    Two taco plate - cactus taco and chicken taco
    Audra N.

    Try it! Affordable. Simple menu making choices easier. Quick service. Fresh. The drinks are yummy. The meat is super moist and tastes good. The tortillas are the perfect mix of softness, moist and flavor. I don't recommend the cactus but that's just me. We had the chicken and carne asada tacos. Scarfed them down. Rice and whole pinto beans are good. Will be back. Try the fruit juices too. Really good! We sat outside. Good vibes.

    I've been coming here for 2 years, since first opening. It's a good place to get my macros, after the gym. Service is friendly and attentive. Jose and Emily are two standout servers. Their meats were already tasty before. Recently they introduced "chili oil" as a condiment--similar to what you'd find at a Chinese restaurant. That one condiment is crack, and has taken the food from 10 to a 11! Well done, Tacomasa!

    Taco Trio
    Chance A.

    We came here after a bad experience at Calo Kitchen, and man, I'm so happy we ended up here. First off, the food is fantastic. We tried almost one of every type of taco and the meat was so tender and flavorful. The service was also fantastic. Sana brought us our food and was very kind. She also cleared our table when she noticed we were done eating. This isn't a full sit down restaurant yet the service was better than other restaurants. Keep up the great food and service! Thanks for turning our bad experience at another restaurant to a great one here at Tacomasa!

    Combo Trio: carne asada, tripe and adobada!
    Brandon C.

    Ordered their combo trio, I had the carne asada, tripe and adobada. Each one had a unique taste, the star of it all was the hand made tortilla and the sauces that blended each meat together. Although it was pricey at roughly $20 for three tacos with the fixings, you come for the unique flavor unlike other taco stands or restaurants. The meats are flavorful and juicy, had not had a juicy asada in quite some time! An adobada without the need for pineapple juice? We did go a bit before the lunch rush, the only gripe I had was the wait for the food, wish they could make them faster, but quality takes time. You are able to see how everything is made, like Din Tai Fung (clear window, workers making the dough, etc). It has a clean vibe inside, like an 80's diner. Would go again, but it will not be often since they are pricey. It is worth a try if you feeling fancy.

    Tacomasa is definitely worth the drive! I come all the way from the San Fernando Valley just for their vampiros and agua fresca Everything hits the spot, and the fact that I keep coming back says it all. If you're in the area and haven't tried them yet, this is your sign! Definitely one of my go-to spots whenever I'm craving good tacos and a refreshing agua fresca

    Came back with the whole fam and everyone really enjoyed it! The service was good and fast. We were 6 people so we sat outside and enjoyed the fresh air. We got 7 tacos, 1burrito, 3 mulitas, and Asada Fries! We also got 3 drinks. We all really enjoyed it!

    Deluxe Trio con todo - tripa extra crispy, adobada and lengua
    Eddie D.

    Tried Tacomasa and ordered the Deluxe Trio con todo -- extra crispy tripa, lengua, and adobada. The standout for me was definitely the tripa. Super crispy with great texture and flavor without being overly greasy. The lengua was tender, and the adobada had a nice flavor too. Overall, the tacos were solid and satisfying, and the aguas frescas are amazing. Came back again and got the Deluxe Trio one more time -- had the tripas again and also tried the asada. Tripas is still my favorite, but the asada was pretty good too.

    Now I remember why I'm not so crazy about the Mexican food in the Bay Area -- it's because of places like this. What might seem like regular tacos around here would absolutely blow the mind of someone from San Francisco, I guess it's like eating pizza in NY. The tacos were delicious and came with all the right accoutrements. I'd definitely love to return, but there are just too many great food spots left to explore. BB

    Vampiro with lengua and a sandia agua fresca
    Kelly K.

    Tacomasa is a vibe. Although it is located in a strip mall in El Segundo, upon entering I just knew this was going to be good! From start to finish the experience at Tacomasa was positive. The cashier was helpful, friendly, and efficient. We ordered an Al pastor burrito, a vampiro with lengua, and agua fresca. Food-wise Tacomasa is good for a strip mall eatery. While I didn't try the Al pastor burrito (4/5) my cousin gobbled it up and kept saying the pork is so tasty! So I think it must've been pretty tasty. I had the vampiro with lengua (3/5) and it was well made but needed some seasoning. I did pour on both salsas which elevated it a lot. It was yummy but I wish I ordered a taco. The agua fresca station was an awesome touch in my opinion. I loved it! And the agua fresca was spot on. Though I wish they refilled it more often because certain ones ran very low. The interior is modern taco shop. I wish they cleaned the tables more often because ours needed a good wipe down. The huge free parking lot was great too. Would I return? Yes! It's close to LAX and a great option for an after flight meal. LOCATION: 5/5 FOOD: 4/5 SERVICE:5/5 VALUE:5/5 AMBIANCE:4/5 PET FRIENDLY:outside tables CLEANLINESS: 3/5 PARKING:5/5

    I finally got to try Tacomasa! I've seen videos and read great things about their Tijuana-style tacos. It's super easy to order, whether you go online or at the counter. I went with the carne asada burrito and had to try the pastor taco. The "con todo" taco has onion, cilantro, guacamole, and salsa. The burrito was good, but I think they could have packed it in a bit more since there was a lot of tortilla in the folds. They have lots of drinks, like Pepsi and agua fresca. You can stand and eat or there are a lot of spots outside. I thought the food would be here quicker since it wasn't too busy. Tacomasa also does catering, which is great for businesses in the area.

    Adobada and lengua tacos
    Michelle H.

    Nothing out of the ordinary for tacos. The place was very clean and they have standing tables and tables to eat at. Food was made fast and great service. The tacos didnt have that much toppings. Very sparse with the cilantro and onions. Flavor wise, it was okay, it is not worth the price you are paying.

    Asada fries
    Jessica M.

    The service is 10/10. You are immediately welcomed with a large cheerful greeting from staff. I think the cashier was ricky and he seemed really nice and helpful especially to the person in front of us who had addition questions. I will say that i considered the portions to be generous. The pollo asado was juicy as well as the carne asada. The asada fries came with skinny fries but got cold as the cheese couldn't melt on the order. And it came with a salsa on it that I didnt enjoy. Other than the salsa i would say the fries were alright. However my favorite item in the establishment was actually the agua fresca. They gave a variety of delicious flavors. My favorites being watermelon and the cucumber pineaplme aguas. The quality of the carne asada was great quality but i felt that it was a bit bland. I felt the same about the salsas. None had a true kick and i hated wasting them. Just my personal opinion but i was disappointed they didn't have anything spicier that came with the food.

    This is a fairly new, upscale-ish taqueria in the area. We had the tacos combo and a burrito adobada. The food was delicious with fresh tasting ingredients. The place was well lit and clean and the people were friendly. There was a neat drink stand for people dining in. Overall - I liked it.

    I'm fighting between a 4 and a 5 star for this spot. I ordered a burrito. Food came it quick. I…read moredidn't know it came with chips and that's was a nice touch the size of the burrito is plentiful. It hit the spot. It came with red and green sauce as well, a roasted pepper, and a side of dip. So good. Everything was great except the meat could have been fresh. It tasted like it had been sitting there for a while. But the burrito wrap was perfect, the flavor of everything else inside was great. Oh and, no bathrooms here.

    We usually come here for birria tacos and after today we will stick just to that…read more This location does not advertise they have breakfast burritos but they do serve them all day. I got the bacon breakfast burrito and I did not like it. First off, the tortilla was yellow, not the regular white flour, and it did have a taste. Second, the bacon was not well done. I like to bite into the burrito and it be crispy bc of the bacon, and I usually never have to ask anywhere else for this. The eggs and cheese were okay. I just had really bad heartburn afterwards. Not coming here again for breakfast burritos, I don't recommend them. Service is always great. It was an early Sunday morning and they do get a lot of foot traffic since they are right there on the pier. The spot is very small to order. If we are dining in, I usually prefer either of the PCH locations.

I never really liked poke so I don't usually order it but I would definitely come here regularly if I was a local. I got the garlic shrimp and crunchy garlic poke, and highly recommend both. Honestly I was tempted to get a bowl to go for home later. Prices were more than fair, as a regular bowl (which included two entrees, a side, and a soda) only cost $17 after tax. Service was really friendly and helpful, and they offer samples for you to try before buying. The interior is spacious and cozy + bathrooms are spacious and very clean as well.

It's become my go-to neighborhood poke spot when I want something good without having to drive too far. I've tried the spicy ahi, which is pretty good, but surprisingly the ponzu salmon has become one of my favorites. I also really enjoy the creamy crunchy garlic poke. I usually get my bowl with white rice and a side of seaweed salad, and it hits every time. Their Spam musubi is also really good if you want a little snack on the side. The gentleman who is usually there (I believe he may be the owner, but I'm not sure) is always so nice and welcoming, not just to me but to everyone who comes in. Great customer service every time. There's seating both inside and outside, and overall it's just an easy, solid neighborhood spot. Grab a poke bowl, add a Spam musubi, and you're good to go. Another neighborhood gem!

So like yesterday, I decided to stop by and grab a burrito, but unfortunately, this will be the last time. I usually visit this location with my dad. He's been coming to this location since before I was born and I'm damn near 40. But this time I came alone and the place was packed. They don't have a big seating area. It's like a bar with about four seats to the right and four seat seats to the left so it doesn't accommodate many people, so people order to go. And that was my plan. I walk in and the server (with his chef at and money taped to it) and I grab the same menu. He allows me to have it, and he grabs another and gives it to one of the customers. I say all this to say that he definitely knows exactly when I arrived. However, A white man walks up less than a minute later and for some reason he decides to ask him if he ready to order, as if I'm invisible. This was the second time that this happened to me today and God knows how many times has happened to me in life. So at some point, I just have to stop ignoring the fact that Black people aren't welcome in certain spaces. Maybe we are by law, but not at all met with respect! That is all!
