The food is mouthwatering. The ambiance was amazing, fantastic music, and the service was excellent, you are made to feel at home. And you are greeted with smiles! I ordered tacos dorados, it comes with salsa and consome. Let me just say... the consome absolutely filled with so much flavor. The tacos were crunchy!

    Another Eat the World LA Find That Delivered…read more Weekday workday, only an hour for lunch, and I was craving soup -- so I decided to try another Eat the World LA find: CH Y La Birria in Compton. As usual, it did not disappoint! Since I don't normally make my way to this side of town unless I'm working, I've been making a point to explore restaurants near work. I ordered the Birria Ramen online, and pickup was super easy. My order was ready promptly and ahead of schedule. The staff was friendly and even gave me a helpful tip: ordering over the phone is actually cheaper than ordering online. Definitely good to know for next time! I brought my ramen back to work and enjoyed it there. They also offered chips, which ended up being the perfect addition. I used them to scoop up the birria and consommé first, then went back to the ramen. The 16 oz serving was generous enough that I even had leftovers for lunch the next day. I'd definitely order the Birria Ramen again, but I'm also curious to try some of their other offerings next time. Another successful Eat the World LA recommendation!

    Tijuana tacos!!!!…read more Lately my biggest craving is charred asada tacos. Having fallen in love with charred tacos from Sonoratown, the hubs and I have been on a mission to hunt down all the charred tacos in the area. And boy, Poblano does not disappoint. Way Way deep into Compton but so delicious. The price point is less than Sonoratown and the amount of meat is stacked!!! The tortillas are made fresh. The asada has such a nice charcoal flavor. Cons: Salsa is super spicy, kindve suicidal. Tacos are wrapped in paper, I can see why people complain about having paper in their food. The two Compton locations are pretty close to each other, and though a bit more rugged, the Compton Ave location cooks outside in grills (which I think gives more flavor than the restaurant location on Rosecran).

    Someone once told me you can't go wrong with a taco spot that has "Poblano" in the name. After…read moretrying this place, I'd say it's decent, but not somewhere I'd drive out of my way to visit. The biggest draw here is the handmade tortillas, which are definitely a step above average. However, this was the first taco shop where I actually watched pieces of fat being added to the asada tacos, something I've seen other reviewers mention as well. The al pastor wasn't carved from a trompo; instead, it was served as chopped pieces of pork in sauce, which wasn't my preferred style. The birria was good, but nothing particularly memorable compared to other places I've tried. That said, the restaurant seems very popular with locals, and being open past 6 p.m. is a plus in an area where many restaurants close early. Prices are lower than what you'd typically find at a brick-and-mortar taqueria, which may reflect the local market. One thing to note is that there is no customer restroom, so it feels more geared toward takeout than dining in. Most of the customers I saw appeared to be picking up food to go. Overall, it's a solid neighborhood taco spot if you're already in the area, but not necessarily a destination-worthy stop.

    It's always taco time so I wanted to give this place a try. Decided to stick to corn tortillas…read moresince they make them on site (but still a fan of flour tortillas). Wound up ordering a birria quesadilla and 3 Al pastor tacos. All with corn tortillas but they charge you $2 extra for corn tortilla on the quesadilla but they didn't charge for the consume which was good. The corn tortilla for the quesadilla was a bit thick for my preference but I think that's the only way to keep all the meat inside and not break. I suggest getting the flour tortilla on quesadillas. But, the birria meat and consume were really good. And, you get a lot of meat in a quesadilla. It's big enough for 2 people. Al pastor was good too. Still need to try the carne asada. They charge 2% fee for credit cards so bring cash unless you ordered online. No parking except street parking which can suck around dinner time as they get busy. They also have few seats inside so you see people order ahead (online or phone) and double park to pick up. And, it's best if you speak some Spanish to communicate. Having said all this, perhaps a 3.5 is my rating.

    Very good TJ-style tacos, in my opinion! I went when there wasn't a rush or busy hours, so I was…read moreable to enjoy the experience without waiting too long. The food was fresh, flavorful, and the service was great. Definitely a spot I would come back to!
