“I came here one day just after my lil one's dance class. We had the nicest time here, dined in. Our food was made to order and it was freshly prepared. We tried a few new items and the lil one loved them. One of them was the cinnamon roll bites. The staff were so sweet to my lil monster and they made sure to wipe down our table and seats before we settled down. They also talked to my munchkin and made simple chat conversation with 'em. It was very sweet.“
“A friend booked a dinner for our work event on a rain night. Our driver dropped us off at the wrong place, but they were happy to point us to the right spot across the parking lot river.Ultimately, it was a great choice. A small menu that is meant to be shared, we asked our waiter to decide for us, and we were not disappointed.Including drinks for 6 people and tip the night came out at around $800. Worth it.“
“Walking into Mírate transported me into a zone of lush relaxation accompanied by great food and service. From the second we sat down, Logan welcomed us aboard this pallet joinery enjoying flavors from Mexico. His energy and helpfulness in deciding what to drink and eat made our dining experience a dream. He even brought over Max, the Mezcal expert, to share with us some amazing stories behind each of our drink choices. 100% recommend coming here and asking for Logan to be your server.“
“Seafood incredibly fresh and service was great. There were some times where the staff forgot to get us our drinks but that wasn’t a big deal. The food was delicious but on the pricier side. Been told to reserve for dinner course experience so maybe that was what I was missing out on. For a lunch experience, it was nice but pricier than I expected.Best item was the kanpachi uni tostada“
“My husband is from India, so we have eaten a lot of flavorful foods. We both thoroughly enjoyed our meal here. We ordered the five taco plate and sides of corn, mom‘s beans, the vegetarian beans, potatoes with chorizo, corn, and rice. We also tried the coconut rose milk lime drink, and the cucumber salad . My husband, especially like the jeera chicken and corn. I loved the Carne Asada and goat tacos. The green sauce is fabulous. The fresh house made corn tortillas also really take the tacos to the next level. We really enjoyed our meal here. Kudos to the owners for taking such an interesting fusion risk and executing it well.“
“We are regulars and though we come in scruffy from work, the staff treat us like royalty. Food is gourmet Mexican with always a unique twist with layers of subtle flavor. This ain't no taco truck so crack open the wallet but worth it. Love you guys!“
“A beautiful date night spot where you can sit beneath string lights nestled in an alleyway, listening to live music (plus, they have outdoor heaters!). Plates are tapas style and the bar is full, with an advantage for mezcal enthusiasts. Bonus- The wait staff is knowledgeable and friendly. They recommended some drinks for us to try and gave us some suggestions on the entrees. The drinks were great and we recommend the sea bass! Nice atmosphere with good service and lots of mezcal.“
“I was uncomfortable with the place down the street. It looked rowdy. Javi told us to try this place. He said it's been here over 10 years. I wish I knew about this place sooner. It's a hidden gem.They have a huge indoor seating area, cafeteria style. There's restrooms.We paid $120 for two botanas, a dozen oysters, 6 shrimp tacos, two tostadas, and three drinks. Yum. Sorry! We were hungry, forgot to take before pictures. ?“
“Such a cute little wine bar in the heart of DTLA! My friend and I decided to catch up over early dinner here. We ordered the coldbrew martini and the non-alcoholic prosecco. We also shared the caesar salad, meatballs, piquillo peppers, and the margherita flatbread. Everything was delicious and tasty. We were pleased with everything we ordered. There's indoor and outdoor seating available. Our service was efficient. There is no free parking available, but we paid to park in a lot nearby.“
“Best fish tacos on the east side. Could eat them once a week. Made to order from a taco truck so sometimes you have to wait a bit. Wish they were there later but great for an early dinner or lunch. My favorite is the recommended shrimp and cheese one and soft shell crab“
“Loreto lived up to my expectations in every aspect. Last minute they were able to accommodate an extra guest for our table, which was much appreciated! Our server (I forget her name, so sorry!) was so attentive and helpful; we had a gluten allergy and she was able to let us know on the spot which dishes had gluten and which didn't. We were coursed so well, with all of the ceviches and tostadas arriving first, followed by hot dishes. For a group of five, we ordered: -3 Oysters Preparado -yellowtail sashimi -Aguachiles Rojo -Leche de Tigre -Bay Scallop ceviche -Tostada a la Joaquin -Tostada Kondo -Tostada Bang Bang! -Camote Horneado -Mar-Esquites -Empanadas de Camaron -Albondigas de Camaron. My favorites of the night were the Aguachiles Rojo, Tostada Kondo and the Albondigas; however the shining star of the night was the Tostada a la Joaquin. The aquachiles was perfectly spicy and fresh with a lot of umami- I could eat 3 servings of this!! Tostada Kondo was also fresh and the scallops were so soft and buttery. The albondigas were an excellent hot dish to share and the green curry they were served in was flavorful and bright. The oysters and yellowtail to start were also excellent. The Tostada a la Joaquin was absolutely perfect; the otoro melted in your mouth and the yuzu vinaigrette was perfectly rich to compliment the tuna. Everyone was so impressed by this dish. The Leche de Tigre and Camote Horneado fell a bit flat for me, but were still enjoyable alongside the other dishes. We had a round of drinks; I ordered the Todos Santos Milkpunch and loved it. Everyone enjoyed their drinks as well! I took not one photo (which is rare for me) because the food and company was so good. We had so much fun here and will return so soon!!“
“Really delicious food. Tiny outside eating area. Valet parking, which is good because this isn't a neighborhood where you'd like to be walking around at night getting to your car.Kid-friendliness: NoWheelchair accessibility: Yes“
“We are from Brazil and happened to find this amazing spot in LA. Absolutely worth the wait. We suggest that you try both corn in the cup and in the spike. I’m pretty sure we will have dreams about it. Super tasty, soft and crunchy at the same time… thank you, Corn Man!“
“Every time I've eaten here it's been delicious! I've been coming here since i was a toddler, many moons ago. This was the go to place for all the "Tia's" for tamale making get - togethers.Across the street, LA Gloria, they would buy the "maza" for the tamales fests. Great times. I don't make tamales anymore but i surely do go for the tacos and work Pot Lucks/Holiday work celebrations. It's not far from work. I give this 5 STARS!!!“
“I was in the downtown LA area & came across this small place. It was absolutely amazing! Probably one of the tastier tacos I’ve had in LA. I liked how the tortillas were very simple, homemade & thin. I ordered two steak & two chorizo tacos. They were both really good but the steak was delicious. Compared to other taco spots I’ve been to in LA, this steak was cooked well & had a great flavor. I went back & ordered more of the steak tacos because they were that good! The staff were very nice & welcoming, & the inside had a nice chill atmosphere. Will definitely be back!“
“Best Carnitas in town!! I been going to el momo for 6 years and it’s the best!!! Just go try it! You’re not going to regret it ?????? it’s a family owned restaurant and the carnitas are the best!! Thank you to el Momo Family for the delicious carnitas ?????????“
“I ordered all of each tacos: Asada, Adobada, Pollo, Chorizo, Mushroom with Cebollitas with Aqua Fresca and it was the bomb! My boyfriend ordered Papa Loka with Adobada with Guacamole with Jamaica. I took a taste test and it was good and huge! Enough to share with two people.Vegetarian options: They have mushrooms tacos which are my favorite for vegan eaters.Parking: Come early to get a spot in front of the restaurant.Kid-friendliness: You can take your kids to eat here.“
“Authentic street style tacos in an authentic atmosphere, tried more than one of each meat and everything hits the spot. The Horchata was fantastic and refreshing after a good meal.Would try a burrito or quesadilla from here on my next visit!“
“This is a place where you eat amazing food and see art. It is family friendly and has many food choices. Their art exhibit are amazing. Currently until May 6, they have an exhibit centering Palestinian women. The artwork and stories are spectacular. Everybody should go see it.“
“Horchata was bomb. Tacos are small usually its two tortillas and spill-over meat makes a second. Tortillas were somewhat undercooked. Other than being small gourmet playhouse looking portions it was good. It was more once in a lifetime kinda meal not beefy hearty get full go to work filling kinda meal. Its more like a Go alone buy a second round of the sampler kind of meal. Its pricey but worth it.Parking: Dont wear plaid or red or blue. There was a face tattoo guy leaving the parking lot.“
“This place had amazing tacos made from scratch. I ordered the mole and shredded beef taco and neither disappointed. There is plenty of room here with both indoor and outdoor seating. The outdoor area has a large mural on the outside walls of LA themes. Super unique and yummy place to visit. Plus, the prices are reasonable for the places popularity.Parking: Small parking lot but lots of street parking.“
“Stopped by for a quick snack since I saw this place on YouTube. Got the Goat Birria and an Asada tacos, both were great. Full of queso and real delicious. Lemonada con Chia was no overly sweet and refreshing on a hot afternoons. Worth the stop come check it “
“Great place to experience some new flavor combos. Service was top notch, but for us the flavors were a little dull. Maybe a case of having too high of expectations going in, but the street corn pasta dish was very underwhelming. We wouldn’t have known what it was going for. Again, food was still delicious, maybe worth another shot to try the rest of the menu.“
“My favorite taco place. Please blow this place up so it can survive!!! It’s in a slightly difficult place due to the traffic at that intersection but the food is sooooooo good and the workers are all so friendly. Cute space inside and out. Get your tacos/burrito gogo “
“Family owned and operated truck located in Boyle Heights / East LA area that specializes in tacos arabes and goodies from Puebla in general. The tacos arabes were a result of Lebanese immigrants to the area and boy are they delicious. I came here later on a Thursday night so it wasn't very busy and it was pretty chill. Just a few other people around me. The folks here were friendly and helpful. I ordered:A taco arabe especiale- their signature taco with their marinated roast pork on this soft flower tortilla. This was topped Oaxacan cheese and slices of avocado (especiale). There was this chipotle sauce on top of everything. The sauce added some smokiness to an already great flavor and texture profile. I really liked that flour tortilla. Quesadilla de flor de calabaza - zucchini blossoms with melted Oaxacan cheese inside a blue corn tortilla. Love corn and I love this. Nice and chewy with earthy and slightly sweet flavors to go along with their delicious salsaDefinitely recommend for tacos/ quesadillas etc etc or if you are just in the mood for something a little different.“
“This place is the #1 thing I miss about living in Los Angeles. Pro tip, buy 2 fish tacos, they each come with 2 tortillas. Leave the outer tortilla on your plate. The tacos are so generously stuffed that enough will fall out on your empty tortilla to make another taco!“
“Food is really good you won't be disappointed just the parking & the seats are so so .Vegetarian options: Well you have beans , guacamole , rice , salsas on a handmade tortilla is pretty good .Dietary restrictions: I myself don't eat beef I'm a chicken fella myself . I love a pair of chicken tacos on handmade tortillas with guacamole feel good & not greasy either with a touch of salsa .“
“We live in Ventura but stopped by after my postoperative surgery appointment.. all I can say is AMAZING! The cafe de olla and Charro eggs are delicious! We will definitely be back if we're ever in the area! Their service is extraordinary! It's so rare to find exceptional customer service! Very kind and attentive“

“This institution is still beloved by the community and beyond. As heard by customers chatting each other up in line to compare their love for this spot, people come from far away to have their bean and cheese burrito or their favorites they've been coming back for since they were young. It's solid and filling. Find the combo that works for you. Just to note, their classic bean and cheese is soft and is so hot, it's hard to eat it right off the bat so you might have to use utensils but it works. It'll cool down and you can eventually sop up the rest. Have some napkins handy.“
“you MUST visit this spot! Had an amazing experience at Tlayuda LA !! The food was delicious, I have never a caldo de pollo that tastes like the one back home in México! Also had mole and green enchiladas and everything had authentic flavors !Service was great and friendly! Definitely going back !“
“Just finished eating here. Everything was DELICIOUS. Everyone is so welcoming, and make sure you're well taken care of. ? The food was beyond my expectations. As a Mexican and home cook, this place exceeded my expectations, and my taste buds were beyond happy. The spicy sauce actually had a great kick ?. The menu is simple, but it doesn't need anything else. The Aguas frescas had just the right amount of sweetness. They were actually refreshing, I only wish some ice was added. The presentation of the food was BEAUTIFUL. The chef definitely takes pride in the food served, and the attention to detail is evident . I'm so glad we live so close. Will definitely continue to come to this hidden gem. Thank you for such a pleasant experience. I can't wait to try the rest of the dishes here.“
“Love Los Dorados and their perfect flautas- we always have an itch and craving, and find them either in Pico Rivera or East LA. They are so worth the drive! All of the options are delicious but our favorites are the potato, black bean and chicken flautas. The combination of the green sauce with the coteja cheese are mouthwatering! Staff is always incredibly friendly and helpful.“
“The food was so delicious. I recommend the chorizo and frijoles. We had two servers one was exceptional however the other server made us very uncomfortable with his aggressive, bad attitude and rude behavior. I'd like to say I would come back but if I saw him I would RUN!“
“We were a bit skeptical to eat at this restaurant due to the idea we have about Mexican food in the Us- spicy and tacos! We were very glad we overcame that idea and discovered some wonderful dishes. There is food for all the diets and they offer some dishes for people who can’t eat spicy food. Food was fresh. We loved the open kitchen to look at the cooks preparing our food. Service was ok and extremely served fast after ordering. The only minus points of this place were how loud the music was (not good for people who are extremely sensitive to noise) and how strong the ac was which made the food quickly cold. It is definitely an address to keep and a great place to discover the Mexican gastronomy.Parking: There is a valet for $7 and free street parking but be careful where you park. Not the best neighborhood“
“We were warmly greeted upon arrival. They serve delicious authentic Mexican cuisine. You must give it a try. The restaurant is clean and has a great atmosphere. They play light music in the background. The dishes are flavorful. The waiter was attentive. The owner checked in with us and thanked us for eating at his restaurant. I will definitely be back to try other dishes.Parking: The restaurant has parking in the back and there's also free street parking.“
“Nice Mexican restaurant in the Los Feliz neighborhood in LA. The restaurant had great ambiance and attentive service. We had an assortment of vegan and vegetarian sides, including flautas (made vegan), beans, rice, and fingerling potatoes. The dessert options included vegan sorbets and vegetarian churros.Vegetarian options: Good vegetarian options with a clearly labeled menu. Many of the Vegetarian items can be made vegan.“
“First time here and we loved it. Everything from the food to the service, to the best margaritas we have had in ages was in a battle for what we were trying to judge as the highlight of the visit. Throw in a festive and lively atmosphere and a beautiful patio and you have a can’t miss restaurant. All the attention is well deserved and we’ll definitely be back.“
“I frequent this place. Their homemade tortillas are incredible and elevates the breakfast burrito experience. The Chile relleno option in the burrito is out of this world—I think someone posted a review saying that the poblano lacked flavor and I’m convinced that specific person was having a bad day. Their burritos are exceptional in flavor and quality. East LA gem, don’t sleep on it.“
“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“
“This is a authentic Peruvian friendly and family oriented restaurant in LA. The Loma Saltado doesn’t even need extra salt. It is well seasoned and the flavors are on point. The owner has been in the area for 40 years and people have come to this place for a homie meal.“
“Delia's has been our favorite lunch spot for years now, and for good reason! Their chile verde special is absolutely to die for - it's our go-to dish every time. The customer service is top-notch, with the owner and kids being incredibly sweet and welcoming. The food quality and flavor are consistently amazing, and the outdoor seating creates a charming atmosphere that feels like you're enjoying a meal in your grandma's backyard, surrounded by beautiful plants. This hidden gem comes highly recommended - a must-visit for anyone looking for a delightful dining experience!“
“Honestly, the best fish burrito in town. This was my go-to spot on my way back from the Silverlake dog park a generation ago (wistfully, three dogs ago). I have since moved up north, but come back to LA from time to time and make it a point to visit Tacos Delta. It is remarkable to me that the burrito remains exactly the same, the fish perfectly crunchy on the outside and blissfully tender on the inside. All the fixings on the inside are tasty and fresh, popping with flavor. The tortilla also remains the same, imbued with deep nutty, earthy notes - so delicious one could eat it alone and be perfectly happy.Kudos for the way they service their soda machine - their pop is carbonated to perfection with just the right amount of syrup. As you can tell, these folks still know exactly what they're doing!“
“Fave spot in LA and order here at least 2-3x a week. Best, most creamiest hummus I’ve had in my life. Rice is cooked to perfection every time. Both their salads are delicious and refreshing, Tabouleh Oaxaca Salad is a must try. Taco plate with chicken and cauliflower is my go-to. Everything is fresh and packed with flavor. Prices are affordable/reasonable and portions are perfect. Owners are super friendly and you can tell they put a lot of care and passion into their food.Dietary restrictions: Vegan and vegetarian friendly.Parking: Has its own parking lot. About 7 spaces.“
“All I have to say is this: There is another Mediterranean/Mexican fusion in another part of East Los. THAT place gets a .25 of a star compared to this gem. Do yourself a favor. If you want that Mex/Med fusion you HAVE to come here. I had the Kebab burrito w/chile rojo and it's been on my mind ever since.“
“I have to say that their breakfast was delicious, but kinda pricey. I think I'll stick to CJ's Café for breakfast. Dinner, on the other hand, I'll spend more money on a dinner entrée, so we'll probably come back for dinner. The service was great!“
“This was our first time at this restaurant and it was very good. There was a wide variety of items on the menu, and it was difficult to choose because everything sounded so good. We decided on the enchiladas Suizas & quesadilla Lito with chicken, which were delicious. Our server was very friendly & attentiveand made sure we had everything we needed. We will definitely be back to try more items on the menu.“
“If you love carnitas you def gta check this place out! There is very limited parking but it's worth it ..we ordered one red and one green burrito! One of my favorite breakfast burritos in the area! Must try in your in town! The portions are massive.. You won't be disappointed ?“
“Literally the best Mexican food in LA and pretty good service. I discovered them because they were the only restaurant open on Christmas Day close to me, turns out I live 5 min away from here. It's super low key building but always busy so that should tell you something.“
“Taco Tuesday! Great prices for tacos on Tuesdays. There's a huge variety of seafood tacos and burritos, but there are also non-seafood options. The fish tacos were super yum! The chicken burrito was also tasty and filling. There are six 2-person tables that line one side of the shop and 2 booths that can fit six persons each. Before 7pm, the shop was empty with a few take away pick ups. After 7pm, however, the shop was full and seats were scarce. The lady taking the orders was super nice and helpful. Spanish and English. Shared parking in the strip mall.“
