    Fish Taco, Shrimp Taco & Taco al Gobernador
    Louis P.

    The tacos(why would you not get the baja style tacos?) were ok, usually always solid. Theres a few of theeae spots around the hood, ive tried the one on Whittier BLvD. Food is a solid 4 stars, but the cashier has horrible service. I get it it is what it is, but damn girl u getting paid, fake it a little for customers sake lol Taco El Governador was decent, dont think they had that on the menu before. Had a back and forth with the cashier, she kept arguing the tap didint work and I had to insert. It was a charge to insert like bro thats kinda shady. Again it is what it is. Sticking to Tazo Nazo next time.

    Want some bomb fish tacos, but don't feel like driving south of the border? Tacos Ensenada gotcha. These are by far my favorite fish tacos in LA. The fish is savory, the breading is fluffy, the toppings are on point. What could make these bad boys even better? How bout getting them for Zero dot Ninety Nine are you out of your mind ($0.99 in English) Every Tuesday, you get to enjoy some delicious fish tacos for $0.99 all day long. So if you're in the area, happens to be a Tuesday and you got $5 in your pocket...this is the spot for you.

    The BOMB fish tacos.

    I've had the fish tacos at the location in Duarte 1,000 times and there used to be a line out the door. Stopped by this location because my cousin was visiting and she was craving fish tacos. We found out that they have another location. The fish tacos were on point! Perfectly battered. Not too much, not too little. The sauce and salsa combination that they put on top is just out of this world. Sooooo good. They really put thought into their dishes. It's not just doused with white sauce. There was white sauce, then a hot sauce, a Pico de Gallo and all of these with the cabbage and crispy fish were aaaaaamazing. We also tried the shrimp quesadilla and it was really good as well. The caramelized onions along with the shrimp and ooey gooey cheese was delicious. We bought 8 tacos, a shrimp quesadilla, and 2 drinks for ~$30. Totally worth every penny.

    Tuve que limpiar yo el camaron del coctel.

    Primera y ultima vez. El taco de pezcado estaba frio y la tortilla dura. No si fue recalentado. Los camarones del coctel tenian todos la vena sucia. No nos gusto la comida. Les comparto mi experiencia.

    Shrimp cocktail. Delicious but not looking too appetizing.

    The seafood is very good, the prices are okay but the service is lousey. Seat yourself! Even if you're eating there, get it yourself. No service. Wow! Place is empty and they still yell out for you to pick up. Also make sure they repeat your order. Oh boy!! (eyes rolling) Best when you pick up and take home.

    Fried fish tacos with everything.

    Taco Tuesdays and Thursdays for $1! I believe taco Tuesday are fish tacos and Thursday are: Al pastor, asada, chicken, and carnitas. They have a wide menu with very affordable prices! I love their Al pastor and the chicken burrito. They are very accommodating to diets and have a vegetarian burrito that can be made vegan. The ceviche is fresh and give you a lot so it is filling. This is a chain restaurant taking over East LA and Southeast LA so they have various locations. I believe the Cudahy one is the largest as they have both indoor and outdoor seating. Lots of free parking. Definitely would recommend to check it out.

    Delicious food. Cheap prices. GREAT HORCHATA. I got fish tacos and devoured them before getting a picture. My friend got the enchilada. Happily surprised how great it all was. This is a must try Mexican spot. Taco deals on Tuesday's and Thursday's! GO!!!

    Food is good i like the tacos. It's a super small location, placed gets packed with people. If you are COVID cautious you will avoid here. People do not care and pack inside. Also another reason it's so packed is because they have a major issue receiving orders. Be advised they will not make your order if you order online. The East LA location claims they never receive the order but only because they pay option is "pay at restaurant" They won't make your order until you pay so please don't waste your time with phone orders or the online system. They should either cancel online ordering or add a method of payment other than paying at the location. You will be stuck waiting an hour+ for food. Not worth it

    This taco stand that pops up only on the weekends is located on a small side street in Cudahy. They…read morespecialize in one thing only - roasted pig tacos. I've been wanting to go this spot for a while, and I finally got my chance when I was driving through the area. When I walked out to the stand, I was graded by some very friendly people and ordered a couple of tacos. One with the roasted pork meat and one pork belly. I wanted the tacos how they are meant to be served (no mods) and that is topped with minced cabbage and two mustard-based salsas. They also put a piece of crispy pork skin on the plate before handing it over. These tacos are so delicious and unique to other styles of tacos we have in LA. Because of the preparation, they eat a little cleaner and lighter than say Carnitas (I'm a big fan of both styles). The mustard salsa gives it a nice kick and zesty flavor. The pork skin, for me at least, is reminiscent to some really crispy lechon I recently had at a Filipino friend's house. Heck, the way the pork is served here is not unlike luaus or big Vietnamese special occasion celebrations I experienced growing up where a whole pig would be ordered. The mustard based salsa also reminds me of South Carolina style barbecue with their Carolina Gold barbecue sauce. Make no mistake, these tacos are very Mexican. Specifically in the style of Acaponeta, Nayarit (as stated on their sign - I'm not going to pretend I'm an expert). Parking was easy because I turned into a lot where it seems like it was an industrial business park. This place is kind of unique because when you turn onto the street it feels like you are approaching a street fair or small scale farmers market. If you wanted to, you could have a full on taco or food crawl along the street alone

    Saw this place on Instagram, so I decided to come down and try it out. I was curious about the…read moremustard based salsa/sauce. I pulled up and ordered my tacos. The owner? and chef were there manning the grill. They were incredibly friendly and very personable. I chatted with them the whole time they were getting my tacos ready. They let me know they had pork meat, and pork belly, and that they could do a mix. I went with 5 mixed tacos, 1 with "spicy" mustard salsa, and 4 with normal mustard salsa. How were they? Bomb! The mustard sauce was so unique. I've only had one other pork product with mustard based sauce (Payne's BBQ in Memphis, TN, my favorite BBQ sandwich in the WORLD) and its pretty rare to see. The tacos were fantastic! The pork was part chewy, part crispy, part gelatinous in some bites. All of it tasty! They also give you a hunk of crispy pork skin on top of the tacos, too. Really enjoyed my tacos! The spicy mustard sauce wasn't even that spicy. Both versions were delicious though and you can't go wrong with either one. Glad I stopped by and got to sample these great tacos. I will be back in the future!
