I walked in and was instantly greeted by the staff. They are always so kind and so nice. The interior has changed a bit since I last came but it definitely is still wonderful. Their prices are still very reasonable. I have 2 chivis, 2 tacos and an Agua de coco horchata. Everything came out very fast especially since it was not as busy and it was around 3pm so I came at a good time. I can't wait to come back soon.

I really liked the flour tortilla itself, soft and perfectly browned. Meat itself was kinda lacking flavor, so I found myself dousing it in both the salsa, and then my friend's salsa as well. My friend said the chicken taco was just *ok*.

Friday night around 11:30 PM and it was still packed with a line... definitely a popular late night…read morespot. I got one of each: al pastor, lengua, pollo, and asada. They have a self-serve condiment bar so you can load up on salsas, onions, cilantro, etc. Unlimited refills which is nice. The lengua was the best one by far. Super tender and flavorful. Pollo was a little disappointing... kind of dry compared to the others. One thing I did like is they pack the tacos with a lot of meat, so you're definitely getting your money's worth. But overall, flavor-wise it didn't hit the way I expected. It's good, but compared to some other popular taco spots in LA, it just didn't stand out enough for me to come back.

First time for parking lot tacos for me!…read more I was feeling a bit peckish but didn't want to eat too much, so Yelpers, thank you for leading me here! I was able to snag two tacos for $4.50 that tided me over until dinner time. Now: bring your car because there's no place to sit! I arrived on foot, so dined standing up. Quite a variety of means - I'm a "safe" eater and enjoyed pollo and asada. I loved the self-serve salsas; the green salsa was delish and had a good little kick to it. Happy to have found this spot, and want to come back! 2026: 32/100

Amazing tacos. Absolutely delicious. The taco chefs gave great recommendations too. All the flavors…read morewere on point. My favorite was the brisket. It was so tender and juicy! On another note, I'd skip the pork though...I found it a bit dry. The parking lot is huge and there's security all over, so despite it being in a "sketch" part of downtown, it still feels relatively safe. Also, they accept credit card. There's no toilets or tables though, so you have to eat standing or in your car. *Hot take, I think this place is better than the famous Tacos el Gordo in San Diego.

For for first timers, I'd recommend ordering the Villa's Trio which is what I got. Those come with the Ranchera Asada quesotaco as well as the Papas con Chorizo and Black Bean con Pollo quesotacos which are a trio exclusive. All the tacos were meaty, flavorful, and crispy. You honestly don't even need the side sauces since the tacos are already flavorful on their own. Great quality. I also got the Watermelon Agua Fresca which was refreshing, tasty, and sweet. Goes well with the tacos. I also got the Jamaica Agua Fresca, but that one was a bit too tart for my liking. The line can get long, so I would prepare to wait for up to an hour on weekends. There's ample free parking at the grocery store lot nearby. For seating and tables, it's limited and competitive. You just have to get lucky if a spot clears up as soon as you get your food. I also like how the restaurant handles crowd control. They allow a couple of people at a time to go inside, order, and get their condiments. You wait outside until they call you for your food. I like that it didn't feel crowded while I was getting my condiments. I highly recommend this spot and I will definitely be coming back.

Looked for an ATM all out of service around same area. tried 4 different ATM's and 5th happen to work. Aesthetics are nice, food smells good, service was fast. Horchata was very disappointing.. almost taste watered down and you get a lot of that rice/nutty flavor in my opinion their horchata not for me.

I delayed writing this review to really think through, and now I will confidently say--these are…read moreeasily the best tacos I've ever had. Having been to so many taco stands, I think what makes Tire Shop Taqueria really stand out are the right-off-the-grill charcoal-grilled meats, the freshly made tortillas literally in front of you as you are waiting on line, and the free guacamole that comes with each taco. The ordering process is like any other taco stand, though one difference is here the salsas/guacamole are all handled by the staff. If you'd like more of something, just ask them instead of reaching for the ladle yourself. There is a separate area though for grilled onions/peppers and radishes you can serve yourself. I got the asada, chorizo, cabeza, and al pastor, and they were all so good. The asada and chorizo are specifically grilled over charcoal, and that flavor really shines through. I loved how meaty and tender the cabeza was too, and the classic al pastor hit the spot. They have large communal tables setup, so it is a great friendly vibe to enjoy your meal I will say, the surrounding area is not the best in LA, especially given how the taco stand is only open at night. The parking lot is quite small, so I parked on a side street that had some abandoned cars, but of course, if you are in/from LA, this is not that new for us. I would hesitate if I am a tourist though to make it out here. Anyhow, the food really is worth it here, and I can't wait to be back!

My husband said these are the best tacos he had in the states. Period. The flame grilled meats make…read moresuch a big difference in the flavor and the hand made corn tortillas are a must and take a great spot to an amazing spot. We only got the carne asada and the al pastor but it was so good we went back in line for seconds. The meat was very flavorful - the carne asada was thin but still very tender. The al pastor, I think uses a fattier cut than some other places but keeps it from drying out. The tacos were leaking meat juices still. The surrounding streets are quite dark at night but the parking lot the stand is in, is well lit and there is a covered seating area. We went on Thanksgiving weekend and there were maybe always 15-20 ppl in line at any given time. I imagine there are longer lines in the summer.

My favorite is the orange/peach colored sauce that has a good spicy kick to it. It always hit the spot and it burns sooo good (if you enjoy spicy food and flavor). The horchata is delicious too. Very good pricing ($2.5 per taco and $3 for a medium sized horchata). Bring cash. They also accept zelle or card (for an additional fee). I keep coming back here so of course I would definitely recommend!

I've never found a mexican spot that does this, not to mention the food is so fresh and so delicious. I call it a baby burrito but what you'll want to order is the 1/2 pound Mar y Tierra burrito, lol. I'm not sure if they do 1/2 pound with all burritos but I will ask & update this review next time I go back which will be very soon as it's my new go-to Mexican spot in West LA. I also got the shrimp taco which was spectacular. The guy at the front is super kind, and the ambiance is calm. The salsa that comes with your food is incredible and I can taste the freshness. On my can't-miss list!
