Fifty years of food, fire, and atmosphere
A look inside El Compadre — from the Flaming Margarita to the kitchen, the bar, and the room that started it all in 1975.

The bar at El Compadre
Barrels overhead, tequila everywhere, and a bartender who knows your order. The bar has been the heart of the room since 1975.
The room on Sunset Boulevard
Wrought iron, amber light, and red neon — the Hollywood dining room looks tonight exactly as it did the night it opened.
