Living in the SGV area for over 30 years and never knowing about Tito's Market until now is one of…read moremy biggest regrets as a foodie. Though their sandwiches are not the fanciest sandwiches, Tito's Market make solid sandwiches. I arrived at Tito's Market with a party of 4 on a Sunday. It was around 12:30PM and a lunch line had started from the cashiers that went to the refrigerators. The line was pretty fast though and it seemed like patrons knew the gist and tables emptied out just as they finished their meals. My group ordered 4 of Tito's hot sandwiches: milanesa de res, lomo de res, and two ribeye. All large/full sizes. My group also ordered one of each of their empanades (beef, chicken and cheese) and a side order of fries. I had the lomo de res and was able to sneak a bite of each of the sandwiches. Although the sandwiches looked fairly identical, all the meats were noticeably unique. The lomo de res (filet mignon) was very tender, but I have to admit that the ribeye was my favorite from the 3. Fries breaded and a great addition to the meal. Empanadas were also very tasty. The meat was ground meat and are the doughy (rather than flakey) kind. Expect a cheese pull moment with their cheese empanada! The only quip that I have with the empanada was that they left a pretty gnarly oil stain in the bags they were packed it. I felt pretty guilty at the sight. Water is available if you ask for cups, but they also have a variety of imported drinks. As the name mentions, they have a small grocery store as well that takes up a third of their shop. Tito's market had plenty of seating when we came in. It seemed packed, but people did their due diligence, cleaned up and left after having their meal. Parking was fine although the spaces are on the smaller side (if you have a SUV or bigger.) There seemed to be plenty of parking when I visited, but there was curbside parking as well.

Still love their beef and chicken empanadas and still personally prefer their chicken. The chimichurri sauce is so good I bought a whole jar this time for $9.99 to bring home and put on everything. Also got the chicken wings but they're kind of tiny and I won't be getting them again. Their Milanesa sandwich is still good as always. Portions are big so a small size is more than enough. Sharing photos of their market too so you can get an idea of what they have.

However in reply to owner from a previous reply to a review, and I quote "Would've been nice if people like you actually came more regularly and supported local businesses" -- would have loved to patronize more often, but at almost $20 a plate for lunch, personally for me, this was not a sustainable option. Something to have kept in mind. Thank you for the few times I was able to enjoy. Take care now and wish you the best!

They first gave us bread that was garlic bread surprisingly with the aji sauce. It was delicious and spicy and garlicky. The ceviche de pescado was excellent. It had that tangy citrus orange marinade with lime and with the nuts and corn nuts. The white fish was soft and cooked thoroughly and delicious. The lomo came out in huge portions that surprised me (basically two meals). The sauce and fries went well together with the onions rice and tomatoes. The meat was decent and it all went together well. The table came in a lazy Susan style for family style sharing which is convenient. The waiter was very nice but not very attentive as we had to ask for water and check & boxes by intentionally getting their attention and walking to them for assistance. The decor is very chill and homely with a variety of music in the background. The whole place is very red and decorated with various Peruvian cultural references. Prices are fairly reasonable for the portions you get.

First off, the Stuffed Bone Marrow beef tacos were the best beef tacos that I've ever had in my…read morelife!!! Although it was $24, the portions are pretty large. It's a large portion of marinated beef cheeks (which I will be honest, I was very nervous about). The marinated beef cheeks was super flavorful (without any gaminess) and slightly shredded with " fall apart tenderness". It comes with one half of toasted bone marrow, some radish slices, cilantro, onions, habanero sauce, and 3 to 4 homemade corn tortillas. Yes, I could totally tell that the corn tortillas were homemade and soft. You use a small smear of bone marrow to give the taco an extra bonus umami flavor. Because I cannot tolerate habanero sauce, which Antonio said was very spicy, Antonio was kind enough to bring out two types of sauces that were minimally spicy for me. Honestly, the marination of the beef was so good that you actually don't even need any sauce. But I tried both sauces that Antonio brought me and they were both tasty with my taco also. You can also buy some extra homemade corn tortillas if you have any beef left over after finishing the tortillas that come with the entrée. Beni's seafood fried rice with solidly good with large chunks of seafood. Although the seafood fried rice was really good, the bone marrow beef tacos were absolutely incredible. My friend chose the spicy tuna roll (cut rolls). Normally, I would totally recommend against getting anything with spicy tuna at a restaurant. As most foodies know, a lot of restaurants hide old tuna with Sriracha sauce. So I was pleasantly surprised when her spicy tuna rolls were one of the best tuna California rolls that I've ever had!! It was like a California roll with pieces of tuna in the middle along with minced tuna sashimi spread over the top. The tuna was surprisingly fresh and creamy. Needless to say, I will need to come back with more family members. I cannot wait to try all of the other dishes on this menu. By the way, there are a ridiculous number of items to choose from on this menu. Don't forget to flip the menu over. There is something for everyone on this menu. And yes, they serve alcohol even though I don't really like alcohol myself. I'm pretty sure that I also read that there is a mimosa flight of 4 flavors if you love champagne. There is an inside air-conditioned portion of Krudo's sushi and modern kitchen. There's also an outdoor seating area. I was fortunate enough to have Antonio as my waiter. He was friendly and knowledgeable and guided my food choices well

The service was great, Aileen remembered us from previous visits and mentioned the changes that have happened over the past 2-3 years since the last visit.

I was impressed by how beautifully decorated the interior is with regional Mexican adornments. Additionally, everything is super clean, including the condiment bar. This is a one woman show, where the food is made to order. While admirable, it lends to food not being at peak temperature, which I felt was the case for my order of Sopes. While the flavor is great, there's other factors which keep me from giving it 4 or 5 stars; including the carne asada being tough. There's lots of potential to this spot though.
