Corn Man

MUST READ--this page is NOT the official corn man's page. Someone else made this page, phone number & website. This fake person is saying that the corn man caters to scam money from customers. The REAL corn man does NOT cater! Now to the corn review--we got in line at 9:30pm, he came around 10:40pm on Sunday night. There was over 70 people in line & luckily we were 8th in line. The area looked vacant & a bit sketchy, since we aren't from here, but luckily the others that were in line were friendly. We ordered 5 corn on the cob and 5 bowls. It was neatly wrapped in foil and made super fast. The corn was sweet with giant kernels. When you open the foil to eat, it's piping hot. DELICIOUS!! Must try, but do NOT contact the person who made this page for catering!! read more

The best esquite I've had in a LONG time. This gentleman provides good amount of food for what you're paying for. Too bad we're suffering from inflation. It's pricy but guess what. You get what you pay for. It's a decent amount of corn. With its typical toppings. Nice and fresh, warm and they even have drinks. Champurrado was hittin the spot too. As they say it was bussin bussin! Definitely will come here they have earned our business. There is a line so be prepared to wait. There's parking and it's chill to hangout with your friends. read more

Just a heads up! The advertisment about the Corn Man catering is not true at all so don't fall for this! He does not cater at all! Dont even call the number as well! Going back to the review, this is hands down one of the best corn I've had in years! If you want to cut down the waiting time, I suggest that you come here on the weekdays. I went around Sunday and Monday and the line wasnt bad at all. I waited for at least 25 minutes for both days. Corn is really nice, sweet and crunchy. I ordered the bowl and it might seems like its not a lot but trust me, after a few bites you will feel full right away. The bowl is $2 while the drinks are $1 which is really cheap! I didnt try the cob yet but next visit, that's on my list! Theres plenty of parking space around this area. Expect some bums around here. I encountered 2 funny drunks while waiting in line. I would definitely come back here but I wont be coming here on a Friday or Saturday night. read more

3 stars because they are out there every night working and making an honest living. Keep it up! Friday night got to the location at 10pm in hope of seeing the corn man set up and selling his elote's, yes there was about 40 people already waiting in line but he was no where to be seen. An hour later he finally shows up and by no surprise the people start cheering and are very happy to see him. We wait just a few more minutes while he sets up shop and he finally gets the line moving a little after an hour. I talked to the people around me just to make conversation and people actually drive from about Ontario and Brea to eat this stuff. So finally my turn to order and the Corn Man was so cool and made small talk while he got my order ready, he asked where I was from and if it was my first time trying his Corn. I thought that was so cool! I got my order and moved just to the right side to the young man helping him collect payments, after I payed I stuck around to take a few photos and the young man kinda seemed bothered that I was still there and kept saying out loud " how many photos are you going to take, just eat the corn already" :| kinda rude but what can you do, so I stepped to my car to finish my photos and enjoy my corn. **So I was expecting this over to top flavorful corn on the cob and the people I was talking to in line made it sound like it was going to be the best I've ever had, I am Mexican so I have plenty of corn on the cob. A little disappointed to just have your regular elote with all the regular toppings. Nothing fancy or extreme :/ I defiantly won't be back cause I could find this stuff in some local neighborhoods and areas. read more

At 12am wait time maybe was at about 30min. The corn tasted fresh and sweet. If you order the corn diced inside a bowl it is topped with lots and lots of mayonnaise, Cotija cheese and Chile powder. You can ask the hard working gentlemen to go a little easy on any ingredient, just be nice and friendly when you do. All the combined ingredients do mesh extremely well and add flavor to the corn. I found the corn good, as any fresh corn usually taste. Nothing spectacular but it is one of those LA spots one should visit for the experience. read more

Apparently the corn man that I meet told me he is there in front of Gates Elementary Monday through Friday or on the right side of the block during the evenings,and he does big/small events during the weekends. Overall he carries calling cards if asked. He is super friendly and willing to make your order as requested. The only thing I noticed is he makes his raspados without using gloves. First he grabbed the ice he shaved from the block of ice to the cup. It bothered me moderately b/c I grew up in LA almost all my life seeing this but of course if he handles money it did make me only get an elote on a stick which he grabbed differently. read more

i was skeptical of the hype around this place, but i am now a believer. Long story short, a couple of my friends and I wanted to get elotes (I haven't had one in years) and we tried checking out another stand in ktown, but we arrived 5 mins too late and she was gone. We decided since we were all the way out there, we could drive another 15 mins to the Corn Man. we arrived at the sketchy lot around 9:50pm on a tuesday night, and lined up (we were second in line) behind two girls. eventually a homeless man came up to all of us speaking not in english and was holding a bottle of alcohol and saying stuff and asking us questions. my friends and i, and the two girls kept trying to avoid him and stepped as far away as possible. he probably got within like 1 foot of us but thankfully a couple rolled up to the line and the man kindly asked the homeless guy in the other language to leave or something, and he did. we were a bit scared, but glad nothing happened! (pro tip: don't go alone at night...) the corn man and his son started setting up around 10:58pm (my friends and i were nervous he wouldn't show up since some people said he set up around 10:45pm). his son and himself worked quickly. by then, the line had grown to like 40 people. i ordered one elote ($2.50) for there and one esquite ($2.50) to go and he was superrr generous with the toppings. the mayo, cheese, butter, and chile are amazinggg together. by then, my friends and i were HYPED and couldn't wait to eat it. we ate on the trunk of my car and it was sooooo goooood. side note: i love corn (so probably anything with corn to me is good but this was still very good). also, he and his son are super nice and like to talk to the customers! very friendly :) altogether, waited for like 1 hour and 15 mins, but def worth a try if you're ever in the area. my time in LA is coming to an end, so i'm glad i was able to try this place out before i left! parking is easy, i parked under a light haha. read more

Finally got to try the famed Corn Man. We got to the address on yelp around 9:40 pm already two people in line. Wow dedication. The line starts at the white brick wall in front of the parking lot. Everyone just parks in the lot. Not sure its permitted but no one said anything. At 9:40 pm there were 7 of us in line. By 10:00 pm around 30. By 10:30 pm around 60. WOW. Not sure why Yelp says he opens at 10:00 pm but he got there around 10:45 pm. A guy with a furry helmet on a Vespa pulls up. The crowd goes quiet. 30 seconds later we see the Corn man's pick-up truck pull up and the furry helmet man goes to help him set up. The crowd starts to clap. What the heck is going on?? He pulls and everyone cheers! Only 2 options on the menu. Elote on the cob or elote in a bowl. Both have corn, mayo, i think Cotija and Parmesan cheese blend, melted butter, and paprika. I preferred the elote in the bowl. Less mess and I feel you get more for your $2. Both pack a slight heat. Liked it but I dont know if I would ever wait in that line again. Once in a lifetime and thats enough for me. read more

Finally finally finally got to visit corn man! It's so amazing how he's been here everyday for the past 30 years and so many people wait for this man. My friends and I came around 9:15PM on a Friday night. Nobody was in line, so we decided to go to CVS to kill some time. By the time we got back 15 minutes later, there were about 15-20 people in line already. He didn't come until ~10:40PM, but thankfully I had good company with me, so it didn't feel too long. I honestly felt so honored to be there and have the chance to try his corn. He was very kind and thanked us for coming and waiting. Watching him work his magic was pretty mesmerizing. He works so fast and does not skimp at all on toppings. Mayo, parmesan, chili powder and butter. MMMMmmmm, that butter!! For just $2, you can get either on a cob or in bowl. I went for the esquite, simply because it's a much cleaner option. He also sells soda and water too if you get thirsty from all that delicious corn. The chili powder doesn't look like it'd be spicy, but my mouth was lit!! I'm thinking of the corn as I'm writing this review the following morning and my mouth is salivating... Ahh! I'll be back very soon! read more

Probably the BEST ELOTE IVE EVER HAD! I have come here countless times for their elote. For only $2?? Where can you go wrong? I always used to get the bowl because it's less messier and convenient, but I regret it because corn the cob is absolutely worth it!! What I like about the corn man is that he's so generous with all the ingredients he puts on there. I usually get everything on it, and I ask for lime at the end. Really brings out the flavor. I'm gonna warn you. It does get really spicy, but it's such a good spice that you want more of it. read more

Came yesterday on 03/06/2020 at around 10:50 PM Got here a little early, as he usually doesn't set up until around 10 or 11:00 PM And I got to say that it was really good. Overall if you're gonna be picky one and try to pin point it down to the micro detail and such just don't go. The guy is super nice, the product is good and fresh, and it's an overall experience. Yes you are most likely going to have to WAIT A WHILE in line. And if you are not okay with that don't go and they come write a negative review about having to wait because I'm literally telling you right now. Anyways I would defiantly come again as I enjoyed it & had a great time. Especially for the price Overall - fresh - quality product - great service from the guy - & yes you will most likely have to wait in line read more

This place is out of the way for me, but I can't help coming back all the time. The corn is sooo yummy and warm and such a good price. I always get the corn in the cup with a little chili. I think I'm also lactose intolerant so although my butthole doesn't agree with me, my heart does and I get it anyways :") Some may say it's not that special, but it's corn with mayo and cheese how much more special can it get. Also bring a jacket or blanket, it can get chilly while waiting in line! read more

Whoever made this Yelp page is pure genius. After months of wanting to come, I decided to drive 29 miles with two of my coworkers to give this Cornman a try. We got there around 11 something and there was a HUUUUUUUGE line. Although we waited a little over two hours, it was definitely worth it. About two hours in, we find out the corn on the cob is all sold out, but they still had plenty of corn in the bowl available. Say yes to the chile, because that's amazing. The amount of cheese you get is drool worthy. Just standing in line makes you hungrier and hungrier as time passes. $2 per item, CASH ONLY. They sell drinks as well. Two hour wait? No problem. Defintely worth it and will be back again. Cornman, thank you for all that you do. See you soon, sir. read more

So I had this spot bookmarked for some time and finally on a boring Saturday night, my sister and I decided to give this place a try! I was thinking since it's a Saturday night, everyone would be out and about, So I didn't think we'd wait longer than 30 minutes...boy was I wrong! Arrived Saturday night at 11:30 PM and oh my goodness, the line was insane! it went all the way into the parking lot where the cars are parked...we waited almost 2 hours to get our corn!! by the time it was our turn, he ran out of corn on the cob (which was super disappointing because I really wanted that). Lots of people love the corn in a bowl but I mean it's good but the experience of elote was different! anyway, since i only got corn in a bowl i can only review that... Corn in a bowl: As i was waiting impatiently in line, i was watching the way he was making it thinking "how can this be SOO good that people are willing to wait 2 hours just for corn". What i noticed was, each time he opened the bucket full of corn, lots of steam came out! which means it was hot and fresh! and every topping he put, it was like he just loaded them on top...which is probably WHY it's so good! he puts SO MUCH of everything lol if you decide on coming, be prepared to wait close to 2 hours if you aren't lucky lol. i heard the line starts at 930 and he doesnt get there until 10:30...so theres already a line before he's there...everything costs $2/each, make sure to bring CASH duh. they sell water and soda too. parking is breeze, street parking or the private lot he conveniently serves in front of. be warned, the cheese makes the place smell kinda funky as you wait! read more

Elote is corn on a stick. Esquite is corn in a bowl - easier to eat and to take to go. Either way is a delicious $2.50! Corn Man totally lived up to the hype. I brought my own tupperware and ordered 2 extra to go for tomorrow. His corn tastes better than any I've tried around Koreatown. It packs a little spicy heat too! Was he worth the wait? YES! I arrived 10:20pm on a Friday night to see a line of maybe 20 people. I left satisfied less than 1 hour later. read more

I finally made a culinary adventure on Friday night. After the LA Phil concert, on the way home, I came down here to have different vibe and eat famous 'elote' in Lincoln Heights. It was 10:30pm as i drove in the parking lot where more than 100 people waited in line, while it was windy, the fallen leaves flying everywhere and couples had to hug each other to get warm, but still the cart didn't arrive yet. this parking lot was there as if it's made for the Corn Man, spacious and 9pm to 1am free while one day parking is $2.50. When i said i was first comer, people were so generous giving so many useful informations and histories that they'd been there since they were young, now brought their kids beside them and kids looked very proud of it. people went crazy and cheers as the Corn Man carts arrived with their speed, up the umbrella and lit the light bulb and the steam flying out from the containers with the sweet aroma when the corn man opened up their lid to make elote. It's kind of amusements that the corn man looked like magician. A very simple and run of the mill turned to be extraordinary as he put the mayo, cheese, lime, and chili over the corn. Also the texture was so crunch as if I had tortilla. "Their Eyes Were Watching His Hands(God)'-Zora Neale Hurston. It was fun and filling and would be wonderful night out with different ethic, age groups and families to enjoy Friday night with few bucks. read more

This is definitely the spot for a late night corn craving! I literally found him while just googling where we could find late night snacks. We are not locals so we had traveled about 4 hours and were looking for something good late at night. I came across the corn man and we went for it. He does set up late at night but it only makes it that much better. His prepared street corn never disappoints. He does get a lot of customers so the line does get long and the wait can take a while BUT to me it's worth it! Mexican street corn cannot be beat. The corn man is very attentive to his customers as they approach him and has great hard working attitude. I give him 5 stars for the hard work he puts in every single day and for the performance while preparing some of the best corn you'll ever have. read more

I would consider this a must visit if you're visiting LA or even if you do reside in LA and love street style Mexican corn. This place gives me that feeling of nostalgia every time I have it. I used to live in El Sereno back when I was a kid and the corn man was someone I would always wait all day for. Although this isn't the same corn man I used to wait for as a kid, it's as good as it gets! He's not shy when it comes to the toppings (mayo, squeezable "butter", cheese, lime, and chili). You can even ask for extra if you want and he doesn't charge. They also have champurrado ! The corn man is such a nice guy. So very humble and always greets you with a smile and a "thank you" for waiting. Plus this place is open late night! The only downside to this place is you'll be waiting quite a while and he's always usually late. However, it's so worth it! read more

ELOTE, ELOTE, ELOTE! Elote is Mexican corn if you've never heard of it before. I've had other elote before, but this is by far the best one. It was so good that I went two days in a row the first time I tried it! The corn man has been doing this for 20+ years, and definitely knows what he's doing! You can either get the corn in a bowl or on the cob. I would recommend getting it on the cob because I think the corn is jucier, but you can get it in a bowl if you're worried about the mess. The corn is covered with butter, mayonnaise, cheese, and chili if you can handle the spice! When I first got there, I was hesitant about all those flavors mixing together, but the result was magical in the end. Tips: 1. You can also ask for lime on the corn. 2. Ave 26 Tacos is really close by and they have MUST try street tacos. 3. The wait can be quite long and he doesn't come till 10:00PM so be sure to bring a jacket. read more

Thank goodness I came here before he ran out of corn! If you want corn on the cob, I definitely suggest coming here when it opens despite the long wait! So my friend and I came to the corn man around 1:50, which was 10 minutes before he was about to close. Luckily he had enough corn to make 2 bowls for the both of us! He definitely packed the bowls with a lot of corn! I also can't believe each bowl only cost $2 (CASH ONLY). Well since we were the last customers, he didn't want to charge us and gave it to us for free!! My friend and I could not accept the corn for free so we gave him a nice tip :) Sadly I wanted to try the corn on the cob, but the bowl of corn was just as good! I loved the huge amount of corn he gave along with mayo, cheese, and spice. Although he did go a little overboard with the amount of cheese. Yet, I would come here all the time if I lived in LA. Parking is free on the street and in the lot he has his cart parked in front of. I definitely suggest coming here at least once when you spend a night out in LA. read more

We waited 1.5 hours for this corn. But it was WORTH. TRUST ME. We arrived around 10:50 PM on a Saturday and the line was already pretty lengthy, but we were visiting for the weekend and determined to get our elote in a bowl! He had just arrived with his cart when we got in line, but we didn't get our turn until around 12:20 AM. Its not because he isn't fast (he knows what the heck he's doing!!), but because many people were ordering crazy amounts of elote, which just shows how amazing it is. When it was our turn he was the sweetest corn man, and at just $2.50 per stick/bowl, we wish we got more. I am already dreaming of the next time I get to have this amazing elote in a bowl. read more

Are they open for business during the rain?

Typically when it rains he will do drive through service which is actually pretty awesome!

What time should I go there to avoid a long wait on a Sunday night? The later the better or the earlier the better?

There is always a line , he gets there around 11 to 1130pm, we've been there around 2am and the line was long... Just be prepared to wait , they are definitely worth it 👌

Now when you pull up originally you might think, "am I in the right place" but once you park and get into the courtyard, it is LOVELY! Amazing ambience! There is a bocce set up, string lights. It is a little slice of oasis in the middle of the fashion district. The restaurant itself - beautiful. I couldn't ask for more. Absolutely perfect in my book. Beautiful plants hanging, perfect Spanish music in the background (any place playing Natalia LaFourcade is a win). The drinks were great! I had the jungle bird which was fun. Food was so good too. The whipped beans are the star! We had the guacamole which was tasty, great tostadas with it. The arepas were good but the pork belly was a little too fatty (I know pork belly is always fatty) to the point the fat muted the flavored for the arepa a bit, but still delicious. The empanadas were great and as someone who lived in South America and ate empanadas every day, these really took me back to my Paraguay days. The squash blossoms were light and perfectly fried. Unfortunately my friends had gone to Funke the night before so they were comparing the squash blossoms and Funke won out, but they still liked Dama's! Small plates were enough for the 3 of us. The service was quick and attentive. Parking was easy for us. I will definitely be back!

The staff are lovely humans who really seem to care about their customers. We have some faves on the menu. The bean dip is fabulous and I'm addicted to the baby gem salad. They have recently amped up the filling in the delicious crispy squash blossoms and I love the acidity and heat. The fish is also a hit in my books. One dish that doesn't work for me is the lamb chops, which is a shame since it's my favorite protein. I've ordered them multiple times with clear instructions on temperature and have found them overcooked and tough. The beef tostada was just ok. Whilst I loved the pickled veg on the side, the beef was underseasoned. It wasn't bad - just not up to the standard of other dishes. The vibe in the place is welcoming and the restaurant is nicely appointed. We will continue to be regulars and it's really worth trying if you haven't been yet.

Located between Koreatown and Pico-Union, this restaurant delivers an outstanding dining experience from the moment you're seated. My wife and I both ordered the Mole Coloradito with chicken, and it was absolutely delicious. One detail we really appreciated was being able to choose between white meat or dark meat--a thoughtful touch that lets you customize your meal to your preference. The mole was rich, complex, and full of flavor, exactly what you would hope for from a restaurant known for its Oaxacan specialties. As a welcome appetizer, they bring fresh chips and salsa to the table, but what really impressed us was when they replaced the salsa with their incredible mole sauce. It was so good we found ourselves dipping everything into it. Both meals were served with rice that was perfectly cooked with a great consistency and flavor. For those feeling adventurous, give the Chapulines (grasshoppers) a try. They may sound intimidating, but they were surprisingly enjoyable and added to the authentic experience. The staff was exceptionally friendly, attentive, and patient with those of us who are not fluent in Spanish. Their hospitality made us feel comfortable and welcomed throughout our visit. Great food, authentic flavors, and wonderful service make Guelaguetza a restaurant we'll definitely be returning to. Highly recommended!

As soon as you walk up the stairwell you'll be transported into this super cute place with an outdoor-indoor feel, almost like an elegant treehouse. We were seated on the second level which provided a Birds Eye view of the restaurant. We ordered a few items to share: Cameron ceviche, flautas and for our sweet tooth, French toast paired with a mango sorbet surprise with a candle for our birthdays (tip: we drizzled the melted sorbet on our French toast and took small scoops with each bite - game changer!). Everything was so delicious! We also ordered mocktails, a miche-nada for him and a lemony drink for me. This experience wouldn't have been as great without the exceptional service we had. Our waters were always refilled without asking, our tables were cleaned with every dish, honestly top-notch service!

My only real bummer was discovering they took the vegan ceviche off the menu--that was actually the whole reason I came back! I'm sure they have their reasons, but I was pretty disheartened to see it go. Overall, the menu doesn't have a ton of vegan items, but they do have some room for adjustments if you ask. Despite the menu change, the incredible atmosphere and unique menu still make it a must-try.

And I live in Portland, which has really good vegetarian options. First of all, I could eat like 75% or more of the menu as a pescatarian. I was thrilled and so overwhelmed because I normally don't have that many choices! First of all, the water was infused and was delicious. I browsed the menu and had a really hard time deciding, but ended up on the cauliflower rajas taco, the crispy shrimp taco & the vegan Korean BBQ taco. The waiter recommended the crispy shrimp taco, but I actually enjoyed the vegetarian tacos more. I love cauliflower and poblano so that taco was a great starter. So much flavor and a variety of textures. The tortillas were super flavorful too. The potato taquitos came next and I am actually obsessed. The outside was perfectly crispy, the interior was soft, flavorful & cheesy. The sauce complimented it perfectly. I can not recommend them enough. The crispy shrimp taco was really good, but I also tried a crispy fish taco and would honestly get that over the shrimp. I think there was mango or something in the coleslaw of the fish taco because it had a really nice fresh flavor to it. Last, I had the vegan Korean BBQ taco. The mushroom shreds & the flavor were just perfect. Again, as a pescatarian I have really never had Korean BBQ because it's so heavily meat focused. I truly loved this taco. If I hadn't discovered it on my last night in LA, I might've come back on my short trip. The whole place is just a vibe and the food was beyond excellent.

Hollenbeck was good but I definitely enjoyed the Okie burrito more, I ordered the "original" size once and didn't seem to learn my lesson the second time, these burritos can feed two in Original size. They offer a "Mini" version which would be satisfactory for one person. My favorite thing about these burritos is how "home-made" they are, the salsas and meats are fresh and taste like they came out of an abuelitas kitchen. I still need to try the crunchy tacos and nachos which look great, I recommend trying this classic establishment at least once if you're in the area.

The ceviche is bright with lime and the cocteles are lush and briny with a tomatoey kick, and the aguachiles hit with sharp citrus, fresh herbs, and it's a really decent amount of fish.
