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.

Not open for Cinco de Mayo – Look, it's Hollywood. Anyone expecting top notch service in a crowded bar atmosphere at a place called The Velvet Margarita is a moron. The food is fine, drinks are great, atmosphere is like a Three Amigos vision of a Mexican restaurant. But they are CLOSED for Cinco de Mayo for a private party. Unbelievable.
Great if you're a kid – I had a reservation for $8pm and wasn't seated until 9:45pm. We waited at the bar which became VERY crowded. The host was nice as was the waiter. Very attentive waiter. The drinks are pricey so expect to buy a lot waiting for 2 hours at the bar. If you want the same quality of food and don't want to wait 2 hours to be seated even though you have a reservation, go to La Barca.
Quirky, festive atmosphere – My husband and I had Saturday night reservations with five friends who were visiting for the weekend. We were greeted warmly by the hosts, and after our entire party arrived, we were seated promptly. Jeremy, our server, was personable and attentive, and the service was impeccable. The food is standard Mexican fare, and house margaritas only set you back $5 -- a bargain for Hollywood.

Good Food/Drinks My friends and I had a get-together at this restaurant/bar and they reserved us a separate room upstairs. The room was great and the atmosphere was still very bar-ish which was nice because we didn't feel isolated or separated from the scene (we could see over and out into the bar and restaurant areas). The food was good and the portions were good, but it was a bit pricey for the quality of food. The drinks were amazing. One of my friends got an amazing pina colada that came in a coconut!
Great for a big group! – It was my birthday and I made reservations for 10 three weeks before the date. I ended up having to add 6 more people to our reservation the week of and Velvet Margarita was completely accommodating. They gave us a whole corner of the restaurant near the bar. Our server, Travis, was super polite and treated us incredibly well. The food was the great, the drinks were great and even our friends who weren't "drinking" seemed to have a good time. This was my favorite restaurant in Hollywood before my bir... read more
Like No Other... – Love it. Love it. LOVE THIS PLACE! It?s so refreshing to come to a restaurant/ bar where everyone from the servers to the bar tenders and everyone in between is so friendly.

Can?t wait to go back!
What do ya get when you take... one part - "Welcome to the Jungle", one part - "Margaritaville", one part - "Wasted Days & Wasted Nights", and blend it on high with a splash of every Salsa anthem you can think of ??? Duh. Velvet Margarita of course!
