    I stopped by Taco Charly today to try their nachos since it was recommended by my friend for good nachos. I came in the morning because I saw on Street View that there limited parking in the plaza this place is in. I got a parking spot right in the front because it was not busy yet. I got the nachos with asada, the price is reasonable because the portion size you get. It didn't take them long to make and they give you red and green salsa for it. They put a good amount of asada in the nachos and cheese but I didn't get a lot of jalapenos, I only got 5 pieces. The nachos chip were fresh and not stale like other places I been to. I would recommend trying this place at least once. I didn't want guacamole, sour cream or onion in my nachos so those come on it.

    the tacos are good, tortillas nice and soft. the nachos and the carne asada fries are meant to be shared. Dude the plate is a little much for one person. I really like the salsa para los tacos duuude, nice! Also the staff are nice and sweet.

    " NACHOS " MORE LIKE CHESSE AND JALAPEÑOS
    Ana M.

    "NACHOS" MORE LIKE (CHEESE AND JALAPEÑOS) Wanted to give this place another chance ....BUT NO the food quality as gone really bad , i ask for nachos the just put beans and cheese ... really we'res the sevolla cilantro and i call them back to mention it the same lady that took my order didnt care she just said bye and hangup the phone! NEVER COMING BACK!! My family and I have been loyal customer since I was a child ... they just dont make food like they did before

    Tacos Charlie's is know for their nachos not their tacos.

    This is hands down the best loaded Nachos I have ever had. I grew up in this city and nothing comes close to these nachos. They come with your choice of meat, your choice of chips or fries. Beans, jalapeño, shredded mozzarella cheese, and hot steamy melted nacho cheese all on top. Tacos Charlie's is know for their nachos not their tacos. They also installed social distancing plastic glass and there's no more salsa bar but you can ask for salsa and they will give you the green salsa in a small sauce to go container. P.S it's CASH ONLY!

Usually I try the beans once and that's it. I'm pretty sure the tortillas were homemade. I loved that they were thick enough to hold everything but soft enough to eat. Salsa was a little too spicy for my liking. Everything was seasoned well. Everyone was very nice! But I definitely had to use my high school Spanish. Between my Spanglish and her English it was no problem. It's a very small hole in the wall. Cases of beer were stacked against the wall. There were only about 5-6 two top tables. Not good for a crowd but definitely great food. I think there was one unisex bathroom. I didn't go in. Looking at the pictures online I didn't know there was an outdoor patio. Looks nice in the pictures. I'm not sure about a parking lot. We parked on the street on Parthenia which was a little scary because drivers don't care about people getting out of the car.

    In a city where Mexican food is probably the primary dining option; one might think that it is all…read morethe same: that a taco here is the same as a taco there. This line of thinking is completely false as each region and state in Mexico has distinct flavors, cultural preparations and unique ingredients. Luckily in the City of Angels; we have access to all of these styles whereas everyone can pick and choose their favorite! I was in the North Hills/Mission Hills area and decided Mexican was going to be the meal of the day - and thanks to the trusty Yelp app: Tacos al Tijuanense was the winner to satisfy my hunger pang. If you are a longtime LA resident or born-and-raised within the city limits and can swear to Tacos al Tijuanense sounding familiar/remembering that it was a food truck... Then your memory doesn't deceive you. Tacos al Tijuanense birthed as a food truck in 1987 quickly gaining popularity for its smoked meats and Tijuana-inspired flavors serving tacos, vampiros, quesadillas, birria tacos, etc; loaded with fresh toppings and offering a variety of meats for the protein selection. The LA love for Tacos al Tijuanense caused such popularity that the food truck expanded into brick-and-mortar locations with several now spread throughout the city. The North Hills location of Tacos al Tijuanense holds real estate near the Woodly/Nordhoff intersection in a small strip plaza shopping center that seems half sleepy and half eyebrow-raising. But, as most of us know, the hidden gems are usual the best spots so don't be deterred by such businesses like the sketchy massage parlor next door. In fact, diners will be pleasantly surprised when crossing the threshold of the entrance to find an airy interior with high ceilings, natural light, wooden accents and the combination of a trendy- almost gastropub sticking to the food truck theme (there is even a food truck motif behind the order counter) that feels like a party. Tacos al Tijuanense is not what you would expect from the outside! Tacos al Tijuanense is fast-casual meaning you order behind the counter and take a number to the table of your choice. After browsing the menu, my boyfriend chose a Quesadilla (13" tortilla filled with protein of your choice, jack cheese, cilantro and salsa with my boyfriend picking chicken - $13) and a Vampiro (toasted corn tortilla layered with jack cheese, choice of meat, onions, cilantro and salsa with al pastor - $3). For my order, I also went with a Vampiro but with chicken while also ordering Nachos to share with carne asada. When our plates arrived, we were surprised to see the size of the portions. Everything at Tacos al Tijuanense is large and in charge and they most certainly do not skimp! The fillings are overflowing with bright, fresh ingredients, toppings are numerous and the size overall makes everything shareable. My Vampiro was crisp with delicious guacamole that added a refreshing element and tender, tasty chicken. My favorite was my boyfriend's Quesadilla which was gooey, warm and perfect. You can't go wrong with a quesadilla! But we have to talk about the nachos because these nachos are HUGE! This is party size and could generously feed three people. The carne asada was heavenly and the chips tasted homemade. The only slightly "meh" factor was that the cheese atop the nachos was canned cheese and we would have preferred melted shredded cheese. This wouldn't have been such an issue had the canned cheese been in a rational amount but it seemed like a Costco-sized can poured onto these chips! These nachos were hidden under cheese glop! Regardless, they were still delicious. Tacos al Tijuanense holds true to its almost 40-year-old fame with affordable prices, delicious food, large portions giving you a bang for your buck and a surprisingly inviting ambiance. Tacos al Tijuanense is definitely recommended and the North Hills location is much recommended despite its odd plaza placement.

She told me the order was not ready but did not give me any estimated wait time. While I continued waiting, two other Dashers came in after me, received a much warmer welcome, and were helped quickly while I was still standing there with no update. The same employee later called out the wrong customer name to me. When I corrected her and gave her the correct name again, she simply said the order still was not ready. By the time my order was finally handed to me, the delay had made me late with the delivery. Another employee also asked me to confirm the pickup before giving me the order, which is fine if that policy is applied consistently. However, I did not hear her ask either of the two previous Dashers to confirm their orders. The entire interaction made me feel like I was being treated differently from the other drivers. Employees should communicate respectfully, provide reasonable updates and apply the same pickup procedures to everyone. Now I have a contract violation from DoorDash and it's not fair because it's not my fault that this restaurant don't got their s*** together and made me late

And this lady seriously asks me, "what meat" and I repeat myself and she laughs in my face like I'm the one that sounds dumb for asking what is she taking about. She repeats herself and I say, "birria." Then she proceeds to ask me, "Do you want that with cheese or no cheese?" If I'm asking for quesabirrias, is it not obvious I want it with birria and cheese. But it's also the fact that she makes me out to be the idiot for being confused at her ridiculous questions. They then gave us the same number as the man before us and had to bring it to their attention, so they wouldn't give our food to him (he had a to-go). Thanks to the man that went to go say something. Then, my mom said that they charged us the same amount for both menudos when on the menu it shows up at different prices (we got 1 pata, 1 without). I brought it to their attention and I said, "That's okay, you could go ahead and bring me the pata, since you already charged me for it." She answered, "Well, you have to go pay the difference up front." I repeated myself, she viewed my receipt and said okay. She comes back 5 minutes later and she tells me, "They charged you for the pata, do you want your money back?" I said, "no, you could go ahead and bring it to me with the pata." Then she finally brings it out and tells me, "it's priced at the same amount whether you get pata or not." Whether or not, that was true, why was she trying to charge me the difference. They never brought my mom that said sangria, she never ordered. She went to go get a refund for that and they only gave her $4 with no added tax amount, so they didn't even process her refund as they were supposed to. To make matters worse, the food wasn't even good. I really tried to enjoy it, but the menudo was tough and quesabirrias lacked flavor. The restaurant was small, and we had to sit outside, which was okay, considering it wasn't too hot out. In conclusion, service was awful, rude, there was no coordination, food was not the best, and the it was small but very limited seating. I was so excited to come here, because an influencer said this place was so good. Last time I listen to someone on the internet. My fault, but I was just so disappointed.
