Food Stands near San Gabriel, CA

“Solid Hispanic food truck with great price ($2 taco and $10 burrito as of March 2026). Only inconsistency would be the chef — depending on who’s cooking the amount of meat for burrito varies. Can customize order and choose your own condiments(cilantro, avocado sauce, green chili, red chili, onion, lime/lemon wedges, etc..).“

“We came back here after an year and the food still tastes the same, very delicious. The only thing that changed was that they got upgraded to a taco truck and it is called Tacos Los Poblanos. We tried chorizo tacos, Al pastor burrito and chicken Quesadilla. Every thing was on-point and the salsas were excellent. Highly recommend getting their Quesadilla with freshly handmade corn tortilla.“

“What a gem...hands down the best elotes l've ever had!! The corn man is super nice and super fast at pumping out Elote via cob or bowl. There was probably 20+ people ahead of me with multiple orders but it only took 25 minutes to get through since he's so efficient. It can be so amazingly rich and heavy for some folks but this is what you're coming for! A guilty pleasure ruminating in cheese, mayo and liquid butter and corn. I prefer the bowl over the cob since it's much easier to eat. I also recommend getting two at once so u don't have to wait in line again and it's so cheap. 100% recommend!“

“Villa's Tacos were amazing! and I'm not saying this just because of the hype of the Super Bowl. I'm saying this because I mean it. The tacos were just amazing to me. Not your regular everywhere tacos. These tacos were homemade recipes. I had the carne asada, pork with potato (puerco con papa) & beans with cactus (frijoles con nopal). It's a week later that I tried these tacos and I can't stop talking about them. My favorite was the beans with cactus. Soooo good. Also, the atmosphere was just so nice and lively. I truly enjoyed every minute of my visit here. Thank you Villa's Tacos, we will return.“

“I know a lot of are going to say no way! So on the 2025 Super Bowl a specific taco vendor was highlighted I’ll say. Without name dropping we all know who I’m talking about, if not look it up.
I e definitely had both… But I guarantee!! Tirzaha is 100% better!!
Try them both as I did I’m stuck on Tirzahs Mex-Terranean!!“

“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!“

“Absolutely delicious, cooked fresh and everything you want in a snack. There’s lots of savory and sweet options- I went with a ham and cheese one and a mixed berry cream cheese one. It looks like they have new and limited flavor options rotated out regularly. Paying is cash or Venmo only, but was very inexpensive. It took about 10 mins, and there’s some picnic tables nearby with cute little birds to keep you company while you wait.

It was cooked perfectly, melty and piping hot on the inside, and crispy on the outside, with a mildly sweet and crispy shell. Absolute perfection! A great way to grab a quick snack and take a short break while shopping. I definitely will be back.“

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

“Visiting Pasadena for a gaming convention and Grabbed some late night Al pastor and also some chicken and potatoes tacos and with their salsas…. It is heaven. Doin’ it right, here in Pasadena at Colorado and Altadena“

“Good taco stand with all the regular offerings, I got the baked potato - although huge very minimal meat. Meats were seasoned well, and they accept Zelle. Very smoky and they bbq on the sidewalk, very traditional LA vibe, they have a menu with pictures and a few tables if you choose to eat there.“

“the food looks and tastes authentic. They have a hand-made tortilla option. I recommend "una de surtido a mano" trust fam“

“食材很新鲜，素食主义者的天堂“

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

“This was a cool little outing. I went with just me and my baby. They had a ton of food options. Lots of vendors you could by anime things but if your not into that kind of thing there are or other option too. I ended up buying a dress and ring. As well as handmade press on nails. They even had and area with games to play and a stage with live music.“

“I've always enjoyed eating here and the guys and ladies that work here have never got my order wrong..until today. But when I took the food back to have the error corrected I was met with a swift resolution, hot delicious tacos and even a free soda for my troubles. This is the spot for great food and great customer service!“

“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 ..))“

“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.“

“Great taco spot. The food was fresh, flavorful, and you can really taste the quality. The tacos were well prepared and the portions were good. Service was friendly and quick, and the atmosphere was relaxed.
Definitely a place I would come back to when craving good tacos. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“This is a convenient taco stand, especially if you’re coming from or heading to the Metro station right across the street.

The tacos were good, and they have a self-serve salsa bar. Everyone working there was nice.

I paid $26 for six tacos and a large horchata.“

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

“BEST TACOS EVER!!! WIFE AND I USE TOGO TO LA TO GET OUR TACOS. THESE GUYS MAKE EVERYTHING FRESH, EVERYTHING IS HOMADE!!! EVERYONE NEEDS TO COME HERE AND FOLLOW THEM!!!!“

“(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.“

“I stumbled upon this family-run marisco joint. Friendly and fast service, they take credit card. Ordered a super mixto ceviche that had every kind of seafod on there, and 2 orders of tacos Dorado, which are deep fried shrimp tacos with sauce and avocados on top. Very delicious! Great for hot summer days“

“If I could give more stars I would! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We recently had Mano Po grill and pop-up for our students at USC, and it was absolutely amazing! The setup was quick and efficient, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. Loni and her team were a pleasure to work with. The chicken, pork, and shrimp were delicious and of the highest quality. We were so impressed with the overall experience, and we will definitely be using Mano Po again for future events. Highly recommended!“

“(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“

“Had the pork gyro, sweet potato and bean salad at Sherman oaks farmers market Sunday. Hands down the best Greek food and farmers market food I’ve had I. Los Angeles. Everything was so fresh and delicious! Cannot wait for next Sunday as I want to get the beef gyro next.“

“Fresh food 100% recommend“

“So first of all NOT a fruit smoothie stand. I drove here to grab a smoothie as it is called healthy juices. Picked out my fruit and after a bit was handed a cup full of fruit. She mentioned she needs to change the name, she only has passion fruit and dragon fruit juice which is awesome but not what I expected at all. However, the fruit is ripe and on point. Delicious. Great service and although very disappointed as I couldn't drive away with my drink and I had to sit in my car and eat it which wasn't the point, the fruit was delicious and the variety of fruits was great including jackfruit, dragon fruit and lychee on top of the customary pineapple mango, etc. Will be back when in the mood for a good fruit fruit bowl.“

“The food AND service is always good they have friendly staff that make you feel welcomed. Went today around 1 pm whoever was in the kitchen has it on lock, it was amazing. Laura was the cashier / server she was also amazing, had to leave a review!“

“Shrinkflation is real, haven't been here since 2019, but they're still quite tasty. Cash only, prices aren't as high as expected. You don't really need to talk to them if you prefer that, just fill in what you want on their menu and pay. Familiar HK fare but quite delicious“

“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...“

“This spot sells mesquite grilled chicken as a street stall. Prices are reasonable and their seasoning is SO good. Very good street food.

their chicken was charred and cooked perfectly, still juicy with each bite.

Included is: Grilled peppers, some salsa which was light and easy to dip, grilled tortillas, pickled peppers and onions, Spanish rice, and some of the best beans I've had. Beans were smoky sweet and flavorful with chicharron inside.

Would come back for some bomb grilled chicken that's for sure!

Entire chicken and all the sides were only $23. Cash or zelle accepted

“I was recommended to try this place and boy I will forever be grateful for this hint. In LA they're multiple taco stand like this, but this one was by far one of the best one. The salsas where extremely good. Tacos where pack with meat. And, try their volcanoes they're awesome!“

“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 !!!“

“The food here is pretty great. The rib tacos literally include tiny ribs in them and the ribs are amazing.

Any variety of tacos is prepared quickly in front of you. My friends and I didn't try the drinks but they seem great too.

Service was ok, but you don't go to taco trucks for stellar service, let's be honest, haha.

Also, one thing to notice: their location in Google Maps seems to not be their most recent one. Where I saw them was on:

1401 Alameda St, Los Angeles, CA 90021

Right next to a Starbucks.“

“I discovered a hidden gem for seafood in Highland Park! The food is incredible, offering an authentic taste from Sinaloa. This was my first visit, and I tried five different dishes—each one was unbelievably delicious. I can confidently say I’ve found my new go-to spot!“

“I tried the lemon linguini and it is very delicious. Thank you.“

“I first visited this place five years ago, and it was amazing—one of my favorite taco spots in L.A. I’d been wanting to try it again, and recently, while visiting SoCal, I had the chance to stop by. While it’s still pretty good, it doesn’t quite feel like it used to. The tacos are smaller now, as is the trend with most places in L.A. I’m not sure what happened, but I’m guessing one of the main tortilla distributors started making them smaller, promoting it as a selling point so that trucks don’t have to use as much meat and ingredients. What surprised me here, though, is that the tortillas are handmade and yet they started making them smaller. I still enjoy them—they really are the closest thing to a Tijuana-style taco. The flavor is excellent, and the guacamole is fantastic! All in all, it is still worth it to make the drive because where else can you get handmade tortillas and thick, gloppy guac? Here!“

“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)“

“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.“

“location and excellent customer service“

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