They were busy and I still got my food within just a couple minutes. The Tacos al Pastor are top notch. Al Pastor is one of my favorites and this one is great....tender, juicy and super full of flavor. The Salsa Roja is nice and spicy but also very flavorful. I'll definitely be stopping by again for some truly authentic and amazing street food.

I've seen this place almost every night since it's around the corner, so we decided to stop. We had asada tacos and pastor tacos and washed them down with Mexican Coke. The tortilla was delicious and the meat was perfect. There are a few stools to sit on if one wants (we did) but this is mostly a to-go place. The food came quickly and we were home and in bed, full and happy, in no time. I recommend this place for delicious food with no hipster vibes. Sorry I didn't take a picture. I was too busy eating.

As soon as I checked out and ordered ny Uber I ordered the 3 taco combo plate. It arrived within 10-15 minutes: lots of meat, good portions of beans and rice and the red & green salsa were the bomb! Especially the red sauce....muy fuerte...had the back of my eyeballs itchin'. Perfect way to end a night of drinking! This place is a bew favorite of mine.

I thought the red salsa was incredible as well, really spicy but with good flavor. I wish I would have taken some more home with me. My girlfriend thought it was too spicy though, so be careful. To drink we ordered Abuela's Pink Drink, it was basically strawberry-orchata, which was delicious as well. For dessert we ordered the Aroz con Leche, the amount of sweetness in it was perfect, not exaggeratedly sweet and a perfect amount of cinnamon. I can't wait to return and try other items on their menu, I really want to try the Birria-Ramen, the tamales, tortas and burritos.

The food was delicious and the prices can't be beat. My personal favorite were the aguachiles, they were perfection! We also ordered two shrimp tacos and surf and turf burritos and neither disappointed. There seemed to be only one person working so kudos to the chef as the food came out fairly quick but you could taste the freshness. When we went it was empty but a few people had pick up orders. The restaurant looked clean and well maintained. I can't wait to come back as those aguachiles are still on my mind.

When I came in it was near closing time and there was no one sitting inside. I think they were closing up, but I had enough time to order something to go. I ended up ordering two fish tacos. It was neatly packaged and plenty of toppings, along with some salsa on the side. When I finally got around to eating the tacos, it was very tasty and there was a nice crisp to the Ensenada style tacos. I definitely cheer for places like this, and I tend to score a little higher only because I feel like there needs to be more places like this around. Not only that, but they have a pretty extensive menu, but I really just came here specifically for the fish tacos on this visit.

It's a good amount of food and it's usually enough to feed 2 people. The chips that come with it are freshly made and steaming hot and crispy. In the past I've also ordered their birria tacos and the burrito. They were fine but nothing special. It looks like they recently redid the menu and rebranded to be a bit more upscale, but as far as I can tell the menu is largely the same and food quality is as great as ever. Service is fine. It's too loud with the music indoors so I usually sit outside, but it can get cold outside in the winter. My rating is just for the food.

Food review will be in the pictures. We shared two large plates and one appetizer. Overall, really good. The service was great.

We gave him our history about how my wife and I met at work and how we used to work down street many years ago. So it was nice to come back to the area. The interior decor and mood was perfect.

I had been raving to my friends about the food and amazing service at the Manhattan Beach location, so I was excited for them to try it. We were initially told our best option was outside, despite it being nearly 100 degrees. When I asked to sit inside, the manager focused more on the obstacles than finding a solution. We were eventually offered two separate tables, which we accepted just so we could stay. Our server was slow and not particularly friendly, and the service overall was mediocre. The food was delicious, but unfortunately the experience and hospitality were nowhere near what I've experienced in Manhattan Beach. Very disappointing, especially after recommending it so highly.

We were eating there when another customer came in and was waiting for over 7 minutes with the employee not acknowledging her at all. She eventually just left. Another couple walked in, also waited 5 minutes until she came to assist from the back. While the customer was saying her order, the employee got a personal call while dealing with the food, answered and was preparing the food while on her phone call. I have a video snipped of this interaction. As we were finishing about to leave, another customer came in and was waiting for over 5 min. The entire restaurant can see and hear her on the phone. Something about another employee not coming in and it was just her and that she had done everything. When the customer tried to get her attention she motioned hold on with her hand. I completely understand it sucks when a co worker calls out. But that was a bit much. No wonder this place is always dead. No one would want to come back after this experience.

I got the steak picado, tinga de pollo, and cochinita pibil tacos. I wasn't asked what heat level I wanted for the cochinita pibil, so they gave me what tasted like a level 5 to me. It was so spicy that it basically burned my taste buds. Unfortunately, I ate that one first, so when I moved on to the steak picado and tinga de pollo, everything tasted spicy and I couldn't really enjoy the flavors of the other two tacos. I also tried their burrito, and I was honestly surprised by how tiny it was. I wasn't expecting a huge burrito, but this was much smaller than I imagined. Flavor-wise, it was also pretty underwhelming and not something I would order again. Overall, this location was a disappointment, especially because I normally really enjoy Guisados. I probably won't come back to the Pasadena location. Boyle Heights is so far from me, but I still feel like that's the one location that consistently does it right.
