50 Best Taco Restaurants near Valley Glen

“Love the food here. The tacos are excellent and the quesadillas are phenomenal. The owners are super friendly, attentive, and the prices are fair. If you see their tent, run right to em and get a quesadilla stat!! Their barbacoa is some of the best I've ever had.“

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

“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.“

“Local Taqueria worth the stop.“

“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!“

“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!“

“Quien quiere tacos de etzatlan 😀😀😀😀😀👋👋👋 ricos de cabeza“

“sabrosisimas todas las tortas“

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

“👍People are very warm and accommodating“

“amazing food with an amazing chef. I came here before the hype and met the chef and he told me a little about the mission before they blew up and now it’s so cool to see him get his roses from all of his hard work.

the food is quality! the ribeye melts in your mouth, the pork belly is beautifully done and I love the suadero. make sure you get one of the agua frescas as well, the watermelon and jamaica are my favorite. i’ve had almost everything on the menu now and there isn’t a wrong choice. listen to your stomach you won’t be let down!“

“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“

“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!“

“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“

“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.“

“Ricooooo! Y limpio y la salsa picosa“

“Great waters and friendly staff :)“

“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.“

“Lovely restaurant with lovely staff!! I always find myself coming back here whenever im on melrose. The food and portions are amazing, and thank u so much to the chef that served me and my boyfriend extra tacos for free. That little act of kindness really made our day! 🩷“

“Love the people and food is amazing!!“

“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.“

“I tried the ground beef and chicken taco and they were delicious! My favorite part is that they didn’t make me feel bloated. They were light yet filling.
The fries were perfectly salted. The lady who took my order was super nice, great customer service.
Definitely recommend!“

“Best tacos of my life. Fresh tortillas, not too much cheese that was nicely toasted, and TONS of high quality meat. Not greasy, either. I’ve been to Angel’s and Villa’s, and those don’t even come close to these.“

“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!“

“One of the BEST tacos in L.A.! The alpastor and chicken tacos are SO GOOD! I had to go back and order two more of each one! They offer tacos, tortas, mulitas, and burritos! Their salsa is what really wraps up the tacos! 🔥 very spicy and flavorful! The meat was so tender, juicy and full of flavor. I had their agua fresca de Jamaica 🌸 and it was very good! They have a table and stools where you can sit and enjoy your food there. Highly recommend! 10/10“

“Delicious food and drinks!!!“

“Todo excelente estos si es birria estilo Tijuana 👍“

“These tacos hit the spot! We usually get asada, pastor, carnitas, and suedero but want to try the cueritos next time. Love that they use homemade tortillas! The guy taking orders even recognized us from the last time we were there and hooked it up with all the salsas and sides. Can’t wait to come back again soon! Thank you!“

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

“I have passed by this spot so many times and never knew these tacos were fire as hell..this place is a must and they speak English..bring some cash cause this place gonna have you spending not cause of the prices but cause you want more..check it out“

“Early to the Mint and want some restaurant-quality food but can skip the table service? Scoot across the street down a block for what is definitely the higher end of street tacos. Tablecloths and plenty of seating makes it more comfortable than hovering around. Family run. Will plan to dine again for the next show!“

“I order the Pollo Asado and my wife gets the shrimp burrito. I don't say this lightly ... I love the burritos here and the potato taquitos . Honestly one of my favorite burritos. I know I know, but seriously I can't think of a place better. Everything is so fresh and flavorful. It's a hit or miss with employees. Some days you'll get someone friendly other days not so much.“

“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 have been following tacos 1986 on Instagram (joy tostada) and have been wanting to try his tacos. we planned a family vacations to California to try their tacos and they did not disappoint. Tacos were DELICIOUS!! and the staff was very friendly. We even came in more than once to eat. Highly recommend it.“

“It's a 7/11 A little crustier than some but whattya want for a hot day in LA? I was thirsty and bought a bottle of water The clerk was nice The store was clean enough Enjoy! It's near a very cool post office!“

“I really enjoyed my time at Alma and was there to celebrate my 4-year anniversary. Unfortunately, the experience at the front entrance started off on the wrong foot. The person at the entrance initially told me that I did not have a reservation before checking again and finding my name. That was very disappointing and has never happened to me before, even when making reservations at restaurants in places like NYC and Miami, FL. Thankfully, everything else about my experience was good, and I still enjoyed my dinner and celebration. My advice to anyone planning to visit Alma is to come early rather than waiting until it gets late and busy. It seems that when things get crowded, there is a possibility that you may be overlooked or that your reservation may not be immediately recognized, even if you made it properly. Overall, I enjoyed my evening, but the experience at the entrance could definitely be improved.“

“Truck #2 in Tifton (Tuesday) was so good!! The lady working was so nice and the food was absolutely delicious. The frozen lemonades are my favorite!“

“Solid street style tacos which were delicious. Lots of meat options, we tried the chicken, al pastor and carne asada tacos. They have all toppings available separately including 3 different salsas. Service was quick, they accept cash, Venmo and Zelle! 3 tacos was perfect for me, they are on the small size but fairly packed with meat.“

“Not a long wait, and the food was AWESOME!!! My son and I will be back!“

“The food was absolutely amazing. The service and ambience was great.“

“Random place I found and I was not disappointed what so ever ! I got a pastor burrito and the fact that it’s not basic meat rice beans was what I loved it had that and more pico de gallo guacamole! Will be here again ! Keep up the great work“

“Nice Yogurtland location, typical as they all are... This one seems to be a little more expensive than in the Basin....“

“This place is the best spot to get Mexican food! They serve the most delicious quesadillas, the tastiest burritos, and the best tacos you’ll find anywhere. The quality is always excellent, everything is fresh, full of flavor, and made with great care. It’s honestly the best quesadilla and burrito I’ve ever had. These guys really know what they’re doing when it comes to Mexican food!“

“Will drive 6 hours away to Come eat here any day 🌮“

“Las conchitas de Taro son deliciosas y Araceli me atendio miy bien“

“We love coming to this spot for the Al pastor tacos, they open in the afternoon around 4:30 when we went so sometimes we miss them after our Chipotle run, we love that they serve the tacos loaded with meat so that adds a lot more meat to our chipotle bowl 😆 we have created the best of both worlds. & great free parking with the parking lot in that same corner is a plus.“
