“Food was delicious, chilaquiles a bit spicy but that’s okay for me. They were not stingy, large servings. Only couple minutes away from LAX. We stopped to get breakfast before our flight out. 10/10 recommend
They did have one server which seems to be the norm per previous reviews. Seems like alot of work for one person but service was decent.
Also parking is to the left side of the building in the little parking area. Don’t be like me and drive up and down trying to figure it out.

Almost forgot! My only complaint would be the chairs. It’s most definitely a personal problem but I have a wider mid area and the chair was tight! I got through it but my sides were hurting.“

“Had lunch here yesterday, and all I can say is that my own Mama isn't Mexican, but if she were, I would want her to cook and serve the food they cook and serve here. My enchilada plate was super delicious. The woman at the table next to mine had chicken mole that made me want to order a second lunch. Their homemade salsa was so far from store-bought, it felt like I'd been invited into the chef/owner's home. I had to ask for extra because the first bowl didn't make it past the chips.“

“The BEAST Mexican restaurant ever. Family owned and operated. Been coming here for my whole life. Salsa veries in spiciness because it is made by hand everyday. The protein is always packed with flavor but not spicy. The burrito Supreme is my favorite, served wet. Please do yourself a favor and give this place a try!“

“Ordered a sope and two tamales. Everything was yummy. The sope came with salsa Which was unexpected, so if you don't want salsa make sure to mention that. I loved the salsa but the sope was supposed to be for my daughter who can't handle spicy yet. The carne asada in the sope was tender.“

“This was my first visit to LA and oh boy the food was DeeDamnLicious we were craving some mexi home cooking and this spot checked every box. I hear on the radio 95.5 people debating about the best tacos and this has to be the best in LA I got the Carne Asada plate and the Chicharrons and the in store freshly made tortillas I just felt right at home. Thank you to the staff and the fellow customers who were all friendly. LA is now a vacation spot of mine.

Parking: Parking was great plenty of it around the building now I’m sure it depends on the day and the time also no lingering around get what you need and eat what you eat and head on out make way for your fellow customers and staff.

Wheelchair accessibility: The door to access the restraint portion is in the back of the building with viable handicap parking.“

“I'm so glad I found this lil gem of a restaurant. Staff are amazing and courteous. Food is off the chain especially the Asada tacos that are made to order with freshly hand made tortillas and the hard shell tacos are not to shabby themselves. The place is small, but very welcoming. I'll advise you to try everything on the menu from burritos to mulitas and more. If you in the Hawthorne area and is in need of some delicious tacos. Please stop by Tacos El Guero MEX. You won't be disappointed.“
