Shrimp taco and asada
Fernando G.

The tacos have great flavor. The service was quick and kind. The ambiance is great! A little hidden gem!

Tacos

This spot is a hidden gem. A bit hard to find. My Uber dropped me off in an alley. Note, you have to enter Gingerbread (Alley) from the beach side. It's a little side street courtyard with a collection of small businesses. Look for the pink surfboard! Tacos are on the pricey side, but they're well made. I tried a shrimp (spicy thai chilli sauce), Mahi Mahi (garlic butter white wine,) and rosemary potatoes. The tacos come with cheese and coleslaw. They give you a ticket and call you on a microphone when your order is up. There are a couple of picnic tables outside, but I took my food to go eat on the beach. You can tell the tortillas are really fresh. All the flavors went together really well. As a pescatarian, I loved the variety of options that were available to me. A little more bougie than some of the old school style mexican places around the city, but this was definitely my style. Check it out! Fresh, fun tacos in funky Venice Beach. Grab yourself a loaded tortilla or two and take a stroll down the boardwalk.

A hidden jewle. Look and you will find. I ordered the Filet Mignon and the Mahi Mahi taco They were both really good! I was thrown off my the coleslaw but it taste yummy. I loved the beef the most. Their hot sauce adds even more flavor. Both tacos came up to $20 so it's a but much but the quality was worth it

Pork belly was really good! It was very flavorful. The mahi mahi was a bit more bland, but it was still pretty good. The food took a little bit longer than expected, but it wasnt too bad of a wait. The vibe is nice, right next to the beach and theres tables to sit with umbrellas

The Surf and Turf Combo with filet mignon and pork belly
Kaila P.

Super friendly and the tacos and Watermelon juice were delicious! I ordered a combo plate with the filet mignon and pork belly tacos, and after learning that the green juice was in a bottle and not fresh (it's still cold pressed so ) I switched it out for the watermelon lemon juice which was exactly what I needed for my walk from the Santa Monica Pier to Marina Del Rey. The mignon was my favorite though both were yummy. Personally I needed a little more salt on the pork belly to bring out the sweetness and savory-ness, but still refreshing. I'd totally return again to try some of their seafood options. Oh and they also let me charge my phone which was at 1% when I arrived!

Beautiful Outdoor courtyard dining area facing the beach

Absolutely delicious!! The owner is there preparing nothing but perfectly scrumptious gourmet tacos. If you're on Venice boardwalk and want a perfect 10 of a taco, you've found the spot. The spot also is on the property of Charlie Chaplin's old Venice home which is super cool. Service, food, ambiance...truly perfect! Thanks so much Surf N Turf! I'll see you again soon.

We stopped here for lunch and it was AMAZING. They where out of shrimp, so we had the filet and mahi tacos. It came with cotija cheese and Eilote topping. The flour tortillas where hand made, soft and delicious! The chef and his assistant where super friendly and helpful when deciding what to get. Great vegetarian options as well! We will definitely be back to try more. Don't forget to ask for hot sauce!

It so small and spicy. My kids wasn't happy

Avenue 26 has a cult following, and I'm happy to announce I am part of the cult now. I really…read moreappreciate that they're open 24/7 every day, so I can visit any hour I'm craving tacos in LA. 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!

First time for parking lot tacos for me!…read more I was feeling a bit peckish but didn't want to eat too much, so Yelpers, thank you for leading me here! 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

For for first timers, I'd recommend ordering the Villa's Trio which is what I got. Those come with the Ranchera Asada quesotaco as well as the Papas con Chorizo and Black Bean con Pollo quesotacos which are a trio exclusive. All the tacos were meaty, flavorful, and crispy. You honestly don't even need the side sauces since the tacos are already flavorful on their own. Great quality. I also got the Watermelon Agua Fresca which was refreshing, tasty, and sweet. Goes well with the tacos. I also got the Jamaica Agua Fresca, but that one was a bit too tart for my liking. The line can get long, so I would prepare to wait for up to an hour on weekends. There's ample free parking at the grocery store lot nearby. For seating and tables, it's limited and competitive. You just have to get lucky if a spot clears up as soon as you get your food. I also like how the restaurant handles crowd control. They allow a couple of people at a time to go inside, order, and get their condiments. You wait outside until they call you for your food. I like that it didn't feel crowded while I was getting my condiments. I highly recommend this spot and I will definitely be coming back.

I delayed writing this review to really think through, and now I will confidently say--these are…read moreeasily the best tacos I've ever had. Having been to so many taco stands, I think what makes Tire Shop Taqueria really stand out are the right-off-the-grill charcoal-grilled meats, the freshly made tortillas literally in front of you as you are waiting on line, and the free guacamole that comes with each taco. The ordering process is like any other taco stand, though one difference is here the salsas/guacamole are all handled by the staff. If you'd like more of something, just ask them instead of reaching for the ladle yourself. There is a separate area though for grilled onions/peppers and radishes you can serve yourself. I got the asada, chorizo, cabeza, and al pastor, and they were all so good. The asada and chorizo are specifically grilled over charcoal, and that flavor really shines through. I loved how meaty and tender the cabeza was too, and the classic al pastor hit the spot. They have large communal tables setup, so it is a great friendly vibe to enjoy your meal I will say, the surrounding area is not the best in LA, especially given how the taco stand is only open at night. The parking lot is quite small, so I parked on a side street that had some abandoned cars, but of course, if you are in/from LA, this is not that new for us. I would hesitate if I am a tourist though to make it out here. Anyhow, the food really is worth it here, and I can't wait to be back!

My husband said these are the best tacos he had in the states. Period. The flame grilled meats make…read moresuch a big difference in the flavor and the hand made corn tortillas are a must and take a great spot to an amazing spot. We only got the carne asada and the al pastor but it was so good we went back in line for seconds. The meat was very flavorful - the carne asada was thin but still very tender. The al pastor, I think uses a fattier cut than some other places but keeps it from drying out. The tacos were leaking meat juices still. The surrounding streets are quite dark at night but the parking lot the stand is in, is well lit and there is a covered seating area. We went on Thanksgiving weekend and there were maybe always 15-20 ppl in line at any given time. I imagine there are longer lines in the summer.

Came here late one night driving back from an event since I've only heard good things…read more I got 2 tacos (asada and cabeza, 1 pollo quesadilla, a bean and cheese burrito and small bag of chips and guac. Everything came out to about $26 which is super reasonable! Service on a later end of the night was great! Super friendly and quick service. No indoor dining was available since they were closing in 15 mins. Food was ready in less than 10 mins. Salsa is free which both were delicious and had great flavor. Overall the food was delicious! It hit the spot. Filled with meat and the tortillas were a hit on their own. I would definitely go back again and try the other items that they had to offer.

We ordered just a couple tacos - one asada and one tripa, based on reading numerous recommendations that those are what to get here. $3.50 a taco which is not bad for a restaurant taco. It's a cool casual vibe here. Seating inside as well as the patio. They have tasty looking horchata and other agua frescas. Colorful walls. They bring your food out to you by calling your name. The tacos were loaded with a pretty decent amount of meat and toppings. But sadly we were far from impressed by the flavor. The asada was okay and better than the tripa, but it paled in comparison to our go-to taco trucks in the area which only costs $1. And the tripa was strange to eat in taco form. The tripa is crunchy small pieces so it just feels odd to eat in a taco. Maybe if it was just served as an appetizer to eat by itself, but even then, it kinda just feels like you're eating pellets. Don't see the hype unfortunately.
