Cheos has been the BEST spot in El Sereno for years. I always get the al pastor and tripas, and I ask for them a little extra cooked because the texture comes out perfect every time. And if you know, you KNOW the habanero with onions they keep outside on the bar takes everything to another level. The salsas are always fire, the meat quality is legit, and the horchata never misses either. On top of that, the family running it are some of the coolest, hardest working people around. You can tell they really care about making sure everyone leaves happy and full. Great seating and very clean always! Mini pancakes or Dubai strawberries after for a nice dessert! read more

Good food good prices me and my lady go here at least once a week close by and convenient

$2 charge for using Zelle, rip off!! Not like they aren't getting their money right away. The quality of their meat has gone down. Lots of fat in the carne asada now and the flavor has gone down. Like everyone says the girls working there are very rude. No personality! read more

It so nasty the burrito small stingy with the rice recommend not to ever come here again might as well go to the one down the street or by big saver read more

Foods delicious, but the lady at the front desk has very bad customer service. Almost like she hates her job. And now they charge $2 per transaction via Zelle? I own a very successful small business and never charge $2.00 per Zelle. Thats just a way to make up for something else I guess. With the extra cash maybe hire a nicer cashier. :) Expensive, rude. read more

I know people are gonna hate me when I say this but I like cost and flavor. Just get the mulitas. Tacos are good but the mulitas is where it's at. I get my tacos either west or south from here cuz the real ones know where it's at. The cheese goes well with their proteins here but kinda boring on just store-bought tortillas. They always run out of tripas, cabeza, and lengua...just take it off the menu or even a better idea, have more lol. You're not missing out much tho, maybe just the cabeza. Asada: it's good for a taco truck. Good amount of meat and flavor. The texture is alright, it's just brown and lean. They don't let the flat top sizzle it enough imo, it's like they're rushed or piled on a lot of meat at once. Why does everything else have a better sear? Good with both rojo and verde, but the guacasalsa is too bright and takes away the asada flavor. Do whatever you want, just eat. Pastor: good sear from the grill top even tho we all love the flamethrower sound. Some people don't like how sweet their marinade is but I think it's quite good. The sugar breaks down enough to impart a nice flavor with their spices. Juicy and meaty, add a bit of salt and grilled onion, you're good to go. Cabeza: really fine and chopped up, pretty tasty and goes well with all their salsa, especially with a bite of jalapeno. I like the mushiness and flavor here. Lengua: almost tastes like their cabeza also looks nearly the same. They chop it up fine unlike other places. I haven't eaten this enough to say much because they're always out.... Tripas: it's alright. I like gamey in a good way but this is chewy, with an untreated gamey taste. I always try it to see if it's better another time but just ends up the same. Can they cook it in the oil vat more and also crisp it up too? read more

As a resident of El Sereno, finally decided to gice this place a try. Very friendly staff. They use corn tortillas for their tacos. It is OK, has so much potential, but meat was a little bland. Best way to put it. Other than that, still is good enough. Their sauce is a game-changer, as long as you drench the tacos in the sauce, there will be no issue. Must add the sauce. read more

Let's start off with how I found this place. I was looking for Los Dorados because my car's gps led me to this truck. Asked the staff where the flautas place was and they directed me accordingly. On the way back I stopped by to tell them their tacos had been recommended by another customer at the flautas place and that I would be back. They just stared at me without saying anything. I figured they must not speak English so I repeated myself in Spanish. Still no response. I finally asked if they understood and I finally got a response. So yeah, I get the reviews posted re the not so stellar customer service. My rating is strictly for the food but I do agree the staff could learn to improve their social skills with customers. Now for the more important part - the food! I got 5 asada tacos to go. They will throw in 1 red salsa, 1 green salsa, and 1 guac as well as onions/cilantro. You also get some grilled onions and a grilled jalapeño. I asked for 1 extra green salsa and 1 extra guac and they had no problem booking that up. They will also give you some baggies for radishes and lemons. I was very satisfied with my tacos. For me, the guac had enough of a kick that I didn't need the extra kick of the green sauce. I'm partial to green sauce so to me the red sauce, which was spicier, was nothing special. The guac is superior to the green sauce in my opinion. The grilled onions were also perfect, had a nice sweet flavor. Parking can easily be found on the street. There was a line but I would estimate the wait was about 10 mins after placing the order. There is also an area to eat but I took my order to go. Definitely recommend this local joint. Is it better than Ave 26? No, but it will satisfy that taco craving and you won't feel like you have to redo your taco experience because this one just did not meet your expectations. So in sum, another yummy in my tummy rating and now I don't feel like my failed attempt at a good meal last Friday was all for naught since I discovered this place. read more

My college friend and I where looking for some tacos on Friday night and we stumbled upon this one, honestly the food was great and had no issue with it. The only issue was the cashier in the front having an attitude and kept rolling her eyes when I went up to order my food. I wanted to order more but since she just had a negative aura and looked at me like I was annoying her, I didn't order more. I took my food to go but I think I could find other places to eat. It is cash only or you could use the QR code to pay with Zelle. read more

This place is so good!! The Cabeza is really tender and when you add the green guacamole sauce to anything on the menu, OMG! Must try spot when in the area. read more

Girl taking orders has an attitude. And they charge 2 dollar fee to use Zelle they don't accept debit or Apple Pay . Other than that it's alright read more

Stopped by to Cheos today. Did not have an issue with the food at all Just had an issue with the terrible attitude from the cashier After arriving I noticed there was a cash only sign at the register I asked just to make sure if there was any way I could Zelle or make a card payment and she said no, which is understandable I had $12 cash so my family and i ended up sharing 6 tacos When the next customer steps up He wasn't aware it was cash only either But she allowed him to pay via Zelle I have no problem with certain rules, but if you are going to have them, respect them with all customers not only with the ones you feel like it. It honestly felt so rude on her part and we left hungry when other customers are allowed to pay other methods Very horrible customer service from that lady. read more

That lady in the front taking orders is rude. Never is welcoming. Won't go there anymore

Best tacos so good and fresh and salsa are bomb. Family owned and have been at this location for over 10 years !

Has been coming to Cheo's Tacos for years don't even remember how many but a lot lol. Tacos Al Pastor are my favorite, and there guacamole salsa is the best today I try Mulita so good... Have try Tacos de Tripas, Asada, Lengua all good... People in the kitchen are so nice and welcoming. The lady at the register need to smile and show a better customer service she seem mad. Recommended it it's $1.85 per taco it's worth it read more

Cheo's Tacos - Tacos al Pastor, Horchata, Cebolla y Jalapeño Asado - Food Trucks Near Me - El Sereno, California

Really solid taco truck in LA. My friend and I came here after a hike and we were craving Mexican food. Typically, you can drive around LA and see a bunch of taco trucks and stands out on the street so we weren't even going out of our way to eat here but we did not regret going here. There was a handful of people waiting for their food and also to order. They also have a little seating area and station to serve yourself salsa and onions/cilantro. They do have a menu but with no prices, but the good thing is the food here is really cheap :) . Everything seems to cost under 10$ and it tastes fantastic I had two carne asada tacos, which were absolutely delicious, they were so full of flavor and bite sized. Then I had a mulita, also tasted just as amazing and half of my friend's chicken quesadilla lol. I definitely recommend coming here if you are in the area and giving the place try. If you like Mexican food then you won't be disappointed! read more

Cheos is pretty much a staple around here. I don't understand all the hype, but I've noticed they've been improving their service lately. The food is alright, not the absolute best tacos, but far from the worst. Personally, I prefer this taco truck over Mojica Tacos. They have a nice outdoor seating area, a great place to hang out. It was annoying that they gave only two of their green avocado salsa and became snappy if you asked for more. But, this time, I was happily surprised by them giving me three avocado salsas. I hope they continue being generous with their salsa because it improves their food by a long shot. read more

We booked a rental space across the street to lead a guided sound meditation. Little did we know Cheo's Tacos announces the orders over a loudspeaker when they're ready (which would have surely continuously interrupted it). Upon realizing this, we went over and explained the situation. The person in charge there was so understanding and agreed to turn the loudspeaker off for a couple hours. In gratitude, after our event, I relayed the story of what happened in the closing circle and recommend that everyone eat here. A bunch of the students did and loved the food. The people here are great and I'm very thankful for them helping out when they didn't have to! read more

The food here is delicious and very reasonably priced. The mulitas are fire. Burritos and tacos are good. The only thing that didn't seem a notch above other taco places was their torta. read more

The food is so good, this is our go to taco spot. The asada is tasty and has good texture. They have cabeza and tripas which are really good as well. Service is great, they have tables set up as well as salsas and sides that you can get. Nice chill spot, cool to hang out and eat read more

I haven't been here in a while but I thought I'd give it another try. The tacos are okay. For the amount of people that you see waiting I was surprised that they weren't better. I had the asada and Al Pastor tacos. I prefer the taco truck up the street and the Flauta spot next to that one. read more

Pros : Al Pastor and Carne Asada are really good! The quality of the meat is good and their spicy salsa is yummy! Prices are very reasonable too. Cons : 35 minute wait for three tacos. Allowing random people to enter the cooking area. While waiting for my order, a truck pulls up and three people exit and walk around the line of waiting people into the food truck. After about 5 minutes they get plates and plates of food whilst there are literally 15 people waiting for their order or waiting to order. This is not acceptable and I will never be back here even though the quality of their food is good. See attached pictures . read more

Over rated over priced and the quality of the food has dropped dramatically. The flavor is not at all like it used to be. They dont do it with love no more that is sad. The food dont taste the same. The burritos dont have rice like what's a burrito with out rice. Las tortillas are tiny. Their chicken tacos which were my favorite have a fun y flavor. No lie there asada tortas are good. Dont forget to ask for guacamole sauce. They give you maybe one or two lil containers for like 4-6 tacos. read more

THE BEST TACOS IN LA, DON'T @ ME Street style tacos so make sure you order a few. Love the carne asada and al pastor. I always order a mulita, you gotta have it!! Super affordable and consistently good. more recommendations on my blog www.losangelysse.com read more

Delicious and affordable food truck in el Sereno California. I had tacos and will definitely be coming back to try other things.

Food is good. The problem is they are inconsistent with open days. On their instagram and Yelp it shows they are open Wednesday-Sunday 6pm-midnight. Drove all the way there tonight and arrived at 6:45 only to find an empty parking lot. Nothing posted on their Instagram about them being closed tonight. Disappointing. read more

Customer service is TRASH Health measures TRASH Wait time TRASH Tacos too good for a truck. People that work there seem overwhelmed with the load so much so that it reflects On their character. An upgrade to a restaurant is much needed. Maybe run the truck on tour cuz this set up they got ain't working for the customers, which in my opinion are the most important part of the business but what do I know about running a business: There's only so much you can put up with for a good taco. The experience ruined the food. read more

This is my go-to taco truck! I usually go with a mix of carne asada/al pastor tacos, and a cheese quesadilla. They never disappoint. Things to love: - Food is delicious. - The staff are nice and friendly. - Prices are very affordable. - Wait for food is never too long. - They take credit card. Would highly recommend coming here. read more

They deleted my comment on Instagram lol figured I would put my opinion somewhere permanent :) You wait 45+ min for a taco truck. The food was not worth the hype. Asada was dry. Horchata was watered down. What taco truck isn't open on taco TUESDAYS?! So lame. There's another taco truck a block away that's fast service and tastes DELICIOUS! read more

great food!, been going to this place for over 25 years. The red salsa has the right amount of heat and tons of flavor. The asada and pastor meats are top notch. Don't really have the other meats so cant speak for those. Service is solid and i'm always well taken care of. Hope to be going their for another 25! read more

Bomb Tacos Specially the cabeza, quick service and really cheap I think the only problem is the cashier, she doesn't make you feel welcome, but i guess that is something common, but still good back for sure. read more

Great food at outstanding prices. Enjoy coming to this truck when I'm in the area. Staff is friendly and they maintain the area very clean. Show up early to avoid the crowds. Ordered one all meat burrito, three keto tacos, three regular tacos, 1 mulita, and two sodas. Paid only $20 read more

I absolutely love this truck for tacos. Yes, I realize that we all have different taste buds but again for me this is the bomb!! I really love all their tacos and burritos. Their salsas are all fresh. I have never had any issues with their food, now their customer service from one particular person is different.... I know most people are turned off by the customer service of one of their people but honestly I have learned to see past that because their food IS that good. I know I shouldn't be complacent :( I have found that if I write my order on a piece of paper clearly with what I want and that person is taking orders, I avoid the attitude from that certain person. If it's someone else taking orders, I keep my little paper and gladly engage with them give them my order. Yea, I know :/ read more

These tacos are legit! My favorite spot to grab authentic Mexican tacos. The Al pastor are my favorite.

My family love these tacos. We don't go anywhere else. I refuse to go to any other. We enjoy the asada and pastor tacos. My kids lobe the asada quesadilla. It's a must try. I also love that they take time off during the holidays. Good for them! read more

We finally stopped by here to try these tacos. We live not far from here and we always pass by them. I have to say that the Al Pastor is pretty bomb! My husband had the Asada and he said they were good too. We will definitely be coming back. read more

We've been here many times and haven't had any problems. Minor/normal waits but nothing we can't handle. But we had the worst taco truck experience ever, of all taco trucks we've been to! We waited at least 20 minutes to order, the line moved painfully slow for only 5 parties in front of us? Then another 30-40 minutes for our order?! All in all, one hour just to get 12 tacos. I don't know what the delay was but the workers were not hustling. I didn't see the urgency or rush to get out orders. The crowd of people waiting for their orders was bigger than their order line. They would call order numbers once every 3-4 minutes. Shouldn't they be calling number after number? This is not a fine dining experience. Tacos, burritos, etc should be flying off the grill easily. Right before we came to cheos, we went down 1 block to Mojica's taco truck and our order was ready in 5 minutes! We came to get tacos for a quick dinner. If it was going to take this long, we should have just dined at a restaurant. I hate to have to write this review, but it left a bad taste in my mouth. I'm afraid to come back and have to wait even longer. We love the tacos here too but if we see a line, we're going down the street to Mojica's. It's just not worth it. read more
