This place was amazing! It's an authentic Mexican restaurant on the Westside with incredibly…read morefriendly staff. The restaurant was decorated for the Fourth of July, creating a festive atmosphere, and everything from the décor to the aromas felt genuine and welcoming. The staff was attentive, personable, and made the experience even better. I ordered a chicken and steak burrito with rice, beans, and cheese, and it was outstanding. The shredded chicken in mole sauce was tender, juicy, and packed with flavor, while the steak was cooked perfectly and complemented the burrito beautifully. Overall, it was a fantastic dining experience, and I'll definitely be coming back!

Out of my neighborhood for the afternoon on a Saturday, I was ready to eat and did a quick search…read more How about some Mexican grub? My wife agreed, so we decided to give Paco's a try. We loved the old-school vibe immediately. We arrived around 4:45 and waited only 5-10 minutes. Then we saw the fresh tortillas being made and thought, "This could be good!" The atmosphere was relaxed, with full table service and great chips and salsa. We ordered a plate of fajitas to share and a shredded beef taco. Funny enough, I thought I was ordering a taco platter, but one lonely taco arrived on a bed of shredduce. Thankfully, it was excellent. A good shredded beef taco is surprisingly hard to find, and this was my favorite part of the meal. Overall, the food, service and atmosphere were all great. I'll definitely return. I found a parking spot behind the restaurant that felt a little sketchy, but it worked. I'll probably look for street parking next time. 4.5 stars

Madre Oaxacan was an incredible experience from start to finish. The cocktails were outstanding, my…read morefavorite was the Chapo y Kate with tequila, cucumber, and prickly pear. It was incredibly refreshing and one of the best cocktails I've had in a long time. The food was just as impressive. The chicken burrito was hearty and packed with flavor, and the chicken breast with mole truly transported me to Oaxaca. You can tell they take pride in authentic Oaxacan cuisine. What really sets this place apart is their tequila and mezcal selection. Their back bar and menu feature over 300 bottles, making it one of the most impressive agave spirit collections I've ever seen. Whether you're a tequila or mezcal enthusiast or just looking for amazing food and drinks, Madre is absolutely worth a visit. I'll definitely be back!

I'm a regular here and love it. The salsas are delicious and made from scratch, excellent quality…read more The tortillas are also really great quality. I'm from Mexico and when I first moved to the US what I first noticed was that tortillas fall apart here and are bad quality. But at madre you can tell that the tortillas like for the memelas are made in house and are excellent quality with good masa, not just like maizena. The servers are always great, my boyfriend and I love this place. This is where he had chilaquiles for the first time with tasajo and he will eat them elsewhere but nothing compares. The chilaquiles are awesome, better even than many places in Mexico. Good quality ingredients and stuff that you don't find everywhere- huitlacoche, chapulines, etc. When I brought my mom and dad my dad was eating and paused and told me he had forgotten he was in the US for a second and that it felt like home. Love this place a lot and couldn't recommend it more highly. I was reading the reviews from others and it seems clear that this place resonates with people who appreciate the diverse and multi layered tastes of Mexico and who know about the nuances of the cuisine beyond tacos and margaritas. If you want cheap tacos and a margarita this is probably not the vibe. I don't know why people come to a restaurant that has unique and specialized Oaxacan cuisine like the amazing mole and great salsas and hard to find ingredients like huitlacoche and chapulines only to buy like an asada taco and a margarita... lol

I ordered a Chorizo breakfast burrito, which was recommended by the person serving us at the…read moreregister. This is a small location with nice artistry in the exterior and offering a homey vibe with the design on the inside. The waiter was friendly and handled our requests efficiently. The burrito was large! I did not finish it in one sitting, and it had a healthy amount of egg, chorizo, potatoes, and cheese on the inside. The order came with a side order of chips, green salsa, and red salsa. The green salsa was my favorite since it offered a slightly acidic taste, which cut through the saltiness of the chorizo in the burrito. If I am ever in the area again, I am definitely stopping by to try something else on the menu.

Good portions, friendly service and made fresh while we waited…read more Decent pricing but the food was bland.

Had a bad week? Hungover? Starving? Come here, and you're gonna be just fine…read more Nice big burritos (coming from a girl with huge hands) in Culver City, where it's easy to find street parking, pop in, chat with the nice staff and put an order in, and within 15 minutes or so you've got a big heaping burrito to help you forget all your troubles. Food's great, it does get packed so be prepared to make friends and sit by some strangers and the table top, but you guys can make small talk over how good the food is as you chomp away.

OVERALL Decent surf and turf burrito, packed and loaded with…read moreyummy carne asada but not fresh shrimp. Pricey tacos and menu overall. Limited outdoor seating by the streets, but definitely fits the vibes for a "Taco Tuesday". Tacos on Tuesday are $5 which are still quite pricey. FOOD Tried their surf and turf burrito which is way too pricey for $17 + $4 including rice, beans, pico de gallo, lettuce, jack cheese, pickled onion, and a side of chips. Add guacamole for an additional $3. The carne asada was tender and not dry and it was packed with rice and onions, but the shrimp was not fresh. I did enjoy their hot sauces. SERVICE Friendly service and quick to order. Wait time dependent on the line, but usually around 10-15 minutes. Self serve water and utensils. PARKING Street parking or you can park at the culver parking structure that's free for the first hour with validation on P1 (only specific locations validate: Erewhon, Afuri Ramen)

The salsa was a little too spicy for me to really enjoy, and the guacamole was more of a liquid than mashed avocados. I plan to visit again to try their tacos and savor their rice and beans.

Tito's is a little pricey if you get anything more than their flagship tacos. Having said that, I…read morenever had a better beef tacos and these are the full size corn tortillas not the smaller street truck size. I usually get 2 of them because as I said, they are grande. The only thing is they come with too much cheese. Can you believe that :). So, what I do is share the cheese between the two. The tacos come with a tub freshly made tomato salsa and another tub of fresh chopped jalapeños in another tub. You mix the two for your preferred heat. I'm telling you, you won't get a better taco and or toppings. What's also comes in the box are freshly made corn tortilla chips generously poured on top. Now I'm usually full after the tacos so I'll put the chips back in the box, put the lid on it, and leave them on the counter until the next day where I'll put them on aluminum foil and add cheese on top and put it in the oven at 300° for 5 minutes to where the cheese is perfect and any staleness is gone...
