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“

“Local Taqueria worth the stop.“

“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.“

“👍People are very warm and accommodating“

“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!“

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

“las gringas espevialidad de la casa“

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

“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!“

“sabrosisimas todas las tortas“

“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!“

“WORTH ALL THE HYPE!

Sadly that also meant be prepared to wait in long line especially on peak dinner time, which was right at their opening time. We did come on Saturday which probably made it worse.

Nothing fancy, it’s basically occupying a spot on the Pavilion’s parking lot at Hollywood. Quite limited chairs provided so it’s not uncommon seeing people eating while standing or using their car’s trunk.

We got their crowd’s favorite Ribeye and Flank Steak, both of which were indeed so so good in their own ways. Chunky juicy meats on top of the blue corn tortilla. Everything’s cooked fresh to order and they didn’t go complicated with sauce on top of your taco, which even made the meat more stand out, being so flavorful on its own.

If you felt like us and wanna try something beyond beef, certainly go for their Al Pastor, which was also luscious and I’d definitely come back again for.

Don’t forget opt for extra melted cheese on your taco!“

“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!“

“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“

“Everyone thinks LA food is great ,this is big mistake,it’s really hard to find tasty and nice place ,where you would love to be back again .But want to share this place ,it’s called Great white I will promise you will want to come back.

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

“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 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“

“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.“

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

“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.“

“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! 🩷“

“Todo excelente estos si es birria estilo Tijuana 👍“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

“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“

“Ricooooo! Y limpio y la salsa picosa“

“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!“

“Love the people and food is amazing!!“

“Whichever Tu Madre location you go to, it’s a good vibe. They seem to have changed up the menu a little bit (not for the better according to my veg friend as they messed w her favorite taco) so buyer beware. But you can beat the outside patio at the Los Feliz location. And they have a secret tiny parking lot adjacent that I never knew about! Agua Fresca are refreshing, tacos delicious, service excellent- all around a place to frequent.“

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

“they take debit & credit cards, very clean awesome variety dishes👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼highly recommended, affordable 👌😍😋,💯⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“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!“

“Ordered al pastor tacos and burritos here and they were really good. The meat had that nice char and not too greasy for me. The flavors were well balanced and everything tasted fresh. It can get a little busy, but overall it’s a solid spot.“

“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“

“Great waters and friendly staff :)“

“Delicious food and drinks!!!“

“Everything I ordered at Guac Daddy was so fresh and delicious! The Deluxe Box is perfect when you want a little bit of everything. It comes with two tacos, a quesadilla, a vampiro, a mulita, plus totopos and guac. I also had the hibiscus rose drink and finished with the churros, which were the perfect sweet ending. Great portions, bold flavors, and not a single disappointing bite. I’ll definitely be back!“

“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!“

“Excellent tocos along Santa Monica boulevard! 🌮🌮🌮“

“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!“

“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.“

“I’ve been coming here for years, and I stopped by again recently. Honestly, it’s just as good as I remember from a couple years ago. The burritos are still packed with flavor, the ingredients taste fresh, and the portions are solid. It’s nice to see that the quality hasn’t changed at all. The service was friendly too, and everyone was quick and welcoming. Definitely one of those places that’s stayed consistent over the years, and I’ll definitely keep coming back.“

“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.“

“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!“
