El Floridita Restaurant

Loved the music. Was a taste of home. Drinks were nice, especially for a dance spot.

If you're going for the salsa dancing... The music is awesome, atmosphere and staff friendly.
I traveled to LA specifically to try out the Latin and salsa scene.
And some of the leads are welcoming towards new follows (obviously) haha.
But, the floor is so small and they don't limit the amount of people. You can't dance it's so crowded.
You can't even stand and wait for the floor, it's so cramped you can't even do that.
I think it's a waste of a cover charge.
For My date and I, I paid 30 to get in.
But we couldn't even dance. And the tables crowd onto the floor. So if you do manage to squeeze onto the floor... you will probably be running into, and trying not to get shoved into a metal chair the whole time. It would have been worth it, if there was even enough space to walk in or out.

Went on a Monday night, had reservations for 9:15pm. They had an amazing live band playing. Great salsa dancers and awesome food. By 9:30pm it was packed. Would definitely come visit again...

The food here is full of flavor and with good size portions. Music sets a great vibe and on Friday night will not find a more low key fun spot for dancing anywhere else in Hollywood.

Pro:
Great live band!
I went to salsa, and if you're seeking good, seasoned dancers... This was a perfect place.
Con:
I was pretty bummed on the size of the dance floor. It wasnt big enough for everyone, so the dancing quality went down. Plus if you weren't dancing, you were practically forced to sit on the lap of someone trying to dine there.
Next time, I will sadly forgo the experienced older dance scene El Floridjta offers, and will go somewhere I can move around and enjoy dancing.
And also avoid the harsh cover for such a small floor.
