This place has baby burritos!!!…read more If you're anything like me, someone that loves food (too much) and needs to practice portion control, a baby burrito is where it's at! I've never found a mexican spot that does this, not to mention the food is so fresh and so delicious. I call it a baby burrito but what you'll want to order is the 1/2 pound Mar y Tierra burrito, lol. I'm not sure if they do 1/2 pound with all burritos but I will ask & update this review next time I go back which will be very soon as it's my new go-to Mexican spot in West LA. I also got the shrimp taco which was spectacular. The guy at the front is super kind, and the ambiance is calm. The salsa that comes with your food is incredible and I can taste the freshness. On my can't-miss list!

I'm so glad we did and I'm honestly craving their food right now. Every time I've seen them, they are parked in Sawtelle, on Sawtelle & Mississippi Ave right outside Daiso. The JFC Bowl. It seems this is the star and it's what I got at Gozen. JFC = Japanese Fried Chicken bowl, it is karage topped with a lot of goodness, including spicy mayo. It has a kick to it in all the right ways, full of flavor. The fluffy dog is just $5 and so original and cool. It's messy as heck, got some spicy kick to it and at least for me, totally filling. I'm going to have a hard time ever ordering anything besides my magical bowl moving forward. Legit good food and I'm wanting to eventually try their whole menu once I can move past my JFC.

The kaarage ($7) was well cooked - chicken was tender and moist with a nice crust and the spicy Mayo was the perfect complement Rice cake bonito ($2) was decent - nice to have a warm thick rice cake with just enough bonito seasoning. After you order you can spin a game to win prizes. Mostly likely you'll win some rice cracker and hi chew but you could win a fun mask or a cool Gozen tshirt!

They serve up momos cooked to order and sell frozen momos for you to make back at home. After chatting it up with the family for a little, I ordered the vegan Jhol Momo, and it brought back all the memories of trekking through Nepal. Delicious dumplings with aromatic Himalayan spices, drowning in a spicy, creamy and nutty sauce. Great addition to the Farmer's Markets!

The coco momo which you don't find at most Nepali places was so fun. I don't think I will be ordering the butter chicken momo again - I was really disappointed in that one since I have had that in other places. But the others were pretty good. Overall very happy to have another momo spot in LA :) The service did take a bit longer than expected but I would rather than undercooked momos'

While everything tasted good, it was just that- good. Not great or exceptional but nonetheless enjoyable. The customer service was great, with very kind employees. A family owned business since the 1990s with so much love and history behind each wrap. But I will say it took a solid 20 minutes to get the food out.. so be prepared to wait. Overall, it was worth the wait and nothing beats fresh, hot shawarma

We've eaten here many times before and it has become one of our favorite spots in LA. As a vegan, I especially love all of their vegan options, everything is always fresh, flavorful, creative, and satisfying. It's honestly hard to find places that do both vegan and non-vegan food this well. Last night we brought home the Breakfast Burrito and the Beef Guajillo Burrito for the kids, who literally stay up late waiting for these burritos because they love them so much. The portions are generous, the prices are great for the quality and amount of food you get, and everything tastes fresh and homemade. What really stood out was the kindness of the owner. When he heard we were taking the food all the way back home for the kids, he graciously added delicious elote corn, rice and black beans, and a bunch of amazing salsas and sauces. That kind of hospitality and genuine warmth is so rare these days. Tu Madre is one of those places that keeps you coming back... incredible food, great vegan options, generous portions, and genuinely kind people behind the counter. Highly recommend.

The staff was super helpful with recommendations, and the menu had so many creative twists on classic tacos. Everything felt fresh, flavorful, and different from the usual taco spots. What we tried KBBQ Braised Beef Street Taco: 9/10 Super flavorful and tender. The Korean BBQ-inspired beef was savory with a little sweetness, and spice. everything together worked well! Birria Taco: 8/10 A classic done right. Super juicy, packed with flavor, and definitely comforting. Ahi Tuna Taco: 7/10 Probably the most unique taco I tried. It tasted super fresh and light, though I recommend adding some sauce.

For around $10, you're getting a burrito that's practically the size of your face and packed with flavor. The carne asada is the star of the show. It has an amazing char, is perfectly seasoned and tastes fresh every single time. The atmosphere is great too. Good music, friendly staff, and a hardworking crew that always seems to have a smile on their faces. They have a self serve toppings bar with plenty of options, and while some people may be hesitant about that at a taco stand, everything is always clean and well maintained. I've eaten here many times and have never had an issue. The sauces are absolutely fire. The guacamole sauce, spicy green salsa and red hot sauce all bring something different to the table. Nothing tastes old or like it's been sitting around. Everything tastes fresh and is made with care. This has become our go to spot. We've tried a lot of taco stands and food trucks throughout Los Angeles, and honestly, nothing else has come close.
