As a fellow entrepreneur/business owner, I can easily say, they're doing great. Stop by and try a taco, maybe 2, hey, why not the birria plate if you're really hungry!“

2124 N Bullis Rd, Compton

“So far this is my go to spot for tacos considering we have so many around. The chorizo here is bomb & I'm usually picky with this choice of meat. Not a fan of the Pastor here. If you like spice don't forget the green avocado looking salsa in the bottle (differrnt than the avocado they alrrady add on the taco itself). They also usually carry 4 different aguas so far its a 2 thumbs up on the agua de piña & pepino. They'll usually also have horchata, jamaica & sometimes melon. I was not a fan of the mulita. Definitely a fan of the torta surprisingly. The quesadilla also does not disappoint. Also, service here is pretty quick so if you see a line don't let it scare you away.“

Birria LA linea Fast Food •
4444 E Olympic Blvd, Los Angeles - 8.87 miles

“Hands down, the best, best birria tacos I've ever had!!I've been eyeing this taco truck for the longest time when I was looking for birria tacos. I missed the chance to go from the last time I came by. Many other taco vendors also recommend this truck for goat birria tacos.We got some goat birria quesatacos, labio taco dorados, which were lips, asada vampiro, and of course, gotta get consome. Not many places have goat birria, and most of the time, they tend to be too dry. Those quesatacos were super tender, juicy, cheesy, and packed with tons of spices and flavors. Dipping in the beefy, hardy consome, game over. I've never seen beef lips before, so I gotta give a try. It got the texture of beef tongue, also quite delicious. Like any other taco trucks and vendors, service is always impeccable. Everyone is very friendly and supportive to other vendors. I said it once, and I'm gonna say it again. The best birria tacos!!!“

Taco de Birria Tacos • $
907 E 33rd St, Los Angeles - 8.84 miles

“These are addictive, juicy tacos that when you eat, you have to hit the pause button on any other activity going on...they are just that mind blowing. Afterwards you'll be thinking, when can my stomach take some more because they're so overpowering you won't be able to shake them from your mind. A modest tent set up outside a convenience store, next to the "Mirror Motel" along a backstreet in the Watts neighborhood converts into a carnival of flavor at the weekends when Mathew starts cooking beef asada and birria stew and toasts up his tacos on the hot iron griddle. Here is the bonafide, authentic people's kitchen taste of Los Angeles, far from some gentrified, corporate chain, cookie cutter, sterile offering in Beverly Hills. These tacos filled with stew represent the way food is served at home, not a smorgasboard of menu choices, just a couple of things done well, consistently, and dependably. They represent the taste of the working masses of Los Angeles whose bloodlines in this city are long while weaving in influences from various Mexican regions. It doesn't get more rustic and truly delightful than Mathew's tent stall where the corn tortillas are dipped in stew juices to soften them up before they are toasted on the griddle. His vat of birria conjures up the warmth and depth of roasted onions, cinammon, chiles, and slow cooked meat that falls into shreds off your fingers as you slurp up the juices. At $1.50 a pop Mathew's tacos are overflowing with complex flavor and are sensually overwhelming. You can tease the palate with fresh radishes and a suite of fresh tomato salsas, pickled onion and chilli sauces set out to garnish the tacos. The backstreet experience is indelible from your mind. I'm dreaming of going back next weekend. Please bear in mind he's only open on Friday, Saturday and Sunday as I understand it.“

“I returned to try the menudo and it was absolutely delicious. The juice was flavorful and full bodied. The panza was soft and delectable. The meat was generous (but not cut small enough! I had to tear pieces off bc of how huge the meat slices are and juice would splash on my shirt, or I would burn my mouth and fingers trying to rip the meat apart with my teeth and fingers.) Other than the pain and looking like a doofus because I had to tuck napkins into my collar, It was worth it! Also, their tortillas are SO DAMN GOOD. She makes them by hand the flavor is stellar. I would like to bring my family here for menudo breakfast one day!“

“I have been *quite* delinquent at keeping up with converting review drafts to actual reviews - but I feel especially bad seeing this one un-posted still, given it was just in the local news last week, they're putting their popup on temporary-but-indefinite pause because it wasn't getting enough business... hopefully they do reopen, ideally in a proper space, because their bbq is *great*. I hadn't ever been to their now-closed official popup location, but after having heard how great they were for the previous year, I finally had a chance to try them over the summer, at the Beachwood anniversary event. I loved that I was able to buy meat in quarter-pound increments, so I could try two of my favorite bbq meats, brisket and pulled pork. The pulled pork was great; the brisket was probably the best brisket I've had from a bbq place in Long Beach (it's still not Franklin, but *nothing* is Franklin). I also tried their mac & cheese - they only had one size, for $8, but that size was *large*. The mac & cheese was also great. Seriously friendly people, too, so I really hope they succeed in their quest for a brick-and-mortar spot. (And that the quality is as good once they do, both so I don't have to give them a worse review later, and because I would like to have that brisket again! And because they're great people and they deserve to succeed, of course.)“

“Let me say: I LOVE the fact that they make the shells fresh on-the-spot (got that extra corn flavor) and it's pressed right in front of you. Plus you can see them grill everything right there. Pretty self-explanatory: You start at the end of the line where the menu is. You let the lady making the shells know what you want, and she'll start the shells for those items, then you confirm with the next guy cutting up the stuff what kind of meat, so he'll cut it up and throw them on the shells once they're grilled correctly. Any more from the grill is the next guy over, but if you're good, you can skip straight to paying where you can get a drink.Horchata tasted good too!One thing to note: When the guy asked "Que carne?" (What meat?) My cousin said something in the most gringo accent there was. Homeboy's face got contorted as he tried to guess what she meant. Yo, give her a break, she's from Chicago, she's about as white as they come, but she tried. ?“

“Tacos La Flamita Mixe has either moved or opened a second stand. You can now find them on the corner of Bundy and Goshen in Brentwood, in front of the Ralph's on Wilshire and Bundy.Can't say enough good things about this food! The al pastor is not dry but not oily either - perfect. Asada is great. Their selection of salsas and toppings are awesome. Great bang for your buck. Stuffed burritos and quesadillas. Feed a family of 4 easily for $50 to $60 bucks.The people working the stand are super nice and down to earth. They usually put out some of those small plastic stools to sit on the sidewalk. There's a curb dividing the sidewalk and the Ralph's parking lot that you can also sit on. Perfect for a quick bite.“

“First of all, I really wanna give a shout out to this young women who’s doing it big, honestly her food it’s another level. It’s hard to find a really good authentic Mexican cuisine. I saw her on Instagram and I wanted to give her a try. I didn’t know what to expect. She’s located on Central Avenue in Los Angeles close to el segundo, went there. She had five options which all of them taste great. But I want to emphasize in two guisados, Chicharrón in salsa Verde, and mole poblano de pollo ? . Was really tasty. That chicharrón was super clean, but the winner was the mole poblano with pollo, ??????‍??‍??‍? fire he had that smokiness, sweetness and berry reach in favor. With the handmade tortillas. How can you go wrong please ?Give me 10 to go Lol ?.it’s a taco ? that melts in your mouth. We have to support more businesses like sierra guisados, if she keeps doing what she does. She’ll have my support no doubt about it. Congratulations.“

“MÉXICO (Guerrero) ??Excerpt from Eat the World Los Angeles:While you are standing in line waiting for your chance to order this goat and lamb barbacoa, listen to the conversations of others around you, or if you do not speak Spanish start one yourself. It becomes clear that the vast majority of customers here live in nearby neighborhoods of South and Southeast Los Angeles but originally come from Guerrero.The food and adobo-rubbed Guerrero-style barbacoa they remember is best represented here under the large yellow tent. The stand has lived for over a decade, the tent was once white and much smaller, but now the current one becomes a sight that makes your heart speed up in anticipation of the upcoming meal. Barbacoa can be thrown on any menu, usually resulting in a plate of dry meat laid in front of you, but it takes someone talented and willing to put in the hard work of properly cleaning an animal and cooking it overnight to make the best.After finishing you can start to appreciate the origin stories of this food and the family that serves it. On the business card, a beautiful scene of Taxco shows the main cathedral and the mountains that surround the Northern Guerrero town. It is quite a bit closer to Mexico City than it is to the coastal Guerrero city of Acapulco, and shares a culture similar to the mountainous towns of nearby Estado de México, Morelos, and Puebla, places that have all seen quite a dramatic loss of families that have moved their lives north. It is an honor and a privilege to share meals with those that have come to Los Angeles, and the amazing yellow-tented food stand that fulfills their cravings from back home.“

“3.5 stars. i was driving home on a Sunday night at around 1800 and saw this spot as I was headed towards the highway. Driving through Hunting Park really makes you hungry for Mexican food...:) Stopped and got 4 different tacos. The extra stuff you can add to your tacos are awesome. The grilled onions, the charro beans, the pickled onions, the radishes, the cucumber, and I think there was maybe two other things. Then there's 3 salsas and lime to top it all off. It's a lot. My tacos were loaded. I also got a pineapple fresca. I honestly think I loaded too much on my tacos and couldn't taste the meat as much. I got the pastor, chorizo, buche, and something else-it was sirloin steak. All of it's not bad but I liked the chorizo the most. There's maybe four other meats. Again, I think I overloaded my tacos and should def go back give this place another shot. But this is a cool spot for street tacos. Total cost was $12 though, which is a little pricey.“
