This place has great customer service as well as great food.. Asada or Chicken are my favorite meats but I'm sure everything they have taste good..Tacos or burritos, the Jamaica thirst quenching. Just fyi.... they are closed on Tuesday.. but next time you're in el monte give them a visit. You'll thank me later. read more

Fantastic food and service! The food was flavorful and the meat was juicy. The only downside is limited English. We requested chili sauce, but they fried a chili instead, lol. Experience was good nonetheless, and the owners even gave us a cup of free Horchata to try. Will definitely be revisiting! read more

Delicious food, getting your food might take a tad bit longer but it's well worth it!! Freshly cooked/chopped veggies

Tacos Del Chino is one of those local spots you keep coming back to--not just for the food, but for the accommodating service. I wish I knew his name, but there's a guy there (shorter height and clean haircut) who gives some of the best customer service I've experienced. Super friendly, accommodating, and genuinely wants to make sure you get exactly what you're craving. One thing to note--there's a menu, but no pictures or brochures, so you kind of have to know what you want or ask. Luckily, he's more than happy to walk you through options. Nachos - Exactly how I remember nachos should be. The chips are those pre-made round ones (like Tostitos Rounds), but still crunchy and satisfying. The meats taste freshly cooked, with a nice sprinkle of veggies. And the best part--they use that classic nacho cheese and sour cream combo. The kind of cheese you'd get at 7-Eleven or a Dodgers game. Not the healthiest, but sometimes I want what I want. Tacos - Simple and classic. You really can't go wrong here. I've tried different meats and they've all been solid. Wet Burritos - Great balance of rice, beans, meat, and veggies. I've had the chicken, carne asada, and al pastor--all delicious. It also comes with a side of lettuce and sliced avocado, which is a nice touch. Side Bar - Fresh radishes, pickled jalapeños, lime, and lemon. Everything tastes fresh and adds a lot to the meal. What really stands out is how flexible they are with orders. I asked for nacho cheese on the side so my chips wouldn't get soggy--no problem. Extra salsa? As much as you want. Not sure if you want red or green salsa on your wet burrito? Get both on the side. They make it easy to customize exactly how you like it. Overall, great food, but even better service. This is the kind of spot that I don't want to review so I can keep it for myself. read more

Decided to check out this place due to its high reviews. We found the owner or front person was very passionate about all the different styles of taco, burritos and nachos. We came in only desiring a snack, but then ending up ordering three meals due to all the choices that sounded so delicious. We really enjoyed their food, and they give you a great amount for the price. The ingredients were really good, and they give you lots of meat. I particularly loved the lengua and tripa (as they cooked it the way I liked it). The reason I give it one less star is the ambience. Its definitely a mom and pops restaurant and the lighting is very dim. Otherwise, the food was good and the prices are great! The owner is so awesome and provides good service too! read more

Fast service was greeted and guided through menu. Great food and pricing will be back in the future

Was excited to try the food here but was most disappointed with the horrible service. The person working might have been having a bad day but was so over the top rude for no apparent reason I was hesitant to even eat the food that was ordered to go. There were no other customers in the restaurant and the interior was outdated which is not an issue if the food is great....it was not. Based on the service and food I was disappointed and would not recommend since there are so many other great authentic options near by read more

Great food and amazing service. We will definitely be back! We got the asada and pastor tacos.

Have you ever: first, not been feeling hungry, then took a bite of food, and the food was so good that it made you so hungry that you ended up crushing the whole thing? Yeah, this place will do that to you. I'm partial to the carne asada, which has consistently been tender and well-seasoned. The quesadillas are my favorite here, followed by the burrito (get it with cheese!). The people here are very friendly and the prices are quite reasonable. Food comes out quick! Plus they have a little parking lot out back. I'll definitely stop by anytime I'm in the area. read more

Came in here late today and the guy at the counter was so nice and friendly and that I just had to write this review now. Ordered 6 tacos, a burrito, and nachos and the portion sizes were huge! He even hooked it up with a Jamaica tea on the house which was so nice! Small and cozy with few chairs and tables and very clean. Definitely marking this place to come back again! read more

The (crispy) Tripas Taco here is insane. The fact that they don't have a clear menu is travesty because this place is amazing and deserves all the business it can handle. Service is great and the seats inside a nice as well. Did I mention the crispy Tripas Tacos yet? I come back for it every 2-3 months and it never misses read more

Came here on a Wednesday because yelp had high recommendation. This place did meet expectation. Good fast service The alpastore is good but I recommend the asada nachos .Delicious 10/10 Tried the homemade horchata they have the big cup for 2$ can't beat and everywhere. read more

My favorite taco place :) best tacos in my opinion and the owner is very friendly...I highly recommend!

Was searching for tacos on Yelp and this place popped up. They're located on a corner with the parking behind the building. Once inside the man taking our order asked if it was our first time and gave us some great recommendations. The place is nice and quiet and gives a homey vibe. We got 2 quesadillas which were packed with flavor. 1 Al pastor quesadilla and 1 carne asada quesadilla, 1 cabeza Mulita, and 2 tripa tacos. They really pack each dish with meat and flavor. The tripa tacos were so crispy and had the perfect crunch. They also give u a small plastic bag for the sides like radish, limes and more. Don't be afraid to ask for more bags!! We also got both salsas which were the perfect amount of flavor and spice. Overall I would definitely recommend this place if you are looking for some great authentic Mexican food. The service was incredible! The food was amazing! And can't wait to come back! Tip: ask for the tripa to be extra crispy!!! read more

This place is a hidden gem. If you want a hole in the wall mom and pop place that makes good Mexican food then come here!! It seems to be a popular spot for people from the neighborhood. I went with an all meat carne asada burrito with onions, cilantro and avocado. Not only was it good, but the portion size was generous as well. The asada meat was flavorful and not dry or overly oily at all. I went a 2nd time recently and it was just as good. I recommend the red salsa to top off the burrito. The staff, Sal at the front counter was really accommodating and he had a really good attitude in providing great customer service. He's truly one of the nicest guys and he went out of his way to make sure that my burrito was tasty. Parking is in a small lot on the back. I always opt to park in the street for convenience. I'm going to stop by this spot whenever I can when I crave some good burritos. read more

Tacos Del Chino - 11 dollar wet burrito. What a deal - Tacos Near Me - El Monte, California

This place is a little place right in Durfee in El Monte. I was getting my car repaired at Pepe's muffler and asked if there was somewhere to eat locally, walking distance? I was told Tacos del Chino was walking distance so my brother and I strolled on over and we were so glad we did! The food is delicious! I had the mulitas (so yummy) and my bro had a pastor burrito (this thing was huge)! And all so most de-lish! They also had home made Jamaica drink. You know if they sell homemade Jamaica at a Mexican restaurant the food has got to be good and this one was! All in all I will definitely be coming back for Tacos Del Chino food! read more

Tacos Del Chino - Carne Asada Mulita - Yum!! - Tacos Near Me - El Monte, California

A friend recommended this place for the Tripa tacos and Pastor tacos. Pastor was good, I'd get the tacos again. The Tripas were very good and I would definitely go back for those alone. Especially liked that they came with a choice of regular or crispy. Crispy was very good. The Salsa's were a little bland for my taste but tastes do vary. Service was friendly and good but the ambiance could be a little more lively. Didn't have the carne asada but the two people who did remarked that it was "ok." But had too much fat and gristle. They would not return for Carne Asada. read more

Tacos Del Chino - al pastor,cabeza and tripa Tacos - Tacos Near Me - El Monte, California

Very good food. I tried the asada burrito and pastor and tripa tacos. Visited on a Sunday evening (about 10pm) and the food was delivered piping hot and delicious. Small lot but street parking available. I saw some reviewers complain about how long their order took. It seems like only a couple of folks working the kitchen. Be patient. Good food takes time and the service here is excellent. read more

Had these tacos after work once and they were great ! The asada and Al Pastor were great and a definite hit. The burrito was even better and the horchata was one of the best I've had from a restaurant or street vendor. Absolutely a place that is worth a try and will become a new go to for tacos and the like. I definitely recommend this place. That said I didn't dine in but took the food to go so I cant say anything about the dine in experience. I'd have pictures but the food was too good I didn't even think to take them after starting to eat. read more

Came to finally try these tacos after a soccer game. We had seen the reviews but never stopped. I can say the reviews are accurate. These tacos are good. Meat is soft and flavorful. We will definitely be back when we are back in this area. We had asada and al pastor tacos. read more

The asada tacos were the best I've had. I went back to order one more and he gave one on the house. Great service, great place, will be back

Love their non-fried nachos and great service! Mom and pop restaurant with enough seatings inside.

Cool little hidden gem. I like the burrito del asada and al pastor. The service is superb and quick.
