In Short
Like a dark comfy home in Mexico circa the early '70s, this West Hollywood hideaway is decked out with tin flowers, funky wood paneling and faux stained glass. Gregarious waiters decked out in guayaberas sing basic entree choices like beef, chicken and shrimp dishes to guests. The menu consists of five courses--appetizer selections can include cheese quesadillas, shredded beef enchiladas and albondigas soup. A shot of sherry and banana pudding completes the meal.

Gardens of Taxco is a great meal at a great price. There is no menu, so it's as easy as it can get. First you get vegetables and chips (of course), followed by a small quesadilla, then an enchilada, then your main course with rice beans and tortillas, and at the end with a dessert and a glass of sherry. By the way we got a pitcher of a great margharitta as well. Our bill came to $66. Go and enjoy!

The food is consistently good, as are the margaritas. This is not somewhere you go for a quick meal. Plan on spending some time enjoying the fun, yet slightly cheesy atmosphere.

This has been one of my favorite restaurants since the early 1970's. The waiters are fabulous and so effecient. No Menus is a nice touch. The food is the best I have found. My children have all eaten here at some time and still talk about their experience. My older children have returned on their own over the years. I now live in the Antelope Valley and look forward to my trips to Hollywood to enjoy dinner here. I will come back again and again. The wait can be long but the food makes it well worth the wait.
