    Probably one of the best taco places in LA. We think about wanting to go every once in a while. $2/taco.

    If you haven't been or heard of this place, well now you do. It just fantastic foods, services and in the street of okey neighborhood in a RA store parking lot. I knew about this place for awhile but unable to come during their opening since they open late in the day til night time plus in LA - it's 45mins drive for us. Finally,we make it here after the whole yr waiting. It was 30mins standing in line for us in a cold Saturday night (7pm) but can't complaints since everyone infront or behind us had been here ALOT (plus their other location about 5-10mins away) so it's that good and got us excited more, especially we just drove back from SF and stuck in freeway traffic for 3 blocks plus haven't ate since 11am, you we saved for this. The guys and the lady are very friendly, warm, helpful and nice to us and everyone else too...we're new so they explained and shown us what needed. We got 15 tacos of mixed (beef, pork, head, tongue) with pineapple and a burrito of 2 meats. Man, I ate ALOT of tacos & burritos (street foods that is) but this place just got me to a new level appreciation for the foods and the family members working there. The meats are just tendered, well seasoned, well displayed and well put together right infront of you (no hidden - what you ask is what you see and what you will eat). The portion of each is HUGE...each taco can make into 2-3 more tacos (pov that is). For burrito, after they got you the meats (I added cheese into it,, it melted with the tortilla (burned abit which make it soo soo good) and they give it to you to add what ever you into it, sauce, veggies l, grilled onions and you have it back to them to wrap it tightly and wrapped it with the aluminum. The prices are just unbeatable for sure (well I know $1/taco street taco truck but the quality definitely can't compete with this place). The massive self serve side veggies & sauces are massive - they do have drinks too. We ate and ate and finished them all for 3 people and we just die and went somewhere and came back.. and wished we could have more room for more tacos and we also want to get quesadilla but the line is still long and we can't move. All we can think is we make it here, we did it, we ate and will work on the schedule to come back one more time before this yr ends...man, my stomach is making noises from writing this and looking at last night pics of the foods. Wish they're open all day.

    I feel extremely fortunate to be living in the street taco era here in west L.A. I myself am an Al Pastor lover & I actively seek for new places that offer it. I actually judge street taco vendors by the quality of their a Al Pastor & if they rotate it on a pike. I feel like there are so many options out there & I have yet to try them all, but I can honestly say this place is in the top 5 for me all time. I've had Al Pastor in San Diego, east L.A., etc. For me, I prefer a taco vendor that doesn't cook all the meat in one grease pot. I know a lot of people like this, but I do not like when my meat is mixed with all other types of meat, including intestine, tongue, etc.. I like that they separate the meat, and I like it when the Carne Asada has a smoky barbecue kind of taste to it. This place offers my exact preferences and is a diamond in the rough. For all you taco connoisseurs I strongly recommend that you give this place a try. This place is getting more popular now, my days of eating here without a line are soon to be gone. Enjoy friends.

    Wow… just wow…. Never thought a food stand on the side of the road could make me feel this type of way. I discovered this place on TikTok while scrolling on the toilet. Immediately I knew I needed to try this. I approached the stand only to find a group of long lost family members smiling and making me feel welcome. For the first time I was a true “Hermano.” You could instantly tell these people were masters of their crafts. The only thing finer than their slices were the prices. I’m debating making this a daily routine to visit my newfound brothers and cousins. The service was impeccable and the food was making me salivate like a rabid dog. I ordered a top 2 burrito I’ve ever had in my life (and it isn’t 2). The smell and the taste is to die for. I will warn that they are closed on Mondays unfortunately.

    Friendly staff and delicious taco nearby! The price is very affordable. If you are okay with street food, standing eating, very recommend!

    Best taco in the US. We had a really good taco in Mexico City 10 years ago and have been looking for the similar taste ever since. We found it here. The staff are extremely friendly as well
