• Regional mexican • Downtown

Dig into “authentically inauthentic” street food by iconoclastic LA chef Ray Garcia from the vintage food truck parked on the eighth-floor terrace. Garcia, best known for his critically acclaimed LA hotspots Broken Spanish and BS Taqueria and named Chef of the Year by Esquire, has created an irresistible menu of gourmet tacos — from time-honored favorites like carnitas and carne asada to unexpected (but soon-to-be-classic) inventions. Wash it all down with refreshing margaritas, Mexican beers, and curated cocktails while the DJ spins tunes — from a booth fashioned from the front half of an old sports car.Please note that we are an Adults Only (21+) establishment after 9:00PM.For parties of 9 or more, please email reservations@level8dtla.com
