    Lenchita's has been around for so many years. I remember coming here as a little girl, every Sunday with my Tios' & cousins. & now i get to bring my children to enjoy these authentic dishes. Today we ordered some quesadillas de asada, Costillias, Molcajete, Caldo de rez, Sopes de asada & Gorditas de asada. The food was delicious so tasty and we have no complaints. If you are in the mood of some hand made tortillas this is the spot. The staff is always so friendly and welcoming. It is a little small restaurant that wakes you feel right at home. Stop by if you are in the mood for some authentic mexican food.

    Small portions but very tasty chile verde $13.35

    This place is as close to tasting like I'm in Mexico as I've ever had. Even the portions small, definitely not are typical but still filling and very tasty. CASH ONLY so it add up food came super quick. It took longer to get served

    The food was just like I remember it when I was a student at CSUN in the mid to late 80's. The menudo was on point and the fresh tortillas!!!!

    Sopes

    The tortillas and beans were excellent. Sopes were good, but the asada was overcooked and hard. The salsas were terrible. The red one made my food taste worse so I stopped adding it. There was a less spicy one that was almost pure water. Cash only and be prepared to have random people coming in the restaurant to sell you random things. Today we had some people selling razor blades, fruit, fake flowers, and gelatin desserts. Be prepared to wait 15 min in line to pay your bill.

    Lenchita's is a stable of Pacoima, it has been around for over 45 years. Been coming here for a long time. Every time we come to food is always great and fresh with handmade tortillas that are absolutely delicious. Great food great service, gracais a todos de Lenchita's...

    Amazing authentic Mexican food with homemade tortillas Prices are higher but still worth it.

    Food Flavor was like 6 out of 10, Service is taking too long, my coffee was cold, the female server was all disoriented and I saw people leaving the restaurant cause what they ordered to eat never arrived. I saw trash on the floor, tables were dirty. I don't recommend this place at All, Specially on the weekends. Make sure you bring your lunch while waiting here cause it's gonna be a while.

    Disgusting

    Disgusting! I start eating, and discover this dirty dish! When the waitress came to give me the bill, I said I was upset about the dirty plate. She replied that it was just stains because the plate was old! Sorry, I will not recommend dirty plates.

    Long line!

    The food is amazing and is service quickly and hot! The handmade tortillas are the best! It's kind of noisy and it can be a little unkempt but overall I would go again and again!

    We arrived by 11:00 ordered but most items on the menu were not available. There is no ambiance just disorganized.

    Got the carnitas family pack here on a Sunday and what can I say is I'd come here again just for…read morethat. My buddy and I came here on an off chance cuz initially went to Key Burger but it was closed and we stumbled upon Carnitas Don Cuco. They had a great family pack deal for $25 with beans, rice, salsa, a bowl of carnitas and fresh pressed hand made corn tortillas. Carnitas - great flavor savory and smoke notes to the pork. Also, just the right amount of fat and lean meat. Not overly greasy compared to other carnitas I've had. Beans - great flavor of beans. Not from a can. Great seasoning on it. Corn tortillas - real deal fresh pressed and homemade style corn tortillas to go with our carnitas. This was definitely the highlight of the entire pack and put it all together. All in all I'd come here again just after my match. Go with cash only. They love that. Cash is still and always will be king.

    My company catered with them and the experience was fantastic!…read more Drinks were on point, the lemonade was flavorful. Service was excellent as the food and drink were delivered to our office quickly and without issue. I did not dine in at their restaurant yet but I am now hoping to stop by if I am in the area!

    This is the place we order to go from to celebrate my birthday. I been to their Northridge location…read morewhen it was there and was craving some kabobs for my birthday so I wanted that. I placed the order through their website and selected pickup. You can order from other sites but I think it's best to order directly from the place. I got the chicken breast kabob, beef lubeb kabob, pollo quesadilla and the king combo which is the chicken and steak kabobs. I got basmati rice and shirazi for all the entree for the side. When we arrived to the plaza to pick up the food, I was surprisedd there was a lot of parking during rush hour because this place is in a small plaza with limited parking. Picking up the food was simple and I just checked that we got everything. All of the food was delicious and everyone loved it beside my wife, she didn't like the quesadilla. The chicken kabob plate only has one stick of chicken so be aware of this but on the picture, it showed two.

    DE-FREAKIN-LICIOUS! Ahh it's the standard chicken breast kabob plate for me that really does it…read more Chicken is grilled to perfection, and the rice is fluffy! I chose hummus as my side, gotta love the hummus here man. I could eat a whole tub of that. Oh and the pita bread arrives warm! Nice portions, good service, and it's close by. You'll find me stopping by here AT least once a week. Antonio's I love you. Lol
