    Dirty and sticky tables
    Jackie M.

    Absolutely NOT! We saw this place on TikTok. The videographer did a good job selling this place. Greasy! Dirty and sticky seats and tables. A simple little bowl of menudo is $15. They give you 3 little tortillas. If you want more thats an additional charge. Missing seasoning. Had to add salt because it was just flavorless. No hominy in their menudo. The Birria "ramen" $10 was greasy af too. Its just instant cup of noodles!!! I thought actual ramen noodles like i've had at other places. Your cholesterol will be high after eating this. Do not recommend this place. Plenty of better places, even the cans of Juanitas is better. Such a disappointment.

    Birria Ramen

    Absolutely delicious!!! Such friendly service, everything we ordered lived up to the hype. The cleanest and most delicious menudo broth . the birria and tendon taco was off the charts tasty. The handmade tortillas, ever so meaty and tender birria mixed in with the yummy tendon was awesome. Then came the birria ramen. Another delicious broth, ample tender birria. I am in love with this place. Been aware of it for about a month and I finally checked it out today. We loved the clientele, the music in the background, the cleanliness and at-home vibe. We will be back, very soon!

    Menudo and Taco Birria

    Went to try their famous Menudo and I wasn't disappointed. It is one of the best Menudo I ever had. The Generous amount of Tendons and tripes are so fantastic plus the broth is the BEST! Their Tacos are soulfully tasty and yummy! Reasonable price that fits the budget. Everyone should check this place out. Miguel was so friendly, courteous and fun to talk to. This place is a go to joint to fix your Menudo cravings! +AAA

    Finally tried out the birria tacos, ramen and quesadilla! Super delicious and friendly staff, thanks for opening Downey

    Had to dump out all the broth to find the best part mind you this was to orders or a full pot

    Went this morning after seeing all the good reviews, paid about 50 for 1 Hoya full and 2 birriah tacos the tacos were good lots of flavor , but the menudo was a rip off they promised nervio and Pata. We literally just got broth and 1 Pata very lil nervio and stomach. I also thought I paid extra for hand-made tortillas and ended up getting store bought wtf is that about . Anyways i feel I deserve a refund

    This is the best menudo I have ever tasted it reminds me of my mom used to make this kind of Menudo the only thing they don't put Harmony just put some Harmony in it it is so delicious

    Fire!!!!

    Great service, delicious menudo bien calientito and the tendon !! Come early they run out fast!

    Tacos Don Goya is hands down one of the best taco spots in Downey. The tacos are always fresh, and…read morethe homemade tortillas make a huge difference. Everything on the menu is packed with flavor, and you can tell they use quality ingredients. The salsa has just the right amount of kick, and the guacamole is fresh, creamy, and absolutely delicious. There's almost always a line out the door, but it's well worth the wait. The food comes out fresh every time, and the quality is consistently outstanding. If you're looking for authentic tacos with amazing homemade tortillas, incredible salsa, and delicious guacamole, Tacos Don Goya is a must-try. I can't recommend this place enough!

    I have been to Goyo only 3 times. It's so close to my house I wish I loved it. My rating is based…read moreon flavor, service, and overall tacos. I got 4 tacos (2) of Alpastor (2) Buche . (1) Mulita of Alpastor. The cost tacos are $4.25 each Mulita $6.25. With that said you would think the tacos would be top notch for the price. Alpastor 2/5, flavor is bland and not that good. Buche 1/5, horrible flavor they're not good at all. Mulita 3/5, was the best thing I got because of the cheese. Salsas 2.5/5 decent but not great. Tortilla: 2/5 Hand made, but under cooked. Service: 1/5 horrible customer service, server doesn't even look at you, and when you ask a question they get mad. The cashier is just as bad attitude. Overall I'll never come back, for the price there are better street tacos. Just have to drive to them.

    Happy mother's day to all moms…read more After church brunch for my wife who's a mom. Bring her to one of her favorite places. Busy as usual and shout out to the young lady counter staff. Vibrant personality bilingual so knowledgeable. Basicly she's got this counter handled! Great customer service. Oh and she is wait staff as well My Wife ordered Birria tostada bowls and I went back to the wet burrito. Horchata is blended well. Hispanic music flowing makes a comfortable sit in. I may have mentioned before They are POS by clover. That have beer, bottled sodas and cans. That have a unisex restroom Small salsa bar. If you want consomé to go they have 3 sizes. They have high chairs as well. This place is hard to find just look in the left corner of the strip mall and there they are. If your in a rush be patient the food is made to order so that means it will take a few. This mom and pop prides themselves on good food that also do catering and today I have seen a lot of pick ups of trays of Birria Wow Tostada bowl is awesome well plated shell looks quality. My wet burrito is the bomb with avocado sliced on top. Haven't found a place to top this. Food taste fresh and good taste This establishment is clean and cozy yet booming. One of my wife's and I spots we recommend

    Great tasting birria. Portions could be larger for price,…read morebut then again it's 2026. Wish the business well.
