Everything was fresh and satisfying, and the service was excellent. Everyone was friendly and welcoming, and my order was taken care of quickly. I had a great experience and would definitely come back!“

“Joselito’s is such an amazing restaurant! I had, probably, the best carnitas dinner and chips and guacamole (made fresh to order) I’ve ever experienced. A must go to whenever in the Tujunga area.“

“Wonderful customer service. Nice women. And the tacos are excellent. Tortillas are not greasy or oily chicken tacos come with a lot of meat and it’s very tender. The free chips and salsa is also a huge plus and those are also amazing. The chips are not greasy at all.“

“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.

Lots of parking around the corner on Commerce Avenue.“

Thank you for such a great Saturday night treat for an out of town Momma visiting her daughter!! I’ll beg her to come everytime I’m in town, and be very Jealous that she gets to come whenever she wants!!! EVERYTHING was BEYOND DELICIOUS!! Bravo!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻“

“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.“

“Great waters and friendly staff :)“

“Yummy food. Good customer service. Very nice people“

“Tacos and Kabobs has become one of my favorite places for carryout. The staff is always genuinely friendly and welcoming, and the food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and delicious. You can tell they take pride in what they serve.

One thing I really appreciate is how hard they try to accommodate any changes or dietary requests you may have. They listen, they care, and they do their best to make sure your order is exactly the way you want it.

I usually get my food to go, but they also have a clean, well-lit dining room with TVs if you want to sit down and enjoy your meal there. Good food, good people, and the kind of neighborhood place you’re happy to support.

Highly recommend Tacos and Kabobs. Give them a try. I think you’ll be glad you did!“

“Love the people and food is amazing!!“

“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.“

“exelente servicio y muy rica comida“

“Delicious food and drinks!!!“

“We have been going to Don Cuco’s for many many years!!! Family celebrations are always fun & tasty !!“

“My Family And I , Really Enjoyed, Pablo, Gave Us A Great Experience!!!! Will Be Back!!! Love It, And Great Food!!!“

“fantastic service! burritos were amazing. small and intimate. thank you! we'll be back again.“

“Absolute home run, what a gem. Will be back ASAP…one of the most amazing meals of my life. Of the thousands of tacos I’ve probably eaten, these were my favorite. No lie, no exaggeration. Almost a religious experience…SO good.

Ruby took great care of me, had great recs. Really fantastic choices on the tap list, and had a jalapeño slaw fish, ribeye, pork belly. Each unique and exploding with flavor. Asked for hot sauce with the order then never touched it…that may be a first. Met the owner, and 2 other employees…great people.

Guys, you crushed it. Can’t wait to come back, everything about this meal was beyond top notch. I loved it so much. Thank you!“

“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.“

“I live about 90 minutes away from Ernie’s but it is probably my favorite restaurant. Anytime I am in the area, like after a day at Universal, it is my go to place to eat. I just love it!!! Can’t wait for my next visit.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Delicious 😋 very good food,freshly made everything fresh 👍🏼“

“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!!“

“Love Taco Social! What really stands out is the variety of tacos. There are so many different flavors and unique combinations that everyone can find something they like. The delicious tacos alone are good enough to give this place 5 stars, but the amazing sides and full bar really put it over the top! The food is flavorful, the atmosphere is casual and fun, and it's a great spot to go with friends or family. Definitely worth checking out!“

“🙂👍 Sergio does a great job!“

“Absolutely the best brunch 🤩“

“Ricas enchiladas la birria y por supuesto los huchepos 👌👌👌“

“good test 👌 good service“

“La birria está muy rica ...!!! (chivo) RECOMENDADO!!!“

“I love this place. Great ambiance and nice attentive staff!!“

“Came for the Frenchicano Toast, stayed for the 80s-00s music throwback. As a millennial, I grew up with my parents Latin music. As I enjoyed the passion fruit whipped cream literally melting into the brioche bread, I was surprised to hear the legendary playlist featuring major pop singers of the Gen X era. Eye catching memorabilia on the walls and counters will keep you busy as you remember big names from TV, movies, cartoons, books and general entertainment.
I will be back to try some of their other palette intriguing items such as three Huitlacoche (hard to find anywhere) and borrego.

Street parking. Came for brunch so there was plenty but I'm sure that in their peak hours it might be harder to find. But its perfect for a date night or stroll as enjoyment should never be rushed.“

“👍 good food and nice people“

“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.“

“Muy rica comida excelente servicio, muy amables todos 🥰“

“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 Queso Tacos and San Marcos Style Tacos Dorados, with consome, are hands down the real deal. So delicious! The Cucumber Agua Fresca was the perfect compliment drink. Best in the Valley.“
