El Carmen
8138 W Third St
Los Angeles, CA 90048
Phone: (323) 852-1552
Disclaimer: I did not know that El Carmen and Jones (July Featured Jukebox) were owned by the same person. I love both places and they have excellent Jukeboxes. There’s some overlap in tunes, but in a good way.
El Carmen has been in business since 1927 and for the past 10 years it’s been located on 3rd Street. A rare feat for this town. They offer over 450 different brands of tequila; prices range from $7 to $300 a pour. The beautiful Blanca was working behind the bar with Mike. Both of them have been working for the institution for several years and they know their shit.
*Valet Parking
*Tacos are great
*Crazy old-school paintings of Mexican Wrestlers hang from the ceiling
*Limited seating, so get there early
*Non-Hollywood Crowd
Jukebox: $5 dollars for 18 selections (Sly And The Family Stone, Van Halen, Stones, Hendrix, Sex Pistols and Clash and many others)
