El Compadre Restaurant

We specialize in showcasing "The fine foods of Mexico". We serve family recipes handed down over generations using select cuts of meats, and choice seafood alongside season fresh vegetables. Our chefs prepare our dishes to render "traditional tastes, with fresh flavors" in every bite. We have a dedicated full bar area serving mixed cocktails, imported and domestic beers and our legendary and famous "Flaming Margarita". Coupled with live nightly music from a trio singing Mexican classics and with a dimly lit, sultry lighting; our romantic ambiance is unmatched.
Three locations to serve you, El Compadre Restaurant Echo Park is 7 miles east of Hollywood located in the hip area of Echo Park and our newest addition opened in 2014 in the heart of Downtown Los Angeles across Staples Center and Convention Center. Today, El Compadre Restaurant is still family owned and operated.
