Editorial Review for Gardens of Taxco – by Tara de Lis

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.

I wanted to take my girlfriend to a nice restaurant for her birthday which I had in mind Chinese. However, she mentioned that she wanted to go to “The Gardens of Taxco" now I have never heard of this place but, my girlfriend gave it a good review. Well she was on point, the minute we walked in I felt great, from the greeting that we received as well as the ambience. The food was so good there and the people really make you feel at home. I place this restaurant as one of my top choices to eat in Los Angeles. Not only was I sitting with the love of my life and the most beautiful girl there, I was enjoying some of the best Mexican food ever!

Pros: Great service

Cons: Can't think of any

1 Star Rating: Not Recommended

I've gone to Gardens of Taxco a few times in the past few years. The ambience is great and very fun. BUT....the food is "okay" and they try to make it special simply to charge more by adding on all these appetizers and some cream banana dessert. That's ridiculous! Many people who do not really know how fantastic Mexican food is, come here because the food is a bit more authentic than other Mexican restaurants, but it's not worth it at all. If you want great, authentic Mexican food go to La Serenata de Garibaldi in East LA, the area is not too nice BUT the restaurant is gorgeous and the food is amazing!

Pros: Great ambience

Cons: food, service takes too long

West Hollywood's boisterous prix-fixe casa remains firmly ensconced in 1971.  See the full editorial review.
