Came yesterday and had the best experience! Our server was awesome, he was so attentive and went out of his way to make our experience a good one. He made sure we had everything we needed and took the time to have conversation with us. Good service goes a long way and it was really refreshing to have a server who just seemed so happy to be there and proud of the environment they were in. The food was amazing! We got the esquite, shrimp ceviche, and asada sopes. All of it was SO good! I get an esquite anywhere that offers one, and this was by far my favorite I've had at a restaurant so far. It was all fresh and looked so presentable. The one photo I have isn't the best quality and clearly we were already digging in, so it doesn't do justice to the presentation. Overall, my experience here was very good and I will definitely be back! read more

Los Compadres Tacos - Ceviche, esquite - Tacos Near Me - Whittier, California

Found this spot while shopping nearby and decided to give it a try--so glad I did. I ordered the asada burrito with extra cilantro, and it was absolutely amazing. The flavors were on point, the meat was well-seasoned, and everything came together perfectly. Honestly, it's one of the best burritos I've had in the area. The shop itself is small, but it has a very authentic feel that adds to the experience. The staff were friendly and helpful, which made the visit even better. Definitely coming back to work my way through the rest of the menu. Highly recommend if you're in the area! read more

It was my first time visiting today and I came because I wanted to see if the raving reviews were legitimate. Well, they absolutely were! These ladies are cooking up a delicious storm here. I tried the enchilada plate with mole, and a chile relleno à la cart, with a cup of coffee. The coffee came first and I already knew this place was going to be a step up. The coffee was strong with good body. It wasn't the typical weak cup of coffee that might as well be water. After a little milk and sugar it was perfecto! Then the food arrived! It was all plated beautifully. My eyes definitely had the first bite. I always try the beans first when I try new places. For me, the beans set the stage for what to expect from the rest of the meal. To my delight, the beans were very good. They were seasoned really well and had great flavor. They were bland, or watery, or burnt or anything. Beautiful beans. Now the rice...it was great too! Again, great flavor and texture. They were soggy or bland. Great, beans and rice passed the test. Now for this mole...again! Also delicious! This mole tasted like they make it in house. The flavors weren't typical of store bought. I the chicken mole enchiladas were great. Lastly, is the chile relleno. It had chunks of tender veggies like tomato and bell peppers. The cheese was melted and oozing. When I tasted it I knew they invest in quality cheese. It also had a nice flavor. I think a lot of places use really cheap cheese and you can't even taste it. The salsa, chile, thick egg breading and cheese was all perfect. I am going to return to try the menudo. So happy I came here! It's definitely a new go-to when I'm craving Mexican. read more

Los Compadres Tacos - Mike fluatas ! Got half way through , was good decided to leave a review - Tacos Near Me - Whittier, California

Don't waste your time!!! I went over there to check it out the other day and was extremely disappointed. The burritos we ordered were loaded with salt!! I took it to go, so didn't know until I got home. I was very disappointed in that place. I had high hopes only to be let down! Do NOT go there you will be disappointed. My husband has high blood pressure and with all that salt added, it was not a good mix. First and last time going there. read more

Nothing I like better than to try out a small Mom and Pop restaurant and give them a 5 star review! This place is a small, unassuming, Mexican restaurant in a strip mall with outstanding Mexican food. I tried the soft taco plate with rice and beans. So good! The carne asada tacos were juicy and delicious, nice meaty flavor with a pretty substantial level of heat. They asked me if I wanted everything on them and I told them yes. Some of the best soft tacos I've ever had. Reasonably priced. This is mostly a take out place with some indoor seating. Old school Mexican restaurant decor. read more

I had an amazing Carnitas burrito with extra cilantro and onions. It was the best that I ever had in Whittier. I will try and go there in a few weeks and make sure the consistency is the same. That's a sign of a great restaurant with Service. read more

We were in the area and looking for spot to eat and this place did NOT disappoint! We had the pork meat on green salsa (chile verde) and it came with rice and beans. The meat was tender the sauce was soooo good! The beans were delish. We also had the carne en su jugo which was equally as delicious. Both came with hand made tortillas. Enjoyed the food and the owners (?) were polite and we enjoyed their singing in the background as it provided for a comfortable relaxed homey setting for us (you know the setting where Mom/Pops are cooking in kitchen and singing their hearts out, that should give you a sign the food will be bomb) We will definitely be back. read more

They changed the chips on the nachos, now they are no longer crunch when you take them home. It used to be the chilaquiles chips which made them some of the best nachos in town. Unfortunate but the flavor really suffers read more
