Food flavor is always a 10/10 I just wish the place looked better and had AC. They definitely need to refurbish. If you are in a hurry, order ahead so the food could be ready at pick up. My drive is 10 minutes and its usually ready upon my arrival. Take Cash to avoid the credit card/debit card fee.

Burritos at Karina’s are highly recommended, especially for their top-tier flavor and quality. Some customers mention that the burritos are simple but excellent, with one highlighting the absence of rice, which they find preferable. The taco truck outside is popular for late-night visits, offering tacos, tortas, and burritos, with meats that are always good and salsas that complement the food well. The service in both the restaurant and the food truck is consistently polite, fast, and attentive, often with staff checking orders to ensure accuracy.
Certain dishes like tripas are noted for being crunchy and flavorful, and the carne asada tacos remain a highlight, despite some comments about it being a bit salty or more cooked than usual. However, recent visits have been less satisfying for some, citing burnt beans, salty rice, and uncomfortable conditions due to lack of A/C on hot days. Overall, Karina’s Tacos is valued for its friendly service, clean environment, and tasty food, making it a favorite for many locals seeking good Mexican fare in South El Monte.
