This place deserve five stars because the food is so great and delicious!... but most people (employees) are very nice ?...The reason I'm giving this place only four stars today is because a lady behind the counter (short and skinny) pulled a face on me while I was telling her what I wanted... what her name?... I don't know but I'm gonna find out... employees like this one shouldn't be working in this kind of business... this lady today showed the model of how an employee of a restaurant or business where the employee interacts with the customer is reprehensible... the attitude of this lady is extremely reprehensible!!!... the problem here is that in these cases just being an only one employee with this attitude is smearing the rest of the employees!!!!
The chorizo they gave was was so squished. I don't prefer buying her go to the one in santa monica. The one that attended me there was Zoyla.
Super good. All items have there own unique flavor of spice!! It's also a market for veggies and meat. Was unaware. I'm definitely going to be frequent customer. All the salsa tasted amazing. Red is smokey, green fresh and savory, chips salsa lots of texture and freshness.You won't be disappointed. Felt like I was eating in Mexico.
This was my second time at La Flama. Loved the food the first time so I had to go back. I was super impressed with the mole chicken plate. The chicken was soft, not rubbery at all. I personally think that if you can cook chicken excellently, you have a pretty good grasp of cooking most meats.Also, they accept CalFresh/EBT for groceries and the prepared entrees. Huge bonus for anyone who has some extra CalFresh dollars to spare!
My wife had ordered a special items and they didn't get it right. They did not even contact my wife regarding this. They also tried to over charge her. They also didn't even say they were sorry and try to contact the manager. This order was for a family gathering. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS place to any. ?????
Beware, we bought tamales de raja and mole and as I was cutting a piece I noticed a long hair. Unfortunately my partner had already ate one. I called to notify the store and the woman on the phone stated that I would get a refund back however I felt as I was being accused of faking this hair thing. A few minutes later I got a call back from la flama, requesting me to take the tamales back for proof. Lady I have pictures and no need to lie. I’m also in Hollywood which for me it’s out of the way to drive back to Culver City. So make sure you guys check your food ?
Excellent place to buy authentic Mexican products. Their breakfast is delicious and more than enough for one person. I recommend you the tacos al vapor (one per person) and the aguas frescas. The staff is friendly too.
Good food. Quick service
Delicious food and kind and friendly staff.
