1st time at this Taco Spot in my way home , as you walk in they greet you. I decided to order a Burrito - with No Attoz , frijoles , No salsa with beans only ! Half Azada & Half Adobada salsa on the side to it would get Soggy !!! . I got it to go cause i was didn't want to be stuck in traffic continuing home . Got home decided to eat my burrito came with sides red salsa , cebollitas , cucumbers , pico de gallo , guacamole , lemons , oh and a roasted jalapeño pepper Exacellent the Asada meat was great , the adobada meat didn't tasted like adobada was not bad but wouldn't get it again. if i come back ???? [[HIGHLIGHT]]the bad part of this whole taco spot was that having only 2 customers in line me and this other guy and 2 other already sitting and eating and 4 taco crew members No one thought of sweeping the floor where they are preparing the food , a bit disappointing to see that... it's not like they were busy ??? they had more then enough time to Clean the Floors or sweep the floor so you won't see all the shit on the floor as you order ', you can't miss it .. it's right in front of you [[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Good service though .. the cebada water is really good . would i go back maybe soon, we will see if the floors are clean this time . over all food was great , salsa was also good . just little things that will defenetly make this place an awesome Taco Spot one Day !! i hope ....guac was also good read more

Super friendly and quick service. One of my favorite asada steak tacos in the area at the moment. Some might find the meat a tiny bit dry but it was still deliciousThe adobada meat was flavorful and delicious as well. 3 or 4 tacos will get you really full. They use small diced cabbage here instead of onions and cilantro which I actually liked. Really enjoyed the smokiness of the black and red salsa. read more

Been on my "to try" list. Went around 1pm and only a few other people were inside. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There is plenty of seating options.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff were friendly and attentive. Our quesadilla and taco came out quick. Everything tasted fresh and we will be back to try more of their items. read more

Won't bash on this tacos because they are good ! However they are not worth that price. Yes they are good tacos but not 4$ good if you get my drift, way to expensive, so I will say once in a while type of tacos read more

We got our food delivered and it was still hot and vampiros were super crunchy! Score ! Good customer service! We will be back! read more

If you're in the mood for tacos, this spot definitely delivers. The tacos are flavorful, freshly made, and generously filled. The meat was well seasoned, tortillas warm, and topping including salsa were very flavorful. Service was friendly and efficient even during busy rush and [[HIGHLIGHT]]spit had a casual and welcoming vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Prices are reasonable for the quality and portion size. Whether you're stopping for a quick bite or bring friends along, this is definitely a solid taco spot I'd happily rerun to. Highly recommend!! read more

I was in the area and never noticed this taco shop before so myself and the family decided to give them a try. For starters, the service was great. We were greeted upon arrival and the gentleman that took our order was also very friendly. We ordered tacos and a quesadilla on a flour tortilla. The cashier offered to pack all of our salsas and additional items since we were taking the food to-go. The distance from the taco shop to home is around 5min so the food was still nice and hot when we were ready to enjoy it. I liked how the taco meat was not super greasy (we had asada, al pastor, and one tripas taco). My only downside, if I had to pick something, were the salsas. The salsas speak volumes to me from taco shops. The meat was good but nothing special so I think some amazing salsa could have easily put this first experience higher for me. The salsas were bad but to me, lacked complexity and some flavor. I'd definitely go back when I want an overall good taco but maybe not my first choice. It's worth a try if you are passing by read more

I had this place way back when they had just the food truck in Long Beach and I remember that they were so delicious At the restaurant it change already, food it's just ok, I would go back again to see if it was just an off day They don't have any spicy salsas anymore that made me sad, and also no tripas read more

If you have a chance to go . Please try the Torino taco. It's packed with flavor. That was my favorite item from the menu. There tacos are good also. But the Torino is a hit. It's a giant taco and quesadilla combo. If you are fan of meaty and cheesy this is for you. read more

Food is so good! Vampiros are so good! The carne asada is amazing! Food is served fast. Staff is very efficient.

Tacos La Carreta makes great Sinaloan tacos with smoky carne asada. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The location has cool food truck design elements as a nod to their roots.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They were out of pellizcada this time, so I'll have to return to try the thick masa. Chorreada: The corn tortilla is large and crunchy. Structurally, it's sturdier than you think and holds up well under all the meat. You pick up the flat tortilla and take crispy meaty bites. The mesquite grilled asada is solid - with chopped sirloin steak full of great beefy and smoky flavors. The onions and cabbage have a super fine dice, which really absorbs the flavors well. Vampiro: The vampiro is similar to the chorreada, except for the thick and savory cheese melted on the tortilla. Bonus: Grilled onions and a grilled chili pepper are soft and sweet. The avocado salsa is great with the steak and adds a nice and creamy touch. Agua Fresca de Cebada: The drink has a creamy, nutty, cinnamon flavor like horchata. This barley beverage is also really sweet. read more

Been with these tacos since they were in a tire shop more than 10 years ago and it is impressive to see how far this place has come, not only that, but also with the quality and true flavors of the Sinaloa Style tacos. My favorite now is the pellizcada which for some could be the whole meal. I order way too much always because I cannot get enough! Adobada flavor is amazing! All the salsas and guacamole are always so fresh and taste just like a taqueria in Sinaloa. This place definitely deserves the hype and compliment for putting true Mexican quality out there! Service is the least thing to worry about at a taqueria, this is not a sit-down, relax! Always packed which is always a great sign, don't mind the wait! read more

Frequent customer here! Look no further if you want to experience Sinaloa style street tacos! Just like the Mercadito in Culiacán. The meat is always tender, juicy, and so flavorful! The adobada and asada are the best! You can't miss the agua de cebada which is my ultimate favorite! It's a barley agua fresca[[HIGHLIGHT]]. Place is always busy and not best for big groups as it gets very busy -- specially Friday through Sunday night[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]s. Service is always fast and friendly.

I've been to their original location or truck in the bordering area of Long Beach before. This is my first visit to their new brick and mortar spot. I loved their food so I knew I was in for a treat. But it's also nice to have the atmosphere or vibe of coming into a lively taqueria such as this place. Not only is their service very friendly and they operate very efficiently here, I am happy to report. The food is just as great as the original location. They also have a DIY salsa and toppings bar here. I ordered the chorteada de mixta (asada y adobada) and the pellizcada de adobada. Both items were just so delicious and a great mix of flavors and textures. Both of the items were just so well presented as well and they certainly didn't skimp on the toppings. I mean the food here is really such a treat. The parking is really easy as well because the lot of the strip mall is pretty large read more

Love this place! Really enjoy the homemade flour tortillas. Meats are super tasty and fresh. Salsas are great. Love that the staff is always friendly and genuinely look like they are have a good time back there. Highly recommend and will be back many times. read more

I think this place is just okay. I've had better tacos but I've also have had worse. I believe tacos need to be accompanied by a great salsa which I feel they lack. Service has been great though. read more

Amazing Food , amazing staff. Everything was made to order and still quick. Salsas were great and they have cucumbers which is always a pleasant surprise. Alondra at the front counter is non-stop working and still able to perfectly take your order down during lunch hour. Everything was delicious, definitely coming back read more

Man, these tacos are awesome 10/10 all around from the quality of the meat, tortillas, and my favorite the salsa! so simple but so dam good! Highly recommend and the customer service here was everything you would want! Been here 3 times in 1 week thats how much of a fan I am!!! read more

One thing about living in the Whittier area is that it can be a real struggle to find a truly great taco spot. I decided to try this location after my brother recommended it, and I'm glad I did. On a separate visit, I tried their asada tacos, which were solid. The asada was tender with a decent flavor. Nothing too special, Now the real star of the show in my opinion is their adobada tacos. These tacos absolutely hit the spot. The meat was tender, flavorful, and very satisfying with each bite. I also tried it as their quesadilla and it was just as delicious. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The only downside is that the spot is small and feels a bit cramped, especially around the entryway, So I recommend showing up early before the crowd builds.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

The meat had no flavor, I have never been so sad when eating tacos. This place was just disappointing. Of course they used cheap meat and you have to chew forever through the gristle and fat. Of course the service was terrible. read more

Was looking for some good Mexican food in Whittier and was honestly pretty disappointed.. I got an asada burrito and my bf got the Adobada Burrito and they were both lacking so much flavor and salt. The rice beans and meat in the burrito were so flavorless that they all tasted the same.. the Adobada was greasy and flavorless as well... even the salsas/avocado salsa was flavorless. The burrito needed tons of limon salsa and avocado to make it taste better.. I'd skip this place tbh read more

I came here with high expectations, as there are not many restaurants Mazatlán style. The cashier was nice but did not upsell me anything, also while she taking my order and handling cash she was writing on top of the aluminum foil where another person was wrapping some food, not a healthy approach. Restrooms were dirty from the walls. The whole restaurant needs some attention asap, is just dirty. The food was not great either, carne asada lack of flavor, two stars for my drink a Tonicol. Overall im not coming back or will not recommend this place. read more

Really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Highly recommend a carne asada burrito or tacos if it's your first time. Definitely gotta get the horchata. read more

I don't know what went wrong here, the tacos here look very deelish, I ordered 1 one of each to try them all but not one wowed me and that made me feel kinda sad. Tacos are my favorite thing to eat and I really wanted this taco to be a favorite they just lacked flavor for me and their salsas did not help since none were very good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The quality of food, service and location all were great.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The only thing I can think of is since Mexico has so many different regions and styles of tacos maybe this region's flavor just doesn't do it for me? I really hope not. read more

Meats seem to lack flavor. This is like my 3rd time here. Today I ordered two tacos (asada and adobada). Both were pretty bland. When I got my tacos, they didn't put any salsa in there and only 1 quarter of a lime. The salsa bar did have containers, but no lids. Luckily I checked my bag before leaving and had to ask for salsa. The next strike is that they put the salsa in a bolsita which is just ridiculous in 2025. Overall, the hype is NOT real. They're good/ok tacos, but not sure how they won LA Times awards. read more

Tacos La Carreta - 2 bland tacos with 1 tiny piece of lime and no salsa on the side. Asada and adobada were the meats I got. Three stars since they're average. - Tacos Near Me - Whittier, California

The light aroma attracted me to come try this Taco place while I was nearby at another shop. A small restaurant that seemed to be kept well cleaned at first . The tables stay dirty for a good amount of time after someone gets up and leaves ( seems everyone has to clean their own table) . I tried ordering a burrito with no beans and rice, but they said THEY HAD TO sell it like that. So, I thought then I'll just have them put it on the side, but that was a no as well. Went with the asada torta and a vampiro Taco instead. The price is ok for the quality of meat. For me personally, the carne asada lacked flavor and it was not soft when chewing. The salsas were good, but not sure if the guacamole is made from instant powder or freshly made in house. This Taco place has its simplicity , but I didn't think the food matched their prices on the menu. Overall, I wouldn't be in a hurry to come try this place again, but if it's the only thing opened late at night, I might. read more

So i waited to review this place when i actually came in to eat here vs ordering a torta to go last time.. FYI, dont order any bread products with hot meats to go.. They dont travel well. So this time i went during the lunch hour. The place itself is small, so the line was out the door. I ordered two flour tortilla tacos (tripa, adobada) and a jamaica to drink. Wife ordered a loaded baked potato with asada. Tacos were good. The tripa was better than the adobada as i think that one lacked flavor. There a good size for $4.75 each. I didnt try the baked potato but wife said she wouldnt order it again. Was missing sour cream which they dont have. Also price for one was $14. All in all, im glad theres a decent taco place nearby with a letter grade on there door vs a street taco cart/tent.. read more
