    House Specialty: Traditional Mexican Michelada where your beer's topped with a POPSICLE blended with tomato juice, fresh-squeezed lime, chilis & secret spices. Dunk it, drop it, or just eat at will. Read more

    The Michelada pops are my favorite & I love Micheladas. I get the traditional w/o the salt rim as I find the pop plenty salty & perfect. The hen of the woods veg taco is my fave even though I eat meat

    No frills kind of place. If you are from NYC, they are similar to Calexico but with a cool LA sleek vibe. Order from the bar and hang on the communal tables. GREAT employees! Gluten free options!!!

    Silver Lake’s “urban taco fabricators” pride themselves on tacos and micheladas in a two-room space with plenty of brick, wood and communal seating. Read more

    Owner Summer Stearns came up with the concept for Diablo’s michelada, which lets you mix and match DiabloPops with either draft or bottled beer. Read more

    The grilled chicken tacos with just onions and cilantro (especially made for me) were SOoooooo good-I would go back just for that! The fried chicken side was the bomb.

    A great alternative to the coffee shop when you are tired of working from home. Bring your mobile office & hook up to their free WiFi - grab a beer and some tacos for some serious work fuel!

    This place kills the Hard Shell game - usually not the move but great here. The Bison one was amazing. Also very cheap drinks

    Just like I had hoped, the food had improved! The menu changes on a weekly basis so check back. The Michelada pops could be slightly slushier and the lighting needs to be a lot dimmer. Great start!

    Fyi: CAUTION with the bison taco's - chili bison taco's will cause excessive flatus volume in the stomach. (Ate 4 and had an excessive discomfort until I had a carbonated beverage)

    Cute place. The vibe feels like the taco version of wurstkuche in silver lake. Beer selection pretty good, except for that hipster pbr on tap?! Prepared the pay, tacos tho delicious, they're small.

    Fiesta Latina is an agave Mexican beer, is very refreshing and will captivate your palate, try it at: El Diablo

    The michelada pops with beer are nice and cold. Tried it with a Victoria the 1st round. Taste a lot better with a Modelo.

    Coca cola asada taco and the street corn with a $1 PBR is perfect on a weeknight.

    Beer selection is great. Tacos are gourmet and very eclectic. Food is on the expensive side but come here for a foodventure. It's a Mexican gastropub in Silverlake.

    Tacos are great (my favorite is the bison chili), but the breakfast burrito—only available on weekends— is pretty forgettable

    Good variety of food, and delicious when it finally arrives, also beers on tap are a good selection!

    As a veggie, the hen-of-the-woods taco and elote are already my craveable "usual". Also can't beat golden road beers!

    Buttermilk fried chicken is the bomb. The chicken is fried in batches so come before the rush.

    The corn is great. The best taco is the pork belly with plantains and peanuts.

    Gotta order the lemon lime michelada popsicle with any of the beers. The tomato popsicle is pretty damn good also!

    Too expensive! Given that this place is in the heart of silverlake where you can get a great cheap taco at every corner, this place is super over priced given the quality of food you actually get.

    Underwhelmed by the food. Beer is cold. TV for the game without sound... No music? Kinda can't decide if its a restaurant or a bar.... My suggestions would be to dim the lights and get a juke box.

    45min for tacos is not worth it & portions are small & pricey. Sangria was no bueno! Better off going to Malo down the street.
