It's in such a cute…read morespot right on PCH in Redondo Beach, which already makes it a great place to stop, but the food completely exceeded our expectations. Everything tasted incredibly fresh and perfectly seasoned. We ordered the carne asada and carnitas, and both were amazing. The meat was tender, flavorful, and not fatty at all just perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. My daughter had the bean and cheese burrito with rice and beans and loved it too. They bring out three different salsas with the chips, and each one had its own unique flavor. You can tell the chips are house-made because they're fresh, crisp, and just really good. Some Mexican restaurants can make things overly salty, but everything here tasted balanced and fresh. I also had a Paloma and it was made perfectly. Before we left we decided to try the churros and I'm so glad we did. They were filled with this amazing cream and came with a caramel sauce for dipping. I'm not usually a big dessert person, but these were seriously incredible. Great location, great service, amazing food, and everything tasted fresh and well made. We will definitely be back!

They immediately bring around chips and three types of salsa, which is such a nice gesture to still get at some places. The service was great, they help each other. We tried the quesadilla trio, the street corn, and a number of different tacos. The food was really good, there were some that I liked more than others but definitely a solid place for authentic Mexican

We will definitely go again when on this side of town now that we know the correct address

They also have plenty of TVs to watch the sports games so whenever the dodgers are playing, they have a decent crowd. They have a small parking lot but there's only 3-4 reserved restaurant parking spots so you'll probably need to park on the street. They bring you free chips and salsa. I ordered a skinny margarita and the shrimp tacos. I always am scared getting a skinny marg because it is either super strong or not good but this one was the best I've had in a while. The shrimp tacos were yummy! My friend wasn't a big fan of them because they were too wet and didn't have enough crunch. The prices are good too. It's hard to find a place where you can order a margarita for $12 now a days. The servers were super welcoming and attentive. All around top tier service here! This may be my new favorite Mexican restaurant in redondo. Highly recommend!

The staff was so kind and we got complimentary chips and salsa. I ordered the Chicken Soup here. Chicken Soup - Obviously, you're not really supposed to get the chicken soup here, but I am on a diet so I needed to get a healthier option. The soup itself was flavorful and light veggies and chicken. It came with rice and onions (you can order tortillas on the side). The chicken in the soup was pretty tough and difficult to chew, however they gave a LOT. You definitely get a bang for your buck if you're trying to eat high protein. Overall, this place was just meh for me. My husband seemed to think the food here is mediocre as well. I don't think I would choose to come back here.

A man does not stumble upon a place like El Torasco by accident. He arrives hungry from the…read moreroad--sunburned perhaps, a little tired, and in need of something honest. The door opens. Warm air scented with roasted chiles and grilled carne asada greets you like an old friend who knows exactly what you came for. The room hums softly--families, laughter, plates arriving with quiet authority. No pretension. No theatrics. Just the confident rhythm of a kitchen that understands its purpose. The salsa arrives first. Bright. Alive. The sort of salsa that makes you pause mid-conversation and look down at the bowl with respect. Then the meal. Enchiladas wrapped in velvet-soft tortillas. Rice with the quiet depth of slow simmering. Beans rich enough to remind you that comfort can be served on a plate. And the margarita--cold, unapologetic, perfectly balanced--arrives like punctuation at the end of a long day. You sit back. The noise of the world recedes. This is not simply dinner. It is the rare satisfaction of a place that does exactly what it promises--and does it well. Five stars.

First off they serve you fresh tortillas with salsa and honey butter and they are SO GOOD AND SO FRESH. I got the crispy taco y enchilada with chicken, and it hit the spot. Definitely good Mexican.

She's been coming here for years, and we end up visiting multiple times a year because it's always such a solid choice. We love sitting outside, people watching, and enjoying the pier atmosphere. The drinks are amazing, and we are definitely fans of the Big Zaddies. The handmade tortillas with butter and salsas are always a must, the enchiladas are so good, and the ceviche tastes fresh every time. Palmilla is always a win in our book. We'll definitely keep coming back and introducing more people to this amazing spot.

Order at the window just off the sidewalk and pick up at the window right next to it. Sometimes they give you a number sometimes they just tell you the order items to get you to pick it up. The order taker is bilingual and was friendly. However, it was hard to hear him over the kitchen and street noise. Either they go my order wrong or their hard tacos are just lightly fried and not the American style hard ones like at Taco Bell. The taquitos, usually crunchy elsewhere, were also just lightly fried and only like smaller soft tacos. All this is probably healthier, but if you want a traditional hard taco, then try elsewhere. The tacos tasted good. They were not spectacular, but were good. The fish taco is also not fried and is the grilled fish. Good for a grilled fish taco, but hey the fried one always tastes better! healthier grilled. Seems they included several large whole fried tortillas as chips and lots of salsa. These were just ok. On the whole, if you are in the area and want Mexican food or breakfast, then this is a fast and economical place to go. However, if you want really good tacos, taquitos, and burritos, there are far better places in the SoCal area. Would come back here, but not our first choice for a taco place.
