General Info

Safari Restaurant And Bar at 2321 1st St, Los Angeles, CA 90033, feels like one of those local spots you stumble upon once and instantly add to your list of must-visit locations. The moment you step in, the atmosphere is relaxed, friendly, and perfect for anyone craving hearty comfort food with bold flavors. It’s the type of restaurant where the menu tells its own story, and every dish feels like it was made with genuine care.

What really makes this place stand out is how naturally the flavors blend across their signature dishes. During my visit, I started with their Aguachile, and it hit that refreshing, spicy balance that keeps you reaching for the next bite. A little later, I tried the Agua Chili, and although it shares similarities with Aguachile, it carries its own twist-bright, tangy, and incredibly satisfying. As you explore more of the menu, the richness of their Birria shows up with deep, slow-cooked goodness that pairs perfectly with the warm, welcoming vibe of the diner.

If you’re into classic comfort dishes, their Pozole is a must-try. It’s warm, rich, and layered with flavors that feel like home, whether you’re a local or just passing through Los Angeles. And for something a bit more casual, their Chicken Wings add a fun, flavorful touch to the overall dining experience, especially if you’re hanging out with friends or looking for something easy to share.

Safari Restaurant And Bar also pays attention to convenience. There’s a wheelchair-accessible car park, a wheelchair-accessible entrance, and plenty of seating, making it comfortable for all guests. The free parking lot is a huge plus, especially in this part of the city where parking can be a challenge. These thoughtful details make the experience smoother from the moment you arrive.

What I appreciated most is how everything-from the food to the layout-feels intentionally designed to be welcoming. The restaurant’s reviews often highlight this same experience, and after visiting, it’s clear why. The team here delivers a genuine blend of flavor, comfort, and accessibility that keeps people coming back.

If you’re exploring Los Angeles or looking for a new dining spot to add to your regular lineup, this restaurant deserves a place on your list. Whether you’re craving something spicy, something warm, or just a casual spot to enjoy good food, Safari Restaurant And Bar delivers in a way that feels honest, flavorful, and truly memorable.

What customers say?

“ Great place with AMAZING traditional Mexican food. I thought my Tia was in the kitchen cooking up her famous recipes. It’s a hidden jewel in Boyle Heights. The restaurant was recommended to me by a friend and I prefer word of mouth rather than reviews because they know I’m a foodie that is picky. I’m making this my Sunday funday place to be. Thank you guys! ”

“ You can park in the back. We drove around 4 times looking for street parking and finally noticed there were a few places you could park if you turned in just after the restaurant. The food was AWESOME as was the margarita. Wide Mexican beer selection and a few American favorites. Great salsa and I improved my Spanish by watching the music videos. The staff was incredibly friendly and the bartender very attentive. I will look forward to going back again! ”
