Current Crushyou ;)
everything i tried was very tasty and the meat was cooked just right and salty charred delicious! there's lots of friendly eye candy (thanks cute brazilian worker guy!) and they even carry diet guarana!
diet guarana!!!
chicken burrito = there was chicken in there?
churros = good
condiments = plentiful
price = $4 and change
i totally forgot that el pollo loco is damn tasty!
not sure why, but i was expecting white linen tablecloths and stuffy waiters, but instead i was greeted with a breezy indoor/outdoor patio with bright colors reminiscent of the favelas of rio. it really did feel like a little slice of oasis on the otherwise dingy venice blvd.
my friend and i both had sandwiches -chicken for her, steak for me - and it was both very tasty, served with extra "salsa". but i think the atmosphere is what will bring me back here again, and next time i'm getting a plate!

patio - lovely. until the noisy little rugrats were towed in by their parents. i think children under the age of 10 should not be allowed in "adult" restaurants. what is it about strollers and brunch that have to go together? anyways....
food - ok. my egg white omelet was way too salty
price - decent. $12 for salty omelet, fruit salad, and bread. no drink.
music - started on the patio sunday at 10am. sounded lovely.
service - prompt. but they seemed really eager to take away our plates. i hate when they're trying to snatch that plate from you just b/c you only have one bite of food left doesn't mean i'm done eating. nor does it mean i want you to check back every 3 min to see if i want my plate cleared!
ps - i'm not a grouchy hater, really ;P

anyways, i was craving some jajangmien in ktown so of course i turned to trusty old yelp.
service was super nice. and when i asked for jamjamyun (which they don't have), our waiter offered to split each order of noodles for us. after he took our order, he overheard my friend asking if the meat used was pork and when i told her that i didn't think it was, the waiter came over and said that pork was indeed used, but they can also make a version with beef. thanks dude! so we each got to try they jajangmyun (black bean noodles) and jam bong (spicier than usual, but still rich and hearty).
food was tasty, sides and waters were refilled without having to request it. there were ppl sitting at the other tables eating stuff that also looked so good, but alas, we didn't have the stomach capacity since it was only the two of us :(
the neighborhood is a bit shady so if you decide to park on the street, hopefully your bf or a male companion of some sort is with you....

i felt like i was at a sushi restaurant with that sheet of paper and the little pencils - cute!
i preferred the onion strings over the sweet potato fries.
wish they had a few more "pre selected" type burgers for indecisive types like me, but i love to choose my own adventure like this :)
smoke was a little blinding, so make sure you wear something you'll be washing right away afterwards...
i did enjoy their little yogurt thing they give you at the end... it kinda reminded me of a lychee flavor? and it's not the tart pinkberry-ish yogurt, which i despise, so yay!

now if only the enterprise at SFO airport were so simple.... (see my other yelp review for that one)
