The Chori-Man

I finally swung by Chori-Man after hearing everyone rave about their house-made chorizo, and…read morehonestly, the hype is real. I'm a bit of a chilaquiles snob, but these are easily some of the best I've had in town. The chips actually held their crunch even with all that sauce, which is a rare find. I got mine with their maple habanero chorizo--the perfect balance of sweet and kick. It's a small, local spot, but the flavor they're pushing out of that kitchen is massive. The Breakdown: * Quality: You can tell the chorizo is artisan. It doesn't have that greasy, heavy feeling of the mass-produced stuff. * The Sauce: Perfectly seasoned. Not too salty, just purely flavorful. * Service: Super chill and friendly. It feels like a neighborhood staple because it is. Pro-Tip: Parking can be a bit of a hunt right there on 9th, so just be prepared to walk a block. Also, grab a pound of the loose chorizo to take home for breakfast the next day--you'll thank yourself later.

I'm so disappointed that I had a bad experience. I've been wanting to try the burritos for so long…read more It lacked flavor.. it was soooo bland and mushy. I paid to add cilantro and I'm not sure if I even got any. If I did, it was space. For an almost $20 burrito, so not worth it. The stars are for the yummy Fresca and the potatoes.

We politely let the cashier and the cook know because we thought maybe there was an issue with the meat. Instead of apologizing or trying to make it right, we were simply told, "That's how they sold us the meat." There was no concern, no acknowledgment of our complaint, and no effort to replace the tacos or offer another option. I understand that suppliers can sometimes send poor-quality products, but that's not the customer's fault. Good customer service is about taking responsibility for the experience you're providing. A simple apology and an offer to replace the tacos would have gone a long way. Unfortunately, the lack of customer service was more disappointing than the food itself. Based on this experience, I won't be returning.

I was in town for a dear friends wedding from Las Vegas and got a late night craving for tacos. I of course reached out to some local consigliere's I knew from back in the day to see where they would go and one recommended "Tacos Gallito" the other said she could care less about tacos; but everything I had read online sounded like Gallitos better days were behind them and now their tacos weren't as good, smaller and charged more. But not here. They stuffed those tacos. Had plenty of fiiiiiixxiiiins for the tacos and Marla who was taking orders was as sweet as can be and even gave me a little sample of their consommé they use for their Birria. I got 8 tacos (2 carnitas, 2 asada, 2 pastor, & 2 cabeza) Gun to my head I would rank the Carnitas and Pastor last out of those; but they had these fish and shrimp tacos I'm getting next time I'm in San Pedro scouring the city for tacos I'm getting drunk at Godmothers tonight and might go back for Round 2 tonight

Took my first bite and all I got was rice and lettuce, why lettuce!? Finally got down to the meat and the carnitas were good but very little meat compared to other burritos in town. My wife didn't even finish hers. Great spot for tacos but I'll buy my burritos at my favorite taco stand. To say the burritos were a disappointment is an understatement.

I went here on a recommendation on Reddit's r/SanPedro page, and I'm glad I went. The kind redditor…read moresuggested the tacos, so I ordered 3 chicken tacos with a side of beans and rice. There were a few things that really stood out and made me very happy that I gave it a try. First, the red sauce in the salsa bar: very legit! Spicy, but very flavorful! I also tried the green chili/tomatillo sauce, which was also very good and good counter point to the unctuous marinated chicken. And they don't go cheap on the meat. Secondly, the corn tortillas were made in house and were hefty! Very tasty and held together where other tacos need two of the thin store-bought variety to have a hope to stand together. Very good. If I had the tiniest critique, I would say to add a tiny bit more salt to them, but I have a theory why they may go scant on it, and I respect that. Third, the beans and rice: The beans were very simple, but simply good. It takes a lot of guts to make and serve simple pinto beans boiled with salt. I know! What a concept! But simply delicious, and made to complement the rest of the food, and not distract from it. It takes a lot of confidence in my opinion for a restaurant to have such faith in their food to leave some that should be simple, simple. The same was true for the rice: simply well made, not over done with a ton of ingredients. It was well made: the individual grains didn't stick together. And it was unctuous without being overbearing. If I had to guess, I would say that they used broth and chicken fat. Simply good, and a complement to rest of the meal. Now to my theory. It makes sense that the masa would be light on the salt because it is the same masa that they use for pupusas, and the filling for pupusas (I just like that word) is savory and well seasoned. I'll let you now next time I got back and try the PUPUSAS! ;)

I usually baseline judge a Mexican spot on their salsas and their carne asada. Salsas are not great. I tried all of them and none of them stood out.

Lengua was kind of shredded into pieces and by the end of the taco I didn't really want to keep eating it. Chicken tasted like it was seasoned with a ramen packet or something just odd seasoning.
