Its great if youre not into waiting an hour next door or going to sit down for a full service deal at Joselitos cuz youre in sandals and gym shorts.“

“I ordered the chicken enchilada, and it was absolutely delicious. The flavors were rich and authentic, and you could tell it was made fresh. Every bite was satisfying, and it easily became the highlight of my visit.

Even though the shop isn’t very big, the quality of the food and the warm vibe more than make up for it. If you’re in the Tujunga area and craving good Mexican food, this place is definitely worth checking out.“

“We had the sopes and tacos de tripa and cabeza with agua de tamarindo. Everything was delicious. The salsa was good. I was suprised when I arrived because it has a nice outdoor seating and it's big inside. Good place to hold an informal party or family gatherings. Lots of parking around the corner on Commerce Avenue.“

“best authentic Mexican food in town, family ran and Wonderful people.“

“This location is one of my 3 favorite #DelTaco locations in the entire Los Angeles Area. #Serious #GreenBurrito #CrinkleCutFries #AlwaysHot“

“atienden muy bien los meseros son muy serviciales todos y la manager pregunta si todo esta bien estan al pendiente en todo momento muy buen servicio“

“A nice place to grab classic breakfast dishes or you can opt for equally as delicious Mexican breakfast choices. The outdoor seating was well shaded, but be aware that you seat yourself. The freshly squeezed orange juice is delicious and tastes absolutely fresh. I look forward to coming back.“

“I'm from out of town, but have come here twice now. Incredible food each time, and such friendly staff. The vibes are immaculate, too. Salsa & guacamole are both on point.I would be willing to throw hands for the carnitas, perfectly seasoned and crispy on the edges.“

“I just had lunch with my two daughters, ages 12 and 15. It was our first time here.

We ordered three plates: two 3-birria taco combo plates and one order of vampire tacos with chorizo. We tried all the sauces that came with them, along with a 24-ounce horchata.

My girls and I are usually pretty loud. We talk. We’re animated. We gush over the food.

But when we ate these tacos, we ate in silence because the food was that good. To speak would have taken us out of the moment. So we said nothing. We just sat there, lost in our own thoughts, luxuriating in tender meats, spicy red sauce, and complex flavors.

This is how you get tweens to enjoy family time: really good tacos.

And guess who told me about this place? The 12-year-old. Apparently, it’s trending. I recommend it too.“

“My Daughter & I had dinner here tonight… the food was PHENOMENAL!!! Great Friendly Service too!!

“Home of the best quesadillas in LA! This restaurant is a local gem. All of the food is delicious, the prices are great, and the staff is always friendly. We've ordered for pick-up and also eaten in the restaurant. Special bonus -- if you eat there you get free chips and salsa. They are in a strip mall off York that always has open parking spaces.“

“I've been to many burger spots in my life, but I've never had a burger as good as the Chef Burger from Burger Bun. I'm talking perfectly seasoned beef, and delicious (but not overpowering) burger sauce, crisp vegetables, and the brioche bun is spectacular. There's no burger in Glendale that even comes close. The wings are also some of the best I've ever had and the homemade sauces are so, so tasty. The fries are perfect, and they have amazing milkshakes too. To top it all off, the service is ridiculously good, and the prices are fair. This is my go-to spot in town.“

“These are without question the best Tamales I have ever had. If you have not had them, you have not lived. If you have had them, then I consider you my brother (or sista) and would die alongside you in battle against anyone who claims they know where another tamale spot is.“

“I recommend this place it has delicious food and the chef cook’s your food fast and you won’t regret it!! A must try!!“

“exelente servicio y muy rica comida“

“Great happy hour Mon-Fri 3-6. Inside is bright and spacious. There's a decent amount of seating in the main area. TVs over the bar to watch a game. There's also a large back area with picnic table seating and a small back outdoor patio. It's a good place for groups. The tacos are good. They're kind of a modern, fusion take. Not the usual street taco style. Can definitely recommend the open-faced quesadilla to help soak up the booze.

Service was good. Friendly staff. There's street parking but you might have to walk a block or two.“

“Ran over to this spot as it was the *only* option in walkable distance from my event install. The ladies working the front were so kind and patient with my lack of Spanish. I ordered a bacon, egg , cheese on a torta and it was WAY better than expected. Local spot, with good food. I bet their lunch/dinner options are delicious!“

“The friendly service is top notch.
The food tastes so homemade its unbelievable.
Great atmosphere especially when there is a musical trio that plays music there. Its so pleasing to have a place like this.
Restaurant is small but all the above attributes make up for the wait when it is full. The ladies there are just lovely.
Sorry I didn't take a pic of my food but I had the lengua en salsa roja with rice, beans and and a good supply of HOMEmade tortillas. Always delicious.“
