The lines were long but quick, and there were open tables for us to sit and chill. We ordered guacamole and chips, tacos, tlacoyo, bowl, and a burrito. We got chips to munch on while we waited. The service felt hectic, but expected for how crowded it was. We sat and munch until our dinner came out one by one. They were gracious enough to give us more chips when asked. The place was casual and simple. I liked the corner where they had a phone and a bucket of beers for a picture op. They have a patio but that was super packed. Their restroom is super tiny, but made sense for the space. The owners were very nice, I believe it's the dad came by and gave us beers. It looked as the whole family was working. Love supporting the local families. We enjoyed the food a lot and it was our first time having a tlacoyo. Everything was great and full of flavors. I was surprised by the amount of avocado I got for my bowl as most places don't give you that much. We enjoyed our night at Zingo's. Will definitely return.

Came here on a whim and El Sereno really put us on. Zingo Tacos is one of those spots you randomly try and immediately want to tell people about. The tortillas tasted fresh, the meats were flavorful, and the portions were generous. Everything came out hot and satisfying, and you can tell they don't cut corners here. It's a no-frills taco spot that just does things right. Definitely a place we'll be coming back to and keeping in our rotation when we're in the area.

Top to bottom: Al Pastor Taco, (Crispy) Tripa Doradita Taco

Was really craving tacos and wanted to try a different spot. This hit the spot! Beware of parallel street parking. They do take phone in orders, if you are on a time crunch for lunch. They have some seating inside and outdoors in the back. Mulita -not a single glisten of grease on the tortilla, which I'm not use to but a great change up. If you don't like your food dripping with grease but love mulitas, give this one a try. It was a bit dry for my liking. (Crispy) Tripa Doradita taco - was just what I needed. Texture was amazing. Tender but crispy! So flavorful. Asada Taco -surprisingly so tender, even more tender than their Al Pastor. I actually prefer their Asada over their Al Pastor here. Al Pastor Taco -is exactly what you expect it to be. Tlacoyo -really filling, a bit on the dry side. Black beans didn't seem to have anything else mixed in it. Still pretty good after you pair it with their salsas.

Absolutely delicious tacos and burritos, my favorite were the al pastor and pork! They were so friendly and welcoming, and I appreciated the options for my vegetarian friends. Recommend checking them out at the farmer's market as well!

Found out about this place through social media and decided to try it out for lunch! I had the horchata, al pastor taco, carne asada taco, doradita, and al pastor burrito and enjoyed everything. I would recommend trying their al pastor, it was very flavorful. I liked it better than the carne asada. Overall highly recommend, food was tasty and the lady working there was so sweet!

Asada Quesadilla
Rob C.

This is one of those LA spots you're glad to find. I love their asada here, they really do it right. Some places the asada can be dry, overcooked, and on the crispy side but here that's not the case. Slow cooked, soft bite and rich with flavor that's how they makes it here. Good tacos and burritos. The quesadilla is really good here too. They do know what they're doing and I definitely want to come back here again.

Al pastor taco with all toppings
Ling L.

3.5 stars Ordered chicken taco for the kids with no toppings, Tlcoyo with chicken and al pastor taco for takeout. They are very generous with the meat. The Al pastor taco was good and well seasoned. It's not the kind that is freshly sliced off the stick and doesnt come with pineapple so it's not the al pastor flavor I was seeking. The chicken taco has large chunks of chicken meat. The meat was flavorful. Im not sure if this is a takeout problem but the meat was a bit dry and the tortilla edges were dry. Im sure it would have been better if we were able to consume it fresh. Despite that the flavor of the chicken was good and the kids loved it. I like that all the tacos come with cilantro, onions, salsa and guac by default. The Tlacoyo is a tortilla/bread like vessel that is filled with black beans and then topped with cheese and meat of choice. I can really liked the corn flavor. If you like beans, and taco meat combo with a nice corn flavor this is for you. Overall a pretty good taco place for locals.

Asada tlacoyo
Ann V.

Stopped by for a quick bite. The ladies in the front were friendly, welcoming and answered any questions I had. I tried the "famous" Tlacoyo. It was delicious, the asada was great. I wasn't disappointed about the tlacoyo.

Queso tacos of Asada
Eric R.

This scrappy food joint serves the textbook definition of a taco you eat to sober up. While I'll go on record and say I ate here sober, this place serves tacos made with love and were drenched in grease, which I would absolutely recommend draining or ordering the chicken for instance. The person serving us was super friendly and readily welcomed us, of which I'm very grateful for. The menu was also pretty budget friendly and was surprised at paying what I did, even if the tacos are smaller. The overall ambience was also dirty, and had gnats flying around however. I'm happy to give this place another chance someday, as first impressions don't necessarily mean a final one. Heres to you guys!

Tripas tacos
Natalia D.

Delicious authentic Mexican food. Stopped here for a quick bite. My husband and I both had tacos. He had the Al pastor and carne asada tacos and I had their tripas tacos. They were so good. The best tripas tacos I have had in LA. My husband's favorite were the asada tacos. The tortillas are small, but they really load them up. I love how they individually wrap each one. The service was great. When the lady brought the tacos out she was so happy and sweet. I felt like I was a kid getting served by my grandma again. I loved the ambiance. Spanish music and friendly faces all around. Outdoor seating only. Street parking out front.

Chicken taco

First time here , the service was excellent. The ladies were very friendly and nice. Great tasting food . Very impressed

WOW! Phenomenal! It is a must try!

We had intended to go to the bar next door, but one look at the crowd there and the loud throbbing music turned us off. I had wanted to go to Mi Corazon anyway, and was glad the group agreed. Lots of great mezcal and tequila options, as well as a well-stocked bar with wine, beer and cocktails. And the food menu looks great, but we didn't try it. Next time! The bartender was great and served us at our table. Brought us chips and a delicious homemade spicy salsa. The atmosphere was perfect for conversation, with good indie music playing at the right level. I will be back.

1 Star -- Extremely disappointing experience…read more Unfortunately, our experience at this restaurant was horrible from the moment we arrived. When I first arrived, I gave them the name of our reservation, and the staff had no idea what I was talking about. We were a party of 6, yet they seated us at a tiny table that was clearly not appropriate for our group. When it was time to order, my husband very clearly told the waiter which pasta he wanted and even showed him a picture of the item on the menu. The waiter looked at it and agreed. My food came out, but my husband's food never did. We eventually found out that his order was never even put in. What made it worse was when the waiter came out saying, "Oh my God, I thought you said you didn't want it." Everyone at the table looked at him completely confused because my husband had literally told him what he wanted and showed him the menu item. Instead of simply acknowledging the mistake and fixing it, we were left waiting. On top of that, trying to get anyone's attention was nearly impossible. We had to repeatedly try to get someone's attention just to get basic service. Then there was another issue with the entrance fee. My sister-in-law had messages showing that we were told that if we ate at the restaurant, we would no longer have to pay the entrance fee. We showed those messages to the woman handling the wristbands, but instead of looking into it or speaking to someone who could clarify the situation, she simply said, "I don't know, you have to pay." No attempt was made to investigate or resolve the issue. After everything that happened, they still added a tip to the bill, despite the extremely poor service we received. Overall, this was one of the most frustrating restaurant experiences I've had. Poor communication, poor service, lack of organization, and no effort to make things right. I definitely will not be recommending this place to anyone, and we will not be returning.

The service was impeccable--everyone was attentive, friendly, and made the whole experience feel special. We had to get the Michelada Oysters again because I had been craving them since our last visit. They were just as amazing as I remembered--fresh, perfectly seasoned, and seriously addicting. For Dine LA, I started with the Tostada Campechana, which was like an elevated ceviche with scallops, tuna, yellowtail, avocado, and a citrus sesame sauce. Everything tasted super fresh and the citrus gave it the perfect balance. The Bone Marrow Mole was rich, flavorful, and came with a generous portion and toast. For my main course, I had the skirt steak, which was cooked perfectly--tender, well-seasoned, and delicious with the green sauce. The homemade tortillas were amazing too. We ended with the Dulce de Leche Panna Cotta, and it was the perfect finish--creamy, smooth, not overly sweet, and so good we practically cleaned the plate. Amazing food, great portions, beautiful atmosphere, and excellent service. Ka'teen definitely delivered. I would absolutely come back again.

My parents were visiting from Florida for their annual family trip, and I wanted to treat them to a…read moremeal and introduce them to the diverse food scene in Los Angeles. Since they live in an area with limited Mexican cuisine, I chose Guelaguetza, a James Beard Award-winning restaurant with authentic Oaxacan recipes, something completely new to them. They were excited to try something different, as they don't have many Mexican food options where they live, and I wanted to expand their culinary horizons. We were greeted with complimentary chips - some were drizzled with mole and Oaxacan cheese, which we requested refills of, and others were served with red and green salsas. The green salsa had a nice kick to it. For our meal, we shared two large dishes: the Festival de Moles ($53.00) and the Tlayuda Guelaguetza ($27.50). The Tlayuda Guelaguetza, which is also called a Mexican pizza, was layered with bean and chicharron spread, queso fresco, cabbage, quesillo, beef tasajo, pork Cecina, and pork chorizo. While I've always wanted to try Tlayuda, this one wasn't good, and I wouldn't recommend it. The pork chorizo was particularly unappetizing, and neither my parents nor I enjoyed the dish, feeling it was a waste of money. The Festival de Moles ($53.00) featured four individual moles - negro, rojo, coloradito, and estofado - with a choice of shredded chicken breast or pork spare ribs. We opted for a mix of both and found this dish to be excellent, and we would definitely order it again. They were very impressed with the moles, and enjoyed them for the first time. The only minor complaint was a lack of tortillas to dip with the mole, though they did provide some rice. We ordered several drinks, which significantly increased the bill. I was surprised we spent $200 on lunch for three people with only two meals. I started with the Pasion De Oaxaca ($16.00), a mezcal, tequila, passion fruit, grapefruit juice, and tajin cocktail that was excellent, perfectly balanced, strong, but not too sweet. For my second drink, I had the refreshing Aquas Frescas - Jamaica ($6), which was perfect after my meal. I even took it to go, and they kindly provided a cup. My dad ended up taking it, as he needed it with his medication (they're old!). My parents, who were trying mole for the first time, were very impressed and really enjoyed it. Our only minor complaint was the lack of tortillas to dip in the mole, although they did provide some rice. The food took a little longer to come out, even though the restaurant wasn't busy. I imagine this type of cuisine is labor-intensive, and you can't rush the cooking time for mole. You just have to trust the process! We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at Guelaguetza Restaurante and will definitely be back. I can see why they're a James Beard Award-winning restaurant; you can get authentic Oaxacan flavors in LA! We're lucky to live here.

Thankfully, we were able to grab a couch and everyone was super friendly and sweet. We ordered some signature cocktails off the menu and as the night went on, we ordered some tequila shots as well.

We came here for my friend's birthday and her steak was perfectly cooked and delicious. The pulque bread with miso butter and the guac were also delicious appetizers. Those were the 3 best dishes of the night. We also shared the crab bunuelos, the cochinita sopes, and the pulpo tacos. Sopes are my favorite Mexican dish, but these ones were too difficult to cut through/bite through. The pulpo taco, we could mostly taste the tortilla, the pulpo didn't shine through. And the bunuelos were fine, but not something super memorable. One of my friends had the duck emolada, and I had the branzino. As I mentioned, the birthday girl got the steak and that was delicious. But my other friend was really let down by his emolada which he has been wanting to try forever. My branzino was well cooked, the green sauce was pretty good. But the tomatillo greens salad on the dish was possibly one of the worst things I've ever eaten. And I love bitter, and I love greens.... But this was next level where I involuntarily made a sour puss face with each bite. For dessert we had the chocolate cake with cafe de Olla which was moist and good. We also got the pulque with the prickly pear, which was veryyyyyy sweet and none of us cared for that much. (Even tho I usually love prickly pear desserts) The service was nice, no one dropped the ball, but nothing stood out either. The restaurant itself is beautiful but it is open air (with no AC) so it was very hot since we have had so many hot days here in LA. We took a Lyft so we didn't have to worry about parking.
