I was told about this place from an out of town coworker that has relatives near by. The owner/cook was very hospitable and everything was surprisingly low priced. Tacos were very tasty and well balanced. I would go back definitely. The only thing I didn’t really like was the parking lot cause its entrance is very close to a busy blvd with fast traffic. You have to exit very carefully. I recommend either parking in the back, side street or back in.

Tacos are $2.50 and are soft tacos, as of August 2025. Carne asada, buche, chicken, tripas, al pastor and I think one more They have aguas frescas like horchata. Nothing else on the menu.
Closed on Mondays.
Only downside is parking is limited. But the tacos are great! Strongly recommend checking them out.
First time here! Highly recommend!! A hole in the wall taco shop, which are always the best… Great spot to grab a quick bite to eat! Tocos are super delicious 😋! They have a different flavor to them than other taco shops around! Small tacos though. I ordered 4, but could have easily ate 12 tocos. Price is right! The salsa is homemade and goes great with the tocos! The salsa makes it taste delicious! I will definitely be back for lunch! The service was excellent, and friendly! They know what customer service means!! Thank you 🙏 and see you soon!

I have been coming to eat tacos here since I was a child and the food, service, and atmosphere has always been excellent and consistent. This place holds a special place in my heart and anytime I am in Whittier, I stop by and enjoy some tacos.

First time eating here. I’m going off of previous reviews. I ordered 2 tacos de asada and 2 tacos of al pastor and both meat’s were really flavorful. Street tacos for $2.25 each, great deal for what you get. The only thing, it says on their Google page that they take credit cards, well they have a ATM machine inside for a fee you can take money out. If not it’s really CASH Only. I’ll be going back for sure. Also their salsa was on point for my taste buds. Girl behind the register was really nice as well. Only bad thing is the parking, if you park head first you have to back out onto Whittier Blvd, scary 😬

It's ok, but I received a wrong item and it's a cash only place, and for me it was inconvenient.
Chemas tacos are classic, clean, fresh, bomb!
There are no better tacos anywhere in Los Angeles. These ARE “The Best Tacos In Town.” I drive over an hour to eat here.

Good tacos all around, but my favorite here is the sesos tacos. Delicious food.
Great tacos at a fair price. One of, if not the best, Mom and Pop taco place in Whittier.
P.S. they only make and sell tacos ?

I go for my grandma often & she loves the place, i unfortunately do not. Ive tried the asada, el pastor, chicken & im just not a fan. But the gentleman cashier is very nice! & The prices aint bad even tho they did raise it a quarter recently but who hasnt raised their prices. Anyway my grandma gets the tripas so maybe thats good? But i havent tried it. Maybe next time
