“I love trying new vegan places but finding a new one where you would least expect, is awesome! Showed up around noon and the place was empty. The employees were really courteous and helpful and recommended a few items I should try which made ordering an easy choice. We (family of 5) ended up ordering 2 Chinese combo plates and a taco plate (one of each). Took about 15-20 min to make which isn’t too bad considering I didn’t call ahead. The Chinese food was good but the Taco plate was excellent!!! Definitely going back to try out more of the Mexican dishes. Plenty of parking.“

“I had to try the red meat burrito, I was told it was way better than Ramona's and it sure was! Prices are decent, the line is pretty long, bring your Spanish speaking skills with you (makes ordering easier), and order you a red meat burrito. I will definitely try the green meat burrito next time. I recommend.“

“The food is so delicious. My bf, who's such a picky eater, rated it a 10 out of 10. The birria is well seasoned and juicy. I got the birria plate with rice and beans. As soon as I bit into the birria, without thinking, I said "mmm" out loud. That's how good it was. If you eat at the restaurant, they serve the food in a plato de barro. They also bring you limes, red salsa, chili oil, and cilantro/onions. They bring you plenty of tortillas as well. I also tried the quesabirria taco. So fire! They serve it with red salsa and consomé on the side. Lastly, the horchata was refreshing and well served in a vaso de barro. I also want to add that the employees there are so welcoming and courteous. I'll definitely be returning!“

I'm currently hooked on their super tostada salad with shredded beef and I add extra rice with everything on it. I also get there tacos special for my husband and son. I've been going to this place for well over 4 years. It has never failed me. Service is quick and you get so much food for a great price. Come prepared to not finish your food. It's a lot. Lol but in a good way.Kid-friendliness: VeryWheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessibility yes“

Los Equipales Grill Mexican •
104 E Compton Blvd, Compton

“Feeling under the weather, so I came here for some pho. This is my second time coming here, unfortunately, no pictures were taken as I demolished the chicken pho I ordered. This place closes early and is only open during the week, but it is totally worth it if you can swing by. The chicken broth is so flavorful and you can request it spicy, which gives it an amazing kick. The service was good, and a few families were inside eating. It's a hole in the wall, but those are the best authentic places to eat.“

My wife and I are always on the lookout for a good pollo asado al carbon (chicken grilled over coals). Al Pollo did not disappoint. The seasoning was perfect and the chicken was juicy, tender and crisp. We had the family meal with 2 Pollos, tortillas, beans rice and potato salad. We'll be back soon!“

“Best place to get pupusas for sure, not to mention how amazing the food is yum ???, it's very affordable and the time wait is of course within reason but wait it gets better, for sure the curtido and salsa picante are bussin' as you're not getting the full story if you're only eating the pupusas alone. They have other items on their menu too besides pupusas but I don't know exactly what they are for sure I'll have to look again lol.“

“The food had good flavor but were missing some items such as cilantro/onion in the taco and the burrito I ordered but were in my cowork's tacos and burritos. Maybe the ones I got doesn't come with it? I got the ahogada taco and chili verde burritos and both were packed with flavor, but with they put cilantro and onions in it. A down side for my food was that I ordered and got charged for cheese, but they did not put in on either of my foods.“

Tacos El Porton Mexican • $
2201 E Alondra Blvd, Compton

“Maybe I had the wrong meal, Chile verde plate. The tortillas get 6 stars if it was possible, they're amazing!!!! The pork or chile was missing flavor, and refried beans were too runny. The tortillas saved the meal and their hot sauce is made with habaneros that gave flavor to the chile verse. Been here before but I dont recall what I had. My niece who's 2 1/2 had the pancakes and they were bland, so much that she only had a bite or two and that was it for her.“
