El Floridita in Los Angeles

Copeland has a diverse menu for anyone that you really go to at any time of day. A step up fro a diner. I had the huevos rancheros. It was very good. Service got a little slow towards the end, but in their defense it was a busy lunch hour.

Always the best chicken

Went on a Monday night, had reservations for 9:15pm. They had an amazing live band playing. Great salsa dancers and awesome food. By 9:30pm it was packed. Would definitely come visit again...

The food is excellent. Very quiet at lunch time. It is mostly a nightclub that gets busy in the evening. Live music and dancing.

Really good food with a home feel service. As a native of Cuba this was really good and reminiscent of food in Vedado, Habana, Cuba. Throughly enjoyed it.

I've been looking for authentic Cuban food here in LA for the past 10 years. Being from South Florida, this restaurant is the perfect fit, and the food is awesome! It's the only Cuban restaurant I'll order from.

DO ME A FAVORE AND DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AS WELL AN DO NOT GO IN HERE Just got back from there as I wanted to have a nice social dance.. Horrible place to dance, dance floor large as a single bedroom, waiters pushing out of the way every 2 minutes OVERPRICED AF (obviously not worth it) If you were thinking to go there for having a nice social dance you picked up the wrong place.

It's beautiful Restaurant

If you're going for the salsa dancing... The music is awesome, atmosphere and staff friendly. I traveled to LA specifically to try out the Latin and salsa scene.And some of the leads are welcoming towards new follows (obviously) haha.But, the floor is so small and they don't limit the amount of people. You can't dance it's so crowded.You can't even stand and wait for the floor, it's so cramped you can't even do that.I think it's a waste of a cover charge.For My date and I, I paid 30 to get in.But we couldn't even dance. And the tables crowd onto the floor. So if you do manage to squeeze onto the floor... you will probably be running into, and trying not to get shoved into a metal chair the whole time. It would have been worth it, if there was even enough space to walk in or out.

Amazing... so much fun, and live music

Tonight was fantastic. This place came highly recommended and it did not disappoint. The food was delicious and definitely authentic. The atmosphere was buzzing with excitement as we waited for the band. The dance floor stays full of dancers of all levels. The band playing tonight was also on fire signing and performing many classic salsa songs. Everytime I visit LA I will come back to spot for sure.

Awesome cuban restaurant!!! Birthday celebration was a success!! Live band music and dj were great.. Delicious food...our waiter very attentive and friendly... we will definitely return...

Very good food the service was excellent

El Floridita is a well known venue for Latin Dancing to live music in a small intimate setting. Their cuban food is delicious.Night Time parking on busy nights is valet only, $12 as of the time of this review. I usually find street parking two to three blocks away. They serve great drinks and have a self service water cooler.

The best Cuban Restaurant in town I always get the black bean and rice live Spanish music great attitude from the staff friendly crowd

What an awesome place. Small, floors werent very clean, but customer service and ambience were Awesome!! Reservations are a must, parking is $12 bucks. Plates ranges from $35 and up due to live music there is a subcharge and tip at the end it is added to your total amount to pay.

Puerto Rican Wednesdays!!!!!!

This is probably spot for salsa dancing in Los Angeles. They constantly have incredible live bands that play all night long. It is a small intimate restaurant/club that plays well to the atmosphere and vibes they provide.I have only eaten here once and everything was delicious I just feel that it's quite pricey. I am basing my review more so on the salsa club more so than the food

I one of the best club in Hollywood ,my second house to relax,I love it ,every Monday

Food was great! Service was fantastic! Little on the pricey side, but well worth it! I went for lunch and the amount of food was incredible! Everyone was so attentive even the owner. I would recommend this place for great Cuban food! I felt like I was in my Cuban grandmothers house for Sunday dinner! I will be back for Salsa dancing!

Amazing Cuban food, and the live music is so unique to find in LA. Would highly recommend.

Super great service...delicious Food, Bar...live Awesome music too...my children took me there to celebrate my birthday!!!

Good music Good food Good times! So much fun and crowd... but needs to figure out bigger dance floor cause the crowd will take over. Overall its great spot.

Friendly staff who take good care of you and are always aware of dietary requirements. Good food and afternoon tea is outstanding. Recommend this to go with family or even a group of friends.

This place came highly recommended and it did not disappoint. The food was delicious and definitely authentic.

Awesome entertainment and love the food, this is a go to spot for sure! Love it love it love it !!!!!! I would so recommend and the fact that it’s actually pretty cheap is awesome! Did I mention that I got diarrhea 😂😂❤️ But other then the VIOLENT VOMITING AND DIARRHEA I’ll be back soon fo sho! Mmmmm yummy yummy yummy 🤤 LOLLL ROFL

Authentic Cuban food and good service. It was a bit quiet the night we went.

Went here for the new years party it was an amazing experience!

Live Music. CUBAN food. You will keep coming back

One if not the best steak I've ever had

The band is awesome and the food is great. Drink prices are a little steep. Cover charge is $10. The floor gets very packed.

Very authentic and fun atmosphere to learn salsa and the other Latin dancing. The only reason it’s getting four stars and not three is because of the music and the dancing. Apart from that the food was not worth it. Save your self from the bland and basic plates they serve. They can definitely improve in the food department.Eat and drink before arriving, and just enjoy some Latin vibes on the floor.

Best cuban food in Hollywood. Ropa Vieja is good there.

When I need good music, delicious food and a fabulous ambiance, Floridita is the number 1 place to go to. I feel at home. The best customer service.

Great night, save for the rude & dismissive guy at the door. Not sure if he was the owner or just working there but made our first impression of the place very unpleasant.

The best vibe for Cuban salsa and food I have found, a fun place to just “get lost” in another place for a bit!

Excellent, exquisite, authentic, a puerto rican hidden in plain sight

One of the worst Cuban restaurants in the Los Angeles County! Both chicken and pork dishes ordered were extremely dry and flavourless. The black beans lacked flavour. The pollo croquettes tasted like yucca flour mixed in with a few hair-strand of chicken creating a pile of mush. The oil used to fry the chicken croquettes were old oil which causes a premature dark brown..not golden brown.The entire restaurant and restrooms can utilize a major facelift. The 20 year old carpet looks disgusting and the tables can be a bit larger. Of course, they try to squeeze in as many people for the free salsa lessons. These free salsa lessons are the cause for such high food prices...easily $5.00 more per appetizer/entree than the average Cuban restaurant.

BEST CUBAN IN LOS ANGELES!!!! Best pork I've had in my LIFE!! Beautiful people and amazing energy in this place!!! Drinks are pricey but worth it! Best Cadillac margaritas I've ever had!! Plus it was my moms birthday and thay sang and made it super special for her. Please visit and enjoy.

Great place to dance Salsa. Heads up you need to make reservations in advance.

Is always fun I love el floridita and all the staff

Great place , great food , lovely people, amazing music and the dancing....OMG!!!!

Excellent food, service and wine parings. This is not an inexpensive place and definitely should go form special occasions.

Great live band. We had a mixed plate starter for two. It was suburb. Gets very busy on Salsa nights, but that's what we were there for!

Loved the music. Was a taste of home. Drinks were nice, especially for a dance spot.

It's amaizing !

Great environment, one of the best services, staff are just amazing. Delicious food, always a good time.

The food is good -- and the music is GREAT!!

I LOVE this place. If you want to hear real salsa music this is the place to go! The live band they had on Feb. 3 was great! Our night started with a reservation at 7. It did take a little while for us to have someone stop by for drinks but service got better. We enjoyed the pitcher of mango mojitos and the food was GREAT! Everything was tender and juicy. The place is small but I feel that it adds to the character of the place. Everyone was super friendly and it seemed like we were at a big family reunion. I can't wait to visit again!

It's the bomb 💣💥 I'm definitely going back again. Next time for the food, music and dance. This last time I just went for the dance and music, and it was lovely, energetic and fun!
