★ the recipes
From the kitchen of family
Mole from Tlaxcala. Carnitas from the way they make it back home. Pico from the morning's tomatoes. Nothing was reverse-engineered from somebody else's menu.
Our Story
A family kitchen brought from Mexico to a corner of Burbank. Seven days a week, ever since.
how it started
From Mexico to Olive Avenue.
Born out of a love of fine food and good music, Los Amigos Bar & Grill has become the exclusive night spot in Burbank. After traveling from Mexico, we decided to make our way to sunny California — and bring our authentic music and food with us.
We opened the doors with one rule: serve the food we grew up on. Mole simmered for hours. Carnitas crisped at the edges. Tableside guacamole with a real molcajete. A salsa bar that earns its name. Margaritas that don't apologize for being strong.
On any given night you'll find regulars who've been coming since opening week, a karaoke crowd warming up at the bar, and a back room ready for a birthday, a quinceañera, or an impromptu dance floor.
Moments that made it
The recipes, the music, the nights.
★ the room
An old rancho, made ours
Wood tables. Talavera tile. A bar long enough for the regulars and a patio for the rest. The lights stay low, the music stays loud.
★ the nights
Karaoke, Fridays & Saturdays
Fridays and Saturdays, 9:30pm—1:30am — pick a song, tip the bartender, sing it like you mean it. The crowd will sing along.
★ the regulars
Most of you, by now
First date. Tenth anniversary. Friday after a long week. Quinceañera. Wake. We've seen all of it. The door's open.
What we stand by
01
Make it for the family first.
If we wouldn't serve it at our own table on a Sunday afternoon, we don't put it on the plate.
02
Loud is fine. Welcoming is mandatory.
Live music, karaoke, kids' birthdays, work happy hours — every table gets the same hello.
03
Authentic doesn't mean stuck.
Family recipes stay family recipes. The bar program, the patio, the music — those keep evolving with the neighborhood.
04
Treat regulars like family. New folks too.
If it's your first time in, ask for a margarita recommendation. If it's your thousandth, your booth is probably already saved.
"Para dejar el pellejo, lo mismo es hoy que mañana."
— "Today's as good as tomorrow for living it up."
— dicho de la casa
Mi casa es su casa.
The patio's open. The grill's hot. The margaritas are cold. Come see what we've been up to all these years — and soon, a second home in Santa Clarita.
