I'm picky, but Ave 26 delivers every single time. It's super affordable, open 24/7, and there's always plenty of parking, which is a huge win in LA. Plus, it's honestly one of the best spots in town for people-watching while you eat. Let's talk favorites. My absolute must-order is their al pastor burrito with everything. It comes loaded with tons of smoking hot, perfectly seasoned al pastor meat, melted cheese, and incredible flavor. To top it off, they have a solid lineup of tasty salsas and spicy condiments to customize every bite just how you like it. Whether you're wrapping up a late night out or looking for the perfect spot to celebrate after a Dodgers game, Ave 26 has got you covered. Get out there after the win and grab a burrito -- you'll thank me later.

The lengua taco was super tender but lacked a bit of seasoning. Overall, Leo's tacos definitely tastes more flavorful than Ave 26 tacos. Service was excellent! There were a lot of people but we received our orders relatively quickly. There are some tables and seats next to the truck. Plenty of parking in the lot that it's located in. Would recommend!

Nonetheless, the pastor was still amazing and it's great that they add copious amounts of meat on there.

My friend also got a burrito and I heated it up the next day to enjoy and it still tasted awesome.

I do like how they grill their meat though and they use the tortillas to scoop up the meat on the grill. Thought the al pastor was a bit salty and the cheese did not add much flavor to it, but that's probably a good thing considering the saltiness of the meat. Also, make sure you ask them for pineapples since they did not include it until we asked. They do have them sliced up in a container by the meats. Ambience is very casual and it's a stand while eating type of situation. Service was quick.

The seasonings or the way they cook - the flavors and textures are better than a lot of other places I've had tacos from. I got two carne asada and two al pastor tacos. Total as of early 9/2025 was just $10 for four tacos! We came here on a weeknight a little before they were packing up for the night, so the vibe was chill. They also have a good spread of salsas and a DIY fresh toppings area. I just found this taco stand in East Hollywood because I was leaving a comedy show and it was on the later side. Most places were either closed or closing. Saw this place and it seemed perfect for a quick bite that wasn't a big strain on the wallet. Maybe there's more of a line on the weekends, but if not, this is the type of spot where I wouldn't be surprised if there's a constant line at some point.

TehranRo Grill

I've never been to TehranRo Grill, but it's become part of my family's delivery rotation, a…read moreparticular favorite of my father Steve C.'s. It's a great place to order for a crowd, say two senior citizens, their three adult children, and their partners and kids, or some combination thereof. I see the place offers catering, and that makes sense to me. Everything is delicious and easy to share. TehranRo is in Koreatown and is in fact named for a street in Seoul, a street named for Tehran, Iran (there is a corresponding Seoul Street in Tehran). The owner is a Persian guy with evident fondness for Koreans, or at least for my dad, who is a regular at the brick and mortar (my dad goes to like ten restaurants, and TehranRo is one of them). I hope to meet him sometime, as I keep hearing about this cross-cultural bromance. In the meantime, I have very much enjoyed the food at home. The hummus is great, as are the must o khiar and must o mouseir--homemade yogurt mixed with shredded cucumbers and mint (khiar) and shallot (mouseir). The shirazi salad is fresh and zippy, with cucumber, tomato, red onion, scallion, dried mint, and olive oil lime juice dressing. The grilled meats, of course, are the main attraction, and I'd really recommend any and all of the skewers, which you can get a la carte or in various combinations. I love the koobideh, both the beef and lamb and the chicken. Liberally seasoned, with a firm but yielding texture. If ground meat isn't your thing, both the beef and chicken shish kabob are excellent. The beef is marinated filet mignon, the chicken either marinated chicken breast tenderloin or boneless chicken thigh--I definitely prefer the thigh. You can get shishlik too, rack of lamb marinated with a spice blend. I'd also highly recommend the mahicheh, a stewy dish of lamb shank slow-cooked for several hours until it almost slips off the bone, served with white basmati rice topped with saffron. All of the entrées come with rice, naan, and charbroiled jalapeño and tomato. You can upgrade your rice for an extra charge, and I think this is worth doing, especially if you're putting in a bunch of orders. I'm partial to the albalo polo, or cherry rice, and also enjoy the baghali polo, a green rice laced with herbs. If you're craving Persian food near Koreatown, check out TehranRo for dine-in, takeout, or delivery. The food is high quality, and I kind of love the Korean connection.

Lamb chops were well done, which isn't my fav (prefer medium to medium rare) but had a nice char. Salad dressing that came with the salads was unique. The acidity was needed. Hummus was probably my favorite thing. Not sure if we would be back, but solid option in ktown if you do want variety.
