Martin-Jesse Lim: Their tortillas are like no other! The Chicken Tinga & Bistek Steak tacos are to die for. If you're looking for some heat, Chilies Torreados has the punch to make you cry.
Walter: The chorizo taco is my favorite one. The quesadilla with chorizo is also a must.
GQ Magazine: $6.99 taco sampler is perhaps the best food deal in all of L.A. You get six mini tacos filled with Guisados amazing stewed meats, each nestle on hand-made tortillas filled and beautifully garnished.

Jeannette S.: I tried the Taco Sampler, 6 mini-tacos of the chef's choice, and it was so yummy! They made with hand made mini-tortillas and the sauces are incredible...definitely not your typical taqueria!
Sukhjeet: new place that opened about a yr ago, bare bones but good, try taco sampler plate, home-made tortillas, there was a mole taco with crema and pumpkin seeds that i loved, close drive from med center
Daniel L.: One of the fiercest tacos you'll ever eat - the Chiles Toreados, featuring five varieties of roasted chiles: green Thai, Fresno, jalapeño, Serrano and habanero peppers.

Frank Brito: Great tacos de asada but even better Al Pastor w/pineapple. You also have to try the champurrado
Jeff W: Pineapple on the el pastor tacos were a great unique twist! The asada tacos were spiced well and they were not cheap on the meat
Joseph C: Leo's Pastor Spit Chef uses no gloves. The Taco Stand across the way on San Vicente, Pico & Tremaine does. Both are great and use deliscious, fresh meat & fresh pineapple slices. Best 2 Tacos around👍

Josef Szotten: Lovely tacos. No frills though. Just tacos straight up and down. Go for the Mahi Mahi tacos. You won't be disappointed.

Tasting Table: Try the shrimp taco dorados which are fried, leaving the tortillas crisp-edged and wonderfully crunchy: Read more.
Daniel Kang: The fried shrimp tacos are smothered with good stuff and taste divine. Only $1.75 each so order at least 5 a person. Get a refreshing tostada to mix it up. People are super friendly.
Serious Eats: While the shrimp tacos get (and deserve) a lot of love, the humble ceviches, tart with lime, are worth checking out as well.
Trevor Hill: Quick, casual, and fresh. Taco Tuesday's 2-for-1 tacos applies to the 2 taco, 2 side, 1drink combo as well
Łukasz Korecki: This is a semi hidden gem in Venice. Tacos are excellent
Globetrottergirls Dani: The Taco Tuesday deal is unbeatable- $2 per taco.. and they’re delicious! Plus happy hour all night long ($5 margaritas, $3 beers, $6 wine).

Amy Wakeham: Carne Guisada Puffy Tacos and the Cheesy Grit Taquitos were fabulous!!
Michelle Sherman: Everything looks amazing. My first time - I tried the pesto cauliflower, sweet potato with sea salt and butter, and the puffy taco. Make a reservation though because it was packed
Fodor's Travel: Bar Ama's Super Nacho Hour, Saturdays from 3 pm to 5:30 pm, is cheap and delish, offering chorizo nachos, guacamole, and fish tacos, along with the restaurant's full cocktail menu.

Anastasia McGee: Carnitas de Pato - Duck Tacos - are the best. Try them with a side of rice or salad. For dessert or breakfast, nothing beats Azteca Hot Chocolate. Read more.
RobTak: Wouldn't expect it, but the turkey tacos are great! Mayan Feast special (Duck Carnitas & Shredded Venison) is more than enough for two and super tasty.
Eric Lane: I like their hibiscus (flor de jamaica) tacos best, followed closely by the shrimp, duck carnitas, fried potato, and cochinita pibil tacos. Be adventurous: nearly everything on the menu is terrific.
ams: I would normally think twice about getting seafood from a truck, but the shrimp tacos are fantastic. If you prefer, the veggie tacos are equally delicious
Patrick Calderone: Tacos Al Pastor are the best in LA
Edward Hutchinson: Cerviche tostada, pork tacos are the best!!

Hanh N: These ladies make the BEST vegetarian tacos. You can also order a side of the mexican rice, it's delicious on its own.
Eric Oxenberg: The meat tacos are good, but the veggie taco with spanish rice, homemade beans and cheese is exceptional!
Noah Snyder: Best Taco truck in Los Angeles by far. I highly recommend getting mulitas or tacos of the carnitas, suadero, or carne asada variety.
