Chiguacle, Cevicheria y Cantina — Restaurant in Los Angeles

Wish I read review before I wasted my time to come here, service was so bad my group and I walked out. Came in Wednesday 9/27 around 1230pm, walk in and bartender on her phone we asked if we can just sit anywhere and she just ignored us. We walked in a bit more and a stocky girl with glasses with attitude told us “I’m your server” so I asked agin “so it’s self seating?” She told us to sit anywhere . We sat at a table mind you the place was empty 1 other person by himself, and another table of 4 besides us. We sat down while she was on her phone texting. Few minutes passed and she came over told us we can sit any table except the one we are at cause it’s dirty. I asked if there was a table with menues and she took offense. And said I didn’t bring menues cause I was running food. Once again places was dead and she was on her phone. So we order sodas and she just went by the bar and got on her phone are a few min of her just on her phone we decided to leave. Horrible service dead as well so no reason for such bad service just seemed they didn’t want to be there, we ended up going around the corner to eat. Have no idea how the food is but if service is an indication...

My family and I ate here before, and the food and service were great, but this time, the service was terrible. The hostess at the front of the restaurant was rude, inattentive, and quite frankly lazy. She told us it was a 20-minute wait for a table. We waited more than 20 minutes, so I went inside to see if it really was that crowded, to which the hostess made an attempt to get my attention to distract me from going inside. The tables were all dirty, and no one was cleaning them. It was then the hostess asked someone to clean a table for us. When we were finally sitting after about 45 minutes at this point, there was still an empty beer bottle and an empty water bottle at the table. When I grabbed them and gave them to the hostess, she acted with such an attitude about getting them. My family and I then waited longer, thinking we were going to order soon, we didn't no waiter or waitress came to the table at all. So we decided to cut our losses and just leave. A whole hour wait just to sit at a dirty table. I can understand that they might have been understaffed, but there was no reason to have that hostess out there on her phone instead of helping out clean...

Delicious food. Super tasty, hot, fresh. Handmade tortillas, unlimited café de la olla, unlimited agua fresca. Everything was so good. We came in this past Sunday after baptizing my baby and we really enjoyed. Even though it was a Sunday, it wasn’t too busy like when they are almost kicking you out lol We really enjoyed everything. The only thing I wish was that they had a bit more of toppings for the food. Like pico de gallo, ensalada de nopales o verduras. Something like that to compliment your food. Our server was Clara the bartender and Wow! She know how to treat people super good. Such a great girl with a super nice smile and really enthusiastic. That’s what makes a good restaurant, good costumer service and delicious food. The prices are a bit expensive if you order from the carta but for buffet it’s perfect. They do add the tips to your check so be aware if you don’t have extra $30 for tips. But for 6 adults and one baby, it was worth it. We will definitely be...
