That’s just about a block away from Ernie Jr’s Taco House, which for more than 40 years served fine Mexican food until it closed in 2014.
Near the end it wasn't so special. The drinks tasted bad, the places was kind of dirty, and the food was only so-so.
There's an Ernie's on Lankershim just south of Riverside. It's OK. They also have live music which is great if you like that and the drinks taste good.
Ernie's might once have been owned by the father of the guy who opened Ernie Jr's. Not sure, but I believe I remember hearing that back in the days when the Eagle Rock Galleria had a Monkey Wards.
It’s about a 1.5 mile crow fly from my home.
Maybe it’s payback for what they did to this guy:

A phone call is all it takes?
