Yes, I've been there. It's very good! My wife likes their freshly made churros and seafood soup.

Try Amir's Falafel on Ventura Blvd. in Studio City. Their falafel pita sandwich made a believer out of my carnivorous self.

Jonathan Gold, you are so misguided! Take it from a Los Angeles Chicano, there is no more decent Mexican food in East LA. For authentic Mexican food, you need to go to Southeast LA--Huntington Park, Paramount, Southgate, Bell, Lynwood...even Compton. These are the areas where the new immigrants have settled.

And El Tepeyac? Garbage!

Mr. Gold, you have a standing invitation to come to my house. I will show you what real, authentic Mexican food tastes like.
