"La Cabaña is a Westside landmark that dates back to 1963. It’s not the most inventive food in town, but you’re not at this Venice spot for a thoughtful take on the sope. You’re here for the shredded beef quesadilla and the culinary monstrosity that goes by “El Verde Burrito” (a coop’s-worth of chicken, beans, lettuce, avocado, and tomato, all topped with salsa verde and cheese). They have a fantastic back patio, margarita carafes, and sometimes, a mariachi band plays on the roof." - brant cox, garrett snyder, arden shore
