Costa Alegre Restaurant is a local Mexican haunt located on Sunset Blvd. in Echo Park. It serves a mix of authentic and more American versions of traditional Mexican cuisine, from pozole to enchiladas plates. With a prominent bar area inside, its happy hour specials are quite popular (and with good reason). Monday through Thursday you'll find two-for-one Micheladas and Mexican draft beer for only two dollars. Other highlights include the Steak Chilaquiles and the Carne Asada Nachos, which is a perfect pub dish to share with friends while nursing a few beers. The restaurant has limited free parking in front, with metered parking all along Sunset. For a more upscale and family-friendly take on dining, skip the taco truck and take your loved ones here for hearty Mexican favorites.
