Food Stands near Santa Monica, CA

“I went when it was pretty empty so thankfully there wasn't much of a wait time. You order on a tablet and wait to the side. I got their signature hotdog. It was really good and the sausage in the hotdog is actually a good size. I would go here again, but only if it's empty. The person at the stand who makes the food doesn't really talk, only to announce orders, so I can't say customer service is great, but it's amazing if you have anxiety.“

“The best cookies you will find in all of Los Angeles. Creative flavors, quality ingredients, and made by the best people around. Highly recommend“

“✨✨SHOW STOPPER ✨✨
✨EXPLOSION OF FLAVOR ✨
WOW!!! This was our first stop coming into town and wouldn’t have wanted it any other way! The second the first bite of Alex’s incredible burrito and street tacos hit my mouth there was no going back. His ability to create such incredible flavors in not only the burrito itself, but all of the add ons and sauces as well is OUT OF THIS WORLD!! Would go again, again, AND AGAIN! 😋 Not to mention Alex’s ability to make you feel at ease and have a great time in such a comfortable setting.

If you don’t stop here, you must not like top notch culinary delights and authentic experiences 😊🔥🌯🌮“

“This is a great example of how LA street mexican food culture is like.

This place has one of the best pastor tacos in LA. Their meats are well seasoned and are not dry. Their salsas have great flavor and heat.

The lines can be long but it is worth the wait. You just can't beat this place when it comes to taste, quality, and price.“

“DELICIOUS,TASTY AMD FLAVORFUL HIGHLY RECOMMEND“

“Great tacos- super tasty, good price, has every side/ addition you could want. there’s even music playing. Has an organized ordering line and the chefs and staff were very friendly and attentive. So happy I ran into this walking to Vons. Has a few stools to sit on if you want to eat there. A table or two would be nice since gets pretty crowded but eating on the parking barrier on the side of the road w everyone still a vibe you know“

“Just ate there the food was good. Me and my wife loved it. Highly recommend this place. The chicken tacos were great.“

“We had a burrito recommended by the chef and the Birria plate. Both delicious and service was very quick and friendly. Nowhere to sit in the immediate area which isn’t their fault of course. We sat across the street at the shaded bus station and managed just fine :)“

“me encantaron las hamburguesas!“

“The taco 5y10 is what you come here for. It’s delicious! The freshly handmade yellow corn tortilla is delicious and soft. I got the taco de cabeza which is would highly recommend. The fattiness of the cabeza complements the black bean filling of the taco, both in flavor and texture. My fiancé ordered the taco de al pastor which was also good but we both agreed the cabeza was better. One taco 5y10 is bigger than any burrito, so one is more than enough. They cut the taco in half so that it fits in the styrofoam box, so if you’re interested in trying different meats, brining a friend, each other a different meat and swap halves. Also, the agua de horchata is delicious! Definitely homemade, not from a packet.“

“I feel passionate about this one - people are sleeping on Ricos Tacos Naomi! First of all, the tortillas are made by hand. That’s enough to set this place apart from the tens of other tacos spots using low-quality tortillas. The tortilla should not be an after thought, folks! Second, the meats are delicious. Their al pastor is juicy and well-seasoned. I am a sucker for tripa but I’m always hesitant to order it because some people don’t know how to clean it and cook it. The tripa at Ricos Tacos Naomi is fantastic! You can ask the guy to crisp it up if you want it crunchy, but personally, I like it soft. And third, the toppings (salsas and guacamole) are yummy!“

“The food here is so good, I was a bit skeptical at first but I got the #1 which was 6/5 stars, I also ordered the churro which was the best I’ve ever had and was freshly made, and the water melon aqua Fresca was perfect wasn’t to sweet either. I definitely recommend“

“The best Peruvian influenced Mexican food you will ever need. The best.“

“Never again - liars, cheats, etc. dont book them - Dont trust them - they lie! And sadly for elementary students they lie and then last minute cancel but then call back and say they will take job?n?b?b? What is up with that!!! Do NOT bother - untrustworthy and disrespectful. Go with las guajalotas LA sooooo good and lovely humans“

“Best arepas in town :) such a warming friendly staff. I highly recommend them!“
