Worthy Picks

Reseda Boulevard Strip
High-energy Día de los Muertos–themed Mexican restaurant with a dedicated happy hour menu and big-room party atmosphere. The draw is the bar program—mezcal flights, margaritas, and shareable platters meant for loud, social evenings.
Must-Try Dishes: Quesa Birria Tacos, Aguachiles, Mezcal Flight
What makes it special: Festive mezcal-and-margarita happy hour with late-night energy.
$$ Devonshire Street Strip
Latinx-owned sushi spot doing a fun Mexican-Japanese crossover, and one of the more offbeat happy hour stops in the area. Rolls skew saucy and punchy, with aguachile and ceviche notes showing up alongside classic nigiri.
Must-Try Dishes: Hawaiian Hurricane Roll, Lobster Roll, Spicy Tuna Hand Roll
What makes it special: Latin-fusion roll program that’s sauce-forward and unapologetically fun.
