This is the best Mexican fast food. It's better than Chipotle, Cava, and Del Taco/ Taco Bell. The service here is very good and they bring you the food after you order. The plantains with guacamole are very good so too is the birra bowl read more

Shoutout to Maria & Pablo who are incredible when it comes to consistently providing amazing hospitality when I visit! I hope Irene the GM sees this because they truly are wonderful and I appreciate all their hard work! Also the food is always amazing and comes out fast! So thank you to the team in the kitchen as well! If anything has been wrong in the order your team is always so quick to fix the issue. LOVE YOU GUYS! read more

This place is great! We were walking around starved and realized we've never tried Tocaya before so we took a quick look at the menu and went in. The staff are all pretty busy, but they're all so sweet. Got the taco combo (which comes with 2 tacos, a side, and an agua fresca) and a birria bowl. The food is pretty tasty, I think the mahi mahi taco was the best thing ever, the steak taco was pretty good but nothing crazy. I really enjoyed my birria bowl. It's salty, which I am a fiend for, but it can get boring after a few bites, thankfully they come with these pickled jalapeño onion carrots that provide the PERFECT bite and sourness to mix things up. I made myself a tiny burrito with the tortilla that comes with it, and felt unbelievably full with half of it still left. The aguas frescas are pretty good too, got the cucumber mint and it was so refreshing. Chips and salsa I think weren't too interesting, the salsa mainly has a spicy sweet tomatoey flavor. But definitely a great place with comfy seating. read more

This location is in the Century City Mall. It wasn't very busy when I got there around 5pm. You order at the front and then go and sit down with your number. It was happy hour (weekdays 3pm-6pm) so my chips and salsa were only $2! I love their outdoor seating area and it was a great place to catch up with a friend. The food came out quickly and tasted great. The street corn en fuego had a spicy symbol next to it and there was indeed a little spice, not a ton if that's what you're looking for. I would say the value and price match up great and I was certainly full afterwards. read more

WHY IS THERE ALWAYS CHICKEN IN THE BEANS? I love Tocaya but for the past year anytime I've eaten in person or ordered delivery I always end up chewing on hard pieces in my black beans. I am vegan so I really don't appreciate biting into random hard bits that I'm not sure what they are. I've eat/ordered from the SM location before along with the location that was previously in the Beverly Center and this has never been an issue. PLEASE MOVE THE BEANS AWAY FROM THE MEATS IN THE KITCHEN LINEUP read more

Great pricing (and a visit) during Taco Tuesday. This used to be the most amazing steal, as of more recently (2026), it's still a discount on the normal taco menu, and you can have dinner for two around $20. Food: I had one tinga (chicken) taco and one quesabirria taco; chips and guacamole (full size to share). The tinga taco is a little spicy and a great choice while the quesabirria is an even better one served on a blue corn tortilla with melted cheese inside. Guacamole here is served with pomegranate seeds which is a fun twist, and you can request either plantain chips or tortilla chips (I went for tortilla). Fun tip: you can ask for more chips and they'll refill. Some days the chips are amazing and warm, this latest visit they were just ok and room-temp. Fast casual style restaurant order at the counter, grab a seat with your number, and wait for your food. Tables are available indoors and out. Don't forget to join their Tocaya Rewards program and earn points for another visit and discount in the future. read more

Loved the be seated and scan and order your food to be delivered to the table. We will be back! read more

July 8, 2025 | Century City | My cousin & I decided to have lunch at Tocaya Organica today, before her flight in a few hours! What a surprise! It turned out to be Taco Tuesday and tacos are $2 all day long!! Woohoo! Tacos: The Squash Blossom Taco is my favorite! Yum! Incredible burst of flavor with every bite! I would definitely order more of this one!! The cauliflower taco was tasty! She enjoyed the Beef Birria Tacos! Strawberry Basil Agua Fresca: Refreshing! I would easily order again and/or try the cucumber flavor! Decor | Vibe: Beautiful, earthy decor, surrounded by greenery, as we walked along the colorful tile! Relaxing music! The Patio area was nice and breezy, as it's a hot day; we were grateful! Busy Bee: Perfect timing! When we arrived, there were two people in front of us! Shortly after, this place got super busy! Customer Service: Incredibly friendly & welcoming from the moment we stepped in! Thanks again to the friendly guy at the register who helped me decide on my order! Also, our friendly server checked on us throughout our meal! Service with a big smile and conversation flowed easily! Overall: Yes, please! Flavorful tacos, beautiful surroundings & excellent/friendly customer service...absolutely! Plus, you can go shopping afterwards, which we did, as it's located at the Westfield Century City Mall! Score! read more

I'd come back here! Good pricing, quick service, yummy food! I'd recommend the chicken tinga taco, the squash blossom taxo, and the birria bowl! read more

I am coming back for those squash blossom tacos asapppppp read more

I am stunned that this restaurant isn't rated higher. I ordered 3 salmon salads and everyone in my family was delighted. They gave us each a generous salmon filet that was grilled with a mild chile-lime seasoning that was delicious, and even better with some of the juice of the lime that was included. The salad was loaded with pepitas, cotija crumbles and tortilla strips, and the spicy cilantro dressing was amazing. All of this for a very reasonable price. (We also liked their horchata--it tastes homemade). It's also conveniently right in front of the AMC theater. We'll be eating there regularly. read more

It becomes my favorite place now! 1. Self ordering, no need pay big tips. 2. Very nice outdoor and indoor sitting area, spacious, and I can just order a drink sitting there and work on my laptop while day. 3. It's the only place, looks nice and clean, I can sit in long time, no need pay big tips. 4. The menu price is very reasonable, cheaper than sweet greens, around $14 for a rice bowl, and $4 for a drink. 5. Very good for family and children hang around. Cause they have large couch area. Good for business talk and date. read more

What i like about this place, you can have your Mexican fix without having too much saturated fat. This is in the century city mall, so be aware if you come at the wrong time it'll be hard to find a seat. Started with the Chips and guac, they had sunflower and pomegranate seeds which surprisingly was a nice touch, well seasoned. Chips were decent. I ordered the fajita del rey. It was pulled chicken in a reddish stew, black whole beans next to a bed of rice and some pickled peppers. I liked it. The meat portion was a little left to be lacking but the beans were made very well and the flavor was good. Service was good, the floor was a little sticky towards the back but ill give them the benefit of the doubt, might have just been the person before us. If youre looking for a treat that wont be calorie bomb with flavor, give this place a try. I cant give this place 1/2 stars, ill go 4 but really its a 3.5/5. read more

Stopped in and tried two of their vegan tacos , both were good the cauliflower one was better in my opinion. This place has a nice atmosphere upstairs in the century city mall near the movie theater outside of the food court area. Friendly service , looked like they had a full bar would be nice to grab drinks with the girlies after shopping! read more

Stopped by Tocaya Organica at this location for a quick bite. The atmosphere was pretty cozy, clean space and comfortable to dine in. The service was also great, from the person who took my order to the one who dropped off the food. Everyone was friendly and attentive, which I appreciated. I ordered four tacos: steak, Tinga, cauliflower, and Baja. Unfortunately, the food was mediocre at best. The steak, Tinga, and cauliflower tacos were bland and really needed more flavor or a kick. The Baja taco, on the other hand, was the star -- crispy, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. The cucumber mint drink was also so good, very refreshing and light, the perfect complement to the meal. Overall, cozy atmosphere and friendly service, but the food could use more seasoning and excitement to match the vibe. read more

I eat a lot of Mexican food. Like...a LOT. Definitely more than I'm proud to admit but it's just so good. And Tocaya is no exception! Everything they make here tastes fresh and it's very customizable with so many options for proteins and cheeses and toppings. My go-to is the taco combo, which comes with two tacos, a side, and an Agua Fresca. It's a great deal! You order at a counter then they bring the food to your table so it's a great quick service. I love all the outdoor seating too, to really soak in the nice LA weather (and people watch...I saw James Corden while sitting here once!). read more

I've been coming here on Tuesdays at lunch for quite a while - Taco Tuesday is the best deal in Century City, hands down. Two tacos and 1/2 guac are under $10. I usually sit down at a table and order from the app to avoid the line. The guac comes out very quickly, followed shortly thereafter by the tacos. The servers are always friendly and accommodating, offering free refills of drinks, chips, or plantains. read more

Had an amazing taco Tuesday here yesterday! I love how easily the tacos can be veganized (if they aren't already)! I really enjoyed the cauliflower taco and the la flor taco the most but the vegan chicken tinga was also delicious! I love how they now put a little vegan flag in it to ensure it really is vegan! The sauces are so creamy, savory and decadent and I love how these are all default vegan. The service was friendly although it did take longer than expected for the food to arrive. I love the ambiance and the tables both inside and outside are so comf read more

Tocaya Organica is a good option for anyone visiting the century city mall and a pre-game eat & drink stop for the AMC moviegoers. Fresh organic Mexican fusion food with tasty variety margaritas infused with fresh fruits. The tacos are really good but need a few to get by your hunger, and the bowls and salads are decent enough portions. torta although a bit small, was enjoyable with bursts of flavor. The passion fruit and organica margaritas are the bomb, and around $8-10. The ambiance is chill vibrant with seating indoors and outdoors. Order as you go, from counter or table, allows for simple hangs and good eats. read more

Over the years the food here has continuously gone downhill. The ambiance was nice, but that's about it. I was excited to give this another shot and try it again. I ordered the California Burrito which has carne asada listed as the first ingredient which I assume was the main ingredient. The burrito size was smaller than expected and cut in half. All the carne asada is at the top for display and is gone within 2 bites. It also had very little toppings like guac pico de gallo. The burrito was at least 50% purple potato which is not what I ordered. The majority is purely potato which is not what I paid for. I was hoping for a redemption, but was met with disappointment. read more

I've been a loyal customer at this place for years, and I must say, the food, customer service, and ambiance are always amazing. The only downside is that they closed the location near my place. However, I drive to either the one in Hollywood or the one in Century Mall just to get my favorite food. read more

Highly recommend the service is always impeccable. Very nice attentive you place your order at the register and they go ahead and bring you your food The ambience is always calm is very chill relax and aesthetics of the restaurant are just simply beautiful.

Tocaya Modern Mexican - 2 baja TACO COMBO chicken quesadilla - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Tocaya is a great option for families, both in the restaurant since you order at the counter and for take-out. We used to be at the Westwood location every week until it closed down and continue to order take-out from Century City. Both of my kids have food allergies, but thankfully the menu is easy to navigate. One of my kids has a dairy and egg allergy, so I love that there are grilled chicken strips. However, they're inconsistent at best. They are often overcooked or undercooked and barely edible. This last time we ordered these they were completely raw. Tocaya needs to do better. read more

Tocaya Modern Mexican - Raw kids chicken strips - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

We have been avoiding this location for almost a year and decided to give it a try again since it is under new management. When ordering our food, the server continuously cut me off when asking questions about the menu and didn't let me speak. He seemed to be rushing me even though there was only a few people in the restaurant. Following this, our food took over 20 minutes to come out of the kitchen and was incorrect. When we told the server that the food was not what we ordered, he seemed as if he didn't understand English and left the food on the table even after we told him it was incorrect. We also had to remind them that they forgot one of our sides. They finally took the food away and brought us out the correct order but it was cold. For reference, we've come to various Tocaya locations for over 8 years and have never had any problems except for this one. This is our second bad experience and we will not be returning. Very disappointed read more

The restaurant is airy, well lit, and clean. The person behind the counter allowed us to try samples of the agua fresca choices - the strawberry was surprisingly not too sweet and one free refill is included in the price. The red salsa accompanying the chips was light, fresh, fruity, and a great consistency. The chips were warm with a good thickness. The salmon bowl was large with a big piece of well cooked salmon. Dressing was tasty. The birria torta, a summer special, was delicious. The meat was plentiful and very juicy. The accompanying tomatillo crème was flavorful. The churro bites, however, were disappointing. They looked and tasted like a waffle which was cut into pieces and rolled in cinnamon sugar. The caramel dipping sauce was great - a light whipped crème that tasted more like dolce de leche. Solid option when visiting rhe mall. read more

The passion fruit margarita is a MUST! So delicious. The chips and guacamole are great too, with pomegranate bits. Service was quick & staff was friendly. I have yet to try their food, so I'll be back! Update: I went back the following day for lunch! I grabbed 2 of the birria tacos. The black tortillas and the plating was were aesthetically pleasing for me. Let's talk about the flavor though! Wow, I was not expecting it to be so savory. The birria here taste pretty authentic! My favorite part had to be the pickled onions, I am a sucker for those and they put the perfect amount. I was definitely wanting more, but was full I could not order more (if that makes sense lol!) I'm excited to go back again and try the birria plate since the tacos were so bomb. I want to also give a special shout out to Jose, who happened to be there most of the times I stopped by. He was very nice and attentive. Thank you Jose! read more

I've been to a few Tocayas over the years and the food is always tasty. I decided to stop by this one while my friend was going some shopping. The service was very friendly, and their happy hour is a really good deal. I just wanted a quick break from walking around in the sun and just grabbed a margarita, and it took 25 minutes to get it. It takes less than a minute to make. I regret tipping before receiving the service. read more

I usually really love this place, but I'm getting really annoyed at how how they packaged their things When you add salmon to a salad, they literally stick it on top of the salad in the same container and it makes the salad very soggy. The salmon should be in a separate container to avoid getting the salad soggy. This should just be a regular Protocol they follow. They also give you a tiny container of dressing, which barely gets through you any of the salad like literally not enough for anything... And they also stick that into the salad and everything just becomes so squishy... They should include a bigger dressing. It should be on the side and if you add salmon or chicken, it should also be on the side. Now for the tacos, especially when order to go. It's really frustrating that they put all the sauces on the taco itself. It made the Baja fish so soggy... I think that this place really needs to practice better protocol for how to pack to go items. read more
