“Food was really delicious and fresh. I ordered the potato and cheese taquitos, sweet potato taco and Baja fish taco. The cucumber radish slaw and habanero onions really elevated the fish taco. To drink I had the passion fruit margarita. Tuesday during happy hour offered great deals. Josh, was very friendly and helpful as a server.“

“Overall it was good , female bartender very nice Taller gentlemen very nice JT, most everyone , very nice welcoming , bareback or guy behind bar gave off a uncomfortable vibe , his facial expressions told the story , if he treated any of my customers like that I would fire him , I didn't eat since my appetite was destroyed by guys horrible vibe , he was very nice to 2 women giving them drinks but when 1 of them offered me her shot , the look on the bartender guy was angry , my 1st time there so his actions where for nothing NOT GOOD SPOT I WOULDNT GO BACK“

“Unbelievably good! Exceptional quality. Hubs had the filet taco & pork belly taco. I had the ribeye quesadilla with AHM. Very generous quantities and SO GOOD. We’ll be back soon. I need to try EVERYTHING.“

“Taco Nazo on Alondra has a lot going on. They have the restaurant where you can sit and dine, the express take-out next door and the drive-thru. The line inside the restaurant was a bit long, but it went at a reasonable pace. You order first and then get seated.

I highly recommend the taco combo which is at a reasonable price. It comes with either 2-3 tacos, rice, refried beans, chiles güeros, chips, salsa and a soda. The shrimp tacos were my favorite followed closely by the fish tacos. Next time I go, I'll ask for the mayo sauce that accompany the fish tacos on the side because I felt the flavor overpowered the flavor of the fish. The salsa that came with the chips was so flavorful and the red salsa on the table complimented the tacos so well. All in all it was great.

Next time I'll try the Garvey location.

Wheelchair accessibility: It's easily accessible to get into the restaurant, but parking might be an issue. Go with enough time and not a rush hours for lunch or dinner.“

“Possibly the best and freshest Mexican style seafood in LA Think fine from a James Beard award winning chef and kitchen on the very casual setting of a food court It’s busy so get in early as the line to order grows quickly Plenty of parking with extra space at rear of the car park for the overflow This is a must try if you are in the area“

“My friend and I heard about a special type of chili Relleño that was topped with a walnut sauce and pomegranate seeds. It is called chili en nogada. They have it here, and it was spectacular. The special ingredients compliment each other. The staff were all so pleasant and helpful. We sat outside where they have a beautiful garden with fruit trees. including pomegranate, passion, and avocados. I've added a picture of the chili cut in half. Must try!“

“Delicioso, es como estar en Sinaloa“

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

“Me and my son and my daughter had breakfast there in the atmosphere was great the staff was really friendly it was like a home away from home and we enjoyed every minute of it thank you so much I live up the street and we'll be coming back here at least once a week for sure!!!?❣️“

“Despite reading some negative reviews from a long time back, I took the gamble of visiting this restaurant and giving it a chance. This was my experience. Service was excellent, food came out quick despite attending a big party celebrating a birthday.

If you're looking for somewhere tasteful, cozy and welcoming that will provide you with quality delicious food and excellent customer service. Look no further if you live or are visiting the South East area in the city of Maywood.

This is my 2nd time visiting this overlooked hidden gem; which I still can't believe it's been here since 2019 and stopped by until now. I have NO regrets visiting and dining at "Rajas con Crema".

This restaurant was welcoming, cozy, ambiance was delightful, customer service was on point!. Thank you for the awesome experience Javier and Staff.

On my first visit, I had their rib eye steak and garlic shrimp with seasoned veggies and mashed potatoes, and delicious warm soft toasted bolillo bread. Also had their (Mollete) which was soft, beans were very homely made and chorizo sprinkled throughout.

Today's visit, I came for breakfast and had their steak and eggs, Cafe de ollá and my partner ordered chilaquiles con carnitas. Both dishes were exquisite, Cafe de Ollá was delicious, customer service was awesome with attention to customer.

I am definitely coming back, not overhyping anything but, usually it's not common or typical to visit a restaurant and have a great all around experience in customer service and food quality tastiness ??.

If you're in the area, definitely check this hidden gem out and give them a try, and try their various delicious dishes, no regrets!. ?“

“Seriously the best enchilada sauce ever!“

“I've been coming here for over a year now and they never disappoint. My husband and I love the breakfast burrito. I like that they put tater tots in the burrito instead of hash browns because the potatoes are super crispy. The owner already knows what I am going to order when I walk in. That says a lot as well! More people need to come try this place it is really good and the service is always amazing! Will be back soon!!!“

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

“Best Torta place ever ???? our family has been enjoying the entire menu from the last 28+ years and Tortas are the bomb ? from a typical and traditional ham and cheese to succulent and delicious creations like Sonidera, Cubana, Azteca, Hawaiiana. A big menu available to delight your senses! Stop by and have one or two, make your tummy happy ?

Parking: Kind of difficult to find parking, honestly,best thing to do, order by phone and pick up.“

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

“Muy buenos taco’s deliciosos“

“Alex! it's obvious you've never been to Don Ruben's Mexican food! The food is good the customer service is good I have no complaints I'm giving it a five-star review prices are excellent you can ask for more there's nothing fishy about it you need to get out and try something and if a place is good of course they're going to have all good reviews I feel sorry for you never seen a good place or tasted good Mexican food and I'm 100% Mexican so get out some try something new unless you're from another nearby restaurant trying to put a negative spin on something but don't revenge is excellent five stars for sure!“

“Excellent food, as always, but in our last two visits, the cochinita tacos were served on cold tortillas. Had to return them to be heated...

Had to walk twice to the counter to get refills of our Maya coffees... ...unusual. Usually, they refill your coffee at your table while eating...

The cochinita plate, the trio yucateco and the coffee were delicious. Best in many many miles around.“

“Me encantan los tacos y burritos de cabeza.“

“I've never written a review but I have to write one for Tito's. Quite simply the best breakfast burrito I've had! I'm completely hooked! I get the machaca with chorizo and cheese. Huge burrito and just ridiculously delicious! Thank You Tito's!“

“Good food, friendly and fast service.“

“Absolutely the best tacos de chicharrón. All meats are fantastic too. And always fresh ingredients.“

“Best Birria spot ever hands down!!! I am a loyal customer I go here faithfully anytime I’m in Los Angeles. I have yet to find a better Birria spot. The food here is delicious and they have great prices, the horchata is good as well. Thank you Birria Esquivel!“

“I really enjoyed this place. The atmosphere was great and the food was delicious. This was my first time here but definitely won’t be my last. My hubby had the menudo. He said it was heavenly. I had a veggie quesadilla that was very good. I also had a cheese enchilada (which was average). The also have a small parking lot which is always a plus.“

“So delicious! Many selections for all palettes!“

“Decent menu, food is always good, fresh, and tasteful. Pricing gets $$$ out of 5. It's not the cheapest but well worth every dime. I enjoy the homemade tortillas, Avilas chicken soup, crispy tacos (shredded beef), and the traditional flan. For the most part the staff is very friendly and attentive. Parking can be a little tight during the busy hours, but that's not a reason to not come back and visit again with the family and / or my friends.“

“Very Friendly the food was delicious“

“muy buena comida y exelente servicio“

“I’ve been to this place 4-5 times with an empty stomach and by far, the food has always been delicious and worth it. I always get the Perro taco and it’s pretty stacked and good. The pricing for the combos are pretty fair and leaves you full but not super bloated full. The reviews below have mentioned stale chips in their combos but mine were fine.“

“We came here after watching several videos on YouTube and it was worth it. Thanks for everything. The food at El Gallito was delicious but the waiter really made our experience very special. We are going back because we saw some more things to bring us
By the way, we traveled 2 hours (we are near Bakersfield)“

“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 service was great and food was serve quick and delicious Sebastian gave us great service thank you!“
