4.5 Stars! This establishment is in a food hall... Meaning it could get a bit confusing as you would need to stand in a line, which is formed outside specifically for Holbox. The dining is casual, yet the food is on another level... After all, they

Holbox I was recommended this spot by a friend from San Francisco, and wow! What a find. Holbox instantly reminded me of Entremar in Mexico City, both in vibe and culinary creativity. It's tucked inside a small Latin-themed food hall, but don
Great food with excellent service.
Will definitely go back for more. Parking was easy and tables were clean. AC was turned off on the evening we went otherwise everything was pleasant.
Finally got to try this place over the weekend.
Be aware, there is a line. However, the wait is worth it. I really enjoy the kanpachi tacos as it was something i haven't tasted. What was the winner has to be the yellowtail tostada. All the flavors balance so perfectly. The fish also tasted fr
I've only been once, and so far it lives up to the hype.
I decided to go one evening on a whim. The line was a huge no for me (as most are), so I placed a to go order. It was ready before the estimated time and packed very well, with everything in its place when I got home. I got the scallop aguachile an
Amazing food! I tried different tacos and all of them 10/10.
Staff members are so nice. I definitely recommend this place.
Wonderful hidden gem inside a food court in south central
Wonderful hidden gem inside a food court in south central LA. Wouldn't expect such spectacular flavors from a small place. So many fresh and flavorful dishes to choose from. I personally love lime/lemon flavoring and a big fan of ceviche so i
This completely lived up to the hype for me.
I was expecting some dry flavorless tacos based on the pics and I was so impressed. We started off with the scallops aquachile and it was just perfect. Melts in your mouth with that perfect citrus sour avocado flavor. I never really had scallops be

Came here with a friend for lunch on Friday and this place totally deserves its Michelin star. We got there about 15 minutes before opening, so parking was easy and we were part of the first group in line. Holbox serves YucatΓ‘n-style seafood tacos,
Simple Try It! It's AWESOME.
We lined up at 11am 30 minutes before they opened. The line moved fast. The couple in line told me to try the Collar. It was Flip'n fab.

I finally tried Holbox in LA, and wow--it lives up to the hype. The octopus was tender with a subtle smoky flavor, and the puree was creamy and perfectly complemented it. Simple, but thoughtfully done and really impressive
Phenomenal and so fresh.
Would definitely recommend coming here even if there is a long line. Moves pretty fast and the food is amazing. Scallop aguachile was so so fresh and spicy. I crave it. The place is inside of a food hall so there are plenty of seats! Grab a big l
Tried this place on a weekend.
We got there around 11am and lined up--doors open at 11:30. Parking was easy; we used the free lot next to theirs since the Mercado parking is $4/hour. Once they opened, ordering was quick and smooth. We tried the ceviche de atΓΊn (bluefin tuna) for

Had to see what the hype was all about and although it was good, it wasn't superb! Located in a food court type of building with plenty of seating inside and out. There was a line when we went on a Saturday evening but it didn't take long,
Came here a couple of months ago.
Disappointed in this Michelin star restaurant. The food was pricey. We ordered different tacos and different plates of food, and the sides for the plates were the same. The octopus plate, shrimp plate were bland. The octopus taco was very simil

Everything was super fresh at this now Michelin-starred marisqueria. The sea urchin was better than I've had in any Japanese restaurant. There was creativity and complexity of flavor, not just spice, and you could tell that all the ingredients w

AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with Holbox Los Angeles. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Holbox Los Angeles at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Holbox Los Angeles page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* EternalAnt36, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* EternalAnt36 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to EternalAnt36 for any questions Peter may have as EternalAnt36 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* EternalAnt36 now uses their connections at Holbox Los Angeles to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If EternalAnt36 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, EternalAnt36 receives the $200 reward which is credited to EternalAnt36's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Holbox Los Angeles!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
