I can say a lot of good things about Pink Taco in Century City. Unfortunately, all of those good points are undermined by a fundamental flaw in the restaurant's concept. The good: Location, layout (including an outdoor patio), decor, service, and food are all amazing. I've had the lobster enchiladas twice. Excellent. Refreshing, new & unique versions of the standard Mexican food and decor you'll find anywhere else. The bad: The NOISE. "Alternative rock" music plays at dance club volume. The experience is like having dinner in the middle of a dance floor. We had to literally shout our orders to our server and he had to shout them back at us to confirm he got them right. One-on-one conversation is very difficult -- unless you can read lips. Group conversation would be impossible without lots of shouting. Pink Taco should decide if it wants to be a restaurant or a dance club -- it's ridiculous to try to be both at the same time. If the music volume were maybe 1/10th of the current level, Pink Taco would be a real winner.
Pros: Good food, fun & unique decor
Cons: Ridiculously LOUD music!
