Best taco truck around. They make the best tortillas on site and the staff are all great. Their food is consistent and priced great. Don't waste your time going to the truck across the street, seriously, they're unprofessional and just not as good. read more

They recently changed to charcoal, everything is delicious now. You we have to go check it out!!!! read more

La Tehuana - Menu - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

We used to get late night tacos here for more than 10 years. Few days ago, we came here around 11pm to get some tacos after drinks. First of all, the lady getting orders was not too friendly. Maybe she was tired. Second, they don't make their own tortilla, which they used to. And hot sauce was an ass burner the next morning. Anyway, it wasn't a good experience. Maybe we had such good time for years previously, we were expecting more. Next time, we will go to the one in Olympic & Normandie. I heard that they have good food & good vibes. read more

La Tehuana - a food truck at night - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

the food is solid . the meat and the tortillas taste good not too heavy and honestly the tacos are some of the best .

I went here today and they had no rice. How are you selling burritos but not have rice, make it make sense

Honestly the best quesillo burrito I had in a long time.. this place is good! perfect example how food trucks are better than most places. read more

La Tehuana - Quesillo Burrito - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

A lot has changed since I last went to this truck. From what I see in the reviews, they have changed some of their long-time good ways. A shame they don't make the tortillas anymore and charge for all the sauces. Anyway, this is a very dated review that I insist on communicating to the world about. The mafia of yelp decided to take the original review down from 2018, because they just do that randomly, I believe. But I have slightly altered my original review, so the snowflakes don't melt with some of the words I used. I will rewrite it in past-tense since my review was from pre-covid-19 days. The women who worked there when I went were awesome. The sidewalk needed a good scrub down for sure, but the food was great. It was on 3rd street going West at Normandie Ave. I believe it is still in the same location. It wasn't too hard to find, as they've had blinking lights on the top of the truck. It was more like a trailer than an actual truck. I gave a 4-star because the neighborhood is dirty and the truly P.O.S. MX-ican-street-bums who tried to pick up on the women waiting for a burrito was really such a hazard. Why you gotta always ruin it, dude? Don't look at her, don't speak to her, stay away from her. She does not want to engage with you and you have no chance--ever. Wish anything you want inside your bird-brain, but stop your squawking and gawking. This is why humans can't have nice things, and this is why we have laws. Because knuckleheads like the ones hanging around on the brickwall can't control yourselves. So not really the truck's fault but it really is the most distressing thing to deal with. My burrito was $5 at that time. Bottle of coke $2 at that time. Tip $1 at the time. Cash only at that time. Worth it financially at that time. But the stress of having to deal with the "dude-stank" really brings it down. read more

Tacos here did not miss. Could tell the stand was family-owned and operated, and they were all super nice to my friends and me even though it was super late at night. $2 / taco and they came with all the right toppings. Also, if you like spice, this place has probably the spiciest salsa I've ever gotten from a taco stand. read more

La Tehuana - Chorizo, al pastor, asada tacos - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Good street tacos. Great portions and the salsa is really good. Also get the season grilled onions on the side

They were out of chorizo so the girl suggested carnitas. I've never really been impressed with carnitas but the girl said it was one of her favorites so I tried one. What a let down. It was just as unimpressive as every other carnitas taco I've ever tried. Fortunately the carne asada was good. And the al pastor? The al pastor was amazing. Shockingly, wonderfully good. So good in fact that I wanted some more. I go back for another couple al pastor tacos and now they're out. So you're out of two of the most flavorful meats and instead offer one of the least impressive? Frustrating. read more

Truck is never the same that it used to be. They don't make their own tortillas anymore. They charge you for the avocado sauce and all the sauces are inside and if you want extra they will charge you even for the limes wedges! read more

BEWARE. THEY WATER DOWN THEIR SAUCES AND CHARGE EXTRA. We ordered around 14 tacos and the $1 guac was barely enough for 2 tacos and a half. This establishment has been cheating costumers over the years and is extremely stingy with its condiments. The container wasn't even filled halfway. They can't possibly expect you to buy 6 servings of guac for 14 tacos? Ridiculous. Don't be afraid to confront them about this. read more

Best carnitas in LA. Come early they often sell out. Add avocado for maximum fat ass power. It's cash only so bring your bills. The staff is amazing and very helpful. Top 3 taco spot in LA for me, plus they open hella late for your late night gordo runs. read more

Came here completely randomly, while my brother, boyfriend, and I were on the search for a late-night taco binge. Saw this random taco truck with a crowded line and I immediately made an illegal U-turn and almost ran through a red light. The danger I encounter for food.. After my brother yelled at me until we parked, we lined up to order Tacos de: buche, asada, al pastor, carnitas, and lengua. They hand press the corn tortillas, making them piping hot and fresh to order: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/7uPtiieYpyUaca9W6waqtw?select=2xs3j-8eAMU-zekpDi_Opg Hmmm, I want a tortilla press!! I recommend the tacos than burritos. I noticed that the burrito is mostly packed with black beans, while there was tasty and soft meat, just not enough. Get the tacos ($1.25)!! My brother said it was one of the best lengua and al pastor tacos he's had in a while. I think they also specialize in quesadillas. La Tehuana is usually located next to a parking lot of a Lucy's Laundromat and a movie rental store, but they aren't stingy about parking and/or loitering there. That parking lot was our dining room and my car hood was my dining table: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/7uPtiieYpyUaca9W6waqtw?select=lVldbVekIUJX1snZpmKJxQ Oh.. and the red sauce is spicy but kinda weak. The green sauce is DELICIOUS, and still spicy ;) A solid choice for a late night snack! read more

See all

I got here right as they were opening. I think I was a little early actually, but they said 5-10 minutes and they would help me out. The girl working the window was friendly. Idk if it's just because I was the first customer of the day or what, but the food was really, really fresh and delicious. I got a carnitas burrito with everything and the carnitas was perfect (just cooked to crisp the sides). I got red and green salsa and the girl working said "be careful with the red, it might be hot for you" and I laughed and said "oh it's okay" and I got excited because I thought their salsas might be spicy, but they're not at all even a little bit. They're really fresh and well made salsa, but not hot at all but I didn't even care because the food was so good. The only thing I would change would be to maybe add one really hot salsa and some fresh drinks like horchata, agua de pepino, champurrado, of somethings like that! But I will still be back either way read more

I'm not going to make this review fancy; I think if you give this taco truck a shot, the food will speak for itself. $1.25 for a taco? Great price to pay to get through the gates to taco heaven. Corn tortillas from scratch (you can see the woman making it from the window), awesome salsa bar so you can take as much as you want, and great flavors from the meat to the spices! I've tried their carne asada, carnitas, and tacos al pastor (shepherd-style tacos). Incase you're unfamiliar with this type of taco, it's made with thin pork steaks seasoned with adobada seasonings, skewered, and overlapped on one another, rotisserie cooked, and flame broiled. Delicious, I say! I generally pass by the La Tehuana truck at night while they're parked on 3rd and Normandie. Please go try their tacos for yourself and taste for yourself what a GREAT taco is supposed to taste like! ;) GOOD EATIN'! read more

La Tehuana - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Parked outside a laundromat on 3rd + Normandie. I've been known to drive pretty far for Street tacos (Mariscos Jalisco, El Korita, TacoZone, Tacos Los Guichos, Rambos, Leo's, Tacos Jeesys, Tacos El Pelon...etc, etc. and those are just the trucks!) but LA TEHUANA is my "local." Not everything is great. SOmetimes the Tortas are just "okay" and the Alhambres are aren't my bag. BUT. Hooooooooo, the carnitas are ON IT man. Whether its Burrito or Tacos, I will SLURP THAT DOWN. SO GOOD. Agh. Just eat it. EATTTTTTT IT. read more

Taco truck in Koreatown, right on 3rd street. They make corn tortillas from scratch in front of your EYES. The only downfall is that no one speaks english... It's only an issue because I don't know a word of spanish. They have things written in spanish so my boyfriend and I just ordered 4 tacos using horrible pronunciation and google translator... First world problems for sure. The tacos were two chicken, pork, and beef and it costs about $6 or $7. I really had my heart set on lengua (tongue apparently) but they were out. At least I understood her saying "no, no, no"! You can add your own toppings there and aside from tacos they have quesadillas, burritos, and tortas. I'll definitely be adding this place to the dinner rotation since it's two blocks from my house! read more

La Tehuana - Carnitas tacos...under a mound of salsa and lettuce! - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Best taco truck in LA!! Because my girlfriend hates me, I have to come here if I ever want lengua or cabeza. All tacos are delicious, but special nod goes to the carnitas. Nice juicy chunks of meat that blow Leo's out of the water. Yeah I said it. Fight me. They always warn me about the red sauce and I always scoff saying "Trump is president...I can endure anything" and then I always regret it the next day on the toilet. This is not a game! read more

I've been coming here for the past 10 years on and off. Asada, carnitas , trompa and tripa are delicious . Taste is very consistent as well as salsas . Never changes . This guy is legit . They used to have handmade tortillas for the tacos but now only for the tlayudas . Og mex food read more

Burrito was disappointing. Pretty much made of rice, black beans, and meat. Very light on meat + my burrito wasn't really full. No red salsa or lime or anything. Their quesadilla was pretty good though so I guess they get 3 stars for that. read more

It's just a taco truck, but they make corn tortillas from scratch. Yes, from scratch. The salsa bar has guacamole, and red salsa that's SPICY. It has actual flavor. It doesn't just incinerate your palate, although it does have a bite. There's the other standard fare, such as radishes, onions, cilantro, green salsa, and etc. It's usually parked on the northwest corner, of 6th and Normandie. Usually parked in front of Lucky's Laundry. You can park in the lot, if you can't find street parking. Everyone else seems to. The asada is delicious, and the tortillas are GREAT! read more

I once heard you can judge a taco truck by their Pastor tacos and let me tell you, this trucks pastor is 5 stars. Its not dry at all. They use a corn tortilla that is made from scratch. I have been here twice and each time was magical! My wife did like the carne asada tacos better but I am still undecided. try it for yourself, you will not be disappointed. tacos are $1.25 but you get a guac type salsa at no extra charge. they are on the corner of 3rd and normandie, next to lucy's. Tip- Salsas are very spicy- so watch out read more

Best carnitas tacos I ever had! I just wish they would go back to using handmade tortillas but even with regular corn tortillas tacos are the best in LA! read more

La Tehuana - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Just fell in love again. The carnitas are the best in the world. The fresh made tortillas are absolutely amazing. Get it when you can. read more

La Tehuana - This what dinner looks like for me. - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Pastor tacos are really good Asada is tasty too Chorizo is okay Way better than the Flamin' Garbage Truck everyone loves to bandwagoneer on 5th and Vermont *Tlayudas are really not good. Stick to tacos. ** I think this truck may have moved... read more

Frankly the corner is a little sketchy, but it's one of the best food truck burrito and tacos that I've had! Carnitas is excellent. read more

I was standing out for over 12-15 minutes. Only asked for 1 steak burrito, with no onions & guac. HOW HARD IS THAT TO MAKE?! I used to work at a Mexican restaurant & I had wet burritos out in less than 5 minutes. They didnt even had the tortilla warming up. WORSE FUCKING SERVICE IN LOS ANGELES Orders that came in after me kept getting out faster than mine. Aint never going back to this sorry ass "best taco truck" read more

Hands down best burrito in LA. Every meat is delicious. Everything made fresh and with care. Open around 7pm and closed Wednesday. Beans are refried black. I'm usually a pinto only type of girl but I don't even care. So good. Salsa made fresh, rice isn't greasy, and they have avocado. Heart. 3rd and Normandie by Lucy's coin laundry. read more

La Tehuana - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Hand made tortillas, that's all I really need to say. Just as good as the taco stands in Mexico. A little confusing lately because I'm not sure what happened to their truck but they've been working out of a Korean BBQ truck which is misleading and I've seen a few upset customers LOL! but I still love it. read more

This is one of the best taco trucks in Ktown. Every single time me and my wife have gone they never fail to be good tacos. Their meat is always soft and flavorful. Their green chili is really good. Their customer service is always above average! Would definitely recommend for anyone to stop for a quick bite! read more

I always come here when arriving from SD. Open late at night. I just park at the laundromat @ 3rd & Normandie. It hits the spot

The carnitas and carne asada here are some of the best I've tasted anywhere, sit-down restaurants included. The slightly smoky, not-too-spicy hot green sauce is a drool-inducing compliment to the already tasty meats and elevates the tacos to addictive status. In short, this taco truck rocks! read more

These tacos are so freaking good and I have been to a lot of taco places even the taco truck across the street from this one. I order 8 tacos because I thought they were going to be small like in other places, where you can finish the taco in 2 bites and they are like 1.35. These tacos are 1.25 and they are big compare to the usual ones. Another thing I liked was that they make their own tortillas you can see them being made. I was one able to finish 5 and u gave the rest to by parents and they loved them usually they are picky about their tacos lol and we are salvadorans lol. But I will be coming back here I also like is that you can put as much onion, radish, etc you want. read more

Delicious tacos! They make their tortillas on the truck and they're amazing. Try the carnitas or the pastor! So good! They are always on 3rd and Normandie on the side of the Video Hut/Lucy's Laundrymart. read more

One of the few mexican places where they carry grilled chicken!!! I love this place.. Too bad it's only on the weekends for most part. They got guacamole sauce for free and all the condiments are self served read more

Great pastor. Fresh hand made tortillas. Carne asada was ok.

Words can't describe how amazing this taco truck is, best tacos I've ever tried!!!! I highly recommend it, good service and food. their guacamole salsa is to die for. Can't wait to come back for more. read more

This place is so good that I wrote a whole blog post about it, which inspired me to write about a few other great LA taco joints just so it wasn't a monumental Tehuana-fest. Love this place! http://aarongilbreath.wordpress.com/2012/07/02/eating-tacos-in-la-three-beloved-taco-joints/ read more

I do not usually evaluate but this time I would like to do it to help other people because it is about food, a few days ago I went to eat with my friends at a lunch truck called La Tehuana and I had a very bad experience, while I waited for my food was Looking through the window because I had never vicited a place of those and I got the attention how they work there, but I realized that the place is a little dirty and suddenly I see a cockroach going down the refrigerator door and the cook guy discreetly crushed it with his finger and continued working normal without even washing his hands, I told my friends that I no longer wanted my food and asked me, wy? And when I told them what I had seen, they could not believe it, they already were eating so they could not do anything, they just stopped eating and we left. My friends and I never thought about going back to that place. This lunch truck is on the third street and normandie ave right next to lucys laundry read more
