Service was good for fast food.

There are tables in a gss station almost never going to be the best atmosphere... but it works.“

“Best taco stand in Los Angeles. The Barbacoa is the best I've ever tried, the habanero sauce is fire. Tacos, burritos, quesadillas, nachos you can't go wrong with anything. Plus the bar is amazing. Overall great experience.

Vegetarian options: Veggie tacos, burritos, quesadillas, and nachos“

“This place has the best carnitas I've had from this place all the way to the border in San Diego. Juicy, flavorful carnitas with the skins. I ordered 1lb of just meat. Side of their gauca salsa and a red and green salsa. The green salsa is very, very good. Red is also very good. Just randomly looked for a Mexican place near me and this was a hit. Cannot recommend the carnitas enough“

I want to take all my friends to this place so Definitely I will be back!“

“So glad my daughter and I stopped here. We each had breakfast burritos and they were excellent. Not only delicious, but big. We both tried the hot salsa and liked it. The atmosphere was very inviting. The service was the best I've received in a very long time. The server was very attentive and sweet. The cook came out and asked if we were enjoying our meal. He was interested in our feedback. We both decided we would be back even though we don't live in the area. It was definitely worth the effort of finding parking. Don't pass this place up
PS, the cook let us try the birria. That's what I'm ordering next time. Yum“

“I passed this place a dozen times. This morning I was craving some breakfast. I asked for something that was not even on the menu. A chilaquiles burrito. He said I will be happy to make it for you. It was awesome! Everything I wanted wrapped in that burrito. Great place the owner is so friendly and gracious. I highly recommend that everyone support this wonderful small business!“

“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.“

“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“

“I’ve been here twice in last week, and absolutely LOVE the red enchiladas. I’ve been missing the enchiladas back in my hometown and these have the same homemade feel. The chips are incredible, and the mild salsa with cilantro is to die for. Will definitely be making this a frequent stop of mine here in Los Angeles. So happy I found this place, if you’re on the fence about going, go try it!! You won’t be disappointed.“

“Love the Place, Will join again“

“The service is friendly and fast and delightful. My daughter loves their salsa for chips …it’s the only salsa she likes. Service is so sincere and attentive. It’s our first time here and it’s super cozy and the food is absolutely the best Mexican I have had. There are lights on the ceiling and it’s super Duper beautiful.“

“😋 their sopas a very delicious….“

“We are a family from Taiwan who enjoyed wonderful breakfasts here for three consecutive days. The staff were patient and explained each dish in detail; despite the language barrier, the service quality remained outstanding. The food was delicious and generously portioned—I especially recommend the Sausage and the Asada Plate (the Beef Ribs option might be even better). Thank you to the team for your attentive hospitality; you set the tone for a great day of travel!“

“I came to Google to review this place and help them out, but I see they already have amazing reviews and rightfully so.
I’ve been ordering caldo de Albondigas (meatball soup) to go for the last five years and it never disappoints. They give you all the fixings like cilantro, onion, limes, and handmade tortillas along with chips and salsa. I most recently ordered Chilaquiles Verdes as I did not want to pay $15 at el zarape (nearby) For the same proportion (eggs not included) and no sides. The Chilaquiles from El Comal come with eggs, a side of rice and beans, chips and salsa for $16. Worth it. The to-go packaging on this plate could use something more sturdy, but they could serve it on a sheet of aluminum foil and I would still eat it. It’s that good. The salsa is an enjoyable spicy yet flavorful. 10/10 would recommend“

“Fantastic food and great service“

“There are times when you try a new place and you walk away saying... I'll never be back... Then every once in a while there's a place that over exceeds your expectations and you say hummm... Now, that's worth coming back for...
Great menu choices...
Great atmosphere...
Great food presentation...
Great ingredients...
Great service...
Everything a small mom and pops restaurant should be.“

“Was pretty good, loved the verde sauce and atmospheric grit. Was at the Hollywood Heritage Museum book sale today and saw the original vintage photos of the place. Very cool!“

“Desde que conocí este lugar para mí como oaxaqueño ha sido similar a tener un pequeño pedazo de mi tierra. La anatomía de una tlayuda sencilla hasta en los puestos de la calle es: la tlayuda, asiento, frijol, QUESILLO y verdura, pero… que te cobren el quesillo como un extra…??!!, entiendo la carne, pero el quesillo…????!!!! Eso es demasiado, tal vez en otro platillos en entendible, pero en una tlayuda…???!!! Fuera de eso, sigue estando rico todo.“

“💯 recomendable excelente servio y comida. Valió la pena la hora de camino. Todo muy muy sabroso“

“The owner and all workers make you feel at home with their pleasant attitude Food is delicious“

“What a beautiful restaurant for a night out. From the moment I walked in, it felt like I was stepping into the most beautiful restaurant with a front row view to the fountains and some good food. My favorite was the esquite. With every bite I took, I felt the tangy flavor from the seasonings and it was delightful! Not too overpowering. I ended the night with dessert and it was amazing.“

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

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

“Excelente servicio y muy buena la comida“

“I like this stand very much and that's what it is stand. But the business is right behind it making hundreds of tamales. They have a good variety that are well stuffed. Not like some of the street vendors that you don't know which ones are the ones with mostly maza very lil meat. Besides that they're pretty big very moist with salsa included. Red or green depending on your hot tolerance. Hmmm good imma go get me some!!!!“

“This is a family favorite, I’ve been coming to this restaurant since the early 2000s.

Excellent comfort homade style meals. Portions are big, prices are low. Service is fairly fast even when busy.
Employees have always been kind & patient.“

“My girlfriend and I come here almost every time we’re in LA. Their happy hour is 3-630 and I highly recommend the happy hour mini tacos. The drinks are affordable and pack a punch. The service is always top notch. Isabella was great and the bartender Will is so knowledgeable and full of great recommendations. We will always be back! ❤️“

“I went here for lunch after the access hollywood tour and I had the carnitas tacos. I’m a carnitas snob and these carnitas were the best I ever had!“

“Authentic Mexican food. Best Magaritas along with good music and service“
