    Luis was a cool guy and got me hooked with some samples of Agua frescas. Dragon fruit is a must try.

    I originally was looking for bbq brisket in bellflower, but parking was bad so I stumbled upon El Gallo Giro in bellflower! I ordered a chicken torta with avocado, green chili, green sauce, cheese and tomatoes, and lettuce. It was one of the best tasting tortas I've had in a long time! I love tortas, I'd search for a good torta near Long Beach! Service was prompt, she called my order out and I dug into the torta! The meal was tasty and affordable! Check out El Gallo Giro if you're into tortas like me!

    Cubana Torta (Torta Cubana)

    Very nice people, the moment I walked in Naty and Oscar welcomed us. I bought 2 tortas and they were good very flavorful. The eating area is clean, will likely come again.

    Tortas, tamales, tacos, burritos, all with your choice of protein, chicken, pork, chicken, and in your favorite traditional Mexican food style and flavor. They also serve breakfast and have a couple of soups on the menu. You can order and eat outside or use the drive-through. The staff is friendly and you're not gonna break the bank because the prices are reasonable. It's clean and brightly lit. Plenty of parking.

    Agua de horchata and dragon fruit & mango.

I only waited a few minutes after. I received my food. It was well packaged. They offered me some salsa. I took the red, green and the bag with some lemons and cucumber. I ordered a vampiro with carne asada and al pastor(con todo), chicken taco, birria taco ( con todo) I'm going to start with my favorite, to my least favorite. Vampiro: visually it looked very appetizing. I was excited to try it. The looks were not deceiving! It was flavorful crunchy. It made me happy when I bit into it. My only Takeaway would be that it was a bit greasy. Aside from that, I loved it! Chicken taco: this one surprised me. When I bit into it, it had a nice smoky flavor in the meat. Very tasty! With a dash of the red and green salsa with a lemon squeeze! it really elevated it more. My only Takeaway would be a little dash of some salt overall I enjoyed this taco and it was delicious. Birria taco: this one made me sad. It was my least favorite and I love Birria. It lacked flavor the meat was chewy even with the salsa and lemon, I hated it. Super greasy although it looked beautiful it was not it. I wish I could have scored it better. I spent $14.80 I think this included the tip.

Nothing fancy, but it's pretty spacious and clean. I ordered three different kinds of tacos -- asada, al pastor, and birria. Most places charge extra for birria, but the price is the same and included in the Taco Tuesday special! The tortillas are homemade and delicious. The meat was all flavorful and tender. There were a few bits of fat in the meat that I spit out, but overall it was pretty good. The guacamole sauce is really good, and they're very generous with it. I enjoyed their green salsa as well. Be careful of the orange/red habernero salsa -- it has a kick that creeps up on you! The line can get fairly long and they do a good amount of take-out. However, the line moves pretty fast, and they assemble the tacos to order. I'll definitely be back to try some of their other menu items and the agua fresca!

I'm also a sucker for a place that has a salsa bar (they also have beans, carrots and etc on the salsa bar) They have up close private parking The inside is very spacious with really big comfortable chairs. You can also see an open kitchen where they are cooking / cutting up the meat Each time I've came here, Lucy has taken care of us. -you walk up to the counter and order -they give you a number -then they call your number and you pick up your food. -Everything is self served. You get your own drink refills (I always get the fountain drink. But they do have other types) -you get your own napkins on the salsa bar -you get your own utensils on the salsa bar -you get your own salsa, beans and etc on the salsa bar -you seat yourself -you clean up after yourself and throw your food away and put your tray away I haven't had anything here that I did not like. I'm not a huge fan of chicken, but the chicken nachos are amazing. The chicken has such a good flavor to it The Birria is not overly salty like at a lot of places Service is friendly Ambiance is nice with really comfortable chairs and a ton of TVs Food portions and quality are great

It was good, but I was thinking that this might be the best ever. It wasn't that. Just as good as any taco truck. Still good, but I'm glad I went because it wasn't special for me and I no longer have to be bound by curiosity. I'll be able to get this experience elsewhere for a lot less money.

Would just get the flour next time! It's a food truck. There was no line to place our order but getting our food took around 15 min. Food came with onions, peppers, salsas and pico de gallo! Would def get this more often if it was closer. They had seats under a tent to eat and street parking in the neighborhood.

From the moment you arrive, the vibe is lively and welcoming--perfect for grabbing a quick bite or sitting down to enjoy a full meal. Let's talk about the star of the show: the birria tacos... these are straight fire . The tortillas are perfectly crisped on the outside, soaked in rich, flavorful consommé, and packed with tender, juicy meat that's seasoned to perfection. Every bite is loaded with savory goodness, and dipping them into that deep, flavorful broth just takes it to another level. Easily some of the best birria tacos around. And you cannot leave without trying the churros. Fresh, warm, and coated in just the right amount of cinnamon sugar, they're the perfect sweet ending to an already amazing meal. Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside--exactly how churros should be. Overall, Papi Tacos & Churros delivers on flavor, quality, and experience. Whether you're going for the hype or just looking for legit, delicious food, this spot does not disappoint. Definitely coming back for more!

    The O.G. Burrito here is hands-down the OG and so good! It's packed with birria, cheese, rice,…read morebeans, and salsa. The burrito comes with their consome, which complements the burrito so well. I also ordered their quesataco with birria and asada, regular asada taco, and their homemade churros. Out of the tacos, I liked the asada quesataco the best. For the churros, one order comes with two. I got an order of churros with lechera and another with Nutella. The churros were okay - maybe I expected more because the churros are made in-house. They do satiate the sweet tooth cravings, but I wouldn't go out my way for these. Their horchata, on the other hand, is really good (on the pricer end)! They have a few tables and benches inside and a decorative, fun, and vibrant outdoor seating. They're located on the corner of Rosecrans and Pioneer in the Norwalk Town Square plaza so you won't miss it!
