    Parking can be tricky! Angel's Tijuana Taco's size is a little bigger than the street taco size. I've only tried Al Pastor with a slice of pineapple. $3.25 each. Al pastor is definitely a little more charred and more salty. It was a little too salty for me to eat more than one They accept cash Venmo and apply pay.

    Came here with some friends after the Katseye concert on my birthday cus I was craving street tacos. I ordered 3 al pastor queso tacos. My friends also ordered the same. I really love how their tortillas are made fresh and ready to order. I also never get tired of seeing a trompo. The tacos were as good as advertised. Definitely will be back the next time I come to LA. Try it out if you like. :)

    One of the best tacos stands in LA. They have amazing keto tacos, especially the pastor one. They've added more options in the last year or so like nachos. The taste hasn't been as great lately but it's still really good. Parking can be a bit tricky since you're not supposed to park right in front anymore since it's a bus lane.

    Villas Tacos at Grand Central Market is such a vibe. Their regular menu already hits every time, but the daily specials make it even better. Tried the blue tortilla pollo nachos and they were super bomb -- packed with flavor and honestly hard to stop eating. The whole atmosphere there makes the experience too, especially with all the outdoor seating and fresh air. Perfect lunch spot to just relax, eat good food, and enjoy the vibes from Downtown LA. Service is phenomenal and the workers are always smiling !

    Had such a great experience here, and their food was AMAZING! Workers were so happy and friendly making my experience enjoyable, and you can tell their food is authentic. Prices are good as well and size is reasonable, and they were quick as well. I heard their Al Pastor was good so I ordered an Al Pastor burrito with queso, and it hit the spot! I will most definitely be back, another taco stand added to my list!

    Al Pastor Loaded Baked Potato
    Nicole L.

    New fav taco stand alert?!?? My friend brought up a taco spot that had FIRE loaded baked potatoes and knew I immediately had to try Angel's Tijuanas Tacos. We ordered al pastor tacos & an al pastor loaded potato. The true star of the show is the loaded baked potato. This loaded potato was the best thing ever -- EXTREMELY generous amount of al pastor, cheese, potato, and guacamole + green sauce + red sauce + onions and cilantro. The concoction of all the toppings with the cheese and the juicy al pastor... UGH *chefs kiss* I still dream about it. The potato came with mini tortillas and we made mini potato tacos out of it... SOOO fire. We ordered one potato and it filled up 4 people, extremely worth it. I will be back v soon :')

    Potato with al pastor and asada

    Good tacos and hand made tortillas super bomb spot !!! I got the potato they load it a lot !! The service is fast and they're all super nice and helpful! It's outdoors no seating and parking can be hard sometimes but worth it!

    Al pastor taco, asada taco
    Alex L.

    You can watch them make their tortillas fresh to order! They have big serving sizes and often lots of customers. I really liked the al pastor because of the pineapple chunks. One of the better taco stands in town!

    Judy T.

    Excellent cheap tacos! Line moved very fast. Not too bad for a busy Friday night. Nice humans. The Pastor and the asada were great. I always get just the regular tacos con todo. Their guacamole is super tasty and the salsas were superb. The meat was really well flavored and lean. There's a lot of taco options in the area and this is a good choice. They have a decent size seating area as well. The Vampiros look fantastic and the burritos are huge.

    Al Pastor
    James H.

    You can smell the charcoaled meat from down the block. You start off with the fresh hand pressed tortillas and go down the assembly line. At $2.75 a taco it's a steal and the al pastor is so flavorful. The asada was really good too. Loaded up on the protein. The only thing is that you can't get any of the salsas on the side. Cash and card accepted. Street parking only

    Francesca S.

    Hands down, Angel's Tijuana Tacos serves THE BEST tacos in LA. The meat is perfectly charred and super juicy, full of flavor in every bite. Although the line was quite long, it's definitely worth it and won't disappoint. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

    My friends and I recently did an LA taco tour, visiting various storefronts to find our favorite…read morespot. Sonoratown was our first stop as it was highly recommended by my boyfriend's brother, and it did not disappoint. It immediately earned a spot in our top five favorite taco spots for carne asada in all of Southern California! The location that we went to is located in between Elysium DTLA and Perfumeria Starlux on E 8th St in downtown LA. There is only paid(?) street parking around the area that could be extremely difficult to find during work days. Because we couldn't snag a spot, my friends and I opted for takeout and didn't end up eating until about 30 minutes later. Despite the travel time, the tacos were still absolutely incredible--I can only imagine how spectacular it tastes fresh! My friends and I ordered the carne asada tacos, and my boyfriend opted for the cabeza. Before I even took a full bite, I tasted a piece of the loose carne asada and was blown away; it was perfectly cooked with a wonderful tenderness and deep smokiness. The use of a single, thin, handmade flour tortilla--rather than the standard double corn--was a total game-changer and exactly how I preferred my tacos. The salsas were equally impressive, offering fantastic flavor and a great kick. My boyfriend's cabeza taco was just as standout, featuring super-tender meat with a rich, savory profile. Wowowow! Between the exceptional meat quality, bold flavors, and great value, this is easily one of the best taco spots I've visited. It's a huge bummer that they don't have a location down in San Diego, but we will definitely be back!

Just three blocks and youre in a parking lot mini mall, and there it is on the corner. They have a few tables outside and basically you walk in and its a small place just to order and grab some salsa for your food. This spot is very unique, and the first time I've had fresh blue corn tortilla tacos. I chose one regular carne asada and two queso of the same. My wife got one chorizo and one nopal. They add cilanto and onion to the tacos and you chose the salsa. We went with the green and its hot but enjoyable. They also tossed a couple slices of raddish on our plates, and to drink we shared a large container of fresh strawberry lemonade. These tacos were damn good. The best I have ever had. Now i know why so many celebs (like Ramy Youseff) come here for the food. They have good taste. I hope one day, I get a place like this where i live. It would be a massive competitor in Long Beach.

I love the Cabeza tortilla and 3 is the perfect number of tacos for me as they are pretty generous with the meat and avocado sauce. Been here twice and both times because we were going to a show at the Forum which is just a short drive away. It gets pretty busy around dinner time so expect a long wait as the line moves pretty slowly (everything is made/ cooked fresh!)... but the wait is 100% worth it. Just make sure you order enough the first time so you dont have to wait in line again. There is some parking but it gets pretty crowded too so you might have to street park (and the area around can get a little sketch) so be careful. The second time we came here was almost 1130pm right before their midnight closing. This time, the parking lot was emptier so we managed to park inside. There was still a pretty steady stream of customers even around closing, but at least the line isn't ridiculously long. Can't go wrong with anything you order here!

These were truly the epitome of street tacos and absolutely nothing about the vibe, the service, and the FOOD, disappointed. Immediately upon arrival, I noticed the long line of people and said to myself, either this place is really good or really slow. It took me longer to decide what I wanted to try than what it took for the line to move and for it to be my turn to order. So yea, these folks are FAST and very courteous as well. They have real Al Pastor on the trompo (the spit) so of course I ordered pastor tacos and a pastor mulita. I also ordered a few SUADERO tacos which you don't find just anywhere. I am still raving about the amount of meat and flavor of the food here, it's insanely delicious. Once you get your food you make your way down to the end of the taco stand where you are met with an amazing array of fresh taco fixings and salsas. The pink creamy-habanero was the best and the green/red salsas followed right behind. I can't wait to go back to this place.

I do like how they grill their meat though and they use the tortillas to scoop up the meat on the grill. Thought the al pastor was a bit salty and the cheese did not add much flavor to it, but that's probably a good thing considering the saltiness of the meat. 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.
