Absolutely devoured my taco Tuesday selection. And I gotta say the variety is welcome. From short rib tacos with kimchi, bbq carnitas to the wood smoked brisket tacos, I was pleasantly impressed with the options. I didn’t partake in the margaritas but our friends ordered them and gave them a positive review. Reasonable prices for flavors that tempt you want to order more beyond your stomach’s capacity.
Service was good, food was great and the environment was a whole vibe. The churros were the best, the extra crispy wings were amazing. Happy hour is the best
I came here before an event that was hosted upstairs. The bartender was extremely nice and her service was spot on. The brisket tacos I ordered were amazing. I probably had 6 tacos that night and I've been craving them since. I'll have to go back again to get my fix.
Great place for quick bites & drinks!! Excellent Tacos & very tasty Jalapeno margerita! Wow, probably the best I've had in the valley area!!
I've been coming here for Taco Tuesday since early on and each week the crowds are bigger & bigger. The wait staff work their butts off (like everywhere else, they're needing more staff), but they manage to keep folks happy. The tacos are delicious AND a bargain, margaritas and shots as well. The owner/manager works as hard as everyone else and as far as I can tell, Banditos is a huge success. I hope they have a great, long run here in Studio City.
Got the 5 taco sampler. Fish, shrimp, Crispy chicken, and chipotle chicken were show stoppers. Tacos were amazing, service was very friendly, food took a while to come out is the only room for improvement but also everything tasted fresh so product made up for the wait for sure. Highly recommend!
Insanely delicious tacos. Perhaps the best tacos I’ve ever eaten. I got the mix and match 5 tacos and every one of them was interesting and incredibly inspired and flavorful. The meat was spiced perfectly and the salsa had just the right balance between spicy and delicious. The tortillas were sturdy and didn’t fall apart and they were also soft fresh and not at all dry.The bartender/server was incredibly friendly and quite helpful and attentive. The service was really fast I was in and out in under 15 minutes which is crazy considering how good and visually pleasing the food was.I will definitely be coming back here just for the food alone. The drinks looked fantastic as well. The interior was tasteful and clean. Great location in studio city and the food came out fast as well.They had a fully stocked and clean gorgeous bathroom with a cool pattern of tiles on the walls that made it look as though I was in a German expressionist painting.I like the balance of bar to restaurant and the fact they were open at ten though I believe they closed at 1030.
I really wanted to love it here but the service was horrendous and the tacos were just okay. In SoCal, the taco scene is sooo amazing and I just felt that these fe short a bit, they weren’t that flavorful unfortunately. And when we got there it took over 20 minutes for anyone to even saw hi or greet us. After that, we didn’t get our drinks until 20 minutes after we got our food. And then it took someone 45 minutes to close us out. They were a kind staff but crazy understaffed and seemed a bit disorganized. Wanted to love this place but was disappointed for sure ?
The restaurant is clean and the service staff is friendly. The menu really doesn't offer anything unique and the servings are small for the price.
Delicious tacos, smoked brisket quesadilla and good authentic guacamole ?Oh and good margaritas
