Just what I needed on my day off

By steven |

Great place a meal and drink. Service was excellent, thank you Max. Music was just right, great play list. Food and drinks were on point. I’ll be back for sure.

Terrible service and cold food

By Joel R |

Cold food. Sent it back. Came back one minute later cold. They didn’t even try to hear it up. Appetizers and main meal came out at same time. Server had 6 top and could care less about taking care of us. Told me they deducted a meal for our trouble and got the check and no meal was deducted. Manager stopped by even though server told him what was going on twice. Will NEVER go back!!!

Stopped by today and had a really lovely lunch. The food and drinks were delicious and hit the spot. Our server Max made great suggestions, was attentive, providing impeccable service. We appreciated the thoughtful details of the restaurant and the presentation of the meal.

Overpriced poor quality. Not worth it

By troymabe1369 |

1- small margaritas that at $20 not even really. Just fake juice. Had the fajitas only like 6 small pieces of meat rest was peppers and onion.

Cheers to the Team

We came here to celebrate our friend’s birthday and we had a complaint. The drinks weren’t filled fully, but then Armando, the manager showed up and took care of us. Armando went above and beyond by offering to our birthday friend a Cadillac Margarita complementarily Cheers to Armando and Alma restaurant’s team

Excellent Mexican food

By Andrea60 |

My family and I were on an all day tour of Los Angeles when we were told we only had an hour to grab lunch at the Farmers Market. We tried to get in a couple of places but most of the restaurants had a wait. We walked up toe Alma’s and they were about to seat us upstairs which was wonderful since it was 100 degrees outside. Our server was Roberto. What a nice man. We explained how we only had 40 minutes to order, eat and pay. He assured us he could handle the assignment, and he did. There were two menus on the table, the regular menu and a brunch menu. My daughter and I ordered off the brunch menu, waffles and French toast. I am only sorry we didn’t take pictures because the dishes were beautifully arranged when they came to the table. And boy were they delicious. Other family members ordered tacos, Huevos Con Chorizo, and Carnitas. Everything was wonderful. I have to say my youngest (and picky-east) fell in love with the refried beans. She said they were so creamy. I only wish we lived closer so that we could come back weekly.

expensive and tasty

By Desiree S K |

authentic and good quality high end mexican. Just a bit pricey. The atmosphere at the Grove is nice though.

Amazing lunch !

By Mobile44906383594 |

Came here after a hike up the Hollywood sign and the frozen margarita was JUST WHAT WE NEEDED! Food was great, our server, Max, was so attentive and made our experience even better. Sat by the waterfall at the grove , was a lovely way to spend lunch in LA.

Delicious

By Lisa B |

Pass on this

By AlanSemsar |

Food was all cold very bland and they have so many up charges. The only good thing was the salsa. Over priced and the service was horrible too No wonder the restaurant was empty

Loved everything.

By Aurora A |

The service was amazing and so was the food. Best mexican place to eat at The Grove. Definitely I am coming back again.

Delicious food in a beautiful setting

By carlym757 |

Alma was a beautiful venue with great service and delicious food. A must when visiting the grove or staying in Hollywood.

Great dining experience

By James R |

Service by Bri and Armando was great. Big shout-out to them for the recommendations and conversation. Great patio, good view of the fountains. Enchiladas are 🫠 so good. Love the salsa. Honestly, just the chips and salsa taste and flavor were good enough to be a meal

Authentic Mexican.

By Alvaro A |

If you are looking for authentic Mexican food. Flavor that will make you look around to say Wow!!!! Service that is only seen is luxury hotels. Music that makes you feel like home. The variety of drinks to fulfill all backgrounds. The decor of beautiful Mexico. Then this is it. You don’t need to look more. I love this restaurant and it’s other chains.

Delicious food and fast service.

By Emily S |

Stopped here for dinner after a day of exploration. The food was absolutely delicious (especially the enmoladas, enchiladas, guacamole, and churros) and the drinks were good as well. The service was fast and the waitstaff were personable. The prices are on the higher end, but given the location it is to be expected especially since the quality of food is decently high.

Amazing food and service!

By Marit E |

Amazing food + drinks and the best service from Max !! Thank you for making our visit at the Gove extraordinary 🙏 My daughters were very happy!

Amazing food, atmosphere and service

By Nazeli K |

We came for my grandma’s birthday and are so happy to have to have chosen this restaurant! Max our server was so kind, and had the best energy! He was helpful with our food decisions and at the end brought us an amazing cake for my grandma and sang so wonderfully! Our seating was great and the weather was perfect. A perfect day at the grove with my family!

Nice place!

Great food and amazing staff! Place is nicely decorated and well maintained. Good spot to eat with friends.

Best Fajitas ever!

By CWR01 |

Dined here tonight on a business trip while out running errands. Service was great. Outdoor covid-resistant dining. And wow were the chicken fajitas great! Fresh tender tortillas. Flavorful and fresh fillings without a hint of sogginess. Outstanding.

Nice place to have a lunch, but average overall

By jmLondon845 |

Very buzzy restaurant, but for a lunch it's perfect, especially if you are craving for Mexican food like we were. The menu is great and you can find all the usual Mexican dishes. The service is great. The place is very noisy but this is Mexico! We enjoyed the lunch anyway.

Heads up - check menu prices

By Trail787918 |

This is simply a heads up for people stopping in for a coffee so that you don’t make the same mistake I did. I stopped into Alma at the Grove with my daughter for a double espresso, standing at the bar. I didn’t check the menu, and after the two coffees, the bill for two double espressos was $34.17. It’s more than i could ever imagine for 2 coffees, and I travel globally and live overseas. Just be careful if you go there, and check the prices before you commit.

IMMEDIATELY OUR FAVORITE

By kwaaak |

As Los Angeles residents for decades, my wife and I have experienced a variety of Mexican restaurants. Some become favorites, others peak and fade. We have been deprived of top-notch Mexican food UNTIL The other day strolling through The Grove we discovered Alma. We'll be returning to Alma for the next decade, at least. Beyond a beautiful setting and a very competent and attentive waitstaff, the food was magnificent. We had beef and pork tacos, accompanied by rice and beans. Delicious. Alma has large wine, beer and dessert list also. We'll be back!

Amazing service

By Alexander S |

Service was amazing. Max went out of his way to make us feel at home. Thanks for everything max. Great food, amazing people!

Looks lovely but Food is overpriced and tasteless

By DWNBRHM |

Lovely space , wonderful views and service was keen! However the food was pretty tasteless and very expensive
