Torta
A G.

Probably the worse torta I've ever had. The salsa's, red and green were very bland. The service was friendly but I don't think we'll be back.

3 Red Tacos + Consome
Kim T.

Loved this place so much that we visited two days in a row. The restaurant is located in a small plaza with a parking lot. The first time we came around lunch and the second time we came around dinner. Be prepared to wait a bit for you food at dinnertime because it can get busy but it's totally worth it. There are a few seats inside, self serve salsa bar, and a sink to wash your hands. We tried the street tacos, red tacos, and red quesadilla. I highly recommend the red tacos and red quesadilla! It was sooo good. The portions are huge! The food is more on the expensive side but I would say worth it for the portions you get. The birria and lengua were my favorite meats. My boyfriend said the asada and al pastor were just okay.

carnitas burrito
Ernie S.

I really don't like burritos that are all mixed with rice and beans and onions, but for the first time in EVER, this carnitas burrito was perfect in every way. not greasy. fatty. mushy with the rice and beans. I had another after this and another.

This place is in a strip mall so it's pretty easy to find parking. They have an extensive menu, many different types of tacos and meat options. They also have red and green salsa which you can scoop yourself into portion control containers. The tacos typically come with some onions and lime on the side and also radish slices. The food was very tasty and I enjoyed it very much. The server was friendly and we got our food quickly. The interior is brightly lit, and there are only a handful of tables. I got the impression a lot of people were doing takeout.

Ordered burrito with no rice, got a burrito that was about half rice
C S.

Let me say this first, the food is good. I've had it delivered several times and it and the food is yummy..... but...... almost every order is incorrect. So much so that we wonder what will be wrong while awaiting the delivery. We used to order from here a lot more but we got tired of the orders being wrong and haven't ordered there in weeks until today. Today's failure. We ordered a burrito with no rice and received a burrito that was about half rice, see picture. It's just getting harder and harder to order from here as there are a lot of great places to get Mexican food in the north valley.

I ordered the food online two hours ago with a specific pickup time of 12:10pm. When I arrived, the food hadn't even started being prepared. Why have an online system if it's not going to be ready in advance? This is very disappointing, as it was for a customer meeting, and now I have to wait.

The food was real good. I had the red tacos with the dip (consome) which was excellent. Friendly service. They got a reward program so I'm coming back to try the birria ramen and nachos. Easy parking, right off the 210 freeway

I love a good taco restaurant and Guanatos tacos has excellent food. I tried the Red Quesadillas and my buddy tried the regular quesadillas ( both have birria). I have to say they were both outstanding, however, the nod goes to the "Red ". The Red sauce just adds so much more flavor. They give you big portions and you will leave very full. There are many choices on the menu and drinks. The staff was friendly and helpful with recommendations. The seating area is limited, so get there early before the lunch crowd. This place fills up and so does the Parking. It's in a strip mall with other businesses, so first come first served. The food is great, but a little pricy ( the reason for the 4 stars and not 5). I will definitely be back, maybe on Taco Tuesday.

All of us were in the area and was thinking of an easy spot to grab dinner at. There was a group of…read moreus and we all came and found spots easily at the parking lot. The vampiros tacos was what I ordered and wow they were so delicious!!! They aren't like your ordinary tacos and this spot is family-owned and are authentic. I loved the grilled onions because they were tender and full of that fatty flavor from the grilled meats. The tortillas with the tacos were crunchy (that's the vampiro style) and I actually like soft tacos more but I loved these. The fresh salsas are always a necessity for me and I came back for more. They are on the side so you can easily grab them after ordering. For pricing, I wish they weren't so expensive at $3 a taco but I at least feel like they packed the tacos with enough meat and toppings. The vampiro fries were also pretty delicious and had a great amount of flavor. This spot also does catering which is cool! They are open everyday except for Mondays.

Once I made it to the front, the staff treated me like royalty; the customer service here is truly top-notch. As for the food, I ordered the Al pastor fries, and my jaw dropped when they handed it over. The serving size is absolutely massive and could easily feed 3 to 4 hungry people! They are incredibly generous with all the toppings, especially the beautifully seasoned meat, and the flavor was entirely on point. Just keep in mind that the restaurant itself is pretty cozy with limited indoor seating, and while they do have a charming outdoor patio, space is tight there as well. Pro tip: do yourself a favor and order ahead of time for pickup to beat the crowd!

There are several tables to sit at and A TV with soccer playing. My order was done fairly quickly and packed very well. The tacos were all labeled The tacos were stuffed with meat. At other places I usually order four so that is what I got here but I was full after three! The rice and beans were very tasty as well. I reheated my fourth taco later that evening and it was still good I definitely want to go back and try the tortas and other items

I usually go to the Glendale location, so it was nice to finally check this one out in person. We stopped by around 10:30 PM on a Thursday, and I was honestly surprised to find a place in Valencia still open that late! They're open until midnight on Thursdays, which is such a big plus because I don't see many places around here open this late. We tried the carne asada fries and a beef burrito. The carne asada fries were my favorite -- thick sidewinder-style fries loaded with carne asada, cheese, guacamole, salsa, and sauces. Super filling and great for sharing. The burrito was also huge and packed with meat, rice, beans, and lots of flavor. The menu has plenty of options including tacos, burritos, tortas, bowls, fries, and even breakfast served all day. I also liked having several different salsas on the side. This location is right next to a gas station, parking is easy, and it seems especially convenient for takeout. I also liked the little community area up front with local flyers, business cards, and discount coupons -- it gives the place a nice neighborhood feel. Really nice to have a late-night option like this in Valencia. We'll definitely be back!

A Hidden Gem Worth Stopping For!…read more I've driven past this place so many times but never stopped in. Well, today was finally the day, and I'm glad I did! After chatting with the friendly ladies inside, I learned that the restaurant is under new ownership and is now called La Vaca Mex Cafe in Sylmar, CA. I ordered a hand-pressed corn tortilla taco with a delicious mix of carnitas, buche, and cueritos, topped with fresh cilantro. I also tried the carnitas nachos, loaded with beans, cheese, guacamole, and sour cream. You can add pico de gallo if you prefer. Both dishes came with salsa on the side, which was a nice touch. Everything I ordered was good, and I really enjoyed being able to watch the food being freshly prepared right in front of me. The restaurant has an open, spacious feel without being cramped, and there's plenty of parking in the rear, which is always a plus! I arrived just as the ladies were starting to clean up for the day, but they were still welcoming and friendly. I appreciated that, especially being a first-time customer. I'm definitely looking forward to coming back and exploring more of their menu. There are several other items I'd love to try! If you've been driving past this spot like I have, it might be time to stop in and give it a try. I'm happy I finally did!

This vendor Angels Tijuana tacos they're located on the corner of Mason and Devonshire in the city of Chatsworth border. So what was so unique about this taco stand was that the line starts from the right when the first person that you come in contact with is someone who's making the flower tortillas made to order then depending on what kind of meat you want on your tacos, it's moved down the line and you tell the person making the tacos. What kind of meat you want I had Carne Asada Tacos and they had 3 different types of hot sauces, from A mild to a hot. $3.75 each Taco Bell. Well worth it. A must try. No over head no rent to pay. There's many taco spots in San Fernando Valley, but this is ranked pretty high up there however they didn't have any chairs or tables for you to sit down but you're able to sit in your car park in front of it. It's in the parking lot of the Vons market, but I do have to say these three employees did a fantastic job and moving the line through.

Unfortunately, this visit left a bad taste in my mouth, and it had nothing to do with the food. We arrived approximately 15 minutes before happy hour ended, which was purely coincidental because I wasn't even aware of their happy hour schedule. Upon entering, I needed to use the restroom, so the person I was dining with was seated by the host. When I returned, I noticed we still hadn't received menus or been approached by a server, despite a waitress standing nearby looking directly at our table. Since no one had acknowledged us, my dining companion decided to walk over to the bar to take advantage of the happy hour specials. On his way back, he politely asked the waitress about getting menus. Her response was unnecessarily rude and unprofessional. She snapped, "This isn't self-seating! That's why you haven't gotten a menu!" She then proceeded to explain that it was her section. He calmly informed her that we had, in fact, been seated by the host. Rather than apologizing for her assumption, she went over to the host, said something while looking in our direction, and the host confirmed that he had indeed seated us. At that point, she disappeared into the kitchen, and another waitress approached our table. This second waitress was absolutely wonderful! She apologized for the confusion, took our drink order, and provided the level of hospitality you would expect when dining out. Unfortunately, the situation didn't end there. The original waitress continued making comments about us to coworkers as they passed by, making an already uncomfortable situation even more unpleasant. It was obvious that she had an issue with us, and rather than handling a simple misunderstanding professionally, she chose to make it everyone else's business. We eventually requested to speak with the general manager. He was understanding and offered us several $10 discount cards for future visits, along with a complimentary dessert, which I politely declined because I'm not much of a dessert person. I appreciated his attempt to make things right, but I want to make one thing very clear: We were not looking for discounts, free food, or special treatment. We simply expected basic respect and decent customer service. In fact, I ended up giving away the discount cards because, after that experience, I had no desire to return. The food was great, the drinks were good, and the waitress who stepped in to take care of us was fantastic. She deserves recognition for her professionalism and for turning an uncomfortable situation into a more pleasant dining experience. However, one employee's attitude can completely overshadow everything a restaurant does right. Customer service is about the CUSTOMER. You're not required to love every interaction, but you are expected to remain professional, respectful, and courteous. If dealing with customers bothers you that much, perhaps a warehouse position would be a better fit. It's unfortunate because La Popular has genuinely good food, but no amount of delicious queso fundido or complimentary desserts can make up for being treated like an inconvenience simply for walking through the door.
