    Burrito with a drink

    Great food! Great prices! Great service with music in the background to enjoy the atmosphere! Must try !!

    Great tacos. Taco Tuesday is the time to get a variety of tacos. I ordered the pastor, carnitas, asada, pollo. I personally like the pastor the best. Toppings include raw onions and cilantro. Red sauce is very tasty and spicy hot. The green sauce adds a bit of flavor. I mix the green and red together. I squeeze lime on all my tacos bringing out the flavors. The service is super fast and the family is super friendly. The place resembles a small stand. There is a parking lot too.

    I had a craving for tacos and swung by here to try it out since I've driven by it many times to get Boaster's kitchen across the street. I've seen a line here every once in a while and a line to me means it's good to excellent. On this particular day I ordered a Al pastor quesadilla and three Asada tacos. I'd say it was decent but nothing I'd go tell my friends about. Without the green or red sauce I'd have trouble finishing it off. The tacos were dry and the quesadillas were pretty greasy which is common. They have covered outdoor seating and a small parking lot for the strip mall but ample. I took my food to go but was within five minutes of the fast food takeout joint.

    This place exceeded my expectations! The food was delicious and they give generous portions. The Sopes were phenomenal, crispy outside and soft inside. The super fries had seasoned fries which made all the difference. They had decent outdoor seating which was clean and had a tv. They were nice enough to play some cartoons for my kids while we enjoyed our meal. This is our new go to taco place

    Fish taco

    Trying Taqueria Carnalitos for Mexican food for the first time. Fish Taco is really amazinggg. We really liked it. The filling in the taco is really good and fresh. Chicken Flautas was good but there was no flavour with the filling. The dipping sauce and salad added more flavour to Flautas. Shrimp Tacos were good. Overall we loved the Fish Tacos the most. Will definitely recommend it to our friends. We will go back for Fish Tacos for sure. Ambience was good. Service was good as well. They are very generous with the in-house sauce and onion salad. We really appreciate the service. Presentation of the food is really appealing. Overall very good place for trying Mexican food.

    Bruuuuuuuuuh! Todo todo todito está riquísimo! Slap yo Mamá good! I've been craving tacos and we've tried a couple around town (I live in Whittier) BUT today my hubby brought home some tacos, tortas, quesadillas. The Tortas is juicy and delicious I'm mad I couldn't finish it. Anyway come try this food it's REALLY good!

    I was very pleased with the quality and size of their breakfast burrito, and in many ways it's comparable to what many locals would deem the best breakfast burrito in town that is J&S on Garfield Ave. If that doesn't persuade you enough, the service was great, there was plenty of seating under two covered patios, and the menu has something for everyone - tacos, sopes, tortas, picaditos; you name it! I'll definitely be returning in the near future.

    Here and there I would have taco cravings so I ordered to go for a quick dinner. The employee was helpful and explained what he recommended for me to order. Tacos are $1.50 on Tuesdays only! Any other day is regular price at $2.25! I ordered 4 carne asada tacos, 2 cheese quesadillas with pollo , and 1 grilled shrimp taco. The portions were great and the sauce for the tacos were delicious. Red sauce was spicy but that was how I liked it haha! For 4 asada tacos, the employee gave me 2 green sauce and 1 red sauce. He also gave a side of sour cream for the cheese quesadillas. I would come back again.

    2 days in a row eating tacos de asada from here lol They taste good! Their salsa roja was my favorite. We also had their quesa tacos which my son loved and an all meat burrito de asada. There is plenty of parking they do have a seating area. They do not have a public restroom. Customer service was great! There is many more options on their menu but I decided to try their tacos first and I'm a happy customer:)

    I ordered through grub hub and when we got there they were still prepping my order. I had some time to kill so I didn't really mind. About 15 minutes or so later they apologized for the wait, and handed me a very well packaged bag of the food I ordered. The worker said that he appreciated the patience and upgraded my drink from a medium to a large. Their food was bomb! The ingredients were fresh and honestly very much worth the wait. I really enjoyed my flautas plate! Something about fresh shredded lettuce makes me happy.

    Taco Tuesday $1.50

El Cremita is cheesy yet surprisingly light, never greasy. The chicken is soft and juicy, and the pops of pomegranate add a bright contrast that lifts every bite. Whiskil Taco is a dream for veggie lovers -- sweet, tender squash wrapped in a creamy, nutty sauce that feels both comforting and fresh at the same time. Mixta Taco stands out with its sausage and avocado combo -- rich, savory, and satisfyingly balanced. Taco de Chicharrón brings a fun textural contrast: crunchy, savory chicharrón paired with fresh, vibrant pico de gallo that keeps it lively. And the Pork Belly Cochinita Pibil? A showstopper. The generous slab of pork belly is smoky, buttery-tender, and practically melts into each bite -- deeply flavorful and indulgent in the best way. If you're looking to try a spread that hits creamy, crunchy, fresh, smoky, and sweet all in one sitting, this lineup absolutely delivers.
