With its prime location on Sunset just west of La Brea, El Compadre is a fun neighborhood place to grab a burrito, enchiladas, or some chips and guacamole with friends, family or a date. Part of the place’s appeal is the old Mexican atmosphere, complete with red vinyl, dark wood and the mariachi band that plays nightly at 8 p.m. Plus, the bar is well-stocked, and the margaritas are everything they’re touted to be. Expect a 20-minute wait if it’s busy, or go for the slightly cramped bar seating.
