    I have been going to Danny's tacos for 15 years. I love their pastor until tonight. The tacos they gave me had tiny bits of dried up burnt meat. Not even sure is was pastor but I couldn't eat it. I question if it is the real Danny's because the truck was different and the Danny's sign was super small and they gave me sliced cucumbers with my tacos. Very strange. Maybe Danny sold the business? I'm posting a pick of the truck. It is parked tonight on Grand Ave between Olympic and 11th Street .

    Asada / Pastor Tacos
    Richard G.

    I came here because i had 15 minutes to kill. 4 tacos (2 asada, 2 pastor) set me back $13.00. It's a bit steep for a taco truck if you ask me, but everything is going up in price these days. The tacos were just ok. The salsas were better than the tacos, to be honest. I had to ask for 1 green one as i was only given 1 red one. My tip is to ask for green and red salsas prior to leaving. The truck was how most taco trucks look in Los Angeles, if you know what i mean. Service was quick, and communication was efficient. There is no salsa bar or napkins outside the truck, so whatever they give you is what they give you. I had better tacos, but if your in a jam and need a quick bite, this won't disappoint or please. Solid 3 stars.

    Came here late at night after hitting up a bar. It was close to my friends place and my friend suggested this spot. Ordered a few tacos to-go and my friend actually heated the tacos in the stove. The tacos were solid but I will admit I was no sober so I think anything would have been delicious at that moment. Looking at the previous reviews for this place, I'm not sure if I can agree with all the negative reviews. Again, I was not sober but from my recollection it was tasty.

    I think they have several trucks around the city. Was looking for something quick and hopped out to get this. Prices aren't listen which bugs me but got 2 steak tacos for $6. They were really good and convenient.

    My $5 chips and salsa
    Joseph C.

    So I wanted some simple chips and salsa. There was one woman sitting in the front seat on her phone. I had to ask her to help. I requested chips and salsa, I saw her grab this box and use her bare hands (not washed after sitting up front using her phone). Pulled about one handful of chips and two scoops Of salsa. Let's just say I brought these home and threw them away.... I have bought tacos here 2 times, both were mediocre at best. I figured it would be tough to screw up chips and salsa. They did a great job in messing that up.

    Paper thin meat! HORRIBLE
    Jay R.

    Pepe and his brother Jose Jose are horrible. They act like they're helping you and they really know they're about to take a vantage of you. They will recommend whatever... but they know that their food sucks and is expensive. We ordered a steak sandwich that was $15 and there was very very little meat. The meat was as thin as paper but the lettuce was as thick as a chapter book. And we also ordered taquitos with a tablespoon of meat for four taquitos and a tablespoon of beans on the side. But the tortillas were Hella thick and Hella crispy.! Do not order for this place they charged us $27 for those two plates and two brisk teas and we still hungry!

    The most disgusting food on earth. Found hair and cockroaches in the burritos. Once has no respect the for the neighborhood and keeps the truck just filthy. Food is so bad that you might as well just throw it out. Don't waste your money on this garbage. McDonald's would serve you better food. Update: My friend didn't listen to me and got really sick eating their garbage. Don't go that crap.

    Nasty Tacos

    Still trash. No change. Won't go back ever again. Go to El Comelon, except before like 5PM and Sundays.

    We stopped by Danny's Tacos before heading to the Novo Theater for a concert. The taco truck is conveniently located next to LA Live, but I would recommend walking there instead of attempting to park anywhere near it. There were a lot of options on the menu, but I just stuck with what I knew and ordered two carne asada tacos. Sadly, they did not have flour tortilla, only corn, which was a bummer. The carne asada was well seasoned and tasted pretty good. Condiments were placed in front of the truck for customers to serve themselves. There was also a bottle of hand sanitizer, which I really appreciated. Overall, Danny's Tacos is decent for a food truck. However, I had to order a certain dollar amount in order to use my credit card. If you want only two tacos, make sure you bring cash!

After hearing the buzz for way too long, I finally made my way over -- and let me tell you, it did not disappoint. The menu is a carnivore's dream. We're talking carne asada, lengua, brisket, and a whole roster of meats that had me doing multiple laps before I could even commit to an order. Every bite was bold, juicy, and packed with that authentic flavor that's impossible to fake. And the prices? Completely reasonable. No sticker shock here -- just good tacos at a fair price, which is honestly rare these days. But here's the kicker: they're open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Midnight taco craving? Covered. Post-concert hunger? Handled. Living in Hawaii, I'm constantly reminded that late-night taco options are tragically limited back home -- and Avenue 26 is the standard I didn't know I needed to set. Will I be back? Absolutely, without question, 100% yes.

    First time for parking lot tacos for me!…read more I was feeling a bit peckish but didn't want to eat too much, so Yelpers, thank you for leading me here! I was able to snag two tacos for $4.50 that tided me over until dinner time. Now: bring your car because there's no place to sit! I arrived on foot, so dined standing up. Quite a variety of means - I'm a "safe" eater and enjoyed pollo and asada. I loved the self-serve salsas; the green salsa was delish and had a good little kick to it. Happy to have found this spot, and want to come back! 2026: 32/100

For for first timers, I'd recommend ordering the Villa's Trio which is what I got. Those come with the Ranchera Asada quesotaco as well as the Papas con Chorizo and Black Bean con Pollo quesotacos which are a trio exclusive. All the tacos were meaty, flavorful, and crispy. You honestly don't even need the side sauces since the tacos are already flavorful on their own. Great quality. I also got the Watermelon Agua Fresca which was refreshing, tasty, and sweet. Goes well with the tacos. I also got the Jamaica Agua Fresca, but that one was a bit too tart for my liking. The line can get long, so I would prepare to wait for up to an hour on weekends. There's ample free parking at the grocery store lot nearby. For seating and tables, it's limited and competitive. You just have to get lucky if a spot clears up as soon as you get your food. I also like how the restaurant handles crowd control. They allow a couple of people at a time to go inside, order, and get their condiments. You wait outside until they call you for your food. I like that it didn't feel crowded while I was getting my condiments. I highly recommend this spot and I will definitely be coming back.

    I delayed writing this review to really think through, and now I will confidently say--these are…read moreeasily the best tacos I've ever had. Having been to so many taco stands, I think what makes Tire Shop Taqueria really stand out are the right-off-the-grill charcoal-grilled meats, the freshly made tortillas literally in front of you as you are waiting on line, and the free guacamole that comes with each taco. The ordering process is like any other taco stand, though one difference is here the salsas/guacamole are all handled by the staff. If you'd like more of something, just ask them instead of reaching for the ladle yourself. There is a separate area though for grilled onions/peppers and radishes you can serve yourself. I got the asada, chorizo, cabeza, and al pastor, and they were all so good. The asada and chorizo are specifically grilled over charcoal, and that flavor really shines through. I loved how meaty and tender the cabeza was too, and the classic al pastor hit the spot. They have large communal tables setup, so it is a great friendly vibe to enjoy your meal I will say, the surrounding area is not the best in LA, especially given how the taco stand is only open at night. The parking lot is quite small, so I parked on a side street that had some abandoned cars, but of course, if you are in/from LA, this is not that new for us. I would hesitate if I am a tourist though to make it out here. Anyhow, the food really is worth it here, and I can't wait to be back!

We only got the carne asada and the al pastor but it was so good we went back in line for seconds. The meat was very flavorful - the carne asada was thin but still very tender. The al pastor, I think uses a fattier cut than some other places but keeps it from drying out. The tacos were leaking meat juices still. The surrounding streets are quite dark at night but the parking lot the stand is in, is well lit and there is a covered seating area. We went on Thanksgiving weekend and there were maybe always 15-20 ppl in line at any given time. I imagine there are longer lines in the summer.

We've been to the downtown location before and the menu was a little different from what I remember. Hard to find parking sometimes. Only counter seating inside with about six tables outside. Wanted to snack on chips while we waited and there are only two sizes: small which is a bag you would put a sandwich and chips in like when you were a kid taking lunch to school, and a large which was a big bag that you would buy like a part size Doritos with the labels and all. Note to the non-spicy fam: the green salsa is mild with a little heat but the red is definitely spicy so watch out. They don't have pico de gallo. We had an asada burrito which was surprisingly packed and even had guacamole in it. Appropriately sized for lunch so not some monstrosity but it's good and flavorful. We also got an asada quesadilla. It's ok but the cheese is just melted and everything was kind of "wet" still and hard to eat because it just falls apart. Also had an asada taco. Yeah it's good but can't really describe if it was much better than a taco truck. No fountain drinks but got a Jamaica agua Fresca and really felt it was too sweet. Probably just go with a Mexican coke or canned soda next time. Sonoratown is good and worth a trip back as well. They won't compete against taco trucks but sometimes it's nice to just sit down and relax with good food.
