Well it’s kinda sad, this tamal joint was getting back in our good graces cause when they were on the corner of Ashe and District they started out GREAT!! Then like most food places they lower there standards so they moved to Pacheco and it was getting good! But I go order some food and some champorrados. Food was good👍🏽 but the champos ( sorry pocho slang 😝) were nasty 🤢. They were super sweet for of all then I tried to push through but the taste of chocolate and dish soap came through, no joke. Hopefully they fix that. Come on SO CAL TAMALAES. There’s still hope👏🏾👍🏽🙏🏽

Arrived at 12:23 pm on 2/7/25. This location needs to train their employees to get along and be professional. I was in line ordering and a kitchen female employee was rude, yelling and discipling a female employee in front of customers. Lobby had a lot of customers and this could have been talked about in office or somewhere in the back of the restaurant. Not in front of us. It made me not want to order from here again. That kitchen female employee ruined my appetite and that female employee was sad and her face showed that she was not ok. She did not deserve that. This location needs help training

Horrible service. Everything I asked for they did the opposite. Now I have 60 dollars worth of food no one will eat. I asked for plain tacos they put Everything on them . I asked for no guacamole or sour cream on my quesadillas, They put extra sour cream and and guacamole and I tried calling them and they won't awnser
I only tried the churro boat.I like them. They were extra crispy.

Food uses to be really good but last few times just no flavor and has been really cold. I got an pastor burrito, the meat was warm, beans were cold and rice was cold and this is not the first time this has happened. Very disappointed especially for the prices you pay,

I had tried this location today because I had looked on the website and most customers said good things about the food. But, Unfortunately the Asada tacos that I bought was a little disappointing. The meat was seasoned well But my tortilla’s was extremely greasy real bad and that made me a give a review! 1/20/25

Ordered the tamale combo and it was awful! The massa was all brown and super dry, the meat was overcooked and again inedible. The entire meal was thrown away. Guess I will stay with what I know, and will never order again.

SoCal Tamale truly captures the experience and flavors of East Los Angeles taco trucks, but in a welcoming brick-and-mortar setting. The carne asada is absolutely on point, and their triple-filtered purified water is a nice touch. I can also personally vouch for the menudo—it’s excellent!
My go-to plate is the huevos rancheros with meat, but the quesabirria tacos and consommé combo is another favorite of mine. Honestly, I haven’t tried anything here that I didn’t enjoy.
What really stands out, though, is the staff. Everyone is always so kind and attentive, which makes the experience even better. Kudos to the team managing this location—you’re doing an amazing job.
I ❤️ SoCal Tamale!!
