Guess I’m the resident Estrano groupie around here. I didn’t go last night but went to the charity pop-up with comfy pup, quarantine pizza, and more last week. Still a total madman, still big crowds and a long wait, and also still really awesome. Loved the ramen alfredo with crispy pork belly, and the massaman curry mazeman ramen was very odd and fun. Highly recommend if you bring a couple friends and show up prepared for a wait. Fun scene/good vibes so the line doesn’t seem so bad.

Yeah, I’m a big fan too, of both Estrano and Little Dacha (think there’s a connection between the two). Estrano feels like a quintessentially only in LA thing and is purely that dude and his perspective.

looks like they will soon have a more permanent location!

Sorry for the dark bad quality pictures. We got the beef tongue caramelle, the rabbit, the crunchwrap supreme lasagna, duck leg, and the black garlic+ovaltine gelato. Really impressive. Our favorite was the duck caramelle. The taco bell crunchwrap lasagna was evocative but salty—maybe if i was less sober.

Amazing vibes. I like the reclamation of quasi public space. It was across the street from Majordomo. Kind of like waiting in line for the club, at some random lot in untouched waterfront Brooklyn, then hanging out at the taco truck with the other wanderers, but with much better food, and all at once
