About this business

La Velvet Margarita Cantina serves up family recipes handed down through the generations in an ambiance that is Hollywood swank with Mexican flare. Aside from the extensive menu, a long list of colorfully titled drinks include the Pink Puta and the Velvet Gringo, and of course, the restaurant's namesake La Velvet Margarita. It is a Hollywood hot-spot, so dress accordingly, who knows which star you might see enjoying their Pink Puta.

finally something different! – I'm Latino and thought I had seen it all! Writing in to say that I finally found a place in LA that makes me proud of my culture. Food AUTHENTIC... not what maybe some people are used to. It's what I grew up on. Art work and decor...you have to go back a few times to take it all in! (which I plan on doing) Bravo!

Cool vibe; old hags – I was digging the chic Mexican vibe. The outside bar only serves Mixican beers. The music is even fun for a while. The problem is that the bar is populated with Middle age singles. Not exactly what most bar patrons have n mind when seeking a hot crowd. However, if you are into hittin' the older chics this is the place to go. Based on my experience, they litteraly reach out and grab you.

Fun Place Just a little hard to get a drink – Overall An above average bar, Fun and very nicely decorated. The only flaw w/ this place is the main bar is always to crowded by the time you get a drink the night is over! They have a nice patio bar that is cash only! which is ok if the place had an ATM near by! In All honesty I will return cause it's a nice place just try to come check it after you have a couple of drinks somewhere else because it will be an ice age before you get through the slow bar service!

Great food! – I went to the VMC for the first time last night to celebrate my birthday with my friends. We had a great time. The food was sooo good! I had the ahi tuna tacos which were the best fish tacos I've had in quite a while. Another member of our party had the chicken enchilada with green tomatillo sauce that she was said was delicious. The staff was friendly, however the service was a bit slow. It got really crowded and I can't imagine not having reservations. The cocktails were quite stiff although a litte pricey. I... read more

Funky Decor--Pretty Good Food – It definitely has a funky decor, but very appropriate to what you'd find in Hollywood anyway. Kind of dark inside but I guess that's feel of the place. Chips were awesome with their 3 dips! I think that was a meal in itself for me! Do not miss out on their special Enchilada with Green Tomatillo sauce! It was delicious! But didn't care for their fish taco though...very "fishy" taste, if you know what I mean. Ugh! Their pomegranite margarita was a'ight. I didn't even taste the pomegranite. It ju... read more

Nothing special...nothing terrible. – The ambiance is pretty cool, but that is about the oly thing that makes this place stand -out. The service was a bit on the tardy side...not sure if it was the cooks, waitress or poor management. It is pretty noisy in the restaurant area, so not exactly a romantic spot. They have a fair out door area...they should invest in a covering. Overall.....average.
