So a bit of a funny story. I came looking for Mariscos Jalisco having had my sights on it since I…read morewatched the Jonathan Gold documentary shortly after moving to LA. I had the address on my car navigation but as I drove up to the block I noticed the 4 Vientos truck and wrongly assumed this was Jalisco. So I turned it and promptly ordered at the truck. I did briefly question why the signage was different but the long queues and the delicious looking morsels that everyone around me were eating made me assume once again that I was at the right place. In my ignorance, I did not know that this entire stretch of Olympic Blvd was home to many such mariscos and taco trucks. In any case, I ordered. I ate. I was plenty satisfied and more than impressed and it wasn't until after I got home and did more research that I realized I was at the 4 Vientos truck. Well, no harm done. It just meant I needed to go back for the Jalisco truck very soon. Fresh seafood! Excellent tostadas. You can't go wrong!

Long before the new Los Angeles magazine's issue "The best Mexican food in Los Angeles" featured a centerfold story about Tacos Guanajuato, Pancho V. (my mentor in all things Mexican food) advised me to give this place a try. The butterfly-fluttering feeling you get when your favorite author publishes a new book or when the sequel to your favorite movie is released, is akin to the way I felt coming here for the first time. It's Wednesday night at 10 PM, Julia and I are giggling like schoolgirls as we exit my car. The area feels safe where we are given a VERY warm welcome. All smiles, like we are old friends, the chef shakes my hand beneath a canopy while the open air shakes hands with a hot grill. Allow me to introduce you to Ulises, Pepe and Fernando. -The family. I accept a sample of the Jamaica - Hibiscus Aguas Frescas. A great palate cleanser for the good things to come. I know what to order, having read my mentor's review. Volcanes ($1) with pastor ( marinated pork) and grilled pineapple. Volcanes are small, light as air, crunchy corn shells covered with bubbling hot melted cheese and your choice of grilled meat, grilled pineapple, guacamole, vegetables, salsa etc. The chef will mastermind your configuration if you forfeit your control to him. I love to be dominated so I relinquish all my decisions to his wise authority. He chooses avocado, pastor, and grilled pineapple for me. Good choice! "Please have a seat!" our hosts urge my girlfriend and I, so we do. Suddenly, music is playing. Thanks! Wait! Magic? (This is good stuff guys) *insert drool* Prepare your tongues to experience textural overload when dining here. The volcanes deliver a light crunch of corn, scalded melted cheese and sweet grilled flavors. Be sure to order another one a minute or two before you finish the last bite, else you might be overcome with regret. There is no contest. The volcanes are far superior a choice to the tacos we sampled. The pastor (marinated pork) is tender and well seasoned, the lengua (tongue) is tender but a little plain and the asada (steak) is lean but also might leave you wanting the pastor. The condiment bar offers cucumbers, cilantro, onions and a few varieties of salsa for you to improve your bounty. Nothing is too spicy here. A handy option for those of you with delicate tummies. Enjoy a wonderful night out in the intoxicating guava-scented air, experiencing gastronomic bliss. Give your worried finances a holiday here, where all these items are only one dollar. Tomorrow you can can break the bank, cutting into your steak on fine china, tipping an actress, and waiting in vain for the valet. But! Tomorrow, you might be wishing you were here. Where they treat you like family, the guava blossoms are blooming and everything goes right; just like magic. If for any reason, you find this review, useful, funny or cool.

The quesatacos do not come with consome on the side, so you have to purchase that separately. For the quesatacos, you can choose between beef or goat for the meat.

It's run by a family and they specialize in birria de chivo estilo Jalisco (goat birria). From what I understand the recipe and their technique has been in the family for generations. The vibe here was like a nice neighborhood cookout where I was a guest at someone's family's house. I walked up and ordered from the friendliest people you could ever meet and I knew pretty much knew what I was gonna get so I ended up ordering two tacos and a quesobirria (taco). I was offered a small cup of the broth to go with my meal and I definitely wasn't gonna turn that down. The broth has a heavier tomato flavor than other places I've tried and it goes really well with the tacos. I have to say that the meat was smoky and flavorful and the tortillas were great! I really love these places - feels like it was steeped in tradition and on a personal level, I feel like my inner Anthony Bourdain is satiated, haha. Definitely worth checking out. Parking was super easy at least the time I went. Doesn't feel like a lot of traffic comes thought this particular area in the later morning or early afternoon timeframe.
