Suggestions for Dining and Drinking near Boyle Heights, Los Angeles

Yali C. • August 23, 2010Best campechanas, shrimp tacos and beer's preparadas! ideal spot for hangovers (except for the tamboraso #annoying!!)

Josh C. • July 28, 2011I've been eating here for over 15 years. I live right on top of the hill on 7th and this truck is the best of emm all. Love there burritos and for the price you can't go wrong.

Chris L. • March 24, 2014Taco Dorado ($2): deep-fried corn tortilla filled with shrimp, vegetables and tomato, a topping of creamy, fresh-shucked avocado and a mild slurry of tomato and raw white onion.

Thirsty J. • March 21, 2015They will blend any of the specialty coffees, enjoying Cafe Oaxaca blended (espresso, mexican chocolate, steamed milk)

Carolina M. • February 10, 2013The best cheese and green chile tamales, as well as tacos de carnitas (order with everything!). They also sell their spongy hand-made corn tortillas to go.

Adrian P. • March 19, 2015Just discovered that this Guisado's is BYOB, so be sure to bring a six pack. You can't go wrong with any taco on the menu. Try the sampler if you're not sure. Also Horchata + Cold Brew = delicious.

Lucky Peach • January 18, 2017Tire Shop Taqueria is a magical taco assembly line of grills and folding tables set up under two pop-up tents. The tortillas are pressed to order, and all the meat is grilled right in front of you.

Emily W. • February 17, 2017Do yourself a favor and order the vibrant and fresh tostada with shrimp (camarones) ceviche. Top it off with a squeeze of lime and a dash of hot sauce.

Jonathan D. • July 1, 2013Better than Lilliana's. The best tamales in East L.A. Their pan dulce is pretty good too.

Salvador • August 6, 2014The Combination Burrito with a side of Taquitos are awesome. My family has been coming here since the 60's when they opened and the burritos have been the best ever since.

David H. • October 16, 2022Delicious! So happy they finally have a location on the west side. Make a stop here and at Mariscos Jalisco parked right next door.

Oshi Y. • April 4, 2012Vegan pizza with daiya cheese! And gardein (non gmo soy) and field roast chicken

Winnie K. • April 13, 2019Fave: quesotaco, vampiro; Birria, hot oil

Kimberly N. • January 27, 2014Best place to visit! Mariachi is awesome, raspados, tostilocos, and all their goodies are yummy. :)

Brian I. • January 19, 2019Tortas are a decent size with lots of flavor! It can get messy so don’t be afraid of using a utensil. Parking is limited but worth the efforts

Doug d. • May 16, 2017Their pork shoulder carnitas are spectacular! The mixed meat taco was fun to try, but for me, the gelatinous skin and squishy pork belly were a little texturally challenging.

Offbeat L.A. • January 28, 2016Opened 1956. Cozy diner with booths. It’s the last remaining Japanese restaurant in L.A.’s first Little Tokyo, part of Boyle Heights.

Victor S. • March 21, 2013$1 tacos and theyre amazing! Best tacos truck.

Akimba • June 11, 2014Huge portions. $3 for shrimp taco ;)

Cyndie T. • February 8, 2015Good quality/cheap tacos! The tacos here in LA are better than the ones I've tried in San Diego! Can't wait to come back for more!

Michael I. • November 15, 2012The best pan dulce in all of Los Angeles. Made fresh 2 times a day. If you have never had it your missing out.

Salvador • May 11, 2014The carnitas, sangre, and tacos de sesos (fried pork, blood, and beef brain tacos) are the best here!
