I’ve come for the tacos of Machete! Take 2 - after a great experience at the Woodland Hills location we eagerly headed to Hollywood to find our expectations met. This is a smaller, busier space than the Woodland Hills spot…you can pay to valet park in their lot, but beware the price seems to go up every 15 minutes. We were greeted by friendly staff and seated at a table…first a little too close to the always open garage door style entry to the patio (it was a cold night), and then at a booth further away. (Try to set in the dining area on the other side of the bar if outside temperatures bother you.) The chips and salsa once again didn’t disappoint in terms of taste. I had tasted all of the vegetarian tacos on my visit to the other locale so I went for the Jackfruit burrito this time around. It was on the spicy side, but not too spicy…just heartily spicy…it was a generous size and really filled me up. (Also it’s normally vegan but I eat dairy so I had them add cheese which was quite tasty. We also had our server’s recommendation of the Fortaleza Tequila chilled and neat. (I’d asked for his favorite non $25 sipping tequila.) It was smooth and delicious and up there with any other tequila my more experienced tequila drinking wife has had. We love the vegetarian meals we can get at Trejo’s and this will remain on our list of crave worthy foods. (And I’m not just saying that to appease the wrath of Machete.)

Like walking into a party bartender was really cool and greeted me places epic scenic, and immediately we made like friends. I was greeted with the menu, a smile and I was ready to rock ‘n’ roll, but I had to order the steak out a pole with regular rice I continue to enjoy the music and take everything in this place is a lot of fun but you wanna enjoy yourself even without the alcohol. This is the place you’re gonna come to I love it. I can tell the people that work here really enjoy it and everybody’s having a great time!! Gonna tell you right now the steak bowl is amazing. I added some of the Trejo hot sauce and I threw on some sour cream and I know a lot of people would be asking why would you eat something up just to cool it down? Well, I’m a complicated person but when it comes to simply enjoying great food I picked the right place today. I can’t believe how much fun I’m having Jeremy the bartender is great. The rest of the staff is a lot of fun too… The food won’t be the only reason you’ll be coming here!!!

I was excited to go to this place. The place was empty and the host saw us waiting and ignored us. He decided to clean a table right behind us. He saw us again and walked away. I felt discriminated. Finally he comes and ask us where we like to be sitting at. I told them patio. He sat us in the very in corner of the restaurant hidden from everything. We ordered the Fresno chili drink they brought my drink after 15 minutes. Then they brought my friend's drink 40 minutes later. I told the hose I was disappointed of their service. She Shrugged her shoulders and only said I'm sorry with a smirk in her face. It took me 10 minutes to get somebody to get our order after our drinks were served 40 minutes later. Our tacos came out cold. I can only see say the only good thing about the food was the avocado and chips. Mr Trujillo you need to revise the service here and the food I was very disappointed of the service and food. I mentioned it to our server how they can compensate us for waiting so long to get our food mind you there was nobody in the restaurant besides a total of 15 people. Nobody gave us credit or apologize for their awful service. All I have to say I will not come back again and let the bad taste on the food and service. As for the drink named after Fresno chili I strongly suggest you remove it off your menu

Every time we go to Hollywood we make a trip to Trejo's Cantina. The food is delicious, and the drinks are delightful! Each of the last few times we've gone leaves us hungry for more here in Chicago. Our server, Luisa, is fantastic. She is very service oriented, and always makes us feel special. When we were there last week, she remembered us from our trip in August. On the food side I highly recommend the Cauliflower Street Taco (made with pickled cauliflower, onions, and the most amazing Avocado Cream sauce), and the Fish Street Taco. In reality, you can't go wrong with any of the Street Tacos, those are just my favorite. On the cocktail side I highly recommend the Cucumber & Cilantro Margarita (made with fresh muddled cucumber, fresh cilantro, and fresh lime juice), as well as the Drink Special which was called El Machete (gin, cucumber, and lime). The drink specials change, but if it's available you should try it. If you're in town with a bit of time in Hollywood, you should most definitely make a visit!

Location: Hidden, Parking:Where you can find it, Service: Pretty good. Price for food received: Decent for location. Overall: I went to Trejo's not long after it first opened a few years back. The food was not bad then, and the restaurant was smaller. Now expanded, It still was very simple yet open inside. The host did check on us, refreshed our drinks without asking, and was very courteous. The meal was decent, the pork seemed a bit dry, and I could have used salt and pepper, which are not on the tables. Still, the meal was filling and worth the price. Now, parking is another issue. I did not wish to drop a chunk for Valet in the front. If you are lucky, there are cheap 2hr Parking meters off ivar. I would go back if in the area. So I give this location 3.8 stars...

I had the pleasure of visiting Trejo's Mexican Restaurant, and I'm absolutely thrilled! The cuisine is simply incredible - each dish is prepared with attention to detail and is authentically Mexican. The flavors are simply stunning and truly made my taste buds dance.In addition to the fantastic food, the service was excellent. The staff was friendly, attentive, and very knowledgeable about the various dishes on the menu. The atmosphere in the restaurant is inviting and cozy, and I immediately felt at ease. Whether alone, with friends, or family, Trejo's offers an experience that one must simply experience.I highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely be returning to enjoy more of their delicious dishes! Thank you, Trejo's, for an unforgettable culinary experience!
