The Scene – Born of the gringo Mexican craze of the 1930s (which also spawned Olvera Street's tienda look), this joint has all the trimmings: black velvet paintings, Christmas lights galore and waitresses in embroidered folk dresses. Families, college kids and gay dinner dates keep the place packed at all hours. – – The Food – The cuisine is firmly grounded in canned beans, salsa roja that resembles stewed tomatoes and limpid pools of cheddar cheese. It's far from authentic Mexican--that's the point. It's big, it's cheap, it's fun and it's there to buffer the effects…
Just order the carnitas and scratch margarita
by ShanePHall at Citysearch
Stick to the basics, crunchy chicken tacos, margaritas, carnitas. Occasionally the tostada works too.
- Pros: Tallest glass of wine in town.
- Cons: They don't drive you home.
Everything I expected and more

Incredible service and the food was outstanding. Next time I visit LA I'm booking a hotel as close as possible. Make sure El Coyote is on your list, you won't regret it.
- Pros: Everything, my list is too long.
- Cons: None, if there's a line it's worth the wait.
