Service was great we were greeted as soon as we entered. The food is average nothing to brag about…read more I went with the chilaquiles torta which was average. Significant other got the taquitos combo with beans and rice and the beans lacked flavor. Very bland needed salt and I never add salt to my food. Horchata also was not very sweet. Plenty of seating inside but parking is a bit tricky. They have TVs inside and they are playing music which I enjoyed.

Tucked in the corner of a small strip mall with very poor parking…read more Inside is colorful and the staff is playing R&B while singing along. Happy days. I've been missing real Mexican food and had to jump in quick to quench this desire. Free chips and salsa and it was pretty good, especially the salsa. Not too spicy hot but with great flavors. Quesa Birria Tacos were fresh, hot, and delicious. Melting cheese oozing out with every bite. And a nice, cold beer to chase it down. Oh how I missed you

Vibrant personality bilingual so knowledgeable. Basicly she's got this counter handled! Great customer service. Oh and she is wait staff as well My Wife ordered Birria tostada bowls and I went back to the wet burrito. Horchata is blended well. Hispanic music flowing makes a comfortable sit in. I may have mentioned before They are POS by clover. That have beer, bottled sodas and cans. That have a unisex restroom Small salsa bar. If you want consomé to go they have 3 sizes. They have high chairs as well. This place is hard to find just look in the left corner of the strip mall and there they are. If your in a rush be patient the food is made to order so that means it will take a few. This mom and pop prides themselves on good food that also do catering and today I have seen a lot of pick ups of trays of Birria Wow Tostada bowl is awesome well plated shell looks quality. My wet burrito is the bomb with avocado sliced on top. Haven't found a place to top this. Food taste fresh and good taste This establishment is clean and cozy yet booming.

Your favorite Yelp correspondent was in the Downey area for a medical appointment when hunger pangs happily coincided w/ my need to kill a little time for traffic to abate. I ordered a mulita asada, a pair of asada tacos, my obligatory Diet Coke and a flan. The latter item would make my wife and doctor cringe because of my diabetes...So I ordered it solely for research, to give you fellow Yelpers an appraisal. My doctor and wife will be pleased to know I only sampled two bites of the flan. Tacos Gavilán features a well-provisioned self serve bar, brimming with all manner of flavorful sides. From refried beans to queso to finely minced onions y cilantro and multiple salsas, there's no shortage of items that'll elevate your order to Flavortown. The service is quick and friendly. The caliber of the food is good, tho not stellar. Certainly will fill you up and that's all you can or should expect at their (reasonable) prices The flan, made for Tacos Gavilán by a company called Flan-Tastic, is, true to its manufacturer, fantastic. Super moist, drenched in caramel with a bouncy, jello-like consistency. ALMOST as good as my best friend Mick's Cuban wife makes for special occasions. For my entree, two tacos, medium fountain beverage and dessert I spent $19.95, incl taxes.
