50 Best Mexican Restaurants near Century City

“First off, Terrific Customer Service at the Long Beach, CA location! The manager is amazing. So helpful with recommendations when asked, provides great detail, and is so enthusiastic about the incredible menu. Tocaya at 2nd & PCH has lovely, fresh, bright, clean food. The menu is unique and flexible. You get to choose the protein you want, the cheese you want, whether or not you want your dish to be vegan. So many options and super tasty food! My friend really enjoyed the VEGAN Asada & VEGAN Tinga tacos. I loved my Taco Salad with gluten-free, battered & fried mahi-mahi (that was so, so scrumptious) with Queso Fresco. I swapped and got the cilantro lime dressing (instead of the roasted poblano dressing) and my bowl of goodies was delicious. We shared and relished the Street Corn and the (VEGAN) Queso & Chips. We were both shocked to find the Queso was VEGAN; it’s that good! We also tried the vegan Crema, just to check it out — SO yummy. AND the obviously homemade chips were mouthwatering. Tocaya has seasonal Sangria selections, beer, and other interesting drink options. They’ve got indoor and outdoor seating… and I recommend you head over soon!“

“Absolutely delicious food. Chulita Bowl was fantastic, hibiscus mimosa and latte were so good. Friendly staff too! Thanks for the wonderful brunch. 🙏🧜🏽‍♀️“

“best food and customer service 🥰“

“Exquisito todo y el servicio excelente yo si regreso“

“Food was delicious! We tried the molotes de plátano, which are three small, crispy banana fritters filled with cheese, served on top of a rich, flavorful mole sauce. We also enjoyed tacos de suadero, tender brisket cooked to perfection; Taco Sonia, a specialty with beef rib, chorizo, potatoes, and cactus; and flor de calabaza quesadilla, a savory quesadilla filled with tender squash blossoms and cheese. Additionally, there was a daily special: taco de huitlacoche, made with truffle-like corn fungus that has a smoky, earthy flavor. All dishes were served with warm, homemade tortillas made from fresh maize dough, enhancing the authentic taste.“

“Friendly customer service 😍. Food was very good, especially the Spanish Sticky Date Cake 😋!“

“Wonderful place Great drinks and food“

“Great food.. bad service! Server seemed out of it ? my food came to my table and no utensils. I waited a couple of minutes for the server (only 1 server?) to come around but no luck. I got up and went to the front counter to get what I needed. I was really annoyed at this point. Keep in mind there was only one other table dining in so it wasn't busy or I would've been more considerate.

The food is great but you guys really need to improve your service.“

“Had a beautiful bridal shower for 24 persons in their outdoor patio. Staff was friendly, welcoming and attentive; food was delicious and served up in generous-sized portions.“

“El chato taco has quickly become my favorite place for tacos in West LA. Their al pastor is juicy and flavorful, and I always go for the salsa verde. The portions are generous, and the tacos are reasonably priced. The place has a chill vibe, and I’ve always had good service. It’s a great spot for a quick and tasty bite“

“the prices aren't are not that expensive they got some good food here and good staff“

“It’s been one of the greatest experience at a restaurant with the sell Mexican food. He has the homemade flavor the people make you feel welcome. I highly recommend this shrimp tacos Those are fantastic. Everything is so clean. It really makes you wanting to come back“

“One of my absolute favorite places to eat in Los Angeles!“

“Delicious food and drinks!!!“

“This is a great example of how LA street mexican food culture is like.

This place has one of the best pastor tacos in LA. Their meats are well seasoned and are not dry. Their salsas have great flavor and heat.

The lines can be long but it is worth the wait. You just can't beat this place when it comes to taste, quality, and price.“

“I love this place. I am from Mexico and this place is just perfect, same quality of a good good restaurant in Oaxaca. The hand made Tortillas are the best in Los Angeles, loved the mole, I had the chile relleno, and it was an amazing vegetarian option for me. Service was so warm and friendly. I want to take all my friends to this place so Definitely I will be back!“

“I passed this place a dozen times. This morning I was craving some breakfast. I asked for something that was not even on the menu. A chilaquiles burrito. He said I will be happy to make it for you. It was awesome! Everything I wanted wrapped in that burrito. Great place the owner is so friendly and gracious. I highly recommend that everyone support this wonderful small business!“

“So glad my daughter and I stopped here. We each had breakfast burritos and they were excellent. Not only delicious, but big. We both tried the hot salsa and liked it. The atmosphere was very inviting. The service was the best I've received in a very long time. The server was very attentive and sweet. The cook came out and asked if we were enjoying our meal. He was interested in our feedback. We both decided we would be back even though we don't live in the area. It was definitely worth the effort of finding parking. Don't pass this place up
PS, the cook let us try the birria. That's what I'm ordering next time. Yum“

“Me gusta mucho que los productos como las tortillas el chocolate quecillo asean de muy buena calidad lo recomiendo de verdad 👍👍👍👍“

“Perhaps the best Al pastor tacos I’ve ever had, inarguably the best I’ve ever been served in a parking lot. The orange sauce is far spicier than you think it’ll be but that shouldn’t inhibit you from pouring it on. The passionfruit juice was a beautiful and refreshing way to recover from the heat! Worth going out of your way for and EXCEPTIONAL bang for your buck“

“This spot is soooo good! The staff had such great energy and it showed in how delicious the food was! The bread on the torta was so fresh and that corn tortilla was out of this woooorld. I also had a really great spicy marg with mezcal. I will be back.“

“A little not-too-out-of-the-way mexican restaurant. Both inside and outside dining at a fair price (remember this is LALA Land). No booze but only a $2 charge to bring your own. Friendly service. We visit santa monica/venice a few times a year and we'll put this place on our return list.“

“Yummy food. Good customer service. Very nice people“

“Food was great our server Dominique was great!“

“Wandered in from the pier after looking at close restaurants with great Google reviews. Oscar made my meal really enjoyable. He made a delicious Oaxacan Old Fashioned (hint: ask for a Tajin rim) and the tacos were delicious. Highly recommend for friendly staff, delicious tacos (although this is NOT a taco place), and yummy drinks!“

“the fish is fresh and yum. not flakey fish.“

“Love the people and food is amazing!!“

“Best food in town and sports merchandise“

“atienden muy bien los meseros son muy serviciales todos y la manager pregunta si todo esta bien estan al pendiente en todo momento muy buen servicio“

“We have been going to Don Cuco’s for many many years!!! Family celebrations are always fun & tasty !!“

“The service is friendly and fast and delightful. My daughter loves their salsa for chips …it’s the only salsa she likes. Service is so sincere and attentive. It’s our first time here and it’s super cozy and the food is absolutely the best Mexican I have had. There are lights on the ceiling and it’s super Duper beautiful.“

“Delicious food and drinks“

“I’ve been here twice in last week, and absolutely LOVE the red enchiladas. I’ve been missing the enchiladas back in my hometown and these have the same homemade feel. The chips are incredible, and the mild salsa with cilantro is to die for. Will definitely be making this a frequent stop of mine here in Los Angeles. So happy I found this place, if you’re on the fence about going, go try it!! You won’t be disappointed.“

“Sooo good. I’m vegetarian and there’s lots of fun options (potato tacos, breakfast burrito… amazing), but the seafood also always looks super fresh and delicious. Love the atmosphere too— a very casual hole in the wall type place, but everyone is in a good mood and there’s always jazz playing.“

“Good food and fast service.“

“Love the Place, Will join again“

“Was pretty good, loved the verde sauce and atmospheric grit. Was at the Hollywood Heritage Museum book sale today and saw the original vintage photos of the place. Very cool!“

“If you are looking for halal Mexican food, that's the right address. I always take my guests to any of the Papi restaurants if they want to try Mexican cuisine - but I like the Santa Monica vibes more. Definitely recommended! And don't skip their beverages, each of them is an authentic gem.“

“The best Mexican food in LA County!“

“Desde que conocí este lugar para mí como oaxaqueño ha sido similar a tener un pequeño pedazo de mi tierra. La anatomía de una tlayuda sencilla hasta en los puestos de la calle es: la tlayuda, asiento, frijol, QUESILLO y verdura, pero… que te cobren el quesillo como un extra…??!!, entiendo la carne, pero el quesillo…????!!!! Eso es demasiado, tal vez en otro platillos en entendible, pero en una tlayuda…???!!! Fuera de eso, sigue estando rico todo.“

“Had my birthday dinner at this restaurant. The view from the balcony at night is so lovely. I had the Enmoladas dish; and it is a must try! The mole sauce is authentic and rich in flavor. Very nice staff as well. They were kind enough to sing me happy birthday 😊 I recommend making a reservation ahead of your visit.“

“Me encanto este lugar todo muy rico y muy atentos buen servicio“
