    Chicharrón
    Jason V.

    I've never had quesadilla fritas before. They were amazing, and BIG. I got a chicharrón 1, and a couple of asada ones. The chicharrón 1 was good, but the asada joints were seasoned to the BONE! I know they don't have a bone, but that's how well they were flavored. When I seen the older Mexican lady in the truck making the food, I already knew what time it was. This truck is a must hit. Call ahead to place your order, because there is a bit of a wait

    Me and my group were going to a Rams game and I found this gem on Tik-Tok . We wanted something close by . Boy am I happy we went there because the Quezadillas Frito's were super delicious . My son had a Tostada de Tinga which he really liked . All the fixings were good too . My friends 9 year old boy whom is very picky he said also gave it a thumbs up so you know it was good . We'll definitely be back whenever we're in the area .

    Quesadillas Fritas

    LIFE CHANGING EXPERIENCE, I'm not even being dramatic! The quesadillas Fritas here are heavenly!!! The masa and cheese in there are incredible! And the topics on them are a cherry on top! Most popular: chicharrron, tinga, and hongo. I had one of tinga and one of asada. Of the two, I liked the asada best. Next time I would order an hongo one, it looked bomb! Such a tragedy they're located about an hour away from me, otherwise I'd eat here weekly. Nonetheless, it will be worth the drive when I do come back!

    It's the 3rd day of 2025 and if the food from this truck is any indication of what my 2025 food journey is going to look like, I'm ready for it!! I've wanted to stop by this truck just to see what it was all about but never did. Then I kept seeing influencers posting about it and thought now is a good time and today was the day. This owner took my order and she was just the most lovely woman ever. She gave me grandma vibes. I ordered several items. Far more than I could eat in one sitting but I didn't want to come back the same day if I really liked it. Well.......I LIKED IT....A LOT!! One word comes to mind "FLAVOR". Everything I ordered I was really good. The cheese pull on the Quesadillas Fritas was top tier. I don't mean to put a lot on it but it was good. I'm going back.

    Flautas de Pollo y Barbacoa Tostada de Tinga Quesadillas de pollo y Barbacoa

    We stopped by El Capitalino and everything we tried was AMAZING! We ordered the flautas, quesadillas, barbacoa, and a tostada de tinga -- every single item was full of flavor and perfectly made. The barbacoa especially was so tender and delicious! They also have seating right in front of their truck, which was super convenient, and the whole area was nice, clean. Great service, great food -- we'll definitely be back!

    Quesadillas fritas

    These fried quesadillas are no joke! Super crispy yet soft tortillas on the outside and delicious meats on the inside. What else would you need? The salsa they offer is also very good. I was pretty faded when I tried this but I don't think that's why I loved it! I will give it another try for sure!

    The fried quesadillas are amazing ! I got one with tinga de pollo! I want to try an asada one next time ! 1 was enough to hold me over till dinner time! Bring a friend so u can each order a different kind and share half and half ! Thats the plan!

    Our family makes these and it's very hard to find some that taste homemade but these are literally the best quesadillas fritas I've found.

    This taco truck is one of a kind..deep fried quesadilla, opened, and filled with one of there fillings. I had the asada . Crispy/soft taco with melted cheese, lettuce and sour cream and queso fresco. The asada feeling was tender and great seasoning.

    Quesadillas were really good, very cheesy and a great crunch to them. I had the chicharrón and asada. I would definitely go back.

Sorry we ate our tacos and burritos so fast that we forgot to take pictures. I offered to take family to Lax to check out this tip. Found the truck parked as stated. Luckily only one customer waiting for his big order. Customer(a regular)helped us pick out our order. There was only one guy manning the truck after 5pm. Chef and cashier all in one. Dorado taco (fried $2.75) Tues $1. 5/5 Birria taco (street soft$2.75) Tues $1 5/5 Birria burrito (huge!) $10 5/5 All served with onions & tomatoes, radish, lime, & salsa on the side if needed. Omg we all raved how good it was & generously filled with beef birria. Next time we would stop and eat here before or coming from Lax. Better than our regular stop at the burger joint for the out of town folks. Couldn't believed the regular prices are even better than what I pay in Riverside, Ca. We ran back & tipped the guy & told him we'll be back.

They always make sure to get the meat cooked to your liking and the sides are as savory as the meal itself. They provide you with vegetables that seem to have a amazing vinegary coating to them.

It's more like the "all the neighborhood folk know about it" food truck. It's in a neighborhood that I just began frequenting, and I've already ate here 3 times, with plenty more to come. They've got a $3.75 cheeseburger combo, complete with burger, fries, and can soda. What a deal. And the burger isn't a tiny one either - it's perfect! They don't list the prices for their other food items, but if I can get 3 tacos and the combo for only $6.75, you know it's cheap. One of the first times I ordered a burrito, the combo, and 2 drinks, and that was all about ten bucks! And they've got a very creamy avocado sauce/salsa. You can't call it guacamole because there's no thickness to it, but at least it isn't spicy like the rest of their stuff! Cash only!!

    I have had a chance to eat at Martin's Cocina y Cantina twice now...both times were before nearby…read moreconcerts. The location is only a few minutes away from the Forum, SoFi, Intuit Dome and the other entertainment venues in Inglewood. Super convenient with friendly and easy going vibes. The most recent visit was before a BTS concerts at SoFi. I was with friends who were major Army (IYKYK) from out of state who really wanted Mexican food. Since I had been to the restaurant last fall before a show, I suggested going and we had a great time. Not knowing how crowded it might be, I called and made reservations ahead of time and Miguel helped get everything set up. When we got to the restaurant, he was one of the staff members that helped us. We were also helped by Leslie throughout the lunch. Both she and Miguel were so friendly and helpful. On the way out, I had a chance to mention to Saul, who I think is the manager, how much we enjoyed the experience. While we were there, more and more BTS fans, aka Army, arrived and it was such a fun environment, especially for me who wasn't as "in the know"! The restaurant started playing the group's music, and everyone had a great time. The food and the drinks on both visits were great, and we had a fun pre-concert meal. I'm only in the area a few times a year when going to a show, but Martin's will now be my pre-concert, go-to restaurant.

    First time at Martin's and we will definitely be back to try some more options…read more Food: ° Taco Sampler - you get 6 tacos (2) Al Pastor, (2) Asada, (2) Chicken with guacamole, pico de gallo, cilantro, onions, and lime. These tacos were so good. Great flavor on all of them but my favorite was the al pastor and pineapple. Great choice for small groups. ° Ceviche Camaron Con Mango - this was my favorite of the day. The flavor was so good and it was a large portion, it came with sliced cucumbers dipped in tajin on the side. The dish had avocado slices with mango sauce smothered on top. The Tostadas were made fresh. Loved this dish. It's a must try. ° Chips and Salsa - the salsa is everything. You can literally put it on anything and everything. I cant believe how good it tasted. It's smoky, mild heat with a good mild consistency. We put it on the tacos and it changed everything. I would buy this salsa!! We also added guacamole and heads up it could use some salt and lime to enhance the flavor so we added it in ourselves. ° Steak Fajitas - This plate was so hot and stayed hot the entire time. The meat was well seasoned and they give you plenty for one person. The tortillas come wrapped in thin paper to keep them warm and you get rice and beans with sour cream and pico. It's a must try. Really good. ° Baked Salmon Roll (Sushi) - The roll was big and had flavor you get about 8 pieces and the salmon is cooked table side with a torch. This gives you the option to cook the salmon to your liking. I chose medium toasted. It's a really cool experience. The flavor was great I would order this again. They do need to get better soy sauce cups, the ones they have are too deep and its really a salsa bowl. ° Combination Plate - you can choose 2 or 3 items so of course I chose 3 items. A chicken Enchilada, Hard Shell Taco (chicken), and a Chile Rellano with red sauce, and Rice and beans, the red sauce had a strong tomato base that I didn't really like too much but the Enchilada, and Chile Rellano was still pretty good. The portions are just right and the plate stayed hot. ° Drinks - we ordersd a Strawberry Frozen Margarita, and a Cadillac Margarita both can be ordered in large sizes which we did and when i say those are large drinks, those are large drinks. The bar tenders was quick too and the drinks was made just right. Service: The staff did a great job and seated us quickly, he was polite, attentive, and checked on us when he saw plates empty or us looking for assistance. The staff was great!! Atmosphere: The restaurant has a good vibe with plenty of TV's to watch sports, the bar is big and their is plenty of seating its a pretty big restaurant but it is split into two different sides. So if your looking for a place with space for big groups they can accommodate. They also have music playing but not too loud so conversations are easier. Location: It's on La Brea Ave in inglewood CA near the corner of Regent St. Price: The prices are fair. It's about $20-$30 per person. Parking: The parking sucks. It's really bad but you can park around the corner on the street. It is paid meter parking.
