One of our favorites is the steak and shrimp fajitas, especially because they come with those colossal shrimp --everything is flavorful, fresh, and delicious! And of course, the drinks are just as enjoyable. Whether we're celebrating a special occasion or simply looking for a great place to enjoy a meal together, we know we can count on The Original Red Onion for great food, amazing drinks, and excellent customer service. We always leave happy and looking forward to our next visit! Highly recommend giving them a try--you won't be disappointed!

Fast forward to an event where a fellow Yelper told me how this was one of his favorite places. Done, I'm going! As high as my expectations were, The Original Red Onion beat them by a mile. Let's talk atmosphere. The restaurant interior is completely decorated; it's a theme park for the senses - absolutely beautiful. The service? Friendly and efficient. Chips and salsa come out quickly, as do your drinks and your meal. Speaking of food, a wide variety of delicious choices. One can keep it basic, or be adventurous. It was my first visit, but I still chose to do the latter - roast beef enchiladas with mole. Mole can take some getting used to, but I managed to get used to it right away - my meal was delicious! I'll get adventurous again on my next visit. (One can get the basics almost anywhere.) Also, a good choice of sides - more than just the typical refried beans and rice. (And, a serious salsa!) The Original Red Onion makes going out to restaurants fun again. Forget take-out, forget delivery services; get out there and dine again!

    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.

Service was very friendly and attentive and we were promptly seated and served fresh chips along with a trio of salsas which were fresh and had the perfect levels of spice. My son had the kids enchilada and enjoyed his meal. I ordered 3 tacos from the à la carte menu. The chicken was fine but the fish and shrimp were undercooked and I couldn't eat them, which is why I deducted the one star. The other deduction was for the underwhelming flavors in the meals themselves. Usually when a Mexican restaurant had amazing salsa, the same vibe carries through with the entrees , but unfortunately it wasn't my experience. I would probably try once more and edit my review based on a second experience.

They got a wide selection of Mexican food and the street tacos (and regular tacos) were the reasons for our visit. The food is pretty good. A little on the pricier side but you're also in the Riviera in Redondo Beach. The ambiance is nice. Great vibes. Laid back, nice spot to relax and socialize. Their drink menu is pretty wide as well.

Today was the asada vVda burrito. Deassada was fresh, tender and juicy with lots of flavor. All the other ingredients blended well. It was on a smaller side but just enough. Albondigas was the worst of the order. It was hardly a soup that brought savory broth feeling and tender meatballs that comfort you. Instead the broth was super bland, meatballs were flavorless and too firm to cut with the. Had lots of veggies which was a plus if you like sweet with veggies which I do. I just wish they were also tender, swimming and good broth. Most restaurant serve fresh chips and salsa which they did. Complimentary chips were hard. This also was too heavy on oregano. Ordered some guacamole but had to ounce for them to cook fresh tosadas so we could eat with the guac instead of the hard chips. $14 wasn't too bad for the price and the portion. I did enjoy the one fish taco that I ordered. Was huge portion but stacked so high that you could barely close the tortilla. This is the first time I bought a flour. Tortilla worked well for the taco. It was also bland but I was able to salvage it with some of their spicy salsa that I requested. Places are heavy on the alcohol and drink menu which likely is a draw. I actually really love the Paloma which was non-alcoholic. However, the food must meet the mark and today I am sad to say it missed on several points For my standards. I really did appreciate the staff who were all very helpful, super friendly and did their best to accommodate all of our asks. The location is nice right on the Redondo Beach strip with so many food options to choose from.
