The paisley pattern carried over into linens that covered tables in the seating area, where Bruce's Gourmet Catering provided snacks. The event's gilded chairs and bright red flowers had a sense of presidential pomp that mirrored the premise of the show. Gold was the accent color and appeared in everything from pedestals and banquettes to centerpiece vessels and even the vests and ties on waitstaff.

Stained glass lighting and iron fixtures adorn the walls, and 100-year-old doors from a Mexican church flank the patio and front entrance of the building. There are two patios in all.

The newest outpost of the Mexican restaurant Pink Taco was slated to open on the Sunset Strip by the end of May, with two bars intended to draw a nightlife crowd. The space that is home to the new 12,000-square-foot, three-level Pink Taco most recently housed Miyagi’s and once housed the Player’s Club in the 1940s. Harry Morton stripped and restored the Pink Taco Sunset Strip’s interiors to the exposed brick and raw steal ironwork. The design includes Dia de Los Muertos street graffiti, subway tiles from downtown L.A.’s metro station, murals of Lucha Libres, Calavera, and goddess Mictecacihuatl, and vintage candelabras that hang from the ceiling. The 120-seat, indoor-outdoor ground level includes the largest patio on Sunset Boulevard.
