It was a big portion and hit the spot on a warm day. However I wouldn't recommend the sampler. The tacos were pretty small so by time you process what you're tasting, it's gone. I'd suggest picking 3 full-size tacos instead. Overall, Guisados has good food and definitely will come again to try their burritos and other tacos.

My first visit here wasn't so memorable, but my most recent stop totally changed my mind. Very glad…read moreI have this place another chance and definitely think this place deserves more love!! I woke up early to lounge and go for a dip at Hermosa Beach. After 3.5 hours, I was hungry and looking for something closeby, filling, and refreshing. Service was friendly, quick and overall solid. No major complaints. I absolutely loved the tacos I ordered: Pescado, Tinga, and Papas con Chorizo. The last two tacos had a little kick of heat to them which were enjoyable; I seriously considering purchasing more for takeout cause that's how awesome they were. I also got the Armando Palmero (2/3 Limon, 1/3 Jamaica) - perfectly tart and really complemented the savory flavor profile of my tacos of choice. The only callout I have is that the countertops and tables could be cleaner, but I shouldn't be too critical about this since I came in right after the lunch rush prior to any cleanup from said rush. I'm already looking forward to the next time I'm in the area because I have the melon & horchata agua frescos top of mind.

If you're looking for some of the best birria tacos around, Tacos El Goloso is the spot in Hermosa…read more They're especially known for their tacos dorados de birria--crispy, cheesy, and packed with rich, flavorful meat that hits every time. This is hands down my favorite place to bring out-of-town friends when I want them to experience legit birria tacos. It never disappoints. The vibe is welcoming from the moment you walk in--the staff are friendly and greet you right at the entrance, which always sets the tone for a great visit. Whether you're a first-timer or already a birria fan, this place is a must-try. Just be ready to crave it again the next day.

I got a plate which included birria, tortillas, rice, beans, and chips. The portions were hearty and the flavor was delicious -- especially dipping my handmade taco into the consommé.

Parking is a little tight but this would be a great place to stop for some to-go to bring to the beach!

It tasted like it had been sitting there for a while. But the burrito wrap was perfect, the flavor of everything else inside was great. Oh and, no bathrooms here.

We usually come here for birria tacos and after today we will stick just to that…read more This location does not advertise they have breakfast burritos but they do serve them all day. I got the bacon breakfast burrito and I did not like it. First off, the tortilla was yellow, not the regular white flour, and it did have a taste. Second, the bacon was not well done. I like to bite into the burrito and it be crispy bc of the bacon, and I usually never have to ask anywhere else for this. The eggs and cheese were okay. I just had really bad heartburn afterwards. Not coming here again for breakfast burritos, I don't recommend them. Service is always great. It was an early Sunday morning and they do get a lot of foot traffic since they are right there on the pier. The spot is very small to order. If we are dining in, I usually prefer either of the PCH locations.

The taco Dorado was OK but I really like the street taco with the Carnitas. I used up all the salsa from the first order. So I asked can I get some more salsa? What kind of bothered me was that the waiter should say the next order of salsa they charge which I had no idea. It's just a matter of principle that he could've told me! The bottom line it's all good and I know in the future. I would still come back to this place. And I really like their patio!

Order: two asada tacos; chicken flautas and asada burrito…read more The tacos were full of meat and great flavor, the green salsa was just spicey enough and the lime brought it all together. The flautas were not bad - packed with chicken but a little dry with little flavor. They needed a lot of juice from the limes and salsa which was ok but not great. The burrito was made perfectly to order, and very good. A decent size and filling. Each of the orders came with enough salsa and consume that made each dish extra flavorful. Yummy place all around
