El Cholo - The Original

Mexican restaurant · Harvard Heights

"One of LA’s oldest Mexican restaurants turned 100 in 2023 and maintains a historic presence on Western Avenue just north of Pico. But there are six bustling SoCal locations serving margaritas, combination platters, and El Cholo’s signature green corn tamales." - Eater Staff
