I stopped by this taco shop and ordered four tacos—two asada and two al pastor. The asada tacos were solid, with flavorful meat topped with fresh onions, cilantro, and green salsa. They had a nice char, though they were a bit oily. Still, I enjoyed them overall.
The al pastor tacos were disappointing—the meat was dry, bland, and notably missing pineapple, which is usually a key ingredient in traditional al pastor. Like the asada, they were topped with onion, cilantro, and salsa, but just didn’t hit the mark flavor-wise.
The tortillas had a decent chew, but didn’t seem homemade—they were very uniform, which made them feel store-bought. The plate came with grilled onions, radish slices, and limes, which were a nice touch. I wished I could have gotten a grilled jalapeño—I saw them in other reviews and was hoping it came standard, but no luck this time.
Pricing was a bit steep at $16 for four tacos, with no sides or drinks included. Definitely more in line with L.A. taco stand pricing, which feels high for what was offered. That said, they do have Taco Wednesdays for $2/taco, which seems like a much better value and may be the best day to go.
The guy wearing a blue car wash polo who took my order and made the food was incredibly kind and welcoming. He was fast, attentive, and seemed to take pride in his work, which made the experience more enjoyable.
Seating is limited to three small outdoor tables near the ordering window, shaded by a tree. It’s a casual setup, but it can get a bit loud due to nearby street traffic.
Overall, a mixed experience: friendly service and decent asada, but the al pastor and pricing didn’t live up to expectations. I might return on a Wednesday to give it another shot—hopefully with a grilled jalapeño next time.

Loved this place! So affordable and delicious, the staff was very polite and friendly. Would definitely be back if we drive through again. Carnitas tacos were the best !

Honestly the flautas were some of the best I’ve ever had and I grew up in LA. The food is clearly being made by folks who care and know how to cook. My husband had the Cubano and that was bomb too.

There’s about 30 tacos places on the way from Humboldt to San Francisco and this one is by far the best. Come here anytime you’re passing through. They’re simple street tacos: cilantro, onion, protein, but it’s all you need. The carne asada was perfect but the pollo and al pastor were also knockouts.

I would likely recommend anyone who passes by pay a stop here. They offer the best authentic mexican food I have had so far. Everything i tried here is delicious. Portion is big too.
Recommend doing takeout as they only offer outdoor seating, and there are flies fighting food with you while eating. :)
From Monday to Friday, they open until 7pm, but they stop taking orders around 6:30pm based on what I saw.

Don't understand the high rates reviews for this place. It's just Tacos and nothing else and the prices have jumped to $4 per taco. I tried three and thought the meats were all very dry and overcooked. They did add aline that I was hoping would add some juice, but I couldn't squeeze one drop out of the line wedge.. Only has outdoor seating which was dirty. Had much better for less.

The Torta Cubana is my favorite. Their burger is delicious, as are the tacos, flautas, and quesadilla. I've never been disappointed by a meal at Johnny's. If you haven't paid them a visit maybe you should.
Parking: It's a big parking lot with lines on it that show where you can put your car. There is room for roughly 30 - 80 vehicles.
Great spot for lunch. Friendly, clean, and fab food!
Parking: Plenty of parking with grassy spots for the pups

I had the pleasure of dining at Taco House, and I must say it was an unforgettable experience. The tacos were hands down the best I've ever had, and the warmth and friendliness of the owner added a delightful touch to the visit. If I were a local, I would make it a point to visit this charming establishment regularly. Scrumptious in every way!
