Food Stands near Downey, CA

“First time at Tacos Raul and I was seriously impressed! I ordered the wet burrito and it was so good, flavorful meat, perfect seasoning, and a generous portion. What made it even better? It came with a horchata included, which was super refreshing and tasty.

Service was fast and prices are cheaper than other spots I've been to, but the quality doesn't feel cheap at all. The dining area was clean and not overcrowded when I visited, making it a really chill spot to enjoy my food. Plus, there was plenty of parking outside, which is always a win.

Definitely coming back to try more from the menu!“

“Had the pleasure of visiting Tacos El Sobrino in the city of Downey, CA.
I've been enjoying their food for years from a their location off of 54th Street and Central where they sell Excellent Tendon Tacos. Now, they have this Brick and Mortar location.
I had the Birria Ramen and a Tendon Taco. Everything was delicious! Will be back again.“

“What a gem...hands down the best elotes l've ever had!! The corn man is super nice and super fast at pumping out Elote via cob or bowl. There was probably 20+ people ahead of me with multiple orders but it only took 25 minutes to get through since he's so efficient. It can be so amazingly rich and heavy for some folks but this is what you're coming for! A guilty pleasure ruminating in cheese, mayo and liquid butter and corn. I prefer the bowl over the cob since it's much easier to eat. I also recommend getting two at once so u don't have to wait in line again and it's so cheap. 100% recommend!“

“I was visiting L.A. with my friends to see a show. We decided to explore Echo Park and Silverlake and I'm delighted we came across Alejandras Cart. It's a popular spot but waiting with other customers and watching the food being made is part of the experience. Delicious food, great people.“

“Very tasty Mediterranean food with a Mexican twist. I tried several of the menu items and never had a bad meal here. Serving portions are big so you may share on most, unless you want it all for yourself 😜. The seating is limited, but still a nice spot for a great lunch.“

“You can't go wrong with anything on the menu, with that said I love to try a different item on it everytime I get a chance to stop by. Taste and quality are always on point. It's awesome to see the staff having a blast together with great music in the background making the experience feel fun even when there's a wait. Pricing is perfect as the portions are generous and the flavors are like to other. So happy to see this business growing as I look forward to seeing them all over the nation one day. Keep serving it up #TYQ!“

“My husband and I had Little Tokyo Taiyaki at are wedding as a dessert vendor during our reception and they were such a big hit with our guests! Communicating with them was extremely easy and they even were generous enough to let us come by their shop for a tasting! We ended up selecting the red bean, custard, and sweet potato fillings! On the wedding day, they came early to set up, provided enough taiyaki for guests to have several to eat there AND to take home as well, and even visited our venue beforehand to make sure they had the right outlets for what they needed so we were so impressed by their attention to detail. So many of our guests told us it was one of the highlights of the wedding and that the taiyaki themselves tasted amazing and fresh. We can't thank Ken and Kaylee enough for going above and on our wedding day and would highly recommend them to anyone planning a wedding and looking for a unique dessert option!“

“I’m a New Yorker who worked for years in a pizzeria, I take my pizza seriously. Elio’s is real pizza! The ingredients, flavor, and variety are why I can’t visit LA without stopping to grab a pie.“

“Los tacos están deliciosos. 100% recomendados. Los tacos tienen mucha carne.“

“The best food!! 100% recommended totally worth the wait in line! Food is amazing!!“

“Best tacos ACTUALLY! Family owned and very kind folks. Had 2 carne asada and 1 chicken tacos. The tortillas were fire and the meat sooo delicious. You also get to put your own toppings and they have guac as an option (not as an expensive add on). So yummy!“

“I’m such a fan of Clemen’s Kitchen. My friends and I have nothing but good things to say:
-the food is excellent (we all had different things, all delicious. + love the salsa/hot sauce/sauce options!)
-The owners are so nice; you’re not just coming here for a great meal, you’re welcomed into a space to enjoy that with a genuine warmth.
Thank you Clemen’s Kitchen!“

“Tamales Naborina is truly a hidden gem a street vendor that has been a staple in Watts for years. It’s the kind of place that’s known by locals, and while it’s somewhat of a well-kept secret, I believe everyone deserves to experience their incredible tamales!

**Location:** You can usually find the bright yellow food truck at the corner of 105th and Wilmington Avenue.

**Service:** The service is impressively quick, especially given the number of customers they serve in the morning. You'll be in and out before you know it!

**Parking:** Keep in mind that parking is limited to street parking, so be prepared to search for a spot and take a short walk to the truck.

**Food:** The tamales here are as authentic as it gets! They use traditional masa with lard and offer a variety of fillings, including red chicken, green chicken, red pork, and cheese tamales. I always opt for their cheese tamales, as they truly do not skimp on the cheese-to-masa ratio, make sure you ask for extra napkins to absorb the grease from the tamales. Don’t forget to grab their green salsa topped with onion and cilantro—it’s a must-have accompaniment and their champurrado is delicious!

On weekends, they also offer banana leaf-wrapped tamales and corn tamales, also known as Uchepos—if you know, you know!

**Overall:** If you’re looking for authentic and delicious tamales, Naborina Tamales is a must-visit. Their offerings are not only tasty but also filling, making it worth the trip!“

“pasamos de pasadita guiados por los reviews y nos sorprendió los mejores tacos de birria qué hemos comido. recomendamos al 100 por 100“

“Great, clean, new, modern & upscale design with new restaurants and diversified food selections 👍🏼🎉! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“We are from Guadalajara Mexico, they are not good…. They are delicious, the tacos las aguas, the quesadillas, this place is one hundred percent recommended to anyone who knows about Mexican tacos, their tacos are better than many places in Mexico, well served and everything they prepare is very delicious. The large roast quesadilla with tripe is a championship, only for connoisseurs... thank you very much for your service, first time I have eaten tacos outside of Mexico, they are delicious...“

“The food was very good but the service efficiency was very low. I hadn't gone to eat for a while and now that they moved to Calle Paloma, the waitress service was not efficient at all. I spent about 30 minutes waiting for them to take my order and they never did and I better end up leaving.“

“the food looks and tastes authentic. They have a hand-made tortilla option. I recommend "una de surtido a mano" trust fam“

“Tire Shop Taqueria is a great place to enjoy flavorful food in a fun and relaxed setting. The restaurant has a cool, casual feel, and it really does feel like a neighborhood spot where people come to enjoy good food without any stress. From the moment you walk up, the smell of grilled meat lets you know you are in for something special.

One of the best items on the menu is the carne asada tacos. The meat is very tender and juicy, and it has a rich, smoky flavor that tastes amazing in every bite. The carne asada is cooked just right and pairs perfectly with the warm tortillas and fresh toppings. These tacos are simple but incredibly delicious.

The grilled al pastor tacos are also a must-try. They are well-seasoned and full of bold flavor without being too heavy. You can really taste the spices, and the grilled edges add a nice texture that makes them even better. Each taco feels carefully made and very satisfying.

The cheesy gringas cooked on the griddle are another highlight. They are crispy on the outside, warm and melty on the inside, and packed with flavor. The cheese stretches with every bite, making them comforting and hard to resist. They are perfect if you want something rich and filling.

The campechanas are very tasty and bring together different meats in one delicious dish. The flavors blend well, creating a hearty and satisfying option. Overall, Tire Shop Taqueria offers amazing food, friendly service, and a relaxed vibe that makes every visit enjoyable and memorable.“

“Es la primera vez que las pruebo y los tacos dorados. Muy rico todo, carnitas, cueritos, los tacos con sus respectivas salsas y tortillas home made. Se los recomiendo!!“

“Amazing Food! Great Flavor! Great Place To Eat, Highly Recommended! 🌮🌮🌮🍜“

“As close as it gets to Mexico City street tacos without eating eating Mexico City street tacos. The staff is friendly and the food is delicious. Our tacos were so flavorful that I forgot to squeeze lime in mine and my husband forgot to put salsa in his. We ended up getting more to go. If we didn’t live all the way on the other side of the US, we would be back for sure. We had the al pastor tacos, queso birria tacos, and consomé.“

“exelente servicio la comida muy sabrosa😋 aquí encuentra amabilidad y cortecia 😍 🤩“

“I hired Sierra Guisados (Lucy and fam) to cater my mom’s retirement party this summer and I couldn’t be happier with their service, food, and set-up. They were on time and professional and everything from the beans, rice, salsas, aguas, and tacos was so authentic and delicious. Everyone loved it!

If you are visiting their pop-up arrive early for the vegetarian options 🤤“

“12/10 service, 12/10 food. 5 stars doesn't even do it justice. If you're on the fence, make the jump!

4100 isn't a typical spot for me on a Sunday, but it definitely will be now that I know Nugtown will be there.

I've worked in the service industry and done local food reviews for 10 years across Detroit, Denver, Las Vegas, and Los Angeles. This is one of the standout spots, hands down. That is saying A LOT.

Hand battered chicken, everything made to order, and Mike will let you know exactly what you need without trying to upsell and swindle you.

I take my food, specifically fried chicken, very seriously and there is not one thing that I could suggest to improve. I can't wait to tell everybody!

Thank you, Mike!!“

“Columbia Heights location is wonderful! Best pupusas ever. The slaw mix and red sauce goes perfectly with them. Always hot and well made💕“

“So I live in Compton, only a few blocks from the birra spot. I'll be honest, I did not like birria de chivo but I came here for Father's Day because my dad who lives in L.A. wanted to try it. Long story short I had no clue what to order. Gentleman at the window was soo helpful and patient in helping me, the señoras are cooking in the truck so we knew it was going to be good. Anyway my dad loved it, and I tried it and I really enjoyed it. Just be careful with parking the lot they are by was full and and I parked on a side street and I totally missed the sign and got a big fat ticket. ??“

“食材很新鲜，素食主义者的天堂“

“First time in southern California ( landed in LAX) was driving down to San Diego for a job and really wanted to try some tacos. And found this golden gem on the way. Nice people, amazing tacos ( that remind you of Mexico) highly recommend to try it!“

“I went to this place because it was recently ranked #3 among fusion restaurants, so I wanted to give it a try.
We ordered the pork belly with fries, nacho chips, and tacos.

Wow—nothing was too salty, and everything was so easy to enjoy. My friend and I ended up finishing all the food while chatting without even noticing.

The tacos were especially memorable. They’re small but generously topped, and when eaten with their homemade spicy sauce, they definitely made me think of having a beer.

The woman in the photo, who is the owner, was incredibly kind and welcoming, which made the experience even better. As a nice bonus, when we spoke Korean, they gave us a small discount.

Definitely worth to trying.
Fun and enjoyable experience.

P.S. clean bathroom ( important to me) haha“

“(Translated by Google) Rich carnitas tacos, very well served, well filled, the extra a golden tortilla to accompany it.(Original)Ricos tacos de carnitas, muy bien servidos bien llenitos, el extra una tortilla doradita de acompañamiento.

Parking: Es una lonchera, las mesas y sillas están sobre la banqueta por lo tanto el estacionamiento es en la callé, donde se pueda.“

“Super Tacos in San Gabriel is a true local gem — no frills, just delicious, authentic tacos packed with flavor. The al pastor and carne asada are standouts, and prices are super reasonable. Parking’s a bit tight, but the food makes it worth the stop every time.“

“unos tacos muy buenos tenía días de ir a probar esos ricos tacos y justo haora fui y muy buenos muy bien atendidos ..con una rapidez para servirle a la gente gracias ((tacos don cuco ..))“

“Exelente servicio de buena calidad y su personal muy amable totalmente de acuerdo con su Servicio. 100% Recomendable“

“i go to college and this food truck was posted just outside my dorm. decided to try it since i’m a big fan of Mexican food and it did not disappoint. Service was super fast even though there was a huge line. the food was absolutely incredible and easily goes in my top 5 best Mexican dishes. i got the perro with no beans and it was amazing. it included a huge homeade flour tortilla, super tender and juicy steak, a whole grilled jalapeño, spicy salsa, guacamole and cilantro and onions. definitely plan on eating here again and would highly recommend if you have the opportunity.“

“(Translated by Google) These tacos are amazing, very good and well served, they make a load of meat and the dog seasoning. Those with cecina with cheese are the most buts and roast and rib.(Original)Estos tacos están pasados de lanza, muy buenos y bien servidos, le hechan un chingo de carne y el sazon perro. Los de cecina con queso son los más peros y asada y costilla.“

“BEST TACOS EVER!!! WIFE AND I USE TOGO TO LA TO GET OUR TACOS. THESE GUYS MAKE EVERYTHING FRESH, EVERYTHING IS HOMADE!!! EVERYONE NEEDS TO COME HERE AND FOLLOW THEM!!!!“

“Wow! What an amazing experience!!!

These kind people make such excellent, authentic Mexican street food that I am speechless, and I just want to dance! The food looked so good that we completely forgot to take a photo, and everything was so delicious that I only remembered it when we had almost finished eating.

But I think with the fantastic sight of the hanging chorizo sausages, you can imagine how great the plate looks!

Muchas gracias mis amigos!!!“

“Some of the best birria in LA hands down, la birria de chivo (goat) is just amazing here. They make tortillas freshly big plus for me. Prices are really good, you pay about $20 for an order that can feed 2-3 people . I am a big guy and love to eat, so its amazing…. You gotta try this spot“

“The service is amazing. The staff are so patient and friendly! The tacos are was so delicious!! Also their salsa and homemade hot sauces are so good! Definitely recommend to get their dragon fruit drink if available! Also there are dog friendly tacos!! Only thing is parking, just find street parking.“

“I stumbled upon this family-run marisco joint. Friendly and fast service, they take credit card. Ordered a super mixto ceviche that had every kind of seafod on there, and 2 orders of tacos Dorado, which are deep fried shrimp tacos with sauce and avocados on top. Very delicious! Great for hot summer days“

“Great BBQ food. Chicken, sausage, ribs, sides are good too. Bbq bean I like them. Potato was perfect. Mac cheese I'm not big on it but it was good too. Bbq sauce was a bit on the sour side for me. I like a sweeter taste. Over all my order was worth the price.💯👍 For sure to come again.“
