The 17 Most Fun Dinner Spots In LA - Los Angeles - The Infatuation
"Dinner at MXO is the closest you can get to eating at a high-end resort in Mexico without crossing the border. That’s because this clubby Mexican steakhouse on La Cienega from the chef behind Ka’teen offers similar elements: women in Rococo Sand dresses, a bumping bar area with flashy agave cocktails, and a dining room that looks like a millionaire’s dude ranch, complete with patio fire pits. The mesquite-grilled meats here are solid, but MXO works best for a boozy, snacky night out with friends. Start with the impressive (free) chips and salsa spread, a round of michelada oyster shooters, and some sweet potato taquitos. Just be prepared to spend: MXO can feel like a vacation, but it can cost as much as one, too." - brant cox, sylvio martins, cathy park
