I came here for dinner on a week night and my experience here was pretty good. I had the asada and al pastor tacos with all the toppings and they were both so good and full of meat and heat. The toppings can be spicy for some, so be warned. My favorite of the two was the all pastor which was flavorful and I did like the thinly shaved meat. It was not dry at all and was fresh. I also tried the mulita with al pastor meat and that was also soso good. Cheesy, meaty, and indulgent. The additional topping section had good variety with pickled onions, cucumbers, etc. and everything seemed pretty fresh. Unfortunately, they were pretty much out of the roasted pepper and grilled onions at the time I went. To drink, I had the horchata and that was also very delicious. It was huge, sweet, and creamy. I also loved how it was not grainy at all. A good pairing with the rich foods. They also have a good amount of seating at the stand with a long table and multiple chairs. Parking is tricky since its street parking only.

Everything tasted really fresh, bright, and limey which worked perfectly with the tacos. The citrus and acidity kept the seafood tasting light and refreshing, while the toppings and sauces added enough flavor without overpowering the main ingredients. I really enjoyed the tacos and liked how clean and fresh everything tasted. It's a nice change from heavier, more traditional taco spots, especially if you're in the mood for seafood. Overall, the setup is a little unconventional, but the food is absolutely worth it.

Also, make sure you ask them for pineapples since they did not include it until we asked. They do have them sliced up in a container by the meats. Ambience is very casual and it's a stand while eating type of situation. Service was quick.

You can tell that it's house made and I liked the chewy texture of it. However, respectfully the filling felt and tasted like bean goo. I could only really taste the refried bean flavor which was strong. It kind of meshed all the components together into a gooey filling. I got this with asada meat and the meat was kind of chewy and not so flavorful on its own. Props to the tortilla though for not spilling everything out and holding it together well, but still a bit difficult to eat. I would ask for utensils when eating this dish. The green onion garnish was unique. I wish they gave more lime wedges because that helped elevate the dish. For $13 this wasn't too bad, but I'd rather get a better burrito from a street vendor. This is a casual eats type of place with both indoor and outdoor seating and tables. They also serve alcohol and even frozen alcoholic drinks. They have a free parking lot in front, but it can be competitive to get a spot. Overall, my experience here was just okay and I would opt for other spots.

I had an absolutely fantastic experience at 5 Star Kitchen! We ordered the 10-piece Sweet Chili Wings, Fresh Cut Fries, and Chicken Tacos, and everything was outstanding. The wings were cooked to perfection, with a delicious balance of sweetness and spiciness in the chili sauce. The fresh cut fries were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, making them the perfect accompaniment to our meal. The chicken tacos were bursting with flavor, and loaded with all the toppings. They were nice and crispy. I must say, the quality of the food truly lived up to the restaurant's name. Each dish was expertly prepared with great attention to detail. The portion sizes were generous, and the presentation was impeccable. Moreover, the service was top-notch. Kim, the owner and her staff members were friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable, ensuring that our food came out piping hot. Overall, I can confidently give 5 Star Kitchen a perfect 10 out of 10 rating. From the delectable sweet chili wings to the mouthwatering chicken tacos, every bite was a delight. This restaurant has definitely set the bar high for quality and taste. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for great Los Angeles experience! read more
