“Figured I would write a review after eating here multiple times a week for a couple years. These are the best tacos in Los Angeles. Always high quality and always delicious. The staff is always excellent and everything is always positive. Wishing them all nothing but the best!“
“Corn Man is my go-to spot in LA for satisfying late-night cravings with absolutely delicious corn on the cob. However, the surrounding neighborhood can be a bit sketchy, making it feel unsafe to hang around waiting for your order since there's only one corn man working.Despite encountering a few arguments with random passersby staring at me, the corn here is undeniably tasty and a definite must-try for those late-night munchies.“
“Everything we tried here is beyond delicious and we tried almost everything on the menu! I wish I had more stomach space because the flavor is top notch. The Bulgogi taco is different from anything I've ever tried but the meat just melts in your mouth! The asada and pollo were delicious but the al pastor, shrimp and birria tacos were the stars of the show for us! Perfect flavor combinations and definitely not your average taco- and this is coming from a Mexicana lol. The service is also amazing. The guys are ready to serve with a friendly smile and offer suggestions. The space is clean and offers ample seating. Overall we loved it here and will definitely be back next time we're in the area!“
“We are from Brazil and happened to find this amazing spot in LA. Absolutely worth the wait. We suggest that you try both corn in the cup and in the spike. I’m pretty sure we will have dreams about it. Super tasty, soft and crunchy at the same time… thank you, Corn Man!“
“Hands down, the best, best birria tacos I've ever had!!I've been eyeing this taco truck for the longest time when I was looking for birria tacos. I missed the chance to go from the last time I came by. Many other taco vendors also recommend this truck for goat birria tacos.We got some goat birria quesatacos, labio taco dorados, which were lips, asada vampiro, and of course, gotta get consome. Not many places have goat birria, and most of the time, they tend to be too dry. Those quesatacos were super tender, juicy, cheesy, and packed with tons of spices and flavors. Dipping in the beefy, hardy consome, game over. I've never seen beef lips before, so I gotta give a try. It got the texture of beef tongue, also quite delicious. Like any other taco trucks and vendors, service is always impeccable. Everyone is very friendly and supportive to other vendors. I said it once, and I'm gonna say it again. The best birria tacos!!!“
“I love coming to this little cart for some dessert. I really have enjoyed everything from the honey nut pancakes to my favorite cheese tayaki. I recently got the sweet potato cheese pancakes and yet again delicious! Staff is always very friendly too.“
“All I have to say is this: There is another Mediterranean/Mexican fusion in another part of East Los. THAT place gets a .25 of a star compared to this gem. Do yourself a favor. If you want that Mex/Med fusion you HAVE to come here. I had the Kebab burrito w/chile rojo and it's been on my mind ever since.“
“Their tacos were so filling and delicious. I ordered a few tacos to start off with and shared it between my family and I. My kids really enjoyed the tacos and we had to get more. The atmosphere felt lovely and pleasant. My kids always tell me to come back whenever we're in LA. Thank “

“Vegetarian options: No vegan or vegetarian options here. It's all about the meat!! Mulitas, tacos, tortas and more!Parking: Parking is limited to the street and it is always busy.Wheelchair accessibility: It's on the sidewalk so you could say it is handicap accessible.“
“I returned to try the menudo and it was absolutely delicious. The juice was flavorful and full bodied. The panza was soft and delectable. The meat was generous (but not cut small enough! I had to tear pieces off bc of how huge the meat slices are and juice would splash on my shirt, or I would burn my mouth and fingers trying to rip the meat apart with my teeth and fingers.) Other than the pain and looking like a doofus because I had to tuck napkins into my collar, It was worth it! Also, their tortillas are SO DAMN GOOD. She makes them by hand the flavor is stellar. I would like to bring my family here for menudo breakfast one day!“
“I love to come to this taco stand; the service is always prompt and the owners are very kind. The food is absolutely incredible and they usually have an Agua Fresca (horchata most of the time) and it's always delicious as well. They accept cash or zelle!“

“First time customer, but will be coming back again soon and often most likely. Ordered the pork (chicharron) quesadilla. There was also a chicken and squash blossom option. The tortillas are blue corn, fresh pressed for each order. The cart is small, but efficiently laid out. Napkins, ice cold drinks and plenty of toppings/salsa options available. There was a line, but I didn’t have to wait long. It was great that she takes either cards or cash too. Highly recommend!“
“Food 11/10 and the Service 1000/10!!We are a german couple on vacation in LA. We saw the Cena in the Internet and went for it. We had no Internet and couldn‘t Order so we were staying outside and didn‘t know what to do. Then This beautiful Lady appears, got us in and made us super delicious food. She was wonderful Friendly and helpfull. THANKS AGAIN!!“
“(Translated by Google) Rich carnitas tacos, very well served, well filled, the extra a golden tortilla to accompany it.(Original)Ricos tacos de carnitas, muy bien servidos bien llenitos, el extra una tortilla doradita de acompañamiento.Parking: Es una lonchera, las mesas y sillas están sobre la banqueta por lo tanto el estacionamiento es en la callé, donde se pueda.“
“These are addictive, juicy tacos that when you eat, you have to hit the pause button on any other activity going on...they are just that mind blowing. Afterwards you'll be thinking, when can my stomach take some more because they're so overpowering you won't be able to shake them from your mind. A modest tent set up outside a convenience store, next to the "Mirror Motel" along a backstreet in the Watts neighborhood converts into a carnival of flavor at the weekends when Mathew starts cooking beef asada and birria stew and toasts up his tacos on the hot iron griddle. Here is the bonafide, authentic people's kitchen taste of Los Angeles, far from some gentrified, corporate chain, cookie cutter, sterile offering in Beverly Hills. These tacos filled with stew represent the way food is served at home, not a smorgasboard of menu choices, just a couple of things done well, consistently, and dependably. They represent the taste of the working masses of Los Angeles whose bloodlines in this city are long while weaving in influences from various Mexican regions. It doesn't get more rustic and truly delightful than Mathew's tent stall where the corn tortillas are dipped in stew juices to soften them up before they are toasted on the griddle. His vat of birria conjures up the warmth and depth of roasted onions, cinammon, chiles, and slow cooked meat that falls into shreds off your fingers as you slurp up the juices. At $1.50 a pop Mathew's tacos are overflowing with complex flavor and are sensually overwhelming. You can tease the palate with fresh radishes and a suite of fresh tomato salsas, pickled onion and chilli sauces set out to garnish the tacos. The backstreet experience is indelible from your mind. I'm dreaming of going back next weekend. Please bear in mind he's only open on Friday, Saturday and Sunday as I understand it.“
“Best tacos al Vapor, estilo Jalisco never disappoint me. Super clean meat no fat or nerve. Super safe for small kids since meat melts in your mouth easily.Kid-friendliness: Super soft meat with no bones or hard Meats easi for kids to bite and swallow“
“Bomb Tacos Burritos and Tortas you name it super filled with charbroiled meat over filled I might say all kinds of toppings fresh refreshers you can find them on the very corner called Vanessa's Tijuana Tacos give them a try you will love it just as much as my family did“
“The flavors were bright and refreshing, a perfect start to the meal. For my main course, I opted for the shrimp tacos, and they did not disappoint - perfectly seasoned shrimp nestled in warm tortillas and topped with fresh salsa and creamy avocado. Great place!“
“(Translated by Google) My family and I are clients of this taqueria. Everything they sell is very tasty and the people serve them very kindly. May God always bless this business and its owners ???(Original)Mi familia y yo somos.clientes de esta taqueria es bien sabroso todo lo que venden y las personas atienden muy amables que Dios bendiga siempre este negocio y sus propietarios ???“
“Found this place on accident because my friend and I were looking for a quick bite! But now I come here every time I am in the area.I always get their tacos, especially their super and vampiro too. The one I can't ever get out of my mind was their special of the week --- the PORK BELLY TACO. omg it was to die for. you definitely need to catch it on the day they have it, they dont always have this. All their meats have so much flavor and so juicy. Their salsas always plentiful and deliciousI really enjoyed their mango passionfruit agua Fresca too, but they dont always have it either ):This establishment is small. It is only an order window with a parking lot and a few tables (less than 5). It is best to order to-go and bring it home or I usually can't wait and have to eat in the car!!must come back soon!“
“The menudo was really good. My bf got a chicken quesadilla he said it was good as well. Parking is kind of hard to get but I think you can park in back of the canopy not sure though. Definitely going back again. The enchiladas smelled really yummy didn't get any we'll get some next time.“
“Best tacos in the world . I recommend this place . I've tried so many different tacos de birria and there's nothing compare to this spot. I come here almost every weekend that's why I don't lose weight :( I'm a fan of birria but trust you'll love this spot !“
“Had an Asada,and Carnitas taco. Nice portions, great taste. Simple street style taco, very flavorful and fresh. Salsas were perfect and savory, they compliment your tacos nicely. Splash of lime, and Rabanos for a ln after bite crunch. And you're now in Taco heaven. Good work Taco Azteca, you're doing it right. No skimping. Will definitely be back. ??“
“Conveniently located next to the freeway entrance which was perfect for us to drop by before we leave LA.They have tables and water for the guests, and even a security to provide safety. They offer a variety of condiments and toppings.It was a great way to wrap up the night!“
“I got here by chance on a Saturday night, the parking lot was full and the line was long, so I assumed it was good. I am not lying when I tell you that these are probably the BEST TACOS I’ve ever had in my life. If you want to have the real street food experience in LA, this is absolutely it. Its opened every day from 1PM to 2AM. • Llegué aquí por casualidad un sábado por la noche, el parqueadero estaba lleno y la fila era larga, así que asumí que era bueno. No estoy mintiendo cuando te digo que estos son probablemente los MEJORES TACOS que he probado en mi vida. Si quieres tener la verdadera experiencia de comida callejera en Los Ángeles, esto es. Está abierto todos los días de 1PM a 2AM.“
“MÉXICO (Guerrero) ??Excerpt from Eat the World Los Angeles:While you are standing in line waiting for your chance to order this goat and lamb barbacoa, listen to the conversations of others around you, or if you do not speak Spanish start one yourself. It becomes clear that the vast majority of customers here live in nearby neighborhoods of South and Southeast Los Angeles but originally come from Guerrero.The food and adobo-rubbed Guerrero-style barbacoa they remember is best represented here under the large yellow tent. The stand has lived for over a decade, the tent was once white and much smaller, but now the current one becomes a sight that makes your heart speed up in anticipation of the upcoming meal. Barbacoa can be thrown on any menu, usually resulting in a plate of dry meat laid in front of you, but it takes someone talented and willing to put in the hard work of properly cleaning an animal and cooking it overnight to make the best.After finishing you can start to appreciate the origin stories of this food and the family that serves it. On the business card, a beautiful scene of Taxco shows the main cathedral and the mountains that surround the Northern Guerrero town. It is quite a bit closer to Mexico City than it is to the coastal Guerrero city of Acapulco, and shares a culture similar to the mountainous towns of nearby Estado de México, Morelos, and Puebla, places that have all seen quite a dramatic loss of families that have moved their lives north. It is an honor and a privilege to share meals with those that have come to Los Angeles, and the amazing yellow-tented food stand that fulfills their cravings from back home.“
“We were looking for a late night snack, and this place hit the spot! I ordered the pastor and cabeza tacos for to go with no cilantro, onions only. My two tacos were wrapped and kept warm in a foil package.When I got back, I realized they gave me chorizo and buche, and a lot of cilantro. I removed the cilantro, not a big deal. The chorizo, at least I think it was chorizo, wasn't too dry and it was flavorful. There were also chunks of fat (?) in it. The buche was salty...and tasted like buche. I liked their salsas and felt it complemented the meats well.Unfortunately I didn't get either of the meats I wanted to try. At $2.50 per taco, I guess I'll just have to go back to order them again.“
“3.5 stars. i was driving home on a Sunday night at around 1800 and saw this spot as I was headed towards the highway. Driving through Hunting Park really makes you hungry for Mexican food...:) Stopped and got 4 different tacos. The extra stuff you can add to your tacos are awesome. The grilled onions, the charro beans, the pickled onions, the radishes, the cucumber, and I think there was maybe two other things. Then there's 3 salsas and lime to top it all off. It's a lot. My tacos were loaded. I also got a pineapple fresca. I honestly think I loaded too much on my tacos and couldn't taste the meat as much. I got the pastor, chorizo, buche, and something else-it was sirloin steak. All of it's not bad but I liked the chorizo the most. There's maybe four other meats. Again, I think I overloaded my tacos and should def go back give this place another shot. But this is a cool spot for street tacos. Total cost was $12 though, which is a little pricey.“
“Absolutely adore this gem! Discovered it on TikTok, and it exceeded my expectations. Impeccable and swift customer service. The tostadas de deshebrada were a delightful experience - perfectly proportioned, reasonably priced, and the juicy shredded meat was seasoned to perfection. Fresh toppings elevated the dish. This stand has a good range of hours but I still managed to get there near closing. Regret not trying the enchiladas during my late visit, but I'm eagerly planning a return for that treat.“
“Literally the best taco stand in Whittier ! Everything they have is delicious !!!! The meat is juicy and full of flavor. I either get a Torta de asada con todo or a burrito de asada con todo! FYI They are also super generous and stuff the tacos, tortas and burritos with meat ! So it's perfect for sharing with someone else If you are thinking about coming here... don't think twice lol I 100% recommend this spot !! They also super nice !!! The young guy and the older man are very sweet and welcoming.“
“The size of their dim sum is double of other restaurants or take outs. Cash only keeps their prices reasonable. They also offer noodle dishes but I come specifically for the shumai and har-gow.Parking: Parking gets tight during busy hours but service is fast, depending on ur order so people vacate the parking spots frequently.“
