Hacienda Corona

  I had to only rate this four stars since I've never gone inside, but I think Hacienda Corona is the same building as the legendary Rag Doll club, established 1948. Someone should put up a historical marker!

  VERY interesting. My G/F had been bugging me to check this place out for awhile, now mind you she is not latin (I am), she is a high end Beverly Hills realtor and we do not fit the usual in a place like this. Most people think "Oh my God, I'd never go there" but they are missing out. The musica is Nortenio, high energy, tuba, horns, drums and it is LOUD, the drinks are strong and from what I saw thats all they have; booze, They frisk you when you enter and the guards look like you would not want to mess with them. We were almost frisked then they told us to get in. We got there as they opened (9:30) and the place had the smell of "lets clean up the floor". As one reviewer noted the waitresses had curves...but then most of the women also did and I mean CURVES. Everyone was very friendly, nice and it was really like being in a different country-so you ask for beer, or shots..if you do not really speak spanish don't be a gringo and mangle the language. Enjoy yourself. We loved it and plan to take my G/F's german relative when she comes to visit....

  I went there on A Thursday evening when it is free.  Beers are 4.00 this night.  The other drinks are kind of expensive.  I has a pina colada that   was 9.00.  Good music.  Big place lots of romantic tables for two with candles in the center. Two full bars.

  You won't find your "Principe Azul", but you will dance your little feet off! They tend to have good music, guys actually ask you to dance, and the drinks are preety strong. I have a good time when I go.

  Welp, I've finally made the plunge for you guys and after one year on yelp of telling myself that I'm gonna go to this place, find the mother of my future childrens, and polka my ass off!  
  
  for those of you whom are culturally inept, I'll give you a quick dissertation on a couple of "Regional Mexican" sub genres.  Norteno is the most famous style of what I like to call the "Mexican Country Music" Basically like American Country [and] Western most people from urban areas despise this music and see it as "hillbilly" rube gibberish.  They are also insulted when most ignorant Americans assume that this is the most common music in Mexico, and that all Mexicans listen to it.  This is not the case.  There are just as many genres and sub-genres of Mexican music as there in America.  But I digress.  Norteno music is basically like German music meets Mexico.  you basically have two types of song rhythms: polka and waltz.  most are danced the same way too.  but a little more reckless.  Norteno comes from the northern part of Mexico, hence the name.  Now, Banda is also another similar music but with the addition of more woodwind instruments.  it is also usually a little more faster pasted than Norteno, and is danced a little more like reckless basketball.  
  
  The waitresses here are as friendly as they are big bottomed!  The choice of musical bands was OK but not worth the $40 i paid on NYE.  I don't care how handsome the lead singer was.  I'll opt for the ugly Mexican guy with a more distinctive voice over a pretty boy singing banda covers of Mana any day.
  
  Very friendly atmosphere and there were some tacos being sold right outside for after hours consumption.
