Roadside Taco

If you want to drink with friends and maybe eat some food, but have zero desire to worry about reservations, head to Roadside Tacos. Located along Cahuenga Pass between Universal City and Studio City, the colorful taqueria is walk-in only and everyone orders drinks and food individually at the counter. There is seating inside, but the spacious, string-lit side patio is where you want to be. Here you can push together however many tables you need to fit your group, and whenever you finish your first margarita, you can just walk up to the separate outside bar to order your second.
