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.

On another note, I'd skip the pork though...I found it a bit dry. The parking lot is huge and there's security all over, so despite it being in a "sketch" part of downtown, it still feels relatively safe. Also, they accept credit card. There's no toilets or tables though, so you have to eat standing or in your car. *Hot take, I think this place is better than the famous Tacos el Gordo in San Diego.

Lol I don't like fried food much. Somehow, I was convinced to get the fried quesadilla. It surpassed my expectations. Like I had a feeling it would be good, but I didn't think it would be this FRiGgin GOOD!! The corn tortilla was different from the reg tortilla. It was a bit thicker and a bit chewy. The beef was fresh and well seasoned. OMG, the cheese pull was unexpected. Everything was balanced. Yumm!! I like how they placed the grilled onions on the side. I don't like onions, but I dont mind some grilled onions here and there. The grilled onions added even more flavor to the quesadilla =) BOMB!! They also provided pickled onions and cucumbers on the side. There were 4 different types of sauces avail. For $10, I was surprised that it was all stuffed with beef inside. Yelpers didn't let me down. Thanks! Service was 100%. The guys were friendly & ADORABLE! =)

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.

There is something delectably delicious about street tacos when they're done right…read more This place is pretty new but they are already garnering a crowd on a daily basis. It's run by a lovely couple who really pay attention to details. Tacos are quite tasty and made to order. If you're opting for the tripe ones you'll have to wait a bit. But the other options are ready relatively quickly. They have al pastor (pork), chorizo (Mexican sausage), asada, tripa (tripe), and buche and all of the ones I've tried have been tasty. The condiments are always fresh and include fresh cucumber and nopalitos (cactus salad). The guacamole is creamy and rich and the hot sauce is a perfect marriage of heat and smokiness. I usually get the Horchata because it is refreshing and a perfect balance of cinnamon and sweetness. After you grab your plate you can sit in the few tables and chairs the have and enjoy Sw Spanish news. But come early because the lines get long as the night progresses. Pro: tasty tacos, sides and drinks Cons: long wait for tripe and limited seating.
