed and intimate, but at the same time noisy and busy. I've never felt comfortable sitting at a table butted up next to other people, but for some reason, here it works. The food is healthy and fresh and the margaritas are excellent. The music is usually pumping with new electronic trance with an occasional Madonna thrown in and that's why we love it. Try the apple pie, oh ... read more
so downhill – I've been going to Marix for close to 20 years and in the past year or so I've tried to ignore a sharp decline in its food quality. I'm very sad to see how packed it still is regardless of how little Marix's seems to care about its food preparation. At least the chips and salsa are still good, but even the chips have changed quite a bit. Sorry to see an institution become medicre at best.
