Top notch hole in the wall Mexican food. The burrito was huge and the carne asada was full of flavor and super tender. Baja fish tacos were also delicious. Staff was friendly and food came out pretty quick. Just an excellent experience all around and will definitely be back read more

The fish tacos are really good but I've had their burrito and quesadillas and they're very mid. Unfortunately, the Mexican food I've had wasn't good. They burnt my quesadillas, I live far so I didn't bother going back. read more

Decided to stop by to get some seafood tacos since it was Friday. Food was great. The batter was just the right amount and not overpowering. I was waiting them to call me and pick up my order from the counter but was pleasantly surprised when they brought out it to my table. It was literally 5 feet away and could have called me up but took that extra "mile" to bring it to me. Loved the fact that they were blasting the AC since it's was so hot outside. Felt refreshing and it helped with the spicy but delicious salsa. read more

I've only ever ordered delivery from this place, but I've enjoyed it every time. Today I got their veggie burrito. It's enormous! It's delicious! This place is solid. You can always count on them when you want some good food at a decent price with generous portions. read more

We were craving nachos and did a deep dive on Yelp. We ended up at Costa Grande. It's definitely a hole in the wall! If you are looking for ambiance, this is not your place. The staff are lovely. I ended up getting chicken nachos. I asked the employee if she recommended shredded chicken or regular, and she said regular. The cheese was more of a liquid cheese which I prefer. However, it was very oily. The flavor of everything was good. And I am particularly picky about chicken, but this chicken was good. I probably won't be back because it's not hear me. read more

Casual spot for Mexican food, but the burritos were too salty. I came by because it's close to the Van Nuys bus terminal. It was very convenient to grab a quick meal here before picking someone up at the bus terminal. It wasn't crowded at all on a Monday evening around 7 pm when my friend and I arrived. I ordered a battered fish taco ($4.69) and a Costa Grande burrito with carne asada ($13.69). The fish taco with fried perfectly, but I did find it a bit on the bland side even with the aioli. The burrito was okay, but I found it extremely salty and had trouble eating it because of that. Also, it was a spicier than expected. Portions were big at least, I ate about 2/3 of the burrito and took the remaining 1/3 home. My friend got the veggie burrito ($13.69) and enjoyed it, but he also agreed that it was super salty. read more

Saw the high reviews and was excited to try, but this place fell short of our expectations. We got several of the shrimp and fish tacos, and the tacos themselves are quite large and unwieldy. I don't think the shrimp or fish tacos were particularly well done relative to other places, the battered fish and shrimp were definitely disappointing to me. We went in about an hour before closing and they said they were takeout only, so we ended up eating in the car which I thought was a bummer. read more

This place is legit, I came here with my wife a few years back. It was so memorable that we bookmarked it, and now we're back living nearby again. It's the go to spot for Mexican food and their costa grande style tacos were so delicious! The wet burrito is massive and ended up being a 2nd meal for my wife. Everything was super fresh and portions sre are really good. Not stuffed with a lot of fillers like most places. See you soon Costa Grande! read more

I'm coming back but it's not a 4star. Why? I'm a chilaquiles snob. They didn't ask how I wanted my egg and they made my egg huevo en torta (not usually a fan). They did ask me green or red sauce.the green sauce that I chose was on the sour side. To sour for that type of egg in my opinion. The tortillas in the chilaquiles were soggy. I like them crispy. BUT. THE INGREDIENTS THEMSELVES ARE GOOD. The red sauce is tasty and a perfect spicy! (On the hotter end), and their beans , rice and table chips on the side are good! AND THE ASADA, omg. their asada is fyeee. The horchata was decent as well. Do you see my dilemma? The things I'm coming back for: THE ASADA AND THE FISH BATTERED TACO CASA GRANDE STYLE. The fish battered WAS PERFECT. the slaw and tortilla that came with it were mid. BUT I AM COMING BACK TO EAT THAT PERFECT BATTERED FISH TACO NO TORTILLA hahaha. The chipotle sauce one was ok. But the texture, fluffy, crispy ratio was heavenly. read more

I had been wanting to try this place after reading the reviews. It's not easy to find but I made sure to zero in on my GPS map to find the exact location without getting lost. We ordered a Baja fish taco/grilled shrimp taco combo & a carne asada/chicken taco combo. Both came with rice and refried beans. (I would have preferred black beans but it wasn't an option) They were both good. *The prices need to be updated online since they didn't match when we ordered. *It's off of Sepulveda just south of Sherman Way across from CVS in a strip mall just behind McDonald's. *Free parking in the lot read more

Absolutely bonkers asada fries if I could just write wow and that be it I would. We ordered our fries to go drooled the whole way home smelling it opened them up and they were still piping hot. These were some of the best asada fries I've had in my entire life. Get the fries the rest of there food looks and smells amazing and if it's near as amazing as the fries go for it I had a mission to accomplish that day to get the best asada fries I could find and I found them. read more

Costa Grande - Carne Asada Fries with extra meat - Mexican Near Me - Van Nuys, California

We wanted to stop by a taco place before hitting LA and found this hidden gem on yelp. I'd totally go back to try more! Food (5/5): If you eat in (also maybe takeout), they give you warm chips and salsa. I got the grilled shrimp taco and it was delicious. I wasn't terribly hungry so one taco was good enough. My boyfriend got three tacos as he was hungry and it filled him up. He agreed that the shrimp taco out of the three he got was the best. Ambiance (4/5): They have two TVs, which were both playing American football and there were many tables, but we were the only ones there so we got the whole restaurant to ourselves. The bathroom was relatively clean. Service (5/5): The staff was friendly and quick. We got our food within 10 minutes of ordering. Parking: Weird lot but plenty of spots as they share the parking lot with a laundromat and a few other businesses. read more

Was excited to finally try this place out after seeing the reviews but the burrito I got here was one of the worst that I've ever purchased from a store. Inside of the california burrito was for some reason mostly liquid and was disgusting. Food was flavorless and burrito fell apart immediately with too much sour cream and not enough filling. Not sure why people on yelp love it so much but I've had better burritos from almost any stand nearby. read more

Hungry after a 12 hour shift and this place slaps as a late night meal. Got the shrimp and carne super fries, Cali Shrimp Taco and Elote. They have a very generous portion of fries, shrimp in both taco and fries were grilled well and super juicy. Carne was also juicy and not dry at all. Overall, so glad I discovered this hidden gem in the valley last minute. It was sort of hard to find but definitely worth it!! read more

Costa Grande - Super Fries (Shrimp and Meat Fries) Elote - Mexican Near Me - Van Nuys, California

The rumors are true, this is the best California Burrito in the San Fernando Valley. I ordered this to go but the service was quick and to the point. I asked for a carne recommendation and the cashier had said carnitas, so that's what I got. So thankful that she said that. The restaurant is tucked into this small shopping center but it is the highlight of it. Now, for the main event. In size, this burrito's a little over 7" (had to measure) and has some weight to it. It's slightly toasted and served with tortilla chips, salsa rojo and salsa verde. If you're concerned, they're not spicy but taste amazing (go red). Frankly, I obliterated this burrito (see photos) because I was hungry and it felt disrespectful not to consume this beast in one sitting. For those of you unwilling to go that extra mile, I recommend wrapping this bad boy up in tin foil and enjoying later. Did it fall apart? Graciously towards the end. Did it pack a punch? The sour cream, fries, and guacamole were delicious without the aforementioned salsa's aid. Would I recommend? Yes. I went to the deep, dark ends of the web (Reddit) in search of a burrito to satisfy my craving and this was the best decision I made. So, when your burrito craving starts itching the back of your skull, make your next stop Costa Grande! read more

First, let me start out by saying that the Baja Fried Fish tacos are HUGE! Had I known the tacos were that big, I would've only ordered one LOL! The tacos are delicious and the salsa is even better! I had a big back moment and ordered the Carne Asada Fries with jack cheese instead of the nacho cheese and without beans to take home. The fries were sooooo good! I asked for the nacho cheese on the side and dipped the fries in the cheese. The restaurant is clean and is located in a small strip mall. The customer service is great and I'll definitely back (but I will only order one dish taco next time lol!) read more

Costa fish battered was recommend - fried fish, coleslaw, sour cream, pico de gallo, 2 corn tortilla, and a good portion Baja fish battered - cabbage, chipotle aoili, pico de gallo, on 2 tortillas . I liked the Baja fish more Nachos with hot Cheetos gave it a nice different flavor. read more

I've been a long time patron of Costa Grande and they went out of their way to help me today. Whoever cooked the tacos showed OUT! Whew! They were absolutely delicious! I ordered 25 tacos (asada, chicken, shredded chicken) for some local mechanics and the woman who took my order over the phone was so kind and resourceful! Thank you all very much for providing the most flavorful tacos in Van Nuys! read more

One of very good friends said this spot has amazing authentic Mexican food in Van Nuys . So , we stopped on our way to our LA adventure. Came in & was warmly greeted by the cashier with a smile . He suggested a few items & in all honesty everything looked delicious. We ended up getting nachos & a wet burrito and Agua Fresca . Both dishes came out perfect and hot fresh out the kitchen . My burrito was more than enough for at least 2 ppl but I ended up eating the whole thing. My friend had the nachos and it was absolutely phenomenal. Overall , this is a great place to eat dine in or out . Food tasted great & it was plentiful . I'd high suggest stopping by if you are in the area! I can't wait to try something else off their menu . Customer service was terrific & food was excellent and I loved the decor read more

TLDR; burrito tastes good but has too much rice. I order their burrito on doordash and the flavor is good, but there's always too much rice to everything else ratio. Their burritos are big because it's all rice. Again the flavor is good though. Meat is nice not dry and rice is also good. It's just every other bite is a mouthful of rice. Can't say anything else about the place I've never been to the actual place, so never encountered the service. read more

I can only speak on their breakfast burrito... This place used to have the best breakfast burrito in town, hands-down the fluffiest eggs, the crispiest bacon potatoes with a particular salsa that just tastes amazing but it all went away sadly around the end of 2024. I don't know what happened to the original cook, but he moved on clearly because now the breakfast burrito eggs are crispy like the bacon used to be in the bacon is fluffy and undercooked unfortunately. As far as breakfast burritos, there's probably a thousand better now. I wish you guys would inform the new cook on how to stop burning the eggs and make sure the bacon is crispy. read more

The last time I had gone to Costa Grande, I was in middle school, and ordered steak fries (they weren't that great). I'm no longer in middle school, and I no longer eat steak. I wanted to try something new since it had been a while that I had been there, and I love seafood. I decided to try the shrimp nachos because they were the one item that caught my eye (and for $18 too!). Upon receiving them I was amazed by how loaded they were with grilled shrimp, and that very yellow diabetic inducing cheese that just really made it stand out. The seasoning on the shrimp paired so well with the guacamole that they gave me on the side, and it really brought the dish together. I will say that I did have to use the bathroom immediately after eating it BUT, I would go back. Next time I'll try the shrimp fries, less cheese this time. read more
