50 Best Taco Restaurants near Toluca Lake

“Love the people and food is amazing!!“

“I live nearby, so I've gotten food here a few times. Consistently delicious, and the owner is very pleasant. Highly recommend if you happen to see the truck at the gas station. Plan to take out, because it's not a dine-in experience but the food is great!“

“the prices aren't are not that expensive they got some good food here and good staff“

“Really enjoyed the food here. The carne asada was well seasoned and the marinade on the pastor was subtle yet delicious. It’s been a while since I’ve been impressed by street tacos in LA. I’ve been spoiled and accustomed to tacos in Mexico, and this place definitely hit the spot. Looking forward to our next visit.“

“So delicious!!! The cheese Asada tacos are the besttt!! The quesadillas too yumm!!!

Can’t go wrong with anything you order honestly. Ask for the carrots they’re delicious. They do the work with quality and good stuff cause I usually get a tummy ache from Mexican food but from here I don’t. Totally worth coming here for tacos.

They only offer outdoor seating so make sure to go at a cool time. Staff is great and they’re quick even when they’re busy.“

“We stopped by while visiting LA, in search of good local tacos and Taco La 26 did not disappoint!!! The tortillas were fresh, the salsa was delicious & the al pastor was my favorite! I love that they have free roasted potato’s and onions, so no matter what you get a filling meal.

You order at the food station then pay at the counter with the square machines. No where to sit but honestly they’ll be gone before you could sit down.

It is a block from skid row, & as tourist we weren’t familiar - but like anywhere else, just pay attention to your surroundings. The location is gated and there’s plenty of parking.

Open late and so delicious! 10/10 recommend & would DEFINITELY eat here again.“

“Local Taqueria worth the stop.“

“Line moves quickly. Clear menu and lots of options (lots of variety and nachos/potatoes). Super efficient and friend staff too. Food was delicious and happy I don’t have to drive down to DLTA for delish tacos. Big bonus : seeing fresh corn tortillas being made, free parking at target, and some seating for guests!! You won’t be disappointed :)“

“It’s 6:40 on a Saturday night and I’m alone in this taco shop. I can’t understand that. Maybe it’s a K-town secret.
The food has excellent flavor. I ordered the carne asada bowl. The crunchies in top are special. It’s delicious, but the steak is a little chewy. It’s a lot of food for a reasonable price. The red salsa is super tasty, but use caution with the yellow salsa. She’ll make you cry.
I’ll probably come back tomorrow and order the chicken.
The employers are sweet. The shop is clean.“

“👍People are very warm and accommodating“

“Very unassuming place. It looks modest and you would never guess how phenomenal the food is! Everything is freshly made. Hand cut folded wrapped prepped you got it. Best tacos I've tasted on this side of the border. Seating and parking is limited.“

“some of the best tacos in town 😋🤍“

“Best tacos ACTUALLY! Family owned and very kind folks. Had 2 carne asada and 1 chicken tacos. The tortillas were fire and the meat sooo delicious. You also get to put your own toppings and they have guac as an option (not as an expensive add on). So yummy!“

“I'll be honest the atmosphere is not good yet if you wish to taste an authentic Mexican dish ex taco, burrito etc with hand made tortillas and great quality of meats and vegetables this is the place to go. And moreover the prices are cheap. I'm definitely coming back.!😁“

“Great tacos!!!! To be returning soon again....“

“las gringas espevialidad de la casa“

“Papas with Spinach is still the best breakfast burrito anywhere with amazing hot sauce. Been coming here since the late 90s and it’s the same, except more consistent hours now. It used to be they were open whenever they felt like working, which made you want it more🤣 Yeah, the staff is still grumpy and cold, but you get an amazing breakfast burrito.“

“Fair prices, really great staff, great variety for food, definitely suggest the horchata it's amazing and they don't give a whole cup of ice. It's unfortunate that they only take cash but they are set up right next to a Ralph's grocery store so it's not too hard to get. Will be coming back!“

“WORTH ALL THE HYPE!

Sadly that also meant be prepared to wait in long line especially on peak dinner time, which was right at their opening time. We did come on Saturday which probably made it worse.

Nothing fancy, it’s basically occupying a spot on the Pavilion’s parking lot at Hollywood. Quite limited chairs provided so it’s not uncommon seeing people eating while standing or using their car’s trunk.

We got their crowd’s favorite Ribeye and Flank Steak, both of which were indeed so so good in their own ways. Chunky juicy meats on top of the blue corn tortilla. Everything’s cooked fresh to order and they didn’t go complicated with sauce on top of your taco, which even made the meat more stand out, being so flavorful on its own.

If you felt like us and wanna try something beyond beef, certainly go for their Al Pastor, which was also luscious and I’d definitely come back again for.

Don’t forget opt for extra melted cheese on your taco!“

“First off, Terrific Customer Service at the Long Beach, CA location! The manager is amazing. So helpful with recommendations when asked, provides great detail, and is so enthusiastic about the incredible menu. Tocaya at 2nd & PCH has lovely, fresh, bright, clean food. The menu is unique and flexible. You get to choose the protein you want, the cheese you want, whether or not you want your dish to be vegan. So many options and super tasty food! My friend really enjoyed the VEGAN Asada & VEGAN Tinga tacos. I loved my Taco Salad with gluten-free, battered & fried mahi-mahi (that was so, so scrumptious) with Queso Fresco. I swapped and got the cilantro lime dressing (instead of the roasted poblano dressing) and my bowl of goodies was delicious. We shared and relished the Street Corn and the (VEGAN) Queso & Chips. We were both shocked to find the Queso was VEGAN; it’s that good! We also tried the vegan Crema, just to check it out — SO yummy. AND the obviously homemade chips were mouthwatering. Tocaya has seasonal Sangria selections, beer, and other interesting drink options. They’ve got indoor and outdoor seating… and I recommend you head over soon!“

“Take your time gathering any of the many sauces and things. It went take long for your order to be ready, just pause and collect then return to grab all the sauces but yet bagged. Limes, cilantro&onions, salsa fresco, salsa Verde, salsa roja x2, radishes, grilled pepper and onions, crema, and more. All the things to make the meal your own.
A note about the carne asada fries (or any meat fry), is the use of a cheese sauce instead of fresh shredded cheese which some may like but not I. I'm guessing you can substitute the cheese for the desired experience.
This taco truck is worth a retry. The crowd certainly approves and has the right frame if reference to judge a taco truck. Rarely have I seen a throng of people eating at tables beside such food trucks let alone the steady stream of customers. Festive and lively, those customers add to the positive vibes of this sidewalk eatery. Just be sure you're at the right taco truck!“

“The best tacos in California!“

“los mejores tacos de los angeles 100% recomendados saludos desde Utah“

“10 out of 10. Lovely people and great food. I come here multiple times a week and have been coming here for about 5 years. I love getting their nachos and they are always down to give it to me with the chips separate than the rest of it so I don't have to eat all of it immediately and have it be soggy.

I recommend the fish tacos the most! They're surprisingly filling and two usually does the trick and then I have leftovers for the next day. The strawberry lemonade agua fresca is also excellent I tried it for the first time a couple days ago.

They take venmo but they also take card now on a little square reader and of course cash. They are fast and friendly and have good condiments and salsas available.

I used to drive a mile from Burbank around once a month but now I live like three blocks away and I come way too often. Super affordable high quality as well and I'm trying meats I've never tried before“

“I'm here at an amazing spot on hillhurst in Los Feliz across from Albertsons... A staple for Mexican foods for sure 💯 I had the carne asada burrito and it's just so bomb.. the burrito was HUGE. like ol' school huge 👌 probably the most authentic Ive had in 15+ years ❤️❤️❤️❤️ ... You need to come here like now! ...Also... A drink was included. 👌 Kudos El Ruso 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 ill totally be back for sure. 🧑‍🍳👩‍🍳👨‍🍳 🤗 ....aaaand I just had their tacos 👌 holeee shit. 🖖👌👌👌🙏❤️💯✂️ Get the tacos ❤️“

“I tried the shrimp and fish tacos. They were decent, but honestly overpriced for what they are. The staff was friendly, the food came out quickly, and the patio is a nice place to sit. However, inside the restaurant it was hard to breathe because of the strong smell of fried oil, like the ventilation was not working well.

Parking can also be difficult, although there are paid parking options nearby. The tacos were okay, but the fish was too soft and covered in batter, so I couldn’t really taste the fish itself. The vegetables were fresh and nicely cut, and the sauces were good, but there were no extra toppings or salsa station like in many other Mexican taco spots.

Overall, it’s not a bad place, but for the price, I personally would not come back for these tacos.“

“Muy amable el personal y la comida muy rica 💯 recomendada 👌🏼“

“This place was phenomenal. The staff and owner were so friendly and engaging. The food was top tier. I had the street tacos and Avocado rolls. The tacos were portioned really well and the shredded beef was flavorful. The Avocado rolls tasted so fresh and the roll was light and fluffy. I could eat the roll without any fillingb, thats how good it was. The sauce that came with it was good as well. The fresh juice was a winner as well. The customer service, price, portion size, and freshness of the ingredients makes this place 5 star. I will definitely visit again and recommend this place as 10 out of 10.“

“Everyone thinks LA food is great ,this is big mistake,it’s really hard to find tasty and nice place ,where you would love to be back again .But want to share this place ,it’s called Great white I will promise you will want to come back. Great menu ,good drinks. I love alcohol specially wine.with wine life is better oops here we talking about different things.So back to Great white. Menu is amazing ,fresh and delicious. Recommend this salmon board or Chrissy chicken sandwich you wills at thank you.🍷“

“I visited Tacos Tumbras a Tomas at Grand Central Market in Downtown Los Angeles.

I ordered the carnitas tacos, which are one of their specialties.
The pork was flavorful and tender, and the portion was surprisingly large.
They also asked whether I wanted the salsa spicy or mild, which was nice because I could choose it based on my preference.

The amount of meat was so generous that one order was more than enough to fill me up.
They also provide extra tortillas, so you can make additional tacos with the generous amount of meat.

The tacos were delicious, filling, and reasonably priced. I was especially impressed by the portion size for the price.

The stand has been serving Michoacan-style carnitas at Grand Central Market for many years, and it’s easy to see why it has remained popular.

If you’re visiting Grand Central Market and want to try a hearty and affordable Mexican meal, I definitely recommend stopping by!“

“Best taco birria in town, yesterday was my first time trying it and I loved it, today I try the pizza birria and of course it was delicious…… definitely recommended😍😍“

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

“Our waiter… Shawn was amazing tonight!!!! Thank you!“

“Best tacos in Southern California... Excellent service and good music“

“I never knew there was a Homestate near by, I took my family there after I went to a couple of yelp events where Homestate was featured and loved their tacos, but I have never tried their hibiscus limeade. This was refreshing and amazing. My tijuana pather (brisket taco) fell apart but it was so good. Honestly, I've had several of their tacos and forth worth is my favorite. The potato taco was also decent. These tacos are messy because it is filled. You will leave full after 2 tacos.

The service was also great. They accidently left the bacon in the forth worth and fixed it right away. Even offered 2 cookies because it was busy and had to wait. That's great customer service.

I will be making this location a favorite for tex mex tacos.

Also parking is better after 6, it's only 30 mins prior right in front. This is downtown culver city so there's several lots and I'm not entirely sure about parking in the neighborhood, so just check signs.“

“Best tacos I’ve ever tasted. I got a shrimp one and steak one. My god! I wish I lived close by but I was only in the area for a day. I’ll be missing them and dreaming about the tacos until I return again. (Black BMW lady)“

“I drive by this spot all the time and finally stopped to give it a try. I got the Al Pastor burrito and was sooo happy with my choice. You see them cooking it right in front of you, all fresh. The tortillas are handmade as well and you can absolutely tell the difference. Love the salsas as well. It’s quick, reasonably priced, and everyone is kind. What more can you want from a local taco stand? If you are wondering whether to stop in, just do it already and thank me later“

“Great burritos cheese carne asada also great tacos pastor, chicken asada. There guacamole and green sauce fire good taste.Come check them out line up watch them make hand made tortillas prepare your food cash out then eat at tables or at your car in parking lot or to go eat at home or wherever you plz. Enjoy great fast food. Highly recommended. This location, or the highland park one, either one both very good they do not dissapoint.“

“Not even gonna lie. Some of the best tacos I've had here. The chicken wasn't pretty but it was dang sure good. It was for sure up to par with the pork. The pork was that crispy cook too, but they could cook it how u like. Where im for sure sold is that the tacos are cheap. I've noticed the price rise over the years. Another plus goes to the location. I believe if they aren't there, or right next to them this dude makes these mash potato meat and veggie bowls in the potato. Im telling you, you really have to check out the food on the street. Both the tacos and the potatoes. Last thing, they weren't those little tacos either. Nah, these tacos got gains. Please don't miss out.“

“muy rico todo 100% recomendado cuando vengan a los Angeles pasen a comerse unos tacos!! Toda la comida esta bien rica!!“

“Happy“

“So so so good. Reminded me of street tacos I’d get in Mexico. The guy running the stall is a beast too! Ran through those orders masterfully. Plus they have a great condiments section with fresh salsas and veggies that you can dress up your tacos with. If you’re vegetarian you can also get the potatoes with cheese and add nopales :)“
