This review is about Tacos El Goloso, located at 1605 Pacific Coast Hwy, Harbor City, CA…read more My daughter is an EMT. While on duty, she stopped at this location and placed an order. Before her food was ready, she received an emergency call and had to leave immediately. That's the reality of being a first responder--when a call comes in, you leave immediately, no time to wait for your meal. Before leaving, she politely asked the cashier to cancel the order and refund her card. Instead of showing understanding or offering assistance, the cashier was dismissive and unhelpful. After completing the call, my daughter contacted the restaurant, apologized for the inconvenience, and again requested a refund. She was initially told that the receipt had been thrown away. Later, the receipt was apparently found, but she was then informed that if she wanted a refund--or even the food she had paid for--she would have to return to the location in person. The problem is that she lives more than an hour away and was only in the area because she was working. I called the following day in an attempt to resolve the issue. Unfortunately, I was met with the same attitude. The employee refused to provide her name, refused to provide a manager's name, and refused to provide any contact information for someone who could address the complaint. To be clear, this is not about the cost of a meal. Had the employee been courteous, professional, or even remotely helpful, we likely would have let the matter go. Emergencies happen. Schedules change. We understand that. What prompted this review was not the lost food or the refund itself--it was the employee's rude attitude, lack of professionalism, and complete unwillingness to help resolve a simple customer service issue. I will also acknowledge that by the end of my phone call, I became frustrated and was not as polite as I should have been. I regret that. However, that frustration came only after repeated attempts to handle the situation respectfully and being met with rudeness and resistance at every turn. A business can recover from a mistake. What it cannot afford is employees who treat customers with contempt and then refuse to provide any way to contact management when a legitimate concern is raised. Management should be aware that this employee's behavior reflects poorly on the entire business. If this is how customers are treated when they encounter an unexpected emergency, then potential customers deserve to know before choosing to spend their money here.

When the craving hits, it's always tacos!…read more I stopped by Tacos El Goloso on PCH and ordered a mix of street tacos (carnitas and al pastor) along with the tacos dorados de birria. I've been here before, and the birria tacos were exactly what I needed for a late-night craving. Crispy on the outside with a good amount of filling and strong flavor - they really hit the spot. I ended up having four of them. The consomé on the side was really good too - rich and flavorful, almost something I could've just had on its own. The street tacos were solid. The carnitas had that tender, slightly crisp texture, and the al pastor added a bit more seasoning and contrast. Nothing overcomplicated, just straightforward and satisfying. Service was friendly, and the setup is quick and casual. In the South Bay where places tend to close early, it was nice that they were open until around 10pm. Overall, this is a no-frills taco spot where the focus is on the food. Easy choice when you're in the mood for tacos.

Today we got consomme, chips, and cucumber agua fresca. But the drink tasted a little on the stale side as if it's been there for days and not replenished daily. Not sure what happened. Usually it's on point but somebody dropped the ball. So taste the agua fresca before you walk away to make sure it's freshly made (fyi). Otherwise, food is great and consistent. Service: sometimes it's good sometimes not just depends on the day I guess. Ambiance: busy, always busy so maybe call or order online if you don't want to wait.

We came right when they closed (around 1AM) and they barely had much meat left. However, we ended up ordering the cabeza and WAO truly the best cabeza I've had. The meat wasn't mushy (what I'm used to when I order elsewhere) and was super flavorful. They had a lot of protein options + papa rellenos. I will be back v soon to try out the other protein choices they have + papa rellenos :-) I was quite impressed coming here for the first time a few days ago. So far 10/10!

I watched the first half of Spain/Belgium in the quarterfinals and Argentina/England in the semifinals. There are TV's where every table can see. Usually they will have a mix of movie, a novela, or a Liga MX game on. With the World Cup, they have the game on all TVs and the sound on too. The lunch crowds were larger than normal for the two games. Most of us had finished our food and were waiting for half time before we left. It isn't a bar, but for noon time futbol, it is a great atmosphere.

That part was confusing! I think the app should have told me that beforehand bc I was going to stop in at Veggie Grill to ask if they knew where Mas Veggies was. There's plenty of parking in front; it's free. It's a vast space of many stores & restaurants so there's plenty of space to park. The interior is very well spaced, with ample seating available. My order was ready within 10 minutes of me placing it! The burrito was AMAAAAAAZING. Even though it was huge, I was able to cleanly eat it while driving to university. It was wrapped really well, lol, because it didn't come apart on me or my clothes or the interior of my car. I would definitely recommend this place for take-out!!!!!!!

We originally stopped by just to try their ceviche, but what made us stay was the chips and salsa! The chips were warm, crispy, and the salsa had a nice kick that really stood out. That convinced us to stay and have dinner. We ordered the ceviche and a burrito plate (carne asada), and both were delicious! The ceviche and salsa was so good that we ended up ordering more for our get-together during the NBA Finals weekend. It was a hit. We did add more lime for our preference. Monica took care of us, and she was wonderful -- very friendly, welcoming, and attentive. Great service always makes a dining experience even better. Only thing to note is that parking is a bit small, so it can get tight depending on the time you go. If you're in the area and looking for good Mexican food, definitely give Alfredo's a try. We'll definitely be back!

We definitely had enough for a 2nd meal the next day. The salsas are made fresh and complement every dish. Will definitely be ordering from here again!

I figured it would be less disruptive to the staff if I placed the order using the website instead of calling it in. I When I checked out the tax amount was too large and discovered there was a 5% service fee for using the website hidden in a tax and fee item. The fee is not identified on the website and is hidden on the checkout screen. I found the fee by clicking the information icon for the tax and fee line. When I picked up my food I asked about the fee, but they were not aware of a service fee, and noted the website is operated by a third party. I sent messages to both the website contact and the restaurant's customer service and have not received any response from either. As I mentioned the food is good and we intend to keep on ordering food from there. Though, DO NOT USE THE WEBSITE TO PLACE AN ORDER, THERE IS NO SERVICE FEE FOR CALLING IN YOUR ORDER.

Being locals in Lomita I can't believe we passed this place up. As you enter you have the menu's on the left and then you make line to order.

She greeted me with a smile as well and was very good with her customer service after I put my order In there was a dinner rush and she got that line down quick. We ordered some of their tacos and they were very good I loved that the corn tortilla was sturdy cause the tacos are well served. We got a Rocking Shrimp, steak & fish taco they were all delicious and again big portion. We also tried their Fish and Chips and they were HUGE and came with fries and they were well seasoned and just the perfect crunch and had it with a side of coleslaw as well. Their Salmon Bowl & Rocking Shrimp bowls were very big portions that can be shared for future reference. We were happy with all our choices and can't wait to try more of their stuff. Happy customer for sure. The sitting area is neat, you have a great amount of seating inside but also outside Al fresco. When I was here to pick up my food it was a full house so their food is good. They have a salsa station along with other condiments that's very clean and organized. Overall great place and so happy it's close to home and they have a variety of food and selections for all to enjoy.
