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

“Incredible burritos and quesadillas !! I love how consistent this spot is, it never misses. Super high quality protein and generous portions. The steak is my favorite but honestly can't go wrong. Don't forget to add the toum arbol sauce on the side it's unbelievable :)“

“pasamos de pasadita guiados por los reviews y nos sorprendió los mejores tacos de birria qué hemos comido. recomendamos al 100 por 100“

“Bombest burrito in LA. He brings professional hospitality to the street taco game. First time I stopped by after a long early morning shift at a coffee cart and I was greeted as I walked up. He walked me through their offerings. I wanted to try their al pastor but was too hungry for a couple tacos so I ordered it as a burrito and man, amazingly tasty. He has a flat top grill and grills the burritos *chef's kiss. I'm all for street tacos of all kinds in LA but I'd venture to say this is the cleanest operation I've been to. He takes cash but also venmo or Zelle and has all that easily accessible. Ordered a carne asada burrito this evening and it's truly ministering to me“

“My boyfriend and I came here yesterday for the first time to celebrate our anniversary. The food was incredible, the staff were lovely, and the music and atmosphere was great! We absolutely loved the food- we got birria ramen, kpasa fries, and a birria quesadilla. OMG soooo delicious, we were both so happy. We loved it here and will definitely be coming back again! <3“

“Local Taqueria worth the stop.“

“las gringas espevialidad de la casa“

“love simon. recently the quality has decreased a bit, with twice getting soggy oily tacos that just dont have the care put into them that they used to. the new digital ordering tablet is really bad. i also wish they would put their salsas into to-go cups for you so it would be cleaner than a communal station. four stars because they used to be my favorite truck in la and i know what they’re capable of!“

“The place has suadero! That's brisket in ingles! And the meat ratio is excellent; no skimping. Plus the amount of salsas and toppings provide for endless flavor combinations! Perhaps the best I've encountered in the in LA and maybe in Cali too! I say this as a native Angeleno and the son of Mexicans. I've tasted all the styles from San Francisco's Mission Street to Chula Vista. So happy I found this place! Es toda una chulada este lugar, riquísimo!!!“

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

“sabrosisimas todas las tortas“

“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“

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

“Avocado Fresh Mexican Grill was a great find. I ordered one of their bowls, and it was fresh, flavorful, and packed with hearty portions—exactly what you want from a build-your-own Mexican bowl. Everything tasted vibrant, and the ingredients were clearly high quality.

The staff was also incredibly friendly and helpful, making the experience even better. Overall, a delicious meal and great service. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Ricooooo! Y limpio y la salsa picosa“

“I always passed by here and assumed it wouldn't taste authentic and when I finally decided to stop by and test it out I was proven wrong. The Birria Torta tasted amazing and melts in your mouth. It has avocado in it with no extra charge and the price is very reasonable. It costs less than food truck. 10/10 would recommend.“

“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“

“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!“

“the food looks and tastes authentic. They have a hand-made tortilla option. I recommend "una de surtido a mano" trust fam“

“This place is a gem. My wife loved the chicken tacos and the chorizo tacos. I tried the chorizo and potato burrito and it was bomb. Reminds me of the homemade ones my grandma used to make me. The red salsa was also fire. Had to order extra tacos to go for dinner. Did I mention the prices? Talk about bang for your buck! Definitely my new go to spot.“

“I went yesterday for the first time with my kids.
My parents invited me, since they said they had been there before and know i love tacos/tortas/etc.
The kids and i loved it.

Kid-friendliness: They gave my kids lollipops after.“

“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.“

“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!“

“This should be a case study or TED talk about how a team can be successful.

This is a very organized, efficient and cool little street taco stand. Everybody there had a great attitude and attention to detail and service for all the customers there.

If we lived here we'd be back regularly.“

“Muy buenos los tacos, hoy dogs, militas, burritos. Todo muy bueno“

“This place was highly recommended. I had their carne asada burrito 🌯. It was a generous portion of fresh meat, rice & beans. The red salsa made it tastier. I had to save half for later as it was filling. Will definitely return!“

“I'm here at an amazing spot on hillhurst in Los Feliz across from Albertsons... A staple for Mexican foods for sure 💯 I had the carne asada burrito and it's just so bomb.. the burrito was HUGE. like ol' school huge 👌 probably the most authentic Ive had in 15+ years ❤️❤️❤️❤️ ... You need to come here like now! ...Also... A drink was included. 👌 Kudos El Ruso 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 ill totally be back for sure. 🧑‍🍳👩‍🍳👨‍🍳 🤗 ....aaaand I just had their tacos 👌 holeee shit. 🖖👌👌👌🙏❤️💯✂️ Get the tacos ❤️“

“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.“

“So fire. The shells are perfectly crispy and crunchy. They hold their shape and don’t get soggy despite the juicy meat. The chicken was so good. The fries…I’ll be back for the fries alone. I love that it’s basically a walk up window, very “taco bar” vibes. They know what they’re doing here. Reasonably priced too!“

“Going to every taco truck/stand in the area to find my favorite. I’ve only been to 5 so far but this one is winning. I only get carne asada so that’s what I’m basing my judgement on, can’t speak for the rest, but if it’s anything like the asada then I’m sure it is fire.“

“HomeState delivers a Tex-Mex experience that’s nothing short of spectacular. The quesadilla, a golden masterpiece of melty cheese and perfectly griddled tortilla, strikes an ideal balance of comfort and flavor, substantial yet never heavy. Four distinct tacos showcased a vibrant range of fillings, each one a testament to HomeState’s mastery of Texas-inspired cuisine. From smoky brisket to bright, zesty chicken and beef options, every taco bursts with bold, authentic flavors, wrapped in warm, pillowy tortillas that elevate the experience to something truly special. House-made salsas add layers of complexity, making each bite a revelation.

The freshly squeezed lemonade proves the perfect partner, its crisp, not-too-sweet brightness cutting through the richness of the meal with refreshing finesse. HomeState’s atmosphere radiates warmth and Austin charm, blending a laid-back vibe with a welcoming energy. Staff move with efficiency and genuine friendliness, ensuring every dish arrives hot and fresh. Other reviews often highlight the breakfast tacos and migas as must-tries, and while those weren’t on the plate this time, the menu’s depth promises more delicious adventures on the next visit.“

“Todo excelente estos si es birria estilo Tijuana 👍“

“me encantaron las hamburguesas!“

“No need to add pictures here guys! Amazing food doesn’t need justification have to experience it! Let me start by letting everyone know that they let you make your OWN BURRITOS!! Who the hell let’s you do this? Not like chipotle acting like they do which isn’t even legit Mexican food.. ( At least not that I know ) they serve your protein on the tortilla and let you scoop out whatever else you would like, this-is insane !! Anyways my wife and I were so excited to try Tacos El Gordito after a horrible experience at el TAURINO! Tacos El Gordito TEAM has down to earth & genuine people, I could not believe they were here under this rain 😬 but were here to make us happy and serve their amazing tasting food. Btw if you like tripa and suadero please don’t hesitate! Its amazing!! Nether the less everything else…“

“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!“

“My girlfriend and I live up the street and we walk here all the time. The food is amazing easily The best burritos I’ve ever had. I have to agree with everybody else the flank steak though is the best thing on the menu so good I recommend this place to anybody. The staff is amazing friendly and I never wanna eat tacos/burritos anywhere else“

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

“What an awesome find. Been to the best all over Los Angeles and this ranks up there in the top 5. Everything is very high quality and made with love. Best birria I have had in LA. Very high quality shrimp and carne asada tacos. The family who owns is also super nice and made my daughter a quesadilla on the house. Nice thoughtful touch.“

“Great tacos and service. My favorite taco stand in Los Angeles. If they could add black beans and green lemons (when I went there were only bay beans and yellow lemons) the business would be absolute perfection. Even without them they are excellent but it would be good to reach an incredible authentic level. May they continue to be successful!“

“The best tacos in California!“

“👍People are very warm and accommodating“

“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!“

“There are probably a dozen taco stands in my area, I'm picky and this one is by far my favorite! The people are incredibly friendly and the food is amazing! I always get either that Al Pastor Burrito with cheese or the Burria Burrito with cheese and I ask them to toast the outside of the tortilla. The green avocado salsa is delicious and not spicy at all. They do have several spicy salsas if you're interested. I can't recommend this place more. I have also seen them at an event so if you need to cator an event give them a call.“

“WOW! I was getting a little impatient while waiting for my order, because it was “just a food truck”. But when the food was ready, the care with which they prepared it was evident. We had shrimp tacos, marlin plate, and ceviche. Everything was excellent! My wife said the best shrimp tacos she’s ever had. This quality food could easily be served in a higher-end restaurant.“

“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.“

“😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍“

“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.“
