“Food was delicious! We tried the molotes de plátano, which are three small, crispy banana fritters filled with cheese, served on top of a rich, flavorful mole sauce. We also enjoyed tacos de suadero, tender brisket cooked to perfection; Taco Sonia, a specialty with beef rib, chorizo, potatoes, and cactus; and flor de calabaza quesadilla, a savory quesadilla filled with tender squash blossoms and cheese. Additionally, there was a daily special: taco de huitlacoche, made with truffle-like corn fungus that has a smoky, earthy flavor. All dishes were served with warm, homemade tortillas made from fresh maize dough, enhancing the authentic taste.“

“What's better late night snack than Ave 26 tacos? It's located in a parking lot, and we pulled in around 10pm on a Sunday night. People from all colors and all walks of life seem to converge here in search of scrumptious bites. There's a security guard that patrols the area so you could enjoy your chow without hesitation. It's standing room only, no utensils or sitting area provided. We decided to eat in the car as it's a bit chilly that night. There's also a portable water station to wash hands before or after you dig in.

There's a separate line for tacos or burritos or drinks, pay in cash or Apple/ Samsung Pay. Simple and orderly. Then, head over to the condiments section for different types of salsa, chopped onions or lime. The Al Pastor, Carne Asada, Cabeza and Lengua are usually my go to, but there're also brisket, pork belly, chorizo to choose from.“

“Exquisito todo y el servicio excelente yo si regreso“

“Excelente lugar y excelente comida“

“Stopped at La Casita Mexicana after work on Friday and their carnitas tacos were incredible. The salsa bar had like six different options and the green one had a nice kick to it. Service was friendly and my food came out pretty quick even though they were busy. I'll probably make this my regular spot for tacos.“

“The location in Echo Park Sunset is my favorite. It's an old world Los Angeles
Institution. I find the food is better here and it's not as hectic as the West Hollywood location. I think they have the best taqueria salsa I've ever had. They make their own chips. They make your guacamole fresh. They have a huge menu, and I think everything is quite good. Don't come looking for a great salads, it's just not the place for that. The atmosphere is amazing, bathrooms are spotless in the evening there is valet parking. During the day you can find some street parking. For anyone with difficulty managing stairs the front door comes right off the street.“

“The best food!! 100% recommended totally worth the wait in line! Food is amazing!!“

“Food & service is always amazing! I left my wallet there & the staff helped me retrieve it when they were closed! They went above & beyond to help me -“

“We stopped here before heading to a party where we didn't know if there would be food. I wasn't starving but when I tell you I could have eaten at least 6 more of the elote tamales, I could have. Holy moly, so so so good. My husband and best friend each had a mini taco sampler plate and said all of their tacos were incredible, also! I will seriously be craving those tamales for a long time!“

“Buenísimos las mejores carnitas“

“Isidra provided outstanding customer service from the moment we walked in. It was our first time visiting, and she truly made us feel welcomed by taking the time to greet us warmly and walk us through the menu with patience and care. The ambiance of the restaurant was inviting and paired perfectly with the exceptional hospitality, creating a wonderful overall experience. We ordered the combo with a shrimp taco and a fish taco, served with rice and beans, and everything was absolutely delicious and well prepared. The agua de sandía was incredibly refreshing and full of flavor. From the food to the service, everything exceeded our expectations. We will definitely be returning and recommending this place to others.“

“Delicious authentic Mexican food, Great customer service!“

“A bit late, but I just have to share our incredible experience at La Fonda! We were a group of nine heading to a concert at the Kia Forum, so we already had some challenges—limited time before the show and managing a large group. I was prepared for things to be tricky, but Frances and the team made the entire evening seamless and absolutely stress-free.\n\nFrances was exceptional from the start. Her communication was clear, professional, and prompt, and she handled our group with such ease and expertise. She truly went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfectly timed for us to enjoy our dinner and make it to the concert without a hitch.\n\nWhen we arrived, the restaurant was bustling (there were other large groups also heading to the Kia Forum), but despite how busy it was, everything ran like clockwork. Our food arrived on time, and every single dish was delicious—every person in our group was impressed. The service was impeccable, even during such a high-pressure, busy time.\n\nParking? No issues at all, which is such a bonus when you’re on a tight schedule. And when it was time to head out, the staff made sure we had clear directions to the Kia Forum, saving us time and hassle.\n\nLa Fonda is now officially our go-to spot for pre-concert dinners! Fantastic food, flawless service, and a team that truly understands how to take care of their guests—even on a hectic night. Highly recommend!“

“El chato taco has quickly become my favorite place for tacos in West LA. Their al pastor is juicy and flavorful, and I always go for the salsa verde. The portions are generous, and the tacos are reasonably priced. The place has a chill vibe, and I’ve always had good service. It’s a great spot for a quick and tasty bite“

“Célebre mi Cumpleaños 🎂 todo espectacular, solo quería comprar Mole en la tienda y estaba cerrada temprano o se fueron a comer por unas horas fue raro eso.“

“Service was good food was good. Small place but great will go back. They had a large party and looks like they just started so they offer to give free fruit drinks because the large party was taking their present. Portion was not small but not to little. Come and enjoy.“

“An organization I’m a part of was looking for a place to gather afterwards. I reached out to multiple locations, Ian was the most responsive and excited to host us. He was accommodating to our group of ~30 people. He and the staff were so friendly and took care of orders quickly. Will definitely be back for dinner and drinks!“

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

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

“Came here this morning, their cafe de Hoya is so delicious straight out of the pot. We had chilaquiles, enchiladas, birria de res and costillas de puerco. All of the food was so delicious, and completely worth the drive. Our server Ernes was so sweet, welcoming and attentive. But god I can’t not stress how good their coffee was 😩“

“Me encantan los tacos y burritos de cabeza.“

“We got the most amazing server in the restaurant. Carmen treated us as if we were family and boy did she have wonderful jokes. She made sure that our food was made to perfection. If you haven’t tried Mr Menudo in Downey, you have no idea what you are missing. Take your family, friends and that one crazy tia an ask for Carmen, she will amaze you with her beautiful way of being. Tell her that Michelle sent you. 😉“

“I love this place. I am from Mexico and this place is just perfect, same quality of a good good restaurant in Oaxaca. The hand made Tortillas are the best in Los Angeles, loved the mole, I had the chile relleno, and it was an amazing vegetarian option for me. Service was so warm and friendly. I want to take all my friends to this place so Definitely I will be back!“

“Had breakfast at Tenampal and loved it! The Anthony Special is a must-try — half chilaquiles in mole and half in green sauce with eggs on top. So good! The café de olla was delicious too. The staff here are super friendly and make you feel really welcome. Definitely coming back!“

“Muy buenos los recomiendo excelente servicio“

“Wow! So glad we found this wonderful and authentic Mexican restaurant right by my hubby's work place while traveling to southern California so we do not have to fight through the 35 minutes driving 5 miles in downtown LA traffic! 😅

Their chip & salsa, first of all, was simply amazing and different! We tried their signature dish Pollo con Rajas Con Crema and the Steak Fajitas and they were beautifully plated and so tasty! You could tell the dishes are of great ingredients with simple seasoning to not take away from the freshness.

They then recommended Guayabate with Ice Cream for dessert plus sharing with us how this is a very authentic dessert from Mexico but as eaten with shaved ice. They modified now with French Vanilla Ice cream as the base and the fusion culinary creation is just the best! 😋

It was combined with the Mexican Coffee - Cafe de Olla which is a little bit sweeten but with a very strong and well balanced taste that's very different than your regular American standard coffee!

We enjoy everything we had here including our server who is very knowledgeable and hospitable. When we visit LA next time, we will definitely try to come again!“

“This spot is soooo good! The staff had such great energy and it showed in how delicious the food was! The bread on the torta was so fresh and that corn tortilla was out of this woooorld. I also had a really great spicy marg with mezcal. I will be back.“

“Best mezcal margarita I’ve had. You need to get the churros for dessert - eat them first before you regret not saving space for them!!! This place is very cool and laid back. Easy to order, quick service. Fish flautas were my favorite!“

“So delicious! Many selections for all palettes!“

“Delicioso, es como estar en Sinaloa“

“Muy buenos taco’s deliciosos“

“The best tacos in California!“

“the fish is fresh and yum. not flakey fish.“

“Food was great our server Dominique was great!“

“Big food portions. Food a bit bland we got the chicken quesadilla and a burrito. The salsa helps..
We sat outside and instantly regretted it.
The speaker was right above us and was insanely loud. If I was in town I'd try it again!“

“Best food in town and sports merchandise“

“Perfect for these dog days of Summer.“

“Excelente servicio y comida de calidad ☑️“

“Their handmade tortillas and braised meat tacos are incredible. I love the cochinita pibil and the chorizo tacos. It’s counter-service, but the food comes out quickly. Seating is limited inside, but there are tables outside too. One of the best spots for authentic tacos“
