“Villa's Tacos were amazing! and I'm not saying this just because of the hype of the Super Bowl. I'm saying this because I mean it. The tacos were just amazing to me. Not your regular everywhere tacos. These tacos were homemade recipes. I had the carne asada, pork with potato (puerco con papa) & beans with cactus (frijoles con nopal). It's a week later that I tried these tacos and I can't stop talking about them. My favorite was the beans with cactus. Soooo good. Also, the atmosphere was just so nice and lively. I truly enjoyed every minute of my visit here. Thank you Villa's Tacos, we will return.“

“Incredible burritos and quesadillas !! I love how consistent this spot is, it never misses. Super high quality protein and generous portions. The steak is my favorite but honestly can't go wrong. Don't forget to add the toum arbol sauce on the side it's unbelievable :)“

“My boyfriend and I came here yesterday for the first time to celebrate our anniversary. The food was incredible, the staff were lovely, and the music and atmosphere was great! We absolutely loved the food- we got birria ramen, kpasa fries, and a birria quesadilla. OMG soooo delicious, we were both so happy. We loved it here and will definitely be coming back again! <3“

“Delicious and fast tacos. The restaurant knows what they are doing. The lines moved so fast and I got me food within 5 minutes. They have complementary potatoes which is awesome since they help with the spicy of the spicy salsas. They also have a self serve salsa and topping bar which is my favorite so I can generously garnish and drench my tacos in salsas. We realized this was a really popular spot in this area because it was already 12 am and this place was still really packed. Really delicious and authentic tacos, will definitely come back again.“

“I had suuuuch high hopes for this place. Don't get me wrong, the tacos were very tasty, just soooo greasy!! My asada taco grease got all over. I mean, it didn't stop me from eating most of my food 😬🤣.... but the grease floating on my plate was a lil bit of a disappointment. 😩 Hubby's tacos were REALLY GOOD, no grease so maybe it was a bad asada night. I'LL BE BACK though.... to giver her another try.“

“Local Taqueria worth the stop.“

“Delicious …. Great food truck authenticity“

“Me gusta la comida pero no tienen q perder el cuidado en la presentación de los platos y asegurarse q lleven todo eso es muy importante aun tengan mucha junte haser los platos con la misma cuidado de ciempre“

“love simon. recently the quality has decreased a bit, with twice getting soggy oily tacos that just dont have the care put into them that they used to. the new digital ordering tablet is really bad. i also wish they would put their salsas into to-go cups for you so it would be cleaner than a communal station. four stars because they used to be my favorite truck in la and i know what they’re capable of!“

“I'll be honest the atmosphere is not good yet if you wish to taste an authentic Mexican dish ex taco, burrito etc with hand made tortillas and great quality of meats and vegetables this is the place to go. And moreover the prices are cheap. I'm definitely coming back.!😁“

“las gringas espevialidad de la casa“

“Every time you walk into this restaurant, the vibe is absolutely amazing. The atmosphere is always fresh and full of energy thanks to the music one visit might be old school hip-hop and R&B, the next you’ll hear country, Banda, or even modern pop and house. It keeps things exciting and makes every experience feel unique.
But the real star here? The specialty tacos. Hands down, some of the best in Southern California. They’re packed with flavor, made with care, and honestly set a new standard for what tacos should taste like. The quality is consistent, and no matter what you order, you’re going to be impressed.
On top of that, the pricing is unbeatable for SoCal. You get top-tier food and an atmosphere that makes you want to keep coming back without breaking the bank. It’s rare to find a place that nails both the food and the vibe, but this restaurant does it effortlessly.
If you’re looking for a spot that combines amazing food, unbeatable tacos, and an always-fun atmosphere, this is it.“

“Great tacos!!!! To be returning soon again....“

“Avocado Fresh Mexican Grill was a great find. I ordered one of their bowls, and it was fresh, flavorful, and packed with hearty portions—exactly what you want from a build-your-own Mexican bowl. Everything tasted vibrant, and the ingredients were clearly high quality.

The staff was also incredibly friendly and helpful, making the experience even better. Overall, a delicious meal and great service. I’ll definitely be back!“

“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.“

“Ricooooo! Y limpio y la salsa picosa“

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

“I drive by this spot all the time and finally stopped to give it a try. I got the Al Pastor burrito and was sooo happy with my choice. You see them cooking it right in front of you, all fresh. The tortillas are handmade as well and you can absolutely tell the difference. Love the salsas as well. It’s quick, reasonably priced, and everyone is kind. What more can you want from a local taco stand? If you are wondering whether to stop in, just do it already and thank me later“

“This place was highly recommended. I had their carne asada burrito 🌯. It was a generous portion of fresh meat, rice & beans. The red salsa made it tastier. I had to save half for later as it was filling. Will definitely return!“

“This was by far one of the best spots in the market. The Carnitas are killer and the portion sizes are huge. Don’t be scared away by the prices because they more than make up for it in the portion sizes. Definitely a must stop while you are at the market and looking for some good grub!“

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

“You can never go wrong bringing a friend from out of town here at Upper West, joining family members to celebrate or just coming over to have a really tasty and good quality healthy meal! The owners greet guests, servers are attentive and the food is amazing! We come here often and love the appetizers from the chopped salad, to the crunchy rice tuna and cauliflower, to their main staples steak tacos, their seabass and short ribs! Do not forget the pudding for dessert! Wine selection is also great!“

“I went yesterday for the first time with my kids.
My parents invited me, since they said they had been there before and know i love tacos/tortas/etc.
The kids and i loved it.

Kid-friendliness: They gave my kids lollipops after.“

“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!“

“This place is a gem. My wife loved the chicken tacos and the chorizo tacos. I tried the chorizo and potato burrito and it was bomb. Reminds me of the homemade ones my grandma used to make me. The red salsa was also fire. Had to order extra tacos to go for dinner. Did I mention the prices? Talk about bang for your buck! Definitely my new go to spot.“

“Not even gonna lie. Some of the best tacos I've had here. The chicken wasn't pretty but it was dang sure good. It was for sure up to par with the pork. The pork was that crispy cook too, but they could cook it how u like. Where im for sure sold is that the tacos are cheap. I've noticed the price rise over the years. Another plus goes to the location. I believe if they aren't there, or right next to them this dude makes these mash potato meat and veggie bowls in the potato. Im telling you, you really have to check out the food on the street. Both the tacos and the potatoes. Last thing, they weren't those little tacos either. Nah, these tacos got gains. Please don't miss out.“

“If you need quick Mexican food, this is a great spot.

I got the sampler to go, and it was really tasty—well cooked with good flavors. Ordering was fast, perfect if you’re in a hurry.

I’d definitely come back to try more from the menu.“

“Came here not expecting much. Thought it would be just a regular taco place. I don't usually say , these are delicious tacos! But, hey these are really delicious tacos. We ordered flautas , they were perfectly fried, the crunch was crunching! The lettuce , guacamole, and queso fresco was fresh. The tacos de asada and lengua were flavorful and well seasoned. The agua de horchata tasted original not from a mix. Their flan and chocoflan was authentic and the cafe de olla was chef's kiss! My family and I will definitely be coming back! Reasonably priced and very clean ! Great polite and fast service!“

“Happy“

“Muy buenos los tacos, hoy dogs, militas, burritos. Todo muy bueno“

“I'm here at an amazing spot on hillhurst in Los Feliz across from Albertsons... A staple for Mexican foods for sure 💯 I had the carne asada burrito and it's just so bomb.. the burrito was HUGE. like ol' school huge 👌 probably the most authentic Ive had in 15+ years ❤️❤️❤️❤️ ... You need to come here like now! ...Also... A drink was included. 👌 Kudos El Ruso 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 ill totally be back for sure. 🧑‍🍳👩‍🍳👨‍🍳 🤗 ....aaaand I just had their tacos 👌 holeee shit. 🖖👌👌👌🙏❤️💯✂️ Get the tacos ❤️“

“highly recommend went to the one in Venice Beach. sooooooo good!!!“

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

“los tacos de cabeza son los mejores que he probado.Las salsas son muy ricas. El agua de jamaica deliciosa!!!!!“

“I always passed by here and assumed it wouldn't taste authentic and when I finally decided to stop by and test it out I was proven wrong. The Birria Torta tasted amazing and melts in your mouth. It has avocado in it with no extra charge and the price is very reasonable. It costs less than food truck. 10/10 would recommend.“

“some of the best tacos in town 😋🤍“

“Guisados is quality over quantity. Don't expect huge portions. That said the horchata was probably the best I've ever had. The eggs were fluffy, not overly cooked, potatoes had a lot of flavor, and salsa roja had a nice kick, but not overly spicy. First time here, and definitely won't be the last.“

“No need to add pictures here guys! Amazing food doesn’t need justification have to experience it! Let me start by letting everyone know that they let you make your OWN BURRITOS!! Who the hell let’s you do this? Not like chipotle acting like they do which isn’t even legit Mexican food.. ( At least not that I know ) they serve your protein on the tortilla and let you scoop out whatever else you would like, this-is insane !! Anyways my wife and I were so excited to try Tacos El Gordito after a horrible experience at el TAURINO! Tacos El Gordito TEAM has down to earth & genuine people, I could not believe they were here under this rain 😬 but were here to make us happy and serve their amazing tasting food. Btw if you like tripa and suadero please don’t hesitate! Its amazing!! Nether the less everything else…“

“The reason life is full of blessings and provides you with the will to live is because of these burritos and quesadillas. Your life will feel whole once these delicious Mexican recipes grace your palate—a piece you have been lacking since you were a young child. Although You should be aware that this is not an appropriate place to go on a first date because your date will fall in love with the food instead of you and wouldn't talk to you again unless you came here. To sum up, this Mexican restaurant is not to be taken lightly and ought to be regarded as one of the world's best five-star restaurants 🌎“

“Delicious chilaquiles. The Queca (quesadilla) was also phenomenal. Everything tastes homemade (which it is if you peer into kitchen when you go use restroom). To top it all off you can go to their bakery and grab something sweet. The 3 flavor concha was the best I’ve had.“

“My girlfriend and I live up the street and we walk here all the time. The food is amazing easily The best burritos I’ve ever had. I have to agree with everybody else the flank steak though is the best thing on the menu so good I recommend this place to anybody. The staff is amazing friendly and I never wanna eat tacos/burritos anywhere else“

“I hope this place is in business forever. I’ve been coming here since I was a kid. When I come visit my parents this is the only place I absolutely have to visit. The cockteles are
filled with seafood and done just right. I like that you can customize it with ketchup (why?!) and salsa (they have two types on the table: huichol and tapatio. Enough said!). There’s usually two older ladies in the back cooking. I wish they were my tias.“

“My mother and I stopped by for Taco Tuesday during the lunch rush, and we were pleasantly surprised. Despite the busy hour, we found seats quickly with almost no wait. The service was efficient, and everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. A great experience all around! Definitely worth coming back for!“

“Great tacos and service. My favorite taco stand in Los Angeles. If they could add black beans and green lemons (when I went there were only bay beans and yellow lemons) the business would be absolute perfection. Even without them they are excellent but it would be good to reach an incredible authentic level. May they continue to be successful!“

“Buenísimos las mejores carnitas“

“Omg, hands down the best tacos in the 626. And trust me, I’ve had my fair share from TJ Tacos to Tacos El Gordo in San Diego and even Taco El Franc. This spot is legit. The line every night says it all.

This time, I ordered the baked potato with cheese and lengua (tongue). Absolute perfection. They serve it with handmade corn tortillas that take everything to another level. The meats here are packed with flavor. My usual go-tos are the al pastor, cabeza (cow’s head meat), and tripas (beef intestine). Next visit, I’m eyeing the sausages, stomach, and carne asada.

And their salsa? To die for. It’s fresh, spicy, and ties everything together perfectly.

The team here is friendly and clearly takes pride in what they do. You can taste the care in every bite.

They’re parked right on San Gabriel Blvd with a solid setup. The ambiance is just right, and honestly, the only thing missing is some outdoor dining space.

Parking is free and easy on the street.“
