“This place has the best carne asada street tacos I've ever had. The meat has so mich flavor its amazing not like the taco trucks with no flavor and you have to drench it with salsa. The meat also doesnt have alot of fat and bones etc which id important to me. Also they have really good fresh pineapple juice omg. I don't really like going there because there's always people sitting in their cars playing music smoking and hanging out and it's like going to tj..kinda shady for a white girl lol but the food Is amazing. Nachos are good too:)“
“This place is worth it the birria was really good it's kind of pricey but hey what isn't these days... I recommend it to anyone who loves real birria. They have everything you can think of and I'm in the Torrance area and I'm so glad I found this place“
“Been coming to this place for over 10 years and always for the breakfast burritos. It’s a hit or miss depending on who’s the cook but overall best burritos in the area. I called in ahead by the time I got there food was hit and ready. The cashier is a young girl she’s nice and friendly offers good service. They have other food like hamburgers and pancakes. Would definitely recommend for breakfast,lunch or dinner.Parking: Parking can be difficult to find during peak hours, but you can also find parking in the street along Normandie AveWheelchair accessibility: It’s wheel chair accessible you just need someone to help you open the door to get in“
“Solid spot for being down the street from me. 5:30pm opening is not really their opening as they take another 15-30 mins to finish prepping so ordering didn't begin til 6 pm. Long line but moves pretty fast as we were towards the back, and the salsa bar has a wide selection of choices. I tried every taco and split an Al pastor potato with my wife. The Al pastor is definitely the winner and the reason why the trompo caught my eye driving by the place a few times. The al pastor has good flavor, is juicy, and is not overcooked. The other highlights were the chicken, tripas & buche tacos, each had good flavor and cooked nicely. I'd skip the rest of the taco choices next time.“
“Expect a beach shack experience. Do not come here looking for a romantic setting or personal service. When you come in, you will get in a line and place an order. Drinks are ordered here as well. You can sit wherever you want and wait for your number to be called. You pick up your food and drinks from the counter. I think they have a great selection of seafood. I am super biased when it comes to Baja style shrimp tacos because I make my own and home, but this placed nailed it. They are not stingy with the protein and they are heavy with the toppings. The chipotle cream sauce is good but very spicy. Ceviche was awesome and again, plenty of protein on your tostada and a nice hefty serving of avocado. The miches were good! We had the chamoy mango and the tamarindo. You can order taco boxes and they also cater. Great selection of hot sauces.“
“As a devoted food lover, Dirt Dog- Gardena, is a Southern California experience worth savoring.From the moment you step inside, you're greeted by a striking large wall mural of the Legends of West Coast Hip Hop, adding to the laid-back vibe that California is known for.The menu boasts a tantalizing array of options, from bacon wrapped hot dogs to birria tacos to fried Oreos! But when in doubt, you simply can't go wrong with a classic dirty dog and a side of filthy fries. Each bite is a flavor explosion that leaves you craving more.Refreshing beer on tap perfectly complements the bold flavors of the food and adds an extra layer of enjoyment to the dining experience.Overall, Dirt Dog in Gardena is a must-visit destination for any food lover in Los Angeles. With its inviting atmosphere, delicious food, and refreshing drinks, it's the perfect spot to indulge in a taste of the West Coast.I HIGHLY RECOMMEND“
“We ordered Tamales from here for the holidays and they were absolutely delicious! Great flavor with just enough spice. The server was extremely friendly and got our order fast. Not to mention they were super hot so it tasted so fresh. We were able to freeze some as well for later. We can't wait to go back to try other food!“
“Enjoyed a relaxing outdoor brunch at this popular Mexican restaurant in the Torrance Hollywood Riviera. We picked a nice corner spot with partial shield under the umbrella. It’s a dog friendly restaurant but we wanted to be away from others with our young puppy.The food came fairly quickly, we highly recommend the Octopus Ceviche if you like octopus. I had the Wednesday Burrito special, and my wife had two tacos specials with Asadas. Both were delicious.Our server, Anthony, was prompt and friendly, multiple other servers stopped by multiple times made you feel welcome and made sure we have what we needed.Parking: Parking: a bit of hit and miss in this popular district, once you find a street parking spot, I recommend using the QR code and pay electronically, it’s relatively painless. Another person tried to mess with the meter and sometimes the screen is hard to read, especially under the sun.“
“If you’re ever in the Southbay in LA do yourself a favor and source this seafood gem. It’s ALWAYS busy and I don’t like waiting in line but I will here. The benefit of seafood being fresh is because they sell enough that it’s always excellent. There providers must love the account and take good care of them.Okay, ceviche is a must do with tostada chips, avocado and a slew of hot sauces and a self serve salsa station that also offers marinated white onion ribbons and wonderful whole roasted yellow chiles dusted with a red tangy red spice.Tacos come with a variety of seafood options, I suggest the battered fish as a beginning test since you will come back for them anytime you go again, just trust this.Prices are reasonable and the staff are very happy, why not, everyone eating there are friggin happy too. Parking can be a buzzkill but you’ll figure it out.“
“By far the best califries you can get and the best churros.Califries are amazing cause you can pick 2 meats.They have a wonderful bean and cheese burrito. I enjoy that they have pickled carrots and jalapeño, beans, cucumber and a variety of salsas.“
“One of the Best Al pastor in town!Corn tortillas are made on the spot, huge al pastor meat roasting on the spot. I love all their green & red salsa, red salsa def have a kick, but it's good if you like it spicy. Their burritos and quesadillas are also good, huge! Great service, friendly staffs, line goes by pretty quickly, just be patient, worth the wait.They take cash & zelle.Follow on IG to get updated times and locations through out so cal.“
“I have been coming to Joliza's since they opened and I am pleased to say they still have excellent food and service. Had the beef cheek tacos with an horchata today, but I've tried everything on the menu. Tacos were packed with juicy meat and the horchata was so creamy. The owner topped off my horchata while I was eating, which was so nice. It's little service touches like that that keep me coming back. Tho tbh I think I'd still go back if they were rude because that's how tasty it is.“
“After running an errand in the area, G's popped up on Yelp and it did not disappoint. Conveniently located in a plaza with plenty of parking, G's was not hard to find. Upon entering, it was plenty busy for 11am on a rainy day (a good sign.) I was pleasantly surprised they offered $1.25 tacos for Taco Tuesday ! In addition, they offer this special on Thursdays and Sundays! I ordered two asada and two al pastor tacos. After ordering, I helped myself to the salsa/condiment bar which had many of the usual suspects (red, green and an avo salsa along with limes.) The tacos came out freshly cooked and were served on heated yellow corn tortillas. The meats were well seasoned and topped with onions, cilantro and red sauce. I've been on a taco crawl all over LA the past few years and these rival some of the best around. While scarfing down my tacos, I was looking over the handwritten whiteboard menu and noticed that they offered complimentary consome. How awesome is that?! This along with the fact I skipped dinner the night before prompted me to order two birria tacos which along with the consome totally hit the spot . Safe to say I will be returning again and again!“
“Amazing tacos, esp. the Baja fish and turkey carnitas!Attentive service -- they always ask the preferred level of hotness.Definitely a take-out place -- the 2 tables outside are kinda perfunctory...The only issue is they are no longer opened for dinner!“
“Everything here was chef’s kiss! My visit was in person and I ordered the Beets Me Burger! The Beets Me burger was so delicious and I loved the fact that it was made from mushrooms and beets. The flavor was amazing and the brioche bun was nicely toasted. I ordered the Biscuit Bomb and through UberEats and it is The Bomb! The biscuit was nice and soft and all of the flavors paired well together. The Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup did not disappoint! I will definitely be back for another visit whenever I’m in this area!“
“Nice little casual place to grab a bite. You order your food at the food truck window and can go into a separate building to sit down. Tacos were tasty and the best part was having different topping options, a couple salsas, pickled onions, Cilantro, Radish, cucumber etc. We were on our way from Orange County up to the Bay Area and wanted to eat quickly to keep driving. Glad we stopped here as it was really close off the freeway.Carne asada and al pastor tacos were delicious. Also tried the suadero but they weren't really my thing. Would come again!“
“The salmon at California Fish Grill is always the best, but I think another thing that I like is the street corn and the zucchini. my go to spot for healthy food and you can never go wrong with it. in this location the inside has a really cool minimalistic vibe which makes for a really nice nightParking: Easy parking but you definitely have to come at the right time“
“First time eating here was delicious ? great ? taste ? on my food tostadas de camarón ? where fire ?.. my boyfriend fish ? tacos ? where fire ? as well .. my shrimp ? cocktail ? was tasty ?… I would definitely recommend it .. there’s plenty of parking ?️ the agua fresca de jamaica so yummy ?…“
“This was my first time trying this place. I decided to try their quesabirria with consume. To me it was sure good i enjoyed every bite of it with red salsa and lemon squeezed in my broth and sure did the dip on the quesabirria. Very crunchy was just good. Sure will be going to visit in person.“
“In town from Texas, and these might be the best pastor tacos I've had in a very long time.. So good I came back the next day. Good prices, the red salsa is delicious, all the right condiments, cebolla, cilantro, rabano, ? the horchata was very refreshing, and they made our order super fast ? Def coming back on future trips to LA (AND THEYRE OPEN LATE!!)“
“Shore Grille offers a delightful dining experience with their nice, hot, juicy burgers that are sure to satisfy any burger lover. The waffle fries are fresh with just the right amount of crispiness, making them the perfect side. The restaurant itself is very clean and inviting, creating a pleasant atmosphere for enjoying a meal. One exciting addition is their new cocktail menu, which adds a fun twist to your dining experience. However, during my visit, the service was a bit slow despite the restaurant not being busy. Despite this, our waiter was very nice and made sure we were taken care of. Overall, Shore Grille is a great spot for a tasty burger and a relaxed dining experience.“
“Absolutely delicious and great service! You can pick two meats in a burrito which was music to my ears and my carne asada and el pastor burrito was amazing (and huge). If you are in the area, stop here, and apparently you can order ahead as well.“
“I stopped by this evening with my sister in law after a Dr. Appt down the street when putting gas I could smell the cooking. I ordered 3 tacos and champurado basic of asada my sister n law ordered 2 de tripas and 1 lengua and a large jaimica. Wow the food was really really delicious like it was made from your home kitchen very tasteful. The service was very fast and they were polite and helpful. I am definitely coming back even though I'm about 30 min away it's worth it. They are located on Redondo and Vermount Gardena.“
“As someone from San Diego I always claimed our tacos are better but this food truck changed my mind. This is the best food truck for tacos and they are super affordable. every time I'm in LA I will make sure to drive down to Long Beach just to get to them fireeeee!“
“Finally tried this spot out a few months back and it's now a 3-4 visits/month kinda place for us. Food is fresh, hot, not greasy, and not over salted. Love their fresh corn tortillas, portions are solid, salsas are on point, and service is friendly and efficient!“
“Great, quick spot for Mexican food in Hermosa Beach! Got the Asada Nachos for only $11.50. The nachos came with plenty of meat, cheese, guacamole, and salsa. Some of the best nachos I've had in awhile and for a price you can't beat!“
“Wow! Sunday live music 12-3 PM. Delicious mole sampler and pozole hit the spot! Great atmosphere! Attentive staff! It was even more special as it was Dia de Los Muertos season and they had a beautiful ofrenda display. This restaurant I will recommend to friends visiting L.A. A+ all around.“

“It was a rainy Sunday and I went in my FAMILY group, for Some of us it was out first time, everyone ordered different food and it was all delicious!! everyone of their staff was very friendly and accommodating we are definitely returning soon and we can't wait for summer to sit in their outside patio!!“
“Their fried fish tacos are 10/10. The batter is perfect and it comes with avo, radish, and pickled carrots and cucumbers. I think it's better than Ensenada's on Artesia, and that place is already sets the bar high for me. Worth a visit and don't forget to give the fruta lady down the street some love too.“
“Nice local place good food and drinks at a reasonable price. Great place to watch the games. The staff is very friendly. I had the Barbacoa Quesadilla that was very good. They have a private room for parties of business you can book. Great place to hangout and meet the locals.“
“This was my first time trying this place. I decided to try their quesabirria with consume. To me it was sure good i enjoyed every bite of it with red salsa and lemon squeezed in my broth and sure did the dip on the quesabirria. Very crunchy was just good. Sure will be going to visit in person.“
“Delicious casual local spot! We got the enchiladas, tacos (birria were the best), tamales, and horchata. The owner was very friendly and patient with our limited Spanish. Indoor seating for ~15 and outdoor tables for ~10 people. Would highly recommend!!“
“Best taco and food truck in Compton, Los Angeles county period! Fantastic ? and great customer service, humble attitudes and very polite ? and most of all..... good prices for so much amount of food, you can't beat the prices anywhere.... plentiful ? peace to all cultures and have a great dayPositive energy activates constant elevation!!!✌️“
“From first to the last bite is so good. I've been looking for a place that serves biria tacos with consomme and not just a place but the one that is not disappointing. And as I was passing by hermosa I saw their sign. And it was as good as they advertise “
“Stopped in the area for a quick bite. I ordered 3 carne asada street tacos with onions & cilantro. The order process was quick since there wasn't anyone but a couple sitting in the place. It took roughly 4 minutes for me to get my tacos. It was really quick. I'd give the tacos 4/5. They satisfied my want for street tacos although the meat seemed a little dry. However, they did give me chips and the stuff that comes with birria, so eating the tacos with that was good! The ambiance was very casual. It looked cleaned in the restaurant and the bathrooms were also clean. I would come back here again if no other place was open to eat.“
“I do not know you, have never ate their.I read on the news your kindness in helping an elderly woman being attacked and robbed. You were badly hurt trying to help a stranger. I wish we had more people like you!!Get well soon, and God Bless.Floyd“

“We got to meet Juan! He is amazing! Not only did he make us feel so welcome. He broke the menu down for us and showed great hospitality! One top of that the tacos, pastor and asada (what we've tried so far) are truly out of this world! Salsas made in house. & they cater! We will be back.“
“Evelyn is so sweet and she really does work hard and make the customers food come out fast and efficient. Alma always has a smile on her face and is so pleasant and accommodating and Jorge is very down to earth and makes the customers feel like family. They are a good Management team and their staff is so friendly!Evelyn is very sweet and really works hard to make customers' food come out quickly and efficiently.

“My coworkers had recommended this place after watching a Netflix documentary and let me tell you the story behind the restaurant is very heart warming. The food on the other is belly warming. If you come here the must is the carnitas tacos. Duh, simply the meat very tender and not fatty and the portions are big. I had two tacos and you can definitely make 4 with them and double it. The winner on the other hand I would say is the mafita. Pure hot cheesy mixed meat goodness. It's a giant carnitas taco with mixed meat with cheese. I don't think there's anything else I can say about this place. The other reviews speak for themselves but do watch the special about this place before you go. I definitely will recommended and come back to this place.“
“Very delicious. I ordered the Chile Relleno, and it was very good. The sauce was hearty, and homestyle. Very nice quaint place to have a pleasant memory if you're not on the run. I took it to go on my lunch hour. The staff is very friendly, and helpful. Very polite. great service, and great food. Look forward to trying more dishes! Highly recommended. Muy buena cocina, y muy amable el personal. Gracias por el buen servicio! Delicioso el chile relleno.“
“Bomb mariscos. Me encanto! Botana el plebe is soooo delicious and well seasoned and the salsa negra is very very tasty and perfectly spicy. Must try this. I've gone twice and the second time was even better. Agua de limon was perfect. Addicting! My friend had a coctel de camarón and birria tacos, she gave it 2 thumbs up.“
“It's rather amusing that I worked about 10 minutes away from Top Shelf for 19 years and it wasn't until I retired a few years back that I finally made it here. I was across the street at Scottsdale quite often to visit the parents of "challenging" students but never realized a gastronomic paradise was waiting across the street. Man oh man, I had been missing out. I ordered the Al Pastor burrito wet and let me tell you, it was delicious. Not a huge burrito but a generous amount of food. The sauce was flavorful and I appreciated the fact it had just the right amount of salt unlike the majority of the other places I've frequented lately. It was the best burrito I've had in ages. My wife's protein bowl with shrimp met with her satisfaction and happily had a decent quantity of shrimp unlike many other Mexican restaurants we've gone to recently. I ordered the strawberries and cream dessert but was too full to eat it so it will have to wait until later. The staff was incredibly kind and helpful. No complaints about service whatsoever. The shopping center has more than enough parking so that isn't an issue. I'm not sure I would visit at night unless you feel safe going into an area with its fair share of troublemakers in the area after dark though. Top Shelf turned out to be just as advertised. I only wish I had tried them much further back in time. I would have made better use of the time I had when I was working in the area.“
“Went here for a business lunch, had the squash tacos which were a very tasty vegetarian option. They were accommodating of our ~15 person group last minute, helping to move tables on the patio together for us. Got food out in a reasonable amount of time for our large group.“
“What a fantastic Yelp find! La Taqueria Brand is well-deserving of their 4.5 stars!! First of all this place is very clean and has a nice indoor eating area and a nice outdoor eating area. You can come inside and order, order from the outside window or go through the drive-up window. They have an amazing salsa bar with avocado salsa, raw salsa, fire roasted tomatillo, habanero salsa, pickled jalapeños, cucumbers, pinto beans, grilled jalapeños and grilled onions - and all were excellent. On to the food. All the food that we had here was spectacular! The lady taking our order recommended the Canajillo Shrimp Burrito ($13.99) which is a hot flour tortilla, wonderfully seasoned Mexican rice, shredded white cheese, cabbage, pick de gallo, cilantro crema & smoked adobo mustard dressing - and it was out of this world! My girlfriend got the Lt Plato ($10.99) which was your choice of protein (she got asada), rice, refried beans, lettuce, pico de gallo & crema - and it too was spectacular! I couldn't resist the homemade Horchata ($5.50) which was one of the best I've ever had. She also gave us a Micheagus ($7.00) drink which was amazing. We also got their homemade Churros ($7.50) They were soft and donut like inside and crispy outside...and these actually were the best churros I have ever had - and I don't say that lightly, they were legit the best I've EVER had! I can't believe how good this entire meal was! I had to do this review right away because I do t want forget this place next time I'm in Wilmington. Well done La Taqueria Brand - we will definitely be back!! I really want to try their Birria Ramen ($13.99) which looks like a very innovative crossover.“
“?✨ Just had the grilled cheese birria at La Cosina de Yesi, and it's a game-changer! The combination of melted cheese and savory birria is heavenly. Plus, the customer service was top-notch – friendly and efficient. A must-try for both the delicious food and fantastic service!“
“I'm from Aotearoa NZ and I loved the food, service and down to earth atmosphere here. The variety of drinks was a delightful experience with my burrito, if I could eat meat I would've tried a few things to quinch my curiosity. Yummy!“
“Best pizza in town, in my opinion. I always come here for 3 slices of pizza,the pizza tastes better than Little Caesars, my opinion. Great service. The slices are descent and can't beat the price per slice of pizza unless you go to Costco, but why drive so far of your close to this great pizza spot.“
“Awesome fish tacos (chicharrón de pescado, smoked tuna or Zarandeando). They open at 8am on Sundays and their breakfast B.E.T. burrito is delicious. They have several vegan options (bowls, tacos and burritos). Parking is easy, and there's plenty of street parking. Live music on Fridays afternoon. Great for kids and also pet-friendly.“
“I am prefacing this review by stating the I just stopped by here for a quick drink (no food) as I was checking out the The Point, the shopping a mall that contains Lil' Simmzy's.I at first did not realize they actually serve some of their own beers, but once I saw that I went with their Hazy IPA option. Along with that I also got a cocktail, the Paloma. The beer was pretty good, standard along with most the other Hazy IPA's that I've had. I'll say that this one was a little less hoppy than others I've had. The Paloma was one of the better ones I have tasted. It's made with mezcal instead of the usual tequila, so you can taste that "smokey" difference which I find people either enjoy or don't. I like the ancho salt rim on the drink, both for taste & look.Service was pretty good and the place has a relaxed beachy vibe and nice overall feel. I think it's all outside seating which is fitting for the overall vibe and works well for being in the The Point. Ordered at the counter and self seated. I'd come here again to sip on a drink while I take a break from shopping.The only one, somewhat larger, somewhat understandable downfall was the amount of dust at the table. When I grabbed a napkin, I noticed how dirty my hands got just from touching it due to the amount of dust/dirt in general at the table since it's outside seating.Cheers!“
“Just do yourself a favor and taste for yourself. The handmade tortillas are amazing and I'd say the tacos here are full of flavor. Maybe the bad/mediocre reviews are from people who over salt all their meals? The al pastor and asada are spot on every time I come here.“
