    Pastor taco...
    Miguel M.

    They were gone for a while, but they are back!!! My favorite is the carnitas taco, but they have others too, like this evening I had two carnitas and one pastor. The flavor in the carnitas taco reminds my childhood in Colonia del Valle, México city. The venues is nice, clean and you are not standing outside in the road. The service is from a counter, but the servers are polite and kind. Also they have to go service, while I was there I noticed many pickers were taking the orders from calls outside. Try them. The price is right.

    The service here was friendly. The prices are a tad high for Mexican food / tacos where there's so many alternate non-chain/franchise restaurants that serve fresh tacos and often give free tortilla chips too. So, this is a known quality much like Chipotle. I just feel the portions could be bigger or price tag could be smaller when comparing Chronic Tacos to their peers.

    Chronic Tacos in Redondo Beach was always one of my favorite spots to share great Mexican food with my wife. After being closed for a few months during a change of ownership, they've finally reopened -- and I couldn't be happier. The menu is as stacked as ever, with tacos, burritos, nachos, and even low-carb burrito bowls. You can choose from all the traditional proteins, plus black, pinto, or refried beans, assorted cheeses, fresh salsas, and plenty more. I'm definitely glad they're back.

    Management and corporate handled the situation. I appreciate them for the timely turn around.

    As soon as we walked in we were greeted with Smiles all the ladies that we're working on Tuesday night were great! We ordered 2 Bowls, consisting Spanish rice, refried beans, chicken, lettuce, cheese, topped off with sour cream and green salsa and some kind of red/sour cream mild sauce( (very tasty), the combo come with a drink and chips and salsa! The Green salsa is soooo good! Their soda machine was running low but the lady with the red highlights and red camo pants let us swap it out for a bottled soda! Great Customer Service and we appreciate it! They also have this cool wall mural inside with plenty of seating if you choose to eat inside, they also have some outside with a popup umbrella nice for a Sunny Day!

    Look it's chronic tacos, they're a chain! Manage your expectations folks! I used to grab some tacos at the Redondo Beach location, but I believe that one shut down a while ago! I remember missing the potatoe tacos when the establishment was no longer accessible! It had been so long and though Chronic Tacos is a chain and I could've easily have gone to a different location I'm not typically a chain food eater so when this location conveniently opened up, I thought why not refresh my memory! 2024: Potatoe tacos, delicious!!! I add melted cheese, cilantro, and pico and sour cream. (Sauces on the side please!) The shrimp taco was also bomb, similar toppings as previously stated but with cabbage! The mahi-mahi tacos def skipping out on as the fish was seasoned but STILL has a fishy smell! No bueno! A dear friend had pastor and seemed to dig it. I prefer the crunchy shell but I always request they make them fresh because they're ROCK HARD if they've been sitting out for more than 15 minutes! Chronic Taco, the mericanized interpretation of a clean street style taco.

    Yuuum and fun! I had a grilled shrimp taco (Baja style) with Baja sauce and a carne asada taco (street style) with green sauce. The tacos were large, and I love being able to try different styles in one meal. I'll definitely be back!

Everything tasted incredibly fresh and perfectly seasoned. We ordered the carne asada and carnitas, and both were amazing. The meat was tender, flavorful, and not fatty at all just perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. My daughter had the bean and cheese burrito with rice and beans and loved it too. They bring out three different salsas with the chips, and each one had its own unique flavor. You can tell the chips are house-made because they're fresh, crisp, and just really good. Some Mexican restaurants can make things overly salty, but everything here tasted balanced and fresh. I also had a Paloma and it was made perfectly. Before we left we decided to try the churros and I'm so glad we did. They were filled with this amazing cream and came with a caramel sauce for dipping. I'm not usually a big dessert person, but these were seriously incredible. Great location, great service, amazing food, and everything tasted fresh and well made. We will definitely be back!

Prices are reasonable, and the views are as good as they get with unobstructed views of the harbor all the way to Palos Verdes.

The only critique I'd offer is I wish they didn't use the end pieces of the loaf of bread for french toast--made the pieces tough. But the other breakfast items were great, as were the salsa, guac, and tortilla chips. What a gem to have in Redondo, especially for it being reasonably priced and accessible (wasn't a problem getting a reservation). Hope this place can stay busy enough to stick around for a while.

It's really disappointing that every part of our experience fell short, because I would have gladly given a higher rating if there had been at least one standout. Sadly, there just wasn't

This gives you the space to feel comfortable having conversations with whomever you're with. On certain night in the evening, they actually bring in a band.

They're happy to help you out with whatever you need. And, they do a really good job doing their job. One thing to know about this restaurant is that they're currently offering Sunday brunch beginning at 9:00 AM. I know the sign outside says that the brunch doesn't begin till 11:00 AM.

The dry chilies, sesame seeds, nuts, Oaxacan chocolate, and herbs provide a velvety sauce for the chicken picadillo. The darkly hued Mole Coloraditos has a little bit of a spicy kick from its toasted chilies, nuts, sesame seeds, chocolate, tomatoes, and spices. It's hard not to use the shredded beef enchilada to swab the plate clean. I would seriously lick the plate clean if I was at home. OK, the last one isn't a mole. The Salsa Verde is tangy from its tomatillos, green chilies, onions and garlic. The crumbly chorizo and cheese enchilada is comforting.
