best flautas ahogadas ever! the taquitos are massive, they give you a little side salad and consome too. i like to add lime and salt to my consome then add some to the salad. it's so good. i tried their tacos the last time as well and they're ok. not something i would come back for. i'll update my review once i go back and try more items read more

I'm beyond frustrated with my experience ordering online here. I placed my order and was told it would be ready in 30 minutes. When I arrived, the gentleman at the front told me it would be another 7 minutes -- fine, no problem. I waited another 10 minutes, only for him to finally ask what I ordered and then tell me they only had beef available. At that point I was annoyed because why wasn't that communicated when I first walked in? Either the online ordering system isn't accurate or the staff doesn't know how to use it properly. What really made it worse was that from the time I placed my order to actually receiving my food, it took an entire hour. Meanwhile, I watched multiple people walk in, order in person, and get their food within 10 minutes. Offering me an agua fresca doesn't make up for wasting that much of someone's time. Communication and organization need serious improvement. read more

Saw this place on Instagram... Instantly intrigued... Bit of a drive for me, but oh my goodness , The Flautas Ahogadas were worth it. A truly magical dish. Every element of this lavishly sauced delicacy is perfection! The tortilla was crisp and well fried, The beef and potato filling was tender and well seasoned The birria consommé has a ghostly hint of oregano that disappears without lingering, The sauces decorating the outside of the flautas are balanced, The cheese is salty and rich and accents the flavor profile to completion. My Jamaica was crisp and fresh, and complimented my meal. A fantastic find that I would recommend to anyone. I drove 40 minutes to try this dish and I would drive 80 minutes to eat it again! This dish lived up to the hype in every possible way! Don't miss your chance, Get your Flautas Ahogadas ASAP read more

Takos - FLAUTAS AHOGADAS - Tacos Near Me - Bellflower, California

I stopped by after seeing the hype online, but overall, the experience didn't live up to expectations. As soon as I arrived, there was a line out the door. The space is extremely limited--only about two to three tables inside and a couple outside--so it feels crowded and a bit chaotic. With how popular this place has become, the setup just doesn't accommodate the volume of customers very well. First off, the prices are on the higher side. I paid around $40 for two large drinks and a torta. The torta itself was $14, but the al pastor meat inside lacked flavor and didn't stand out. Honestly, you're better off grabbing tacos from a good street vendor--they tend to have more authentic flavor at a better price. As for the flautas, they didn't look like what's shown on TikTok. They are very large portions, which could be a plus for some, but it's a lot of food--definitely too much if you're not someone who eats big meals. I wasn't able to finish mine. The drink also missed the mark; it tasted more like a mix of lemonade and strawberry rather than something well-balanced. Other downsides: long wait times, dirty tables, and it's hard to hear your number being called if you're waiting outside. One positive note--the music inside while waiting was enjoyable and added a nice vibe. Overall, I'd rate this place a 3.6 out of 5. It didn't meet my expectations, and I wouldn't return. read more

Last visit 03-22-26. Been passing this spot for the past 9 yrs. Came once for some some asada tacos but that's its. Everything was made fresh to go. The food was great. Better than I expected. The birria was tender and flavorful. The consomé was also good. The service was great. The cashier was polite and professional. He was very patient as I looked over the menu and when placing my order. Restaurant is small. Seating is available outside and inside tho. It was clean and real chill. Not a lot of ppl but it was busy. I would definitely return for the trio. read more

I saw this place on Instagram, and had to try it. It's a small joint with just two indoor tables and one outdoor table. Came there for lunch on a weekday and got an inside table. Ordered their flautas Ahogadas, taquitos, and Birria taco. Everything was made fresh and was so bomb. The flautas and taquitos were so crunchy and tender inside from the meat. My favorite dish of the day was the birria taco. There's already so much flavor in the taco meat, but the consomme takes it over the edge. I could order another. Another thing worth mentioning is that their salsa are super super bomb. The workers are warm, and make your food fast. Recommend a visit. read more

Been driving past this place for quite some time and heard it was good!! so hard to choose from all the items, decided on the torta Cubana!! the torta Cubana comes with milanesa, ham, hotdog, cheese and egg. It was delicious!! And big enough to share! It was $16.99 a little pricey for a sandwich, but worth it because we could share and I took half of my sandwich home.. read more

It seems everyone and their brother knows about TAKOS! I ordered: CALIFORNIA BURRITO FLAUTAS AHOGADAS,(delicious, plenty of filling) MAR Y TIERRA burrito ( GREASY & Good), TORTA CUBANA ( Yummy). The place is no bigger then a postage stamp. They do seem to have a handle on flavors, I loved their chipotle hot sauce. The portions are enough to make another meal, which we did for breakfast! Expect a bit of a wait, wasn't too bad, Patience is key. The cashier was nice enough. Would like to try other items next time which might include those FLAUTAS again! read more

Heard about Takos on IG, although I've driven past several times. There was quite a line due to the post I saw being on IG and Tik Tok. Takos is located in a strip mall that has plenty of parking. There are two tables inside and two outside. Small place, mostly for carry out orders. The cashier was friendly and not too phased by the surge of guests. He filled the self-serve salsa, lemon and cucumber station when I advised him here were out of cucumbers. I ordered what I saw on IG: Flautas Ahogadas. I ordered to go because the inside only seats 6 and the tables were full. Flautas were potato and pork. They were quite large and I could only eat 2. They were tasty and crispy. The flavor of the consume was ok and I enjoyed the cabbage and vegetables that were served with the dish (as well as the sliced cucumbers). Enjoyable meal and leftovers. Not crave-able enough for me to go back for that dish. I may try something else if in the area. read more

Me and my brother were looking for a place to eat on Rosecrans and bellflower blvd. and we came across this small little gem. It's probably one of the smallest restaurants in this intersection and it is a Birria taco restaurant. Claims it is Tijuana authentic. And the flavors prove it. And the made with beef not goat meat so it's really really enjoyable. Like I mentioned it is small. There's probably 6 chairs inside the restaurant and 8 chairs outside of it. That is it. I made my food to go. From the looks of it, everybody was making their order to go. In the time that I ordered and received my food there was a lot of people coming in. Everything taste good their salsa are very spicy. All that food you can easily feed three people total was $67. I gotta say this was pretty good and I will be returning for the rest of the menu. read more

Heard about Takos from TikTok & decided to give it a try. We initially went on a Saturday night & it was an hour and 45 minute wait. That was actually crazy so we decided to go back on a weekday, a Tuesday, right when they opened. That was probably the smartest thing we could have done. The first time we went we both got Asada tortas and they were so delicious. This was my first and only time trying one, and I definitely recommend it. The Asada tacos were just regular, the Asada burrito was just regular, nothing special. We also got the giant flautas Taquito type things. They were sooooo good. I don't even like sour cream and they have sour cream on them and I devoured them! I believe they were chicken and potato. They come in this sauce, the sauce was so delicious! It was like cabbage inside the sauce. Honestly, you can just eat the cabbage in the sauce, it was giving vegan pozole, that's how good it was. They could probably put that on the menu and serve that just by itself, but that all together dipped in the flautas was delicious. Every time I've been back, I either get the torta or the flautas definitely recommend just be conscious of the certain times and days that you go because there will be a wait. read more

Tried Takos and had a really great experience overall. The service here is super friendly and welcoming -- easily one of the highlights of the visit. I ordered the flautas ahogadas and a shrimp taco. The flautas were delicious, topped with salsa, cheese, and lettuce, and packed with a beef-and-potato filling. I actually liked the potato in there, though it does feel a bit like filler -- and while the dish was really good, it's a little on the pricey side. The shrimp taco, on the other hand, was excellent and easily my favorite bite of the meal. The spot itself is small but very clean, tucked into a small lot, and feels well taken care of. Overall, great food, standout service, and a place I'd happily come back to -- especially for those shrimp tacos. read more

I've been here a few times since my initial review and what I can tell you definitively is that they take a very long time to make and serve your food. Even if you order ahead , avg about 20 mins after scheduled pick up time. All the take out drivers are upset as we all wait. read more

Literally a hole in the wall. Very tiny place but with very delicious food. When we got there around 1 pm there was a little line. Like moved fairly quickly by ready to wait a little for your food, it does take a little. The food is amazing. We tried ordering birria items but they were sold out already, so instead we ordered their famous Flautas Ahogas 10/10. Probably my favorite item I tried, warm, delicious and just great flavor. We also ordered the Tijuana torta 10/10, very tasty and delicious. The Gringa was delicious too. No complaints highly recommend visiting this spot. Amazing and delicious food. read more

The people there were very friendly. It did take quite a while to get our order, but they were busy with takeout orders. The reason why I gave them a 3 is because of the food. I must say bigger is not a guarantee for better. We got their taquitos which were very dry. And their flautas, which were also very dry. And it wasn't cheap so that made it even worse. We really wanted to enjoy the experience, but we did not. Will not be going back. read more

All the positives! Great food, Great service and friendly staff! Negatives, how in gods name have the Mexicans done like the Italians and believe that a Bieria taco plate is $19.99 like Risotto is $35.00? Yes, I absolutely can produce both dishes at a fraction of the cost. I get overhead, staff etc. but being honest you have strong competition right down the street for half the price and all of the above. Again 4-stars and delicious but have to go back up the street. Working class Mexican restaurants where the workers go are always the best. You were highly recommended btw. read more

TaKos is such a reliable neighborhood gem, nothing else in the area even compares. There was a moment when we thought they were gone for good, but we're so glad they're back! We honestly love everything on their menu but our go to is always the Birria Trio. It includes a quesabirria, taco, doradito and their consomé, which is super flavorful. Chips and guacamole are also a must! We love the way they fry their chips here, they're super thick yet crispy and airy. Dining wise, they only have a few tables inside and one outside so we usually do pickup or delivery. When we do come in, it's always busy (a good sign) but the wait is never too bad. Ordering online or by phone ahead of time makes it super easy. read more

We stumbled across this place because of a reel that popped up on my feed. And so very glad it did! At first I thought $16 was a little steep for flautas but they are huge! And worth every penny! Straight fire. And excellent customer service as well! 100/10 recommend. read more

Edit. Okay, like the "manager" stated in her reply, my review was "all over the place" but it was because we tried 3 different dishes, but clearly she can't take constructive criticism.... Like taking cleaning seriously. She claimed that the reason the place was dirty is because people "bring in dogs" but my dog was never inside. I dare you to check the cameras and prove my do ever step a paw inside the restaurant. I can, however, prove that cleaning has been a issue for this restaurant for a while. And is this is the part customers see, I can only imagine what it looks like in the kitchen..... It is my fault for falling for the Instagram hype. Food looks good. And the presentation is just like the pictures and video. But the taste is just bland. Shrimp tacos were simple, tasted like boiled shrimp. Chicken in the taquitos was over seasoned and dry and the beef flautas was mostly potato. I had ordered two Jamaicas so when they called my ordered I asked the cashier for them and he said "Didn't I give them to you already?" Which I could very insulting. I paid $60+ for flautas and taquitos, I'm sure if I wanted more aguas frescas I could afford it. But the worse was the dirty in the doorway and seating outside. Seems like cleaning is not a priority there. We ate there because soggy taquitos are not my thing but I was embarrassed with my friend who came all the way from Culver City. All it takes is a bucket of water, a little degreaser and a broom. Seriously, I'm okay with paying for food even if it's overpriced, but not cleaning is not acceptable. read more

So my new favorite Agua Fresca is Jamaica and Takos here makes it in perfect flavor. Not too sweet, a bit of tartness and a subtle hint of hibiscus. Sooooo good! Also got their viral flautas which was amazing. Taquitos was crispy and not oily which is a surprise. Inside had meat and potatoes which is the perfect combination. The sauce it is dipped in is great with the red onion and pickled jalapeños together. Overall this dish is combined perfectly. Also got the birria trio which had 3 different style of birria taco and the birria dipping sauce. Again the birria soup/sauce I was expecting it to be oily like most places but it isn't oily. Is almost like Takos is very health conscious. But flavor is still great without the oil. The only complaints I have is after the flautas, I want the potatoes in my birria taco too. maybe there will be future options to? One can only wish. Service is great as always. The guy in the front taking order is friendly and very helpful. This really is becoming my go to taco place even if it is a bit far. Is definitely worth the extra 7 min drive. read more

I've been to this place twice and I didn't expect it to be so tiny, if there is a line going out the door it's because it's small so don't let it scare you. The people are very friendly and very attentive. I've had their surf and turf nachos and they were really good but I think my favorite was their quesatacos / quesabirrias, tons of meat and cheese and the consommé was pretty good too. Now I also tried their flautas ahogadas and I think they're overrated -_- they were all potato hardly any meat. I liked the concept of it and they looked really good but too much potato for me I'll just stick to the quesatacos. read more

Over hyped. Very bland the only thing we liked was the consomé. Tried the flautas ahogadas, quesadilla, and tako fundido. Unfortunately, everything was kind of lacking flavor. The flautas were disappointing because I thought they dont with consommé, but instead it was more of an enchilada-style sauce. They were crunchy on the outside but soggy inside, and we didn't even add the sauce until we got home. The quesadilla was okay but not very flavorful, and same with the tako fundido. We also ordered a side of consommé, and honestly that was probably our favorite part of the meal. It was really good. read more

Food is good! They have a good selection and the takos are massive. We got our order to go and they included everything you need for a great meal. read more

Please arrive HUNGRY! Their FLAUTAS AHOGADAS are SUPER DELICIOUS, TORTAS ARE ALSO AMAZING, as well as their SHRIMP TACOS! Look, this place was found on IG and when I say this is a hidden gem, it's just THAT. I'm afraid that it won't remain hidden for long once people continue trying their flautas. Takos is a traditional establishment, service is good, and the language barrier didn't stop the cashier, nor I, for that matter all of our food came out correctly, and was the perfect temperature too. There aren't too many seats inside the restaurant but you can find additional seating outside. Also, if you want to take your flautas HOME, everything comes separately so that it doesn't ruin your experience with soggy food. I will be doing this on my next trip! lol read more

First time going to this place and it was just okay. Had their carne asada nachos. Asada needed more flavor and I did get some birria mixed in which is not what I ordered but it didn't taste bad if anything it tasted better than the asada. Needed more nacho cheese. The salsas are good. Guacamole had no flavor as u can see in the pic. This place is very, very small, no restrooms and only 1 & 1/2 tables to sit inside. Also no working telephone number to order for pick up so if u want to pick up, you just have to go and wait for about 10-15 minutes. read more

This review was based on my DoorDash experience. I never received my pre-order. Last Thursday afternoon , I was surprised to see that Takos was already listed as closed on the app. Disappointed, I still went ahead and pre-ordered my meal for the following day. I chose the 1st option 11:30 am-12pm. The driver arrived on time that Friday only to find a long line out the door. He checked in with me every 15 minutes to tell me he was still waiting. After an hour wait, he said he was finally at the cashier. I asked if my food was sitting for an hour or if they were barely going to make it. I didn't get a reply. Instead, I received a message from DoorDash that my order had been CANCELLED! I was livid! How does a restaurant know of a pre-order and still run out of food??!! The delivery time I selected, was the very first delivery slot available on the app!! read more

Takos used to be I go to spot but last couple of times carne asada meat quality has been poor. Sad will need to find a new place.

It was good. It just wasn't for me. Food was made quickly. Food was hot and tasteful but for me, I'm such a foodie and this tasted like any other taco spot. Service was good. The shrimp taco was good. They did not include my guacamole that was supposed to come with the taquitos (they called them Flautas). The four rating is due to the missing guacamole. read more

The flautas ahogadas were pretty good I won't lie (I had to try one before I snapped a pic), but the service was really bad, sadly. I had placed an order online at 2:00 with an alert that my order would be ready at 2:15. I get there and am told that there will be a wait, which is understandable bc it was busy. But no hello or welcome. I try to give benefit of the doubt bc maybe it was just an off day for the worker. Anywho, 30-45 min goes by and all of the walk in customers had gotten their food and left. Even the ones that placed orders after I had arrived. Don't let this review discourage you from trying it, because the food is tasty, but I think the service could be better. It's possible that they were just unprepared for the amount of orders they were receiving due to the TikTok that Grub with Greg posted. read more

Takos - FLAUTAS AHOGADAS - Tacos Near Me - Bellflower, California

Their food had no real taste. I ordered the trio and the Flautas ahogadas ... I told the guy please pack the trio to go but to keep the flautas in the cup n to drink a strawberry drink ... over $30 ... when I got the food - no drink because I was not charged for it and they did not put the Flautas in the cup as I asked. Those lil birria cups is nothing but las palmas enchilada red sauce.. I took one bite of the taco from the trio n was disappointed with the taste of it. Only ate one Flauta n put the rest in the trash. I wouldn't be coming back or recommending it to anyone. It's a small location with about 4 tables inside n 2 outside. read more

AN HOUR AND A HALF WAIT?!?!? No thank you. The food is good but not so good that I'd be willing to wait that long. We placed our order at 7:20 for 2 orders of flautas and 2 carne asada tacos. We saw the no refunds sign. And proceeded to the salsas. The cucumber were empty and everything was a mess. Tables a mess, no napkins to clean them. Food and utensils all over the floor. Hungry customers waiting over an hour for food. Order at your own risk! My wife asked if we could get a free soda for waiting so long and the guy just kept saying sorry. I know this place blew up on TT so maybe they aren't used to the crowd, they only have one fryer for flautas in the back, but there are 4-5 guys back there making food. Orders were going out only every 5-10 mins. We got our food at 8:45. Some poor soul was scared to go to his car bc his wife was hangry. I was ready to tell my wife lets go. The liquor store next door is getting good business from people buying snacks. Don't got here unless you aren't hungry or you have alot of free time to waste!!! I was telling customers looking to patronize this business that we had been waiting an hour. The guy at the counter was quoting people shorter times. Very disappointed and we likely won't be back. Flautas were just as good at other places I've had them. read more

Food was very good, but the service completely ruined the experience. When we walked in, the cashier didn't greet us, didn't say "hi,". He just stood there and stared at us when he was finally ready to take our order. It felt awkward and like we were annoying him just by being there. Also, the dining area was not clean. Almost every table was dirty and had old food and crumbs on it, and no one was going around cleaning or wiping anything down. It gave the place a bad first impression, especially when we're about to sit and eat. The food itself was actually really good. It's just sad that the customer service and cleanliness do not match the quality of the food. If the owners invested a little more attention into training their staff on basic customer service and keeping the restaurant clean, this could easily be a great spot. Right now, it's hard to enjoy good food when you feel unwelcome and surrounded by dirty tables. read more
