New fav spot ! Don't hesitate if you're thinking about it haven't tried their lunch items, but had a breakfast burrito and it was solid. In terms of value it is up there. I have not found any burritos to be as delicious fresh and low cost as these. Service was fast. I called the order and it was ready within 5-10 minutes. Full salsa bar is also available. It's a small quaint shop. I think it shares a space with the bakery next-door. I did not dine in, but there are tables inside and outside to sit. read more

Great service and excellent food! I Would most definitely recommend their asada tacos and chicken mulitas!!

Tasty menudo! The broth was rich and flavorful, and the meat was tender with no weird pieces. Portion size was solid and it tasted just like authentic homemade menudo. Definitely a comfort dish done right -- I'll be coming back for it again. read more

El Tacorin - Tacos: Asada, Pastor, Cabeza - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I've been coming here for many many years and still love it !! My go to are the asada mulitas and I add beans to it . So good!! Everyone is very friendly as well. The restaurant is small so I always order to go. Don't forget the pineapple agua Fresca. read more

A friend of mine decided to stop by this location. I stopped by before with another friend of mine but we noticed they took cash only and that sort of canceled our plans. I noticed through the reviews many people raved about this location so of course it made me curious. The service is very efficient and welcoming. Parking pretty much depends on the time you arrive because It's limited. The dining area on the inside and the outside is quite tight and small so it's better to take your food to go. I tried their chicken tacos with a squirt. My friend decided to go with carne asada tacos. She was very pleased with how tender the meat was. Me personally, my tacos taste ordinary, nothing really stands out about them. The prices are quite high but the portions aren't all that great. I appreciate the fact that they have a mini bar with the different toppings that you might appreciate. read more

First of all, I was going to swing by after work one Friday and I saw that it was closed at 5:00 PM. I thought they closed due to Covid because the hours on here and their website said open until 8:00 PM. So recently, I decided to call around 11:00 AM and the guy that picked up said they're open until 4:00 PM. Okay, awesome! I found parking right by the front. Parking is horrible in South LA so you may have to circle around 2-3 times. Even the neighborhoods are full. There was a little window that says "order here." I ordered lengua, carnitas, al pastor, and cabeza tacos. The cashier got my order wrong, but I didn't realize this until I was back at work... so minus one star for that. I brought some home for my husband and he loved it. I just reheated everything in the toaster oven for 8-10 minutes. The hand-made tortillas hold up really well and prevents the taco from getting soggy. The taste of the carnitas and cabeza were absolutely amazing. That flavor was delicious and you can't find it around the O.C. I thought the pastor was just okay. I really enjoyed the sauces and the pickled carrots and onions. Cash only. Will come back to try other items on the menu. read more

I love love love this place!! If you're ever in South Central L.A. and have a craving for some real, authentic Mexican food, El Tacorin is the place to go!! It's a little hole in the wall and sometimes hard to miss if you're driving down Broadway too fast but it's worth stopping and turning around for. I ordered a shrimp taco, fish taco and carne asada taco. All three were extremely delicious and unique in flavor. While you're there, don't forget to grab a Mulita, they are equally amazing!! The place is extremely small and has about 4 seats inside and maybe 3 outside. If I go, I make sure to go before the sun goes down... ijs Enjoy!! read more

Without a doubt the number 1 taco spot in Los Angeles Fresh tortillas , salsa was fire and all the add on was great steak, shrimp and tongue all read more

I always have a great experience at Tacorin. The food and the people are top notch. I always hit that spot when I go into town.

Have you ever been to a taco place that has really good meat or good tortillas, but rarely both? This place has BOTH. We watched our freshly made tortillas come off the griddle. The pastor is perfectly seasoned. Not too tough or chewy. Hands down some of the best I've had in LA. Try their pickled carrots. You won't regret it. Very nice staff! Only downside is their hours are a little short. 8am- 4/5pm most days. Great for lunch. read more

Small hole in the wall outside is not that great area is very sketch to say the least. This place has good tamales, and the tacos come with handmade tortillas an I have to admit that newish cook is cute. Lol I will be back and back. read more

This is the original La Taquiza. They're popular for their mulitas. A mulita is two torillas, cheese, meat, and guacamole. It's basically a tortilla burger, sans beef patty. The food is almost the same. The meat has changed slightly. Maybe it's the way they chop their asada, but I'm not sure. I feel like it used to have more of a charcoal flavor. The new owner is the cousin of the original, and they said they didn't change their recipe. I still love their home made tortillas, and the salsa bar is still the same. If you've ever been to the one near USC, then this place is very similar. The one by USC does offer more varieties, and holds a more expansive menu, but this place makes tortillas as you order. That's a key difference. Decor is minimal, and by minimal, I mean nonexistent. There's barely anywhere to sit. Please don't come here for any other reason than a quick eat. The food speaks for itself. read more

If you're ever in South Central - or even near the area - and craving tacos, this is the place to eat. Their asada pastor (grilled pork) and carne asada (beef) tacos are amazingly delicious, and everything at this place is extremely affordable (a little more than a buck a taco). There's also a toppings bar where you can smother your tacos in as much pico de gallo, mild/hot sauce, pickled veggies, etc. as your heart desires. The only con is there isn't much seating at this place, but the food more than makes up for it. Just writing this review makes me want to go back for more tacos... read more

My wife and I wanted some Tacos and had originally planned on getting the family pack from Sonoratown tacos downtown, however they were not selling them because of a technical issue they had,so I went to YELP for HELP!! I saw this place with nothing but 5 stars and after reading the reviews I decided to try them. We order 9 tacos 6 Asada and 3 chicken. I got home and when we took our first bite of the asada we were both impressed. The meat had great flavor and the tortillas are hand made. These were some of the best tacos I've had. The meat alone was awesome. Ordering from here you will not be disappointed. Definitely will be back!!!! read more
