A colleague took me here for the first time back when I worked in Hollywood. I didn't know what to expect, but knew the food was going to be great based off of tasting their chimicurri.
Going a little deeper with their chimichurri sauce, it was basically freaking amazing. I never remembered it to me pulverized like some restaurants, but you can still see a few of the leafy bits. My friend ordered 2 because he didn't want to share. Now I get why.
I've tried many things here. But one thing I was surprised on how delicious it was, were their burger.
Lalas Burger
I'm a burger snob. There's just nothing I love more than a good patty between bread. And when they ask you how you like your burger done, you know you are in for a good treat. It had good meat flavor, a beautiful char, but the best part was slathering the chimichurri sauce on. ALL over. Slow motion. Big bite. Finger-licking-napkin-faced- GOOD.
Argentina Sausage
I've never had this before, but I did enjoy this. Yes. Chimichurri met the sausage. It has a nice snap and well balanced with the salsa. I've also tried blood sausage before. Unique and actually quite good. As long as you can get passed the blood part.
I'll definitely be back soon because this place makes bad ass food. So if you are ever in town and want to eat here, take me.
