Plaza de los Ángeles (Square of the Angels) is Little Mexico's signature restaurant. Filled to the brim with warmth, joy, and song, guests will surely leave Plaza de los Ángeles with their hearts and bellies full as they enjoy a merry evening underneath the stars with the accompaniment of Little Mexico's resident mariachi band.

Upon passing through the doors of the Spanish Colonial-style house at the edge of Little Mexico, near the Torre de Santa María, guests will be awed by the house's serene yet imposing state. Just above the doors rests a stone carving of the Mexican coat of arms, portraying an Mexican eagle exposing its left profile, the upper part of the wings in a level higher than plume and slightly displayed in a battle attitude; with the sustentation plumage downwards touching to the tail whose feathers displayed in a fan-like arrangement. The eagle's left claw perches on a bloomed prickly pear born from a rock emerging from a lake; while with the right one and the beak is holding, in attitude of eating, a curved snake, harmonizing with the whole achievement. The house appears to be constructed with limestone conglomerate, containing small shells of mollusks, also known as 'Coquina'. Once guests have passed the restaurant's entry, they find themselves not inside of one such house, but instead on a covered portico leading to a cobblestone street network at night.

This vibrant street network is dotted with colorful Spanish Colonial-style facades of non existent 'local' shops, restaurants, and houses on this side of the neighborhood, each revealing a bit of the inhabitants of Little Mexico and their backstories. After guests go down rustic stone steps decorated with a green , yellow and terracotta pattern with a white background, they find themselves in a small cobblestone plaza with a beautiful fountain made out of white stone peacefully pouring water into its basin. Colorful tiles decorate its' sides. Completing the picture are several pieces of art celebrating the Land of Sunshine, ranging from painted murals (including one featuring famed Mexican painter Frida Kahlo), detailed and bright-colored banners (with shapes of blooming flowers, tropical palm trees on a summer beach, an Aztec sun etc.), and hanging accouterments (serapes, ponchos, sombreros and the like), among others. The shops and the street shop carts are seen showcasing their latest wares, including (but not limited to) pieces of handmade jewelry, pottery, and clothing. Above them, a line of twinkling lanterns can be seen lighting the way and setting the mood for a festive evening ahead.

Guests will take a seat at charming iron terrace tables and chairs in one of the mesmerizing passageways of a quaint Mexican village, where a marvelous street food feast awaits. The darkened interiors of the restaurant is a reminder of the Mexican or Spanish practice of siesta, or going for a nap in the afternoon. During that time, shops and restaurants will actually close for that time period before reopening again for the evening rush. As such, the "perpetual nighttime" inside Plaza de los Ángeles is rooted in tradition and explains the overall liveliness of the place at such a late hour. The sounds of a Mexican mariachi band seem to perpetually soar through these streets. From time to time, Little Mexico's very own mariachi band will pass through the restaurant making guests want to sway to the exuberant and warm melodies of this world-famous traditional folk music. In one of the streets, a wooden band stand decorated with garlands in the Mexico's national colors hosts a short yet elaborate and intimate performance by the mariachi band after they've passed by other areas of the restaurant.
