Join us for this fun luncheon where we celebrate Cinco de Mayo (a day late) at one of the oldest family owned Mexican Restaurants in Los Angeles. We'll be at El Cholo on Western Ave. We'll get a sneak peak at their original oven and hear about their history while we indulge in their amazing food and drink. RSVPs are required in advance since they will need to prepare for us. Zoom is NOT available for this meeting. Sorry!

More about El Cholo

LA's very first Mexican restaurant. Since first opening our doors in 1923, El Cholo has operated as a family-owned business and today, the restaurants are run by Ron Salisbury, grandson of the founders. Many of these stories below are direct from Ron and a remembrance to the time of surviving as a restaurant for almost a century. Our legacy at El Cholo lies in its commitment to quality ingredients, long family history, loyal employees (some with over 40 years) and our dear devoted clientele. Through prohibition, the LA Riots, true Hollywood glamour and into the the 2000's, El Cholo continues to bring back memories for our guests. 

Our host venue, El Cholo, follows COVID safety guidelines set forth by the Los Angeles County Public Health Department. All LA5 members and guests are required to follow their guidelines.
