@eater

"LA’s beloved Mexican restaurant El Cholo has had this standalone Downtown restaurant for years, just across from L.A. Live and Crypto.com. Expect heaping plates of chicken fajitas, blue corn tamales, and other combination plates that work great before games or concerts. Also great for chips, guac, and a margarita before heading to the arena." - Matthew Kang
