    I stumbled here randomly on my lunch break while I was at 711 next door so I decided to give it a shot. I was welcomed by the friendly owner whose name is Garo very nice guy. I ordered 4 tacos 2 asada and 2 pastor and each taco had an amazing taste one after another. The place was very clean and maintained along with the salsa bar and the food was great. I'll definitely be back to try the burrito next time.

    Don't let the small parking stop you!!! It's a great location to stop in and grab some Burritos and Tacos. They have plenty of seating and always something eye catching on the TV. They get your order correct every time and mark it to let you know what's in each container. Their service is amazing will continue to visit this location!! They got great Salsa, give you grilled green onion and have the best bean and cheese burritos. Cannot get enough!!

    Tucked away in a small shopping plaza on lassen desoto, a nice little hole in the wall Mexican food place. Usually get a carne asada combination plate. $17.47 after tax but it's worth it as you get bang for your buck. The owner is really nice. Food is good.

    Fast Taco is a small Mexican grill that sits at the corner of Lassen and De Soto in Chatsworth. It is located in a small strip mall. Inside one finds two round tables and wall side sitting areas, all of which have bar stools. This small restaurant is very simple, and it also has a salsa bar. All the salsas and condiments are prepared fresh in house ever day. The owner told me he has had this business since 42 years. I ordered two carne asada tacos upon entering and was told that I would also get complimentary chips. This is the first time I was never asked to pay after ordering at a counter. After sitting at my table with the chips and helping myself to the Rojo and Verde salsas I began to eat. Soon, the carne asada tacos arrived. And let me tell you, there was a lot of meat there. It comes with cheese (just a little for me), avacado and scallions on the side. I added chopped white onions to my taco and ate it with the salsa rojo (my favorite). The carne asada was prepared well and the tacos were good. Scallions could have been grilled more for char and better flavor. A few minutes after I began eating, I realized that I had not paid and went up to the counter saying so. The manager said I could do it later, gesturing for me to go back to my table. Service here was warm, courteous and very friendly. The manager was most polite and made you comfortable the moment you walked in and till you walked out. A very comfortable setting with high marks for pleasantness. This was a good find for me. Go give it a try.

    Chicken Tacos

    First I would like to say the STAFF is AMAZING!!!! My chicken tacos were very dry and they forgot my cheese. Some of the pieces were very hard I couldn't chew it. I prefer limes in stead of lemons. The restaurant is very clean and the staff was so nice I will give them another try! We will see.....

    Carne asada burrito. Really good!

    I'm so glad I tried this place, I never even knew it existed considering it's hidden in 7 eleven parking lot. I only discovered it from yelping. The carne asada burrito is legit! I'm impressed and will be returning for sure! They even give you free chips and salsa unlike some places.

    Carne Asada Combo Plate
    Randy B.

    Always looking for a good Mexican food place, there are many around of course, but not all good. Fast Taco is one of the good ones out there, this was the first time we checked it out. I must say the positive reviews hold up. The staff was very friendly, I believe the owner was the one who helped me, very nice Guy, seems genuinely happy when working with his customers. Gave me plenty of containers for salsa, cilantro, Onions, etc. all the plates were clearly marked and he made it a point to recap everything, give me a big container of Salsa and a big bag of chips with my order. Thank you. We got a Pollo Burrito combo, an Asada Burrito Combo, a Two Taco combo with Carne Asada and a Carne Asada Plate Combo. All the combos come with Rice, beans, salad and sour cream. (The Carne Asada plate also come with guacamole . The Burritos also have guacamole added to them. The meats were flavored perfectly and the rice and beans were tasty, we were very full with food to spare and happy. Everything tasted excellent! I loaded up on the green salsa, nice and spicy. They also have a nice red salsa that had some spice and sweetness to it and another red salsa that has a great Smokey flavor. I loved them all. Also packed away some cilantro and radishes, everything was great. One tip I forgot to add, this is a "Cash Only" spot, so many people don't carry cash these days, so make sure you grab some before going. Enjoy!

    Is it cash only?

    No they take credit card and cash must try place is delicious highly recommended

    When will this place open again? Dying for their quesadillas & burritos

    THIS MONDAY !!!! 1.27.2020

    So just wanted to update ya'll.. they arent open and will be opening maybe sometime mid February 2019 😭😭. Anyone tried the Santa Monica location?

    Just drove by this past Saturday 12/28/19 and looks like they advanced heavily and will open soon. I have no ETA on when but should be early 2020.

    Ok, I'm dying for their nachos. Once I was in there and heard the boss talking about some place in Simi. Anyone know if the owners have another location to tide me over until they (please Lord) reopen?

    There's another Fast Taco in Santa Monica on Ocean Park run by another branch of the family. Food is very close in flavor and quality.

    Anyone know if they relocated or just closed? :(

    I placed a call to the number on their menu and here on Yelp and spoke with one of the owners. He told they would be reopening in 5 months, so hopefully in November.

    Whats the Sq ft?

    I'll take a tape measure with me next time I feel like getting a burrito

The service was impeccable--everyone was attentive, friendly, and made the whole experience feel special. We had to get the Michelada Oysters again because I had been craving them since our last visit. They were just as amazing as I remembered--fresh, perfectly seasoned, and seriously addicting. For Dine LA, I started with the Tostada Campechana, which was like an elevated ceviche with scallops, tuna, yellowtail, avocado, and a citrus sesame sauce. Everything tasted super fresh and the citrus gave it the perfect balance. The Bone Marrow Mole was rich, flavorful, and came with a generous portion and toast. For my main course, I had the skirt steak, which was cooked perfectly--tender, well-seasoned, and delicious with the green sauce. The homemade tortillas were amazing too. We ended with the Dulce de Leche Panna Cotta, and it was the perfect finish--creamy, smooth, not overly sweet, and so good we practically cleaned the plate. Amazing food, great portions, beautiful atmosphere, and excellent service. Ka'teen definitely delivered. I would absolutely come back again.

    What a surprise! My friend and I visited for restaurant week…read moreand I'd give it a 9/10! The drive there was a bit iffy due to location but surprisingly the street that the restaurant is on was clean and felt pretty safe! I chose to park on the street but I'd advise to valet ($15) for safety purposes. We walked into a concrete built up newish area that had a brewery and another Michelin rated restaurant across the courtyard. The entire area was inviting! The restaurant felt like we took a dinner vacation to Cabo which was recipe for a relaxing evening! We ordered from the restaurant week menu which for us consisted of Ceviche, Guac w/delicious fresh tortilla fresh chips, whipped beans, snapper, bbq chicken, empanadas and basque cheesecake. All were great!.. we just wanted a larger portion of everything! I'd recommend and will definitely go again! I love restaurant week!

    Went back to Dama for their Dine LA menu so I thought I'd post so you don't miss out. For starters…read moreyou get GUACAMOLE, WHIPPED BEANS AND A CEVICHE TOSTADA. Yes, you get all three so no hard choices have to be made. My first impression of the beans was that they were no biggie but last night they were fire! I almost ordered a plate to take home. You have been warned the ceviche tostada has a kick but squirt some lime on it if you need to and you will survive. As for the guacamole, it's guacamole - need I say more? For my entree I went with the snapper, which came with escabeche, lime, pineapple, cilantro, green onion, and chili rub. In the past, I've strictly stuck to their small plates and I feel that's still the way to go. Nothing wrong with my snapper, I just love all the other little plates more. I went with one other person and only one piece of cheesecake came out. Supposedly it was a bigger slice but looked like an average size to me. This cheesecake is made with manchego cheese so don't expect an overly sweet treat. I did enjoy it. But, I also ordered their flan that is only available in August and I found that to be better than the cheesecake. Get both as one is limited edition. We also got the fried chicken tacos. We were told they were pretty spicy but I felt the ceviche was spicier. They were tasty but did not live up to their oxtail tacos they used to have. Also, squirt some lime on these tacos - you're welcome. This is one of my fave places to dine during peak weather season. Go check them out. Tip: street parking is available if you get there at 5 otherwise valet is $15. Trust, you do not want to park your car anywhere other than that one block where the restaurant is located.

While I am by no means a connoisseur of Oaxacan food, I am perplexed at the number of reviews raving about this restaurant. It's fine, there nothing wrong with the food, but I, personally, don't think it's rave worthy. I've been here 2x now. I'll come back to a place especially when it's on a "best of" list and I wasn't impressed. I always think it may have just been a bad day or perhaps I didn't order well. Next time I see this spot on a "best of" list I'm going to find out WHAT dishes I should've ordered.
