"A Mexican clubstaurant whose original Los Angeles location on West Third Street opened in 2015 and expanded to Houston, Scottsdale and Las Vegas has closed as of February 24. Forbes reports it will reopen in about a year at 8151 Melrose Avenue in the space that formerly housed Red O by Rick Bayless (which closed in 2018 and has been unoccupied since). The brand is also opening another outlet in Miami later this year." - Matthew Kang
"Toca Madera is a âmodern Mexican steakhouseâ on W. 3rd Street thatâs packed to the gills every night with people who clearly love hanging plants and food that tastes like nothingâbecause thatâs all youâll find here. Weâre at peace eating lackluster food at clubstaurants (we expect it, actually) but Toca Madera doesnât have any other fun elements in play to distract you from the fact that you just spent $16 on one scoop of sour guacamole or $22 on an al pastor taco with a tortilla that crumbles when you pick it up. If you want to meet someone for a quick margarita at the bar, this place will suffice. Otherwise, thereâs no reason to come here." - brant cox, sylvio martins, nikko duren
"If your bridal party opts for dinner at Toca Madera, it likely wonât be the only one â and for good reason. Itâs so beautiful that the decor has been featured in Architectural Digest, and a weekend night will delight your group with fire dancers and a live DJ, plus, the lineup of Mexican dishes is delicious. The best part, however, is the drinks âfor a personal smokeshow, try the Papasito. Just make sure to make a reservation well in advance." - Jamie Phillis
"Positioned between the Aria and the Shops at Crystals, newly opened Toca Madera is mentioned as another upscale steakhouse in the City Center area." - Janna Karel
"The Madera Groupâs flagship upscale eatery serves as the brandâs high-end anchor nearby, offering an upscale dining alternative and acting as a short walking-distance complement to the mallâs incoming casual, plant-forward concepts." - Crystal Coser
