Mexican Restaurants near Universal City

“Fresh food 100% recommend“

“Simplified order taking using a touch terminal.The staff is pleasant and the atmosphere good insofar as it is a food court. Everyone eats what they want.Small flat on the prices which are higher than other Taco Bell. This is undoubtedly linked to the mass presence of tourists, the restaurant being in the Citywalk of Universal Studios.“

“Everyone listen up….order a fountain drink here….the bang for your BUCK and the service….the server Ace was so caring he makes your drink as your like it from the fountain….with CRUSHED ice…..yes CRUSHED ice and he knows he asks you … how much ice would you like ….

“Absolutely delicious food. Chulita Bowl was fantastic, hibiscus mimosa and latte were so good. Friendly staff too! Thanks for the wonderful brunch. 🙏🧜🏽‍♀️“

“Just tried MIRATE Restaurant the food was amazing! Definitely worth checking out if you love great flavors.“

“Delicious and healthy food!“

“Seafood like you have never tried. We shared tasted from each section of the menu . Soft Shell Crab Taco, Yellowtail/Dragonfruit/Ceviche, a Scallop Tostada. Absolutely Loved it ALL. Then ended with the Branzino rice/beans and 3 delightful sauces shared for 4. It was perfect. Also, tried a unique Old Fashioned cocktail made with a delicate smoky Mezcal like I have never tasted.“

“Worth the hype! The Baja fish tacos were the best I’ve ever had, the grilled branzino was fresh and flavorful, and the sparkling lemonade was perfectly refreshing. Affordable and delicious!“

“Food was delicious! We tried the molotes de plátano, which are three small, crispy banana fritters filled with cheese, served on top of a rich, flavorful mole sauce. We also enjoyed tacos de suadero, tender brisket cooked to perfection; Taco Sonia, a specialty with beef rib, chorizo, potatoes, and cactus; and flor de calabaza quesadilla, a savory quesadilla filled with tender squash blossoms and cheese. Additionally, there was a daily special: taco de huitlacoche, made with truffle-like corn fungus that has a smoky, earthy flavor. All dishes were served with warm, homemade tortillas made from fresh maize dough, enhancing the authentic taste.“

“This Guisados on Sunset is the perfect spot to hit a hungry stomach! Free parking. EZ to find. Safe neighborhood. Now for the food… AMAZING! All tacos are delicious. Try the sampler. Gives you 6 mini tacos with home made tortillas. For about $11. ? even my kids who are picky loved this place! Service was awesome. We were still craving another sampler (we all shared some) and the server who brought our food said that there was no need to wait in line again… she took our additional order from our table, and brought the credit card reader out to us!!! Thank you! Mil Gracias !!! We will be back.

Kid-friendliness: Kids loved the food. And when they knew it was for the kids, they held off on some of the spicy salsas (on te side)“

“This amazing taco stand is set up in a parking lot with plenty of parking, making it super convenient. There are four organized stations: one for tacos, one for other items, plus a drink station and a salsa bar.

The meat was incredibly flavorful, and they serve it with onions, a grilled pepper, and a small potato. After trying several taco storefronts in the area, this stand easily tops the list.

A must-visit for taco lovers looking for great flavor. Four tacos was $11. No seating but you can sit in your car.“

“My go to pre-Dodger game hangout. The Dodger vibe is electric. Best flaming margs! The chili rellenos are seriously amazing. Crispy tacos are delicious. Portions are generous. Don’t fill up on the chips and salsa! If you sit near the bar, it’s loud. They always beat their wait time estimate so stay close after adding your name to the waitlist.“

“Had a beautiful bridal shower for 24 persons in their outdoor patio. Staff was friendly, welcoming and attentive; food was delicious and served up in generous-sized portions.“

“El chato taco has quickly become my favorite place for tacos in West LA. Their al pastor is juicy and flavorful, and I always go for the salsa verde. The portions are generous, and the tacos are reasonably priced. The place has a chill vibe, and I’ve always had good service. It’s a great spot for a quick and tasty bite“

“Wonderful place Great drinks and food“

“A friend recommended this place, and it didn’t disappoint. The carne asada tacos were full of flavor and came with freshly made salsa. The place is small but clean, and the staff checks in often without hovering. Prices are fair for the quality you get. It feels like a family-run spot that really cares about the food.“

“El gran sabor de las tortas de Neza en Los Ángeles ca.“

“An organization I’m a part of was looking for a place to gather afterwards. I reached out to multiple locations, Ian was the most responsive and excited to host us. He was accommodating to our group of ~30 people. He and the staff were so friendly and took care of orders quickly. Will definitely be back for dinner and drinks!“

“the prices aren't are not that expensive they got some good food here and good staff“

“pasamos de pasadita guiados por los reviews y nos sorprendió los mejores tacos de birria qué hemos comido. recomendamos al 100 por 100“

“Came here this morning, their cafe de Hoya is so delicious straight out of the pot. We had chilaquiles, enchiladas, birria de res and costillas de puerco. All of the food was so delicious, and completely worth the drive. Our server Ernes was so sweet, welcoming and attentive. But god I can’t not stress how good their coffee was 😩“

“It’s been one of the greatest experience at a restaurant with the sell Mexican food. He has the homemade flavor the people make you feel welcome. I highly recommend this shrimp tacos Those are fantastic. Everything is so clean. It really makes you wanting to come back“

“So glad my daughter and I stopped here. We each had breakfast burritos and they were excellent. Not only delicious, but big. We both tried the hot salsa and liked it. The atmosphere was very inviting. The service was the best I've received in a very long time. The server was very attentive and sweet. The cook came out and asked if we were enjoying our meal. He was interested in our feedback. We both decided we would be back even though we don't live in the area. It was definitely worth the effort of finding parking. Don't pass this place up
PS, the cook let us try the birria. That's what I'm ordering next time. Yum“

“I love this place. I am from Mexico and this place is just perfect, same quality of a good good restaurant in Oaxaca. The hand made Tortillas are the best in Los Angeles, loved the mole, I had the chile relleno, and it was an amazing vegetarian option for me. Service was so warm and friendly. I want to take all my friends to this place so Definitely I will be back!“

“Me encantan los tacos y burritos de cabeza.“

“Had breakfast at Tenampal and loved it! The Anthony Special is a must-try — half chilaquiles in mole and half in green sauce with eggs on top. So good! The café de olla was delicious too. The staff here are super friendly and make you feel really welcome. Definitely coming back!“

“I passed this place a dozen times. This morning I was craving some breakfast. I asked for something that was not even on the menu. A chilaquiles burrito. He said I will be happy to make it for you. It was awesome! Everything I wanted wrapped in that burrito. Great place the owner is so friendly and gracious. I highly recommend that everyone support this wonderful small business!“

“Delicious food and drinks!!!“

“Food & service is always amazing! I left my wallet there & the staff helped me retrieve it when they were closed! They went above & beyond to help me -“

“This is a great example of how LA street mexican food culture is like.

This place has one of the best pastor tacos in LA. Their meats are well seasoned and are not dry. Their salsas have great flavor and heat.

The lines can be long but it is worth the wait. You just can't beat this place when it comes to taste, quality, and price.“

“Love the people and food is amazing!!“

“This spot is soooo good! The staff had such great energy and it showed in how delicious the food was! The bread on the torta was so fresh and that corn tortilla was out of this woooorld. I also had a really great spicy marg with mezcal. I will be back.“

“One of my absolute favorite places to eat in Los Angeles!“

“This restaurant has the most delicious homemade food I tried. My wife loves the posole and I love the Menudo. We try to go there every weekend to eat some of their delicious food they make. I recommend it 100%.“

“Best mezcal margarita I’ve had. You need to get the churros for dessert - eat them first before you regret not saving space for them!!! This place is very cool and laid back. Easy to order, quick service. Fish flautas were my favorite!“

“Yummy food. Good customer service. Very nice people“

“Perhaps the best Al pastor tacos I’ve ever had, inarguably the best I’ve ever been served in a parking lot. The orange sauce is far spicier than you think it’ll be but that shouldn’t inhibit you from pouring it on. The passionfruit juice was a beautiful and refreshing way to recover from the heat! Worth going out of your way for and EXCEPTIONAL bang for your buck“

“Joselito’s is such an amazing restaurant! I had, probably, the best carnitas dinner and chips and guacamole (made fresh to order) I’ve ever experienced. A must go to whenever in the Tujunga area.“

“The best tacos in California!“

“Yo i just wanna say shout out this restaurant. I pulled up here crunk asab and my boy Andre hooked me up with literally the best food i’ve ever had like it was amazing. great atmosphere, portions, flavors, service, wow this place is just the best“
