El Flamin Taco - Echo Park

$3 for 1 taco is insane.

The burrito seemed a bit small, but it was good enough. Thankfull it was open at 2am!

THIS PLACE MUST STOP. RAISING RIDICULOUS PRICES, FOOD IS NOT REALLY GOOD,AND NOT AUTHENTIC MEXICAN FOOD AS THEY SAID, LAST TIME I EAT OVER HERE,

I came over to El Flamin Taco after leaving a concert at The Echo. I ordered one chicharron, one al pastor, and one asada taco. When they came out, I loaded them up with pico de gallo, cilantro and onion, pickled red onion, salsa, and fresh lemon.

The tacos were all very tasty, though I think my ranking from favorite to least favorite is: chicharron, asada, al pastor. That’s not to say the al pastor was bad—it was actually really tasty. I just really enjoyed the chicharron and asada. The toppings were super fresh and the salsas were both delicious.

This is a very yummy taco spot. I’ll have to come back and try out some other items, like the California burrito and the Cubana torta.

Great taco truck, their huaraches are fire, their meat is well seasoned and their salsas are very flavorful. You won’t be disappointed by the asada or Al pastor

Go to Tacos after work. Usually ask for mulitas and tascos de al pastor. Usually they'll have orchata but overall extensive menu and Vegan options too.

We've been coming here for years for their al pastor tacos, strictly. But have tried their asada and chicken tacos. They're ok, but we feel it's all about their al pastor (from the trompo)

They make the best huaraches!

Parking: Limited parking spaces.

Kid-friendliness: They are located on the Main Street. Can be a little dangerous pulling in and out.

The food is disgusting, tastes like if it was made with feet. Not what it used to be... the chicken taco is such a lazy made chicken, tastes like it came out of a sopa de pollo, watered down.. the Hawaiian torta? I can smell the can smell from the pineapple and I can smell the plastic from the cheap dollar shredded lettuce used... not delicious! Waste of fourteen bucks.

I am leaving this review in case you’re vegetarian like us. The employee said the beans are not vegetarian. When asked what is vegetarian, she states anything can be made vegetarian with beans, rice, lettuce, etc. when clarifying again that if the beans are vegetarian, she states no. We went in circles a few times to understand what is vegetarian and it seems like nothing actually is.

pastor is something fierce

I’ve been here a few times. The Al Pastor was once one of the best in the city. My recent experience is revising that down significantly. Bone and fat in the al pastor with no flavor. Nothing tastes good. At best a 2/5 and the prices are very high now, almost $7 a taco… go somewhere else and save your money.
