Churro truck

Churros are ok, but their attitude is awful. La señora no tiene nada de modo para atender a la jente.

Churros are ok they need more cinnamon!
Ana H.

Churros are ok they need more cinnamon and sugar. Or else they taste like dough. Keep that in mind.

Favorite churros in LA so far, next to the Lorena pharmacy. Plenty of parking. Churros are crisp with a perfect, flavorful batter. Made right in front of you, $7 a bag. Toppings extra.

Always fresh!

This place always deliver fresh, warm, great tasting Churros! Having frequented many parts of Mexico, I can honestly contest that Lorena Street Churro Cart is as authentic as they get! When you arrive and place your order ($3 for bag of 8), they instantly turn the batter wheel and out go the churros, straight into the frier. The smell as they cook to a golden brown is so distinct , you know right away these churros are special! Anyone who has had a genuine churro can contest to this! Fresh and Hot from the frier, the preparer instantly drizzles a yummy blend of sugar & cinnamon all over them. The churros than are scooped and placed into a bag for you! Thats it! Simply delightful in a matter of minutes! Along with churros, they serve Fried Plantains and individually wrapped candies. I can't review the other delights as I've yet to try them. Provecho!

So they have a little truck now.. the service was good and I blew my diet out of the water with their churros lol.. strawberry filled and regular..I ate them like they were fries!.. sorry no pic but I promise you'll love their clean little kitchen and their warm churros.. setting by and tell me what u think

I have had churros and nothing compares to these. The freshness is the best. We usually have to wait in line, usually no more than 30 minutes, but they are worth it. Price, $5 a dozen..

My brother in law works at Lorena Pharmacy and my sister was raving about their churros so we decided to drive out to get some one night. The churros are fried fresh and the price is great. You get about 14 churros for $5. My only complaint was the cinnamon sugar was not coated on the churro evenly so there are parts of the churro that didn't have enough sugar. Also, there was a little too much salt in the cinnamon sugar. I get that it adds a different flavor however there was too much in that batch of sugar. My sister whose ordered it before agreed it was too salty this time around.

The first time I went on a weekday in the middle of the day, so it was super empty and not the best because nothing was being made fresh- the meats and potatoes were kind of just sitting in bins so although the flavor was there, the cooled down temperatures really affected the taste. HOWEVER, I visited a few more times after that, these times all late at night, which really turned my experience around. I think at those times there were a lot more people and long lines, so everything was being made fresh and it being hot just made the food taste so so much better. I love how the toppings are all self-serve, and the hot potato is my favorite side. Carne asada, lengua, and al pastor are my go-tos. You'll want to add hellaaa green sauce to everything- I could literally drink that stuff straight. Love the big easy parking lot here, I'll mention that I saw a few security people checking all the cars and plates so I wouldn't recommend trying to park here and walk somewhere else!

I was able to snag two tacos for $4.50 that tided me over until dinner time. Now: bring your car because there's no place to sit! I arrived on foot, so dined standing up. Quite a variety of means - I'm a "safe" eater and enjoyed pollo and asada. I loved the self-serve salsas; the green salsa was delish and had a good little kick to it. Happy to have found this spot, and want to come back! 2026: 32/100

tl;dr: come here if you want best value and don't want to drive too far into South LA for authentic…read moreTj tacos. They don't know much English but that's okay and don't be intimidated! They're really friendly and the tacos does all the talking here. Everything from tortilla, salsa, guac, and meat was great but not like I haven't tasted the flavors before. The thing is, this place does every component right, which in my opinion, makes a perfect taco. Usually you find a spot that has bomb af meat, but the salsa lacks flavors. There are some places that has great tortillas but the prices suck and they don't know to season or control their grill. This place got the process down and for $2.50, I'd say it's perfect (more consistent in taste than Tacos Los Poblanos). I went when it was not busy at all but the taste was all there ~ that's saying something for street food. They do their meats right. Asada was surpsingly juicy even though it wasn't straight from the mesquite grill. Most Tj taco stands' asada gets dry and withered when it sits, but this place most likely marinaded, grilled at the right temp, or chose the right cut of beef because it didn't give me a mouth feel of dried meat and juicy salsa/onion taste. Tacos should have all the ingredients compliment each other, not there to compensate for one ingredient's lack of quality. I wished it was because it was a tad light on the smokey flavor; the seasoning/saltiness was perfect so that made up for it. Pastor was chunky and flavorful, went really well with their salsa and guacamole. It's not the thinly sliced kind at some spits, but more similar to pork chop. I kinda like this because the meat is juicer and has a nice bite to it. Great salt and sweetness balance for sure. Adobada was pretty tasty as well; I don't eat this often since most stands/trucks don't do this (usually you find it in restaurants). It tasted like a stewed version of their pastor. Just try it and you most likely will like it. They put two salsa onto your tacos. One is a blended pico de gallo style salsa (I almost wouldn't call this pico but idk how else to describe it...tomato-dominant salsa that's not the typical salsa roja). It exude flavor that went so well with the meat; there's a nice tomato acidity that went well with it's spicy (mild but present), and I really liked this (most places just put one salsa on top). The second salsa is those orange-beige colored one similar to red salsa, it was the major spicy component of the taco. Their corn tortilla is made on the spot, bomb as usual; a bit dry however mine was from the tortilla warmer (it wasn't busy, I only bought 5 tacos. Can't complain). Usually Tj style taco spots water down their guacamole (literally more watery or added tomatillos) but this place taste like pure avocado (right texture and thickness). This is a real nice treat since most places don't do pure guacamole ~ no fillers here for sure. On top of that $2.50 for Tj style taco in this economy? It's a win for me. A new favorite taco spot.

At $3 per taco, I didn't feel it was worth it…read more They are tiny street tacos so you'll probably will get two bites out of them. I have had their tacos before when they had their brick and mortar and was not impressed then and not impressed now. The cecina was way, way too salty. The asada and pastor were better, but I don't think I will be back for a third try because I have had better. The tortillas are handmade there on the spot, but the meat could have tasted better. The reason to go is for the handmade tortillas. I believe they were charging $2.50 at their brick and mortar and on the street they are now charging $0.50 more. The pastor or adobada tacos at Tacos Tamix and Tacos 1986 are more satisfying to eat in comparison. I would not go out of my way to here. If you were close and had to choose a meat, I would stick to their asada tacos only. My favorite asada tacos in LA are still in Sylmar at Taqueria Mi Ranchito taco truck. If you're willing to drive up there, those are destination tacos. Another San Fernando Valley taqueria to try is Taqueria Tijuanense. They operate a food truck at a park in Lake Balboa and have a brick and mortar near Northridge mall. Get the Tijuana-style asada tacos or the quesabirria tacos. I get that ingredients are more expensive these days, but at $3 a pop for two bites, you better be serving up some amazing street tacos.

We opted for 6 churros because it was just two of us. The churros were so good - crunchy texture, great size, and perfectly sweet. The sauce, which we asked for on the side, was good but sometimes too sweet - so I'm glad we asked for it separately. It looks like cost has gone up recently. It took some time to order since they make it fresh, which was fine for us. There was a crowd of about 5-6 other parties waiting on the street for their churros - so you'll be in good company! Next time, we said we'd order #1 with a group of 4. I love churros as much as the next person, but I think I need to share them with more people!

This food truck is on the street, but there's ample free parking at a nearby lot and other food trucks sharing the same curb and area. I ordered 5 regular churros for $8 which was a bit pricey, but not too bad. This portion size I got was not on the menu and I inquired about these since I was looking for the lowest quantity of churros as possible. The churros were overall good and tasty. Crunchy, sugary, and fried nicely. They did taste a bit oily though, but it is a fried treat after all. These were still too much for one person though. If I had to try it again, I would want to get some sauce since I felt like it was missing those as well as bring another person to share them with.
