Best

This is definitely a cool spot to hang with friends on a Friday night. The crowd is mixed and young and the drinks are plenty strong. Last time I was there a bachellorette party w...

Not for big parties 4/25/2006

Senor Fred's is not accomodating to big parties. They only have 1 booth that accomodates 12 people. The service staff is not willing to put tables together. And forget sitting outside!! They also have a 1 hour time limit for sitting outside. more

Great Place for a Casual Night 4/9/2006

I went with a friend for dinner on Saturday evening and then stayed to meet others and have drinks later in the night. We sat at the bar and had a great time talking with the bartenders and manager, who were all very friendly and fun. Make sure you check out the late night happy hour - this weekend Mexican beers were $3 after 11! We will definitely go back... Pros: Friendly staff, Food and bar menus, Clean Cons: Music not memorable more

Fred Friday's in Full Effect 1/16/2006

Awesome time. Every time. Best bartenders in the valley, hands down. Brian and Noe serve up the best (strong) drinks time after time. Can't go wrong with endless chips and salsa that's so hot it'll leave you wanting one of Noe's excellent micheladas. Although we try to find new Friday after work hangouts, we always seem to end up back at Fred's. Fun time. Not one complaint. If you ever end up drinking a little more than planned, Brian always has the H20 gun on quick draw. It's not a Fred's Friday without Brian's Jager-bombs! We'll be coming back every Friday that we can as long as Brian and Noe are behind the bar!! more

the female barstaff 9/24/2005

I live locally and have eaten here on several occassions, every time Ive been seated promptly, the hostess are great, The waiters were busy so I either went to the bar or I was sitting close to it and waited a LONG time for service at a dirty bar full of glasses, and chips ,as the female bartenders talked to each other ignoring everyone waiting. But the atmospher for an after work drink is good, the food is bland, when you do get a drink they are small so you better order 2 at a time! Pros: atmospher, decor, local Cons: female bartenders, food more

pleasantly suprised 8/9/2004

Tried it on a weeknight, . Ask for an elevated booth off the bar and check out the bar scene. Dark atmosphere and cool crowd Waitress was great, both bussboys very cute and kept the chips and salsa refilled. Hard tacos were perfect, pork cooked in a banana leaf was meltingly tender. Guacamole was very good too. Only really bad item was the beans on the side. No Flavor and a poor texture . Not traditional Mexican fare, a bit of an upscale, mild take instead. For a mexican restaurant they have a pretty good wine list .Over all the food is a bit too bland for my tastes. I'd prefer a little more grease and chili, but I'm sure they are catering to a mostly white Sherman Oaks patronage. I'll be back. more

Frustrating Service 7/14/2004

I had a good experience my first time here but things have slid downhill recently. While the food is good (light on the sauces, no gloppy melted cheese all over) the service was pretty lame. It was a slow night--hardly packed yet once our waitress took our drink order she disappeared for a long time. When she did come back she was distracted and anxious to get back inside (we were on the patio.) We had to ask for more salsa 3 times; when it finally came we were out of chips but neither the waitress or the busboys offered more. Overall I like the place and the food but the staff...eh. Pros: Food, Drinks, Patio Cons: , Service more

Dining in the Dark 6/5/2004

We had a reservation for a booth, but we had to wait. We were eventually seated at small table for two in the dining room. It was so dark we could not see the menus to read them. We ordered margaritas which came to our table a long while later. It was as if we had been forgotten in the noisy crowd. Suffice to say that the food is average, the drinks are weak and the service, if it ever comes, is unacceptable. We will not return. Cons: , Noisy, Too dark more
