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.

This is a nice casual place for good Mexican food. The margaritas as the name suggests are excellent.
great atmosphere, okay food, what happened to the drinks? – we live around the corner and had never been to this place. we decided to check it out (on a saturday night) without reservations. the atmosphere is fun - loud, but pleasant at the bar, the back patio slightly more quiet and more hip. very much the hollywood cattle call scene. all of our service was particularly friendly and pleasant, if a bit on the slow side (nothing that would deter us). the real surprise was the drinks: they were a bit gnarly. the velvet margari... read more
Awesome Grub...Drinks I will Pass.. – Having heard the hype about this place I had to taste for myself. When you walk in it has it's own vibe ...Host was super friendly.. Love the dancing dolls above the bar ... Since the drinks were organic with nothing mixed in .. I went for a Pink Puta which turned out to be NASTY.. I told the bartender it was bitter and he just added more tequila although i was more then willing to accept but the tequila was cheap and made it 10 times worse.. for a 12 drink not worth it service at the ba... read more
Not great, but not bad either – So I'm going over to meet some friends at Velvet Margarita for a quick bite and drink or two last night and the first thing that bites me in the wallet is the $10 for parking. Oh well, I enter the place and it looks like somebody dropped acid and designed the place with junk they found from a Mexican swap meet. That being said, food was just OK, drinks were pricey but good and it's a "different" kind of place to go and hang. I'd go back, but I would just have drinks.
ugh This place makes me angry. I looove a good margarita and some Mexican food, but this restaurant has neither. The service was incredibly slow, and instead of apologizing, the waitress gave attitude. The drinks are really overpriced, and the food was blah. If you want crappy drinks and Mexican food, save yourself some money and go to El Coyote.
Cinco de Mayo!!! – Went here Monday nite for Cinco de Mayo and had the best time ever!!!! We did have to wait in line a bit though. It seemed like everyone in Hollywood was there also trying to get in. Anyways, once we got in, IT WAS ON! Open bar, free food all night long, who does that??? Well I also heard it was their 4 year anniversary so they were feeling generous, to my delight. I danced too, which I never do, I guess I can thank those free-flowing margaritas for that. It was a blast!!!! Thanks VMC.
Best Mexican Food Around!!!! – We had a group of 10, we started with appetizers- Wow what a selection - my favorite was the salmon casadias. Their main courses were beyond what I expected, my favorite dishes are the chilli rellenos and green Chili Enchilada's! The atmosphere is amazing and of course the the velvet margarita in the pineapples made with real fresh fruit are the best I have ever tasted! I even saved room for their wonderful dessert, our whole table shared 4 different Desserts all great. The service and the staf... read more
BEST TIME! – This was my second year ay the VMC for Cinco de Mayo. The best party!! Margies were soooo good. I had the mole which was delish! Saw my big crush Dean Cain. He actually smiled at me and I froze but i've seen him here before so hopefully I'll get a second chance. Mariachis were so fun. Lot's of good looking people. Vince Vaughn was there with his crew. I've seen him there a few times too. I hope they invite me next year. Thank you to vmc for a gooood time and congrats on your 4 years of biz. awsome place!!
Just okay. – I've been to this place at least three times now: once for drinks and twice for birthday parties. Even dining with largish groups (between 8-12) for the parties, we were virtually ignored. If it takes more than 2 hours to have dinner, that's a bad sign. And each of us ordered 2-3 drinks, appetizers, and dinner. Even with reservations we had to wait around until all of our party showed up. Their house margaritas, for $8, are nothing special, and not that big (think - the size of a well drink). If you want a great... read more
