“These tacos were recommended and Should I say I am thankful I took the recommendation. The Al pastor tacos were delicious. Suadero tacos are good as well. The cabeza tacos are not bad at all. I need to try the rest. I will be back. Prices are very decent especially for the food you pay for. I strongly suggest these tacos.“

Thought it was sketchy buying corn from a man in the middle of the night. Turned out to be a life changing experience. 5/7 Corn was as sweet as the dream I had that night. Would buy corn from sketchy man again.“

“Tirzahs Mexi-Terranean is a great fast-food alternative! Food is freshly prepared and service is top notch. Outdoor patio seating only, saw many to go orders Monday after 4PM. Small parking lot with plenty of street parking on the industrial side of town.

“You can't go wrong with anything on the menu, with that said I love to try a different item on it everytime I get a chance to stop by. Taste and quality are always on point. It's awesome to see the staff having a blast together with great music in the background making the experience feel fun even when there's a wait. Pricing is perfect as the portions are generous and the flavors are like to other. So happy to see this business growing as I look forward to seeing them all over the nation one day. Keep serving it up #TYQ!“

“The best food!! 100% recommended totally worth the wait in line! Food is amazing!!“

“Pretty delicious Taiyakis sundae! Definitely recommend it if you are around little Tokyo. Specially this place kind of hidden in between a Mart and a parking garage.
The taiyaki is made on the spot flesh, authentic and quite a few options of flavors

The lady is friendly and attentative“

“We are from Guadalajara Mexico, they are not good…. They are delicious, the tacos las aguas, the quesadillas, this place is one hundred percent recommended to anyone who knows about Mexican tacos, their tacos are better than many places in Mexico, well served and everything they prepare is very delicious. The large roast quesadilla with tripe is a championship, only for connoisseurs... thank you very much for your service, first time I have eaten tacos outside of Mexico, they are delicious...“

“exelente servicio la comida muy sabrosa😋 aquí encuentra amabilidad y cortecia 😍 🤩“

“I recently visited the 626 Night Market with my cousins, and even though I’d heard so much about it, I approached it with mixed feelings. As a foodie, I was excited to explore, but I’m not a fan of waiting in long lines, especially when I can just visit a restaurant instead—though we were there to celebrate a special occasion.

Tip: Definitely arrive early and purchase your tickets in advance! We made the mistake of rushing to the first stalls and missed out on the full experience because we didn’t realize there was an entire other side to explore. Lesson learned! Wear comfortable shoes! Sunscreen! Hand Sanitizer!

Now, onto the food: the grilled squid was delicious, and the fried potatoes were an absolute must-try—especially when they’re hot and fresh. The tanghulu was fantastic, though a bit pricey; I’d suggest trying to make it at home if you can. The balut was good, and the grilled lamb was a standout—it was absolutely fire! However, the Thai rice patty sandwich was disappointing, so I’d recommend skipping that.

There’s so much to see and experience at the market, from tasty food to fun games. We even had a great time playing games, and all the cousins walked away with stuffed animals! Overall, we had a blast, and I recommend checking it out if you enjoy vibrant atmospheres and unique eats. Just remember to plan ahead for the best experience!“

“definitivamente muy sabrosos los tacos los mire en tic toc y dije que cuando fuera a las angeles iría con mi familia a probarlos y la verdad quedamos fascinados,,,no entiendo como muchas loncheras o restaurantes venden Tacos de cabeza muy caros pero además de caros malicimos,,,la verdad se los recomiendo,,,,o y lleguen temprano porque se acaban muy rápido.“

“I love to come to this taco stand; the service is always prompt and the owners are very kind. The food is absolutely incredible and they usually have an Agua Fresca (horchata most of the time) and it's always delicious as well. They accept cash or zelle!“

“I've been coming here since I was a little kid. The food quality is top notch. This is the place to get the best Mexican food in Glendale. The carne asada burrito is a staple. With some lime and green salsa, the burrito is scrumptious. The workers are very friendly and I believe they are a family. It is a humble little restaurant with great food. Parking can be tricky and seating is limited, but the food is worth it. Always fresh and tasty. That hasn't changed in 20 years.“

“So much flavor! We've tried all the vegan meats except the chicken. Definitely recommend the Carne Asada and the Al Pastor, but for sure get the potato taquitos. Also, the hot salsa is one of the spiciest salsas I've ever had. It's amazing.“

“the best carnitas that I have had in years, highly recommended.“

“las gringas espevialidad de la casa“

“trio tacos are delicious and the burrito is good make you feel full when you eating.“

“(Translated by Google) These tacos are amazing, very good and well served, they make a load of meat and the dog seasoning. Those with cecina with cheese are the most buts and roast and rib.(Original)Estos tacos están pasados de lanza, muy buenos y bien servidos, le hechan un chingo de carne y el sazon perro. Los de cecina con queso son los más peros y asada y costilla.“

“Amazing little taqueria with great food and service. The soy chorizo option was really good for vegetarians; the veggie options comes with mushrooms. Their mango passion agua fresca was delicious. (They also have dog friendly tacos!)

Vegetarian options: Soy chorizo and veggie (mushroom) options. Potato taquitoes were also good. Have side dishes like corn, beans and rice“

“I got here by chance on a Saturday night, the parking lot was full and the line was long, so I assumed it was good. I am not lying when I tell you that these are probably the BEST TACOS I’ve ever had in my life. If you want to have the real street food experience in LA, this is absolutely it. Its opened every day from 1PM to 2AM. • Llegué aquí por casualidad un sábado por la noche, el parqueadero estaba lleno y la fila era larga, así que asumí que era bueno. No estoy mintiendo cuando te digo que estos son probablemente los MEJORES TACOS que he probado en mi vida. Si quieres tener la verdadera experiencia de comida callejera en Los Ángeles, esto es. Está abierto todos los días de 1PM a 2AM.“

“The best food!! 100% recommended totally worth the wait in line! Food is amazing!!“

“I just had a bad experience with food from Dim Sum Express, but it was DUE TO MY OWN IGNORANCE. Here's what happened:
I made a large order of dim sum and took them home. When I bit into a Char Siu Bao I got a huge whiff of ammonia.
I assumed the food I bought was bad, and tossed $50 worth of Dim Sum in the trash.

It occurred to me that Chinese cooking sometimes contains Potassium Nitrate, and I wondered if maybe what I smelled was a decomposition product of KNO3. So I did some Googling.

What I discovered was that the making of Char Siu Bao requires Ammonium Bicarbonate (臭粉), a leavening agent that releases Ammonia!

So be aware that Dim Sum Express Char Siu Bao may be a little adventurous for diners who are accustomed to Chinese food that has been "toned down" for consumption by Westerners.
I think that the Ammonium Bicarbonate is ONLY used when making steamed bao, so you may order anything else without getting surprises.

By the way, Char Siu - Chinese red pork and Chinese Sausage both contain Potassium Nitrate, as do some other dishes. This is the actual cause of the headache and discomfort that most people ascribe to MSG (Monosodium Glutamate).

So, just passing along some things I learned today!“

“I had read an article in Conde Nast Traveler about the place so we decided to stop in for a bite. Didn't realize it was "those type of quesadillas", how embarrassing LOL. No worries! Got to meet Gabriella the owner, so nice and invited us to tour the kitchen, even though it was late in the day on New Years Eve. Such a great story with her and family recipes handed down from her grandparents. Worth a stop in! And I imagine calling her in advance she will give you a tour as well...“

“unos tacos muy buenos tenía días de ir a probar esos ricos tacos y justo haora fui y muy buenos muy bien atendidos ..con una rapidez para servirle a la gente gracias ((tacos don cuco ..))“

“The place is super clean I really like it everything is very fresh today I went to that place and I forgot my cell phone on the table luckily the honesty of the people who work there is excellent and I was able to recover it I recommend this place I give it 5 stars“

“This place is great! Celebrating over 50 years! Gotta try it!“

“A hidden gem in Boyle Heights. Don’t let the humble appearance of the place fool you, because I actually l found the front yard house set-up quite charming. You’re not going to get your mind blown by the sights or senses, but if you need to satisfy that basic craving for a good pizza with no frills, this is your place. You can get the “home-made” experience for take out so If you’re in the area I recommend stopping by for this one of a kind experience. Street parking only, but I never had any problems finding parking.

Parking: Street parking only. Parking is easier to find in the adjacent residential side of the neighborhood (when you get off the main street)“

“This is an original "street tacos" stand. The carne asada tacos were delicious, and the servings were quite generous. The staff is very helpful and friendly, prices are very affordable, and the outdoor seating and music is a lot of fun.“

“(Translated by Google) Delicious cheap and excellent flavor and fast service the quesatacos and super crispy vampires are delicious Monday-Wednesday to Sunday my little girl calls him takito place his birria tacos fascinate him(Original)Rico barato y exelente sabor y servicio rapido estan ricos los quesatacos y vampiros super crijientes estan lunes -miercoles a domingo ami chabelita le llama takito place le facinan sus tacos de birria“

“Everything is well cleaned and the attention of the employees is excellent, they treat you with respect and all the ? ? ? mulitas the cakes are delicious and the water ? de horchata, not to mention it is delicious and it is very accessible for all those who wish to come recommended ? ? ? ? ?“

“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“

“Classic Street Taco stand. Al pastor on a spit, asada, cabeza, lengua and tripas. You can also get your choice of meat over a baked potato. Good is generally tasty, although I thought the pastor was a little oversalted on my visit last night.“

“i go to college and this food truck was posted just outside my dorm. decided to try it since i’m a big fan of Mexican food and it did not disappoint. Service was super fast even though there was a huge line. the food was absolutely incredible and easily goes in my top 5 best Mexican dishes. i got the perro with no beans and it was amazing. it included a huge homeade flour tortilla, super tender and juicy steak, a whole grilled jalapeño, spicy salsa, guacamole and cilantro and onions. definitely plan on eating here again and would highly recommend if you have the opportunity.“

“Short Stop Pizza - Thanks a lot !This is the number one dining place I can think of for the best places to eat any meal of the day.They have an excellent variety of food as well as accommodating servers who always put their customer's needs first.“

“Bomb carnitas! Highly recommended after a long Friday night!“

“Un trato muy Amable y Cordial y La Comida Exquisita!!! En Lo Personal a mi me encanta La Torta de Milanesa y Las Mulitas de Carne Asada y Pastor. Los Burritos de Asada con su cebolla asada y Chiles toreados !!!“

“Best birria Ever there service is excellent everything is so good 👌“

“I've been coming here for a while now and he's still my favorite elote man! There's plenty of free parking at night. He comes later in the night now, around 10:30 PM. Keep in mind that there's always a long line, depending on what day you go, you can spend over an hour waiting for corn. The corn man and his son are super friendly! I always get corn on the cob and one in a bowl togo. It's $2 each and make sure you bring cash. Overall, definitely worth it if you are a corn lover!“

“Corner stand, they sell Burritos-10$, Quesadilla-10$, Mulitas-5$, Tacos-2$.

They are the smaller tortillas but at 2$ definitely worth it. Had Al Pastor, Asada, Pollo, Buche, Tripa and Chorizo. They sell sodas and Horchata. Avocado salsa had a small kick, red sauce was very good, had a hint of sweetness. Did not try the green salsa.

They there daily with exemption of Wednesdays, usually in the afternoon into evenings.“
