El Farolito — Restaurant in Los Angeles

I hesitate to rate this place, as it was truly a hidden gem, and I'd love to keep it that way.

It was about the size of a small bedroom, but had two of the friendliest bartenders and the coziest atmosphere I've seen in a long while. The drinks were fantastically made, and the conversation was freeflowing and natural.

I even had the pleasure of helping one of the bartenders come up with a drink to use his tamarindo reduction, and we tried a few different variations, debating back-and-forth about ratios and ingredients.

All-in-all, would highly recommend this place-- it was described by several people as "the bartender's bar," and if you hit it early enough in the night, you'll have the place to yourself. Wait until a little later, and you'll meet a constant stream of local bartenders coming in to...

Horrible food and service!!! I went with my girlfriend and mom, when we got chips and salsa , we thanks her, when she brought drinks and food we did it again, she never said, " you are welcome " chilles rellenos they spouses to be stuffed with mozzarella or monterrey jack cheese, it were with American or cheddar cheese. Not coming...

It's so horrible service because the waitress she is so rude she doesn't have education and respect to the customers maybe she doesn't know how to a attend people. The owner for this poor restaurant can check the waitress or give a courses for customer servive. Mesiento mal por ella por que no le dieron educación parecía una mujer de la calle con la forma que se expresaba por eso ese restaurante no tiene jente y debería el dueño mirar a que personas contrata porque yo podría poner una queja con el consumidor.por último es mesera y no se sabe el menú por favor si van a ese lugar deberían preguntarle al dueño cual es menú porque su empleada no lo sabe es una mujer alta morena, con un sobre peso que se sé maquilla como si trabajará en el circo o disculpe...
