Ventura Blvd runs through the heart of Studio City and is lined with restaurants, bars, and cafes competing for your after-work attention. But when it comes to happy hour — real happy hour, with drinks worth ordering and food worth staying for — Roadside Taco's daily deal is hard to beat.
The Deal: Every Single Day
Roadside Taco runs happy hour every day until 6PM. The offer is simple: Buy One Margarita, Get One for $5. Your first margarita is the regular price of $10, and your second one drops to $5. That's two craft margaritas made with fresh-pressed juices and homemade syrups for $15 total. Not bad for drinks that would cost $16–$18 each at most cocktail bars in the neighborhood.
Three Margarita Styles
The bar program gives you three options to choose from during happy hour:
The Regular Margarita — classic lime and tequila with homemade simple syrup. Clean, balanced, and refreshing. The Spicy Margarita — same foundation with a heat kick that builds slowly. Great for those who want their cocktail with some personality. The Skinny Margarita — lighter on sugar but not on flavor. Built for anyone who wants the margarita experience without the heaviness.
All three are built by Bar Director Ben Goglia using the same fresh-pressed approach — no artificial mixes, no pre-made syrups. Browse the cocktail photos to see what you'll be sipping.
What to Eat During Happy Hour
Happy hour is better with food, and the menu is built for sharing. A plate of three tacos on handmade corn tortillas with fresh avocado runs $15 — split them with your happy hour companion while you work through your margaritas.
Best happy hour combinations: A Spicy Margarita with al pastor tacos. The heat in the drink pairs perfectly with the sweet grilled pineapple on the pork. A Skinny Margarita with baja fried fish tacos. Light and crisp meets crunchy and savory. A Regular Margarita with chicken tacos. Classic flavors, no overthinking required.
The Tuesday Exception
On Tuesdays, happy hour doesn't end at 6PM — it extends all the way until close. Combine that with $2 Taco Tuesday pricing and you've got the single best food-and-drink deal on Ventura Blvd. Two tacos and a margarita for under $10? That's a Tuesday tradition worth building.
The Patio Factor
Roadside Taco's outdoor patio is where happy hour really comes alive. Studio City weather is made for drinking margaritas outside, and the patio seating provides enough space to spread out without feeling like you're sitting on top of your neighbors. After a day of work in nearby production studios, media offices, or anywhere in the Valley, this is where the decompression happens.
