El Canastón is such a hidden gem—an unexpected but amazing Turkish and Mexican fusion spot! I had the tacos de canasta and was blown away. The salsa and slaw combo was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, and just the right amount of kick.

We also tried the birria ramon, which was massive and super clean tasting. Honestly, I barely made a dent in it, but it was so worth it.

Tried Turkish coffee for the first time too—wasn’t quite...
An excellent taco shop in the Northridge mall food court. Fantastic, handmade while you wait tortillas..wonderful tacos, sopes, and quesadillas all served with tasty salsas and a smile. Plenty of excellent veggie options and an unusual twist of baklava and Turkish sweets in addition to the more traditional flan and tres leches.
The owners cooked and served. They love what they do and it shows. Very nice. Food was great. There were 4 of us and we all got different meals. All very good. Driving through but would go out of my way to come again. Atmosphere got two stars because it is in the food court at the mall. Would still go again regardless. Thanks!!!!
