“The best food!! 100% recommended totally worth the wait in line! Food is amazing!!”

“Food was delicious! Place near me closed a while ago and I hadn’t found a place in a while with GOOD Salvadorian food. This place hit the spot! Rosy was very nice and friendly, she made the experience better! I will be back soon!”

“I finally remembered to try this place. It didn't disappoint. Everything was made fresh to order. The veggies were crisp and tender. The shrimp were nice and plump. The Tom Yum was zesty and flaming.
It's a nice place for friends, family, or a casual date. It's not fancy. You order before you're seated.
The prices are just about the same as most Thai restaurants. Which bothered me a little since we had to stand in line to order.
But overall, it's a great place! It was yummy! It's was peaceful.”

“definitivamente muy sabrosos los tacos los mire en tic toc y dije que cuando fuera a las angeles iría con mi familia a probarlos y la verdad quedamos fascinados,,,no entiendo como muchas loncheras o restaurantes venden Tacos de cabeza muy caros pero además de caros malicimos,,,la verdad se los recomiendo,,,,o y lleguen temprano porque se acaban muy rápido.”

“This place is great and something I've been wanting to try for awhile and glad I didn't finally.

I had their barbacoa tacos guisados which was very tender and with cheese added. Their salsa bar added a lot to flavor to it and the barbacoa was very tender. Their chikali taco comes with beans and guacamole and I got it with carne asada. The asada was charred very well and seasoned very well also. The beans went well with it and were not soggy. The staff was very nice and helpful in describing what was available, popular, recommended and what they thought it should have.

There's some seating next to their shop which is convenient. Their agua frescas was very good also according to my friend. It was his favorite place so far when I took him the multiple taco joints in east LA.

I'd come back here to try their breakfast/chorizo items”

“100% recommended, the fish tacos are the best in Los Angeles served with a unique green sauce, and not to mention their Cajun shrimp, a delight, so if you want to try something super delicious, visit Maye Mariscos”

“a bit pricey (at least here in downey) but the food is worth it!!”

“The food es excelente!! My first time buying there, definitely worth it!!”

“The typical tacos 🌮🌮🌮 from the towns of Jalisco and all of Mexico..... And their different meats and sauces..... Very Good... 100%

Dietary restrictions: If you're on a diet, don't go... You're going to break it there... 🤣🤣”

“Las mejores cemitas y un buen servicio”

“Deliciously authentic Japanese food joint, owned and operated by a talented Japanese chef. I’ve been eating here for years with my family! This professional chef has personally made every sushi roll by hand for as long as I can remember. 10/10 Highly recommend. Truly a hidden gem in East Los Angeles.”

“Went in, ordering was a breeze. Got the 2 Hands Dog & the Potato Dog, both beef sausage. Both were excellent. Fruit slushy hit the spot, especially cuz it's was hot. Can't wait to go back.....”

“If you're looking for big gigantic Donuts from Texas this is the place to go Donuts refresh and delicious tried the glaze with sprinkles my daughter stopped they had stepped into Texas”

“I grew-up in Monterey Park, but have lived in New Hampshire for the last 17 years. My first stop whenever I’m in town visiting my family, La Azteca is Always my first breakfast stop. Love, love, LOVE their chorizo & egg burritos and their homemade flour tortilla’s.”

“I remember when the burgers were six dollars.. but like everything else, places are giving you bigger portions for a higher cost. That's exactly what you get here, you will have left over sides but no entree to pair it with fyi. Other than that all food is savory and well balanced. It brings a home-cooked feeling.”

“Absolutely amazing products that help me and my family live a healthy lifestyle. The shakes taste amazing, they are thick and creamy and very very satisfying, just like the bars. In general. The coach is always available to give advice, support and motivate. This is not a diet, but a nutritional lifestyle change. It gives me a lot of energy to start the day and exercise again and despite everything I sleep very well. It can be used to control weight and improve muscle mass. I highly recommend it. This location is very clean and the energy is just welcoming. I had a great experience with Herbalife.”

“yo a ojos cerrados los recomiendo. las muchachas muy amables, Lo qe buscas encuentran. tienen buenisimas clases de decoracion”

“Some of the best tacos and special treats in east LA. There asada nachos and burritos smack. The salsa here the one of the reasons why this place is amazing it’s nice and spicy as it’s suppose to be.

Thank you Jason for always keeping the salsa nice and spicy 1# reason I come here is for the amazing salsa”

“Been looking forward to seeing this place open!This was the formerly the location of Nick's Drive Thru, which closed during COVID and never re-opened.Note that "Hercules Burgers" and "Original Hercules Burgers" are unrelated businesses. This is Original Hercules Burgers.The Owner says they will be opening SOON!”

“Bomb! Tacos you have to try them.”

“I've been coming here for a while for a few specific things:

-Vietnamese Iced Coffee, it's consistently good. Never had a bad one from here. At 5$ it's a pretty good deal.

-Ham & Cheese Croissant is always solid too whether it's cold or warmed up. Again, never had a bad one from here. I believe it's about 4/4.50$.

-Their filled donuts (Bavarian & Raspberry) are so good too! $1.75 each if I recall correctly.

Service is always great too, I don't know the dudes name (I catch him working mornings), but he's always friendly and efficient at getting your order ready even when he's got a few people in the shop.”

“Service is always good when I’m here. The younger lady is very attentive. I’ve only tried their sandwiches, yogurt and iced coffee. They’re all pretty good.”

“The fried pickles were really good! We loved them! All of our meals were really good. The chicken was tasty. The BLT had a good amount of crispy bacon crisp lettuce. The garlic aioli was yummy. The staff was friendly and helpful. We would definitely return.”

“Very delicious the mangoneada and fruit bionico 😋😋🤫”

“Try the Al Pastor Tacos! They are amazing and on top of that they have some bomb as Horchata. This place is my "to go to" late at night when no one can decide what to eat. Everyone is always on board with Los Pepes.”

“😋😋😋😋 todo muy ricos tacos de tortilla recién hecha”

“Came across this truck accidentally; was actually going to another spot to get some cemitas which was actually gonna be my first time ever having one. Super glad I came across this spot. Had two milanesa de pollo cemitas one with Chipotle and one with Jalapeño also one with queso fresco and one with quesillo.Food was a 10/10 for me but if I gave y'all a recommendation I would say get the cemita with Jalapeño and quesillo and pro tip!!! (Like if I'm a pro it was my first time here) Make sure you request they add onions!! You won't regret it they're like pickled onion and man does it bring the cemita together. Bread was incredible, chicken milanesa was incredible not too thin not too dry and they're generous with everything else too.. good amount of onions perfect amount of Jalapeños ton of avocado and a good amount of quesillo. The staff seems like they're just there to do their job which I ain't particularly mad about really. Not rude not nice just there. I would also recommend getting one green sauce and one red on the side.. very aromatic sauces pair perfectly with the cemita. Definitely coming back here. Definitely recommending to friends. Also sorry I didn't get a picture of both cemitas. Destroyed the Jalapeño and quesillo one.”

“delicious chicken mole with double rice 😋😋😋”

“The place is so beautifully decorated while the idea of adding pictures to foam is so creative and fun. The creativity also doesn’t mean there was a lack in taste. The coffee was also soooo good. 10/10”

“The food is good and the staff is always friendly”

“Good food, open 24/7, just tried for the first time definitely going to be my new late night spot. My food also came with complimentary chips on the side and my quesadilla came with guacamole sour cream and melty cheese! Love it!”

“unos tacos muy buenos tenía días de ir a probar esos ricos tacos y justo haora fui y muy buenos muy bien atendidos ..con una rapidez para servirle a la gente gracias ((tacos don cuco ..))”

“I was driving by and seen this Taco spot and the outside looks very nice which caught my eyes, so I stop in to check-out the place.

The staff here was very nice and very helpful. I ordered 3 tacos and a bottle water. I got to admit, the Tacos was the boom!

The place was super clean, fresh and all the tables where clean.

Thank you for the amazing Taco's see you soon.

“Just updating my review because the chicken I got today was so beautiful I took a picture & posted it...my only gripe with this place is sometimes the coating is not on all the chicken today it was all a uniform wonderful color all over I would definitely kiss the cook”

“Bomb! Tacos you have to try them.”

“Food was delicious. The chili fries are the bomb hands down. Watch out The Hat. You lost me as a customer 😉😉”

“I used to live in HP. My three kids were born here. I haven been here for more than 20 years. I decided to go and explore the city just like used to. So I went to eat at El Gallo Giro and then I went to get a coffee at Cafe My Familia. One or one and half hour later my car was tow. My tacos costed me $ 500.00. I'm not coming back for sure.”
