    Honest Review S.

    We came here literally right after eating at a spot down the street after seeing how long the line was. Had to see what the hype was all about. And WOW so glad we checked it out!! The tacos were awesome, line moved quickly, and lots of sides/salsas to add to the tacos. They have a great system working. They do close early so make sure to check their working hours. Try this place!!

    Great place for a quick stop before closing the border. Service is friendly and efficient. Right now, due to COVID, there's only take out available. The place sells-out early, so don't arrive late.

    I've been coming to this place for SOOO LONG! I think it's been open since 2007 or 2008 and those are my go to Tacos al Vapor! my favorites are the Chicharron and the Potato ones, love them I always get 4 or 5 tacos lol their so soft and I like them greasy, it's perfection. If you ever around this area you should visit, if your from out of town put it in your bucket list cause you need to try them out. Only thing is because Tacos al Vapor are usually like a breakfast/brunch type a thing they run out of tacos very early, so I suggest for you to be there around 10 am to 12 pm because they run out of them quickly during the weekday. On the weekends they only open on Saturdays but you have to be early there because they run out of tacos around 10 or 11 am! Their so damn good y'all! Go ahead and get your life! lol Provecho!!!!

    I've been to the spot off H street which pretty much has no parking and spots for four cars…read more Ample parking here plus the same awesome food from the other location makes this one of the best spots I've been to since I've moved here. I'm not a big fan and of Tacos El Gordo and am partial to the myriad of Mexican spots in Los Angeles, but this place holds its own. There was so much guacamole and meat on the two tacos that they fell out of the sides, and I had to use a fork to pick up the rest. This is a top option for me now. It's nice and clean here. Minus one star since service here is meh. The folks at H street seem to care at least little bit, but that may be because I ordered in Spanish. All in all, dope spot.

    Came here on a Friday night, and it was surprisingly quiet since I heard good things about this…read moreplace. I got 4 tacos and a carne asada quesadilla. The tacos were alright, but the quesadilla was pretty disappointing. The tortilla was soggy, and they put pico de gallo inside it instead of on the side with sour cream. There was also no cheese at all, which made it taste really off. Definitely not what I expected from a quesadilla. It was only 6pm and their sauce bar was dirty. Tables weren't clean and lastly the service wasn't very friendly. Just a tip -- a larger, updated menu screen would make it easier for everyone to read, especially older customers.
