    Potato taco special, includes medium drink
    Lea W.

    When I worked in this area, Chile Verde on Sepulveda was a go-to for quick Mexican food at reasonable prices. It's nice to see things haven't changed! Seating is minimal in the dining room, but most folks get food to go. Ordered the potato taco special and it was just enough food for the amount of time we had. Friendly service, great food and still reasonably priced.

    Chicken Taco

    I don't like to complain but after receiving no response back I felt the need to share. I ordered 4 chicken tacos to go and there was literally 1 tablespoon of chicken in each taco. Obviously they don't care about customer service or to improve it.

    Nachos with Asada

    This is my go to place for nachos. In addition, you can help yourself to their salsa bar for their spicy green salsa and jalapeños. On Taco Tuesday, I recommend the hard shell chicken tacos. The service is always prompt and friendly.

    Their flan.

    **AVERAGE MEXICAN FOOD TO-GO** Craving some local Mexican eats and was too lazy to drive past Torrance. Chile Verde popped up with a decent rating on a delivery app and immediately placed an order. FOOD ===== CHILE VERDE PLATE - $10.99 Pork with green chile, served with rice, beans, and tortillas. The meat was pretty moist and tender, but the chile sauce was a bit salty. The red rice hardened tremendously and the cheese on the beans congealed after left untouched for an hour, a bit too processed for my personal taste. RATING: 3/5 FLAN - $2.49 I added this to my order and believed it was a homemade or restaurant-made flan. Nope, it was a Juan J's flan (see photo). I find it personally deceiving that they did not disclose this on the menu clearly. RATING: 2/5 OVERALL ======== Personally, not my jam. I know it's family owned, so I don't want to be harsh. I wish them the best. My review is not going to stop their fan base and devotees, as they have several locations in the South Bay.

    Carne Asada Fries

    Great service, great food, clean and very welcoming! Great experience. I had the New : Carne asada fries, great price, great flavor and great amount just satisfying!

    Menu

    Ordered thru door dash for a wet bean and cheese burrito (vegetarian as no lard etc) wet and a side of beans and cheese to make some nachos at home. I put notes to get some spicy salsa etc and it was all done correctly and food was excellent and the portions were huge. spicy salsa was very good. Sauce on the burrito was good, I would say it was 7/10, but the beans and rest were 9/10. Service was great as well.

While the ambiance isn't over-the-top, it's clean, comfortable, and inviting definitely grab a table on the patio if you can. Parking: They have a dedicated lot on-site. It's a bit tight, but having dedicated parking is still a huge plus. To Start: They kick off the meal with complimentary chips paired with three distinct salsas: a rich red salsa with a good kick, a bright salsa verde, and a fresh pico de gallo. Every single one was full of flavor. The Main Course: Veracruz Fish: Hands down the star of the night. The white fish was cooked to absolute perfection and paired seamlessly with sautéed vegetables, rice, and beans. A must-order, Chicken Enchiladas: Exceptionally flavorful with well-seasoned, juicy chicken. A special shoutout goes to the rice and beans--they easily hold their own as standalone stars on the plate. Chile Relleno: Well-prepared and tasty. While it wasn't my personal favorite of the night, it's a solid choice if you love traditional rellenos. Shrimp Cocktail: Generously portioned with plenty of fresh shrimp and avocado, though the sauce base wasn't quite to my personal taste. All in all, Maderos is a true gem delivering vibrant, authentic Mexican cuisine. We will definitely be back!

    Frida Mexican Cuisine in Torrance earned five stars across the board…read more My family and I had a wonderful dinner here with friends. We had reservations and were seated promptly, and when an unexpected guest joined our party, the staff quickly and graciously accommodated us. The patio atmosphere was fantastic, with a beautiful blend of Mexican culture and Southern California flair. Live musicians moved from table to table taking requests and serenading guests. They were charming, talented, and added something genuinely special to the evening. Our waiter, Renee, was outstanding. He was patient while we waited for our final guest, attentive without rushing us, courteous, and full of great recommendations. He worked hard, always had a smile, and clearly takes pride in what he does. Exceptional service deserves recognition, and Renee absolutely earned it. I highly recommend the carnitas plate. The meat was tender and juicy, never greasy, with the perfect amount of crispness and bark. My personal test for Mexican cuisine is simple: get the beans and rice right first. Frida nailed both, and everything else followed suit. In Southern California, great Mexican food is everywhere, but Frida offers something beyond just a good meal. Quality ingredients, thoughtful preparation, excellent hospitality, live music, beautiful decor, and genuine cultural character all come together to create a complete dining experience. It is a little pricier than a casual Mexican meal, but worth every penny. From the welcoming hosts and talented musicians to Renee's exceptional service, everyone contributed to a terrific evening for our family and guests. Great food, great people, great atmosphere. This is what good looks like. Highly recommended. We will absolutely be back.

I've been here before, and the birria tacos were exactly what I needed for a late-night craving. Crispy on the outside with a good amount of filling and strong flavor - they really hit the spot. I ended up having four of them. The consomé on the side was really good too - rich and flavorful, almost something I could've just had on its own. The street tacos were solid. The carnitas had that tender, slightly crisp texture, and the al pastor added a bit more seasoning and contrast. Nothing overcomplicated, just straightforward and satisfying. Service was friendly, and the setup is quick and casual. In the South Bay where places tend to close early, it was nice that they were open until around 10pm. Overall, this is a no-frills taco spot where the focus is on the food. Easy choice when you're in the mood for tacos.

They used to let you pick from more choices years ago but free is free right? I chose the number 4 which is a tamale with beans and rice. My wife ordered their chicken tortilla soup which has been a longtime favorite. The size of the bowl has diminished about 30% from what I remember but that's been a common theme the past few years in many places so oh well. We also ordered a side of chicken taquitos which came with a generous amount of sour cream and guacamole. The food was very good overall although the chunks of beef in my tamale were dry. I prefer chicken but unfortunately they were out. I should have asked for pork but didn't think about it till later. Our server was very helpful and just a sweet, thoughtful young lady. The gentleman bussing tables was also friendly and considerate. Prices have definitely gone up but those are the times in which we live. There is street parking and an underground parking garage a short distance away. There are quite a few restaurants in the area so parking can be a little challenging.

I did enjoy the one fish taco that I ordered. Was huge portion but stacked so high that you could barely close the tortilla. This is the first time I bought a flour. Tortilla worked well for the taco. It was also bland but I was able to salvage it with some of their spicy salsa that I requested.
