    Carne Steak Taco ( Asada)
    AARON Z.

    Amazing tacos! This hole in a wall serves some really good Mexican food. The lady taking our order was very friendly and the tacos came out quick. The carne asada was some of the best. I will definitely be back when I'm in the area

    Breakfast items menu

    Came here around 11am on Father's Day to get breakfast burritos. We ordered directly from their website and paid online. I did show up a little early but the woman working at the counter was so kind I did not mind waiting at all! The place is decorated very cute, with beautiful pairings and lively music playing. We got a chorizo breakfast burrito, pastor breakfast burrito and a calabaza taco. Everything was DELICIOUS! The burritos were very filling, flavorful and the tortillas fantastic! The taco was the same, well marinated and perfectly cooked. We will be back for sure! (I was halfway through my burrito and realized I did not take a photo!)

    Most tacos here are $1.99/ea. I ordered Al past and asada tacos. Both were perfectly seasoned, served hot and tasty. They deliver to your table. Nice touch The deliver two types of sauce to your table. Food comes out fast. The vibe here is very "social". Noise level is elevated but the staff appear to be having fun. Nice folks! I'll be back!

    Large Steak Quesadilla ( Asada) and 2 Steak Taco ( Asada)
    Emily C.

    I haven't been here since like late 2018 simply because I moved a few times. When I moved back to this area 3 yrs ago this place wasn't on doordash. Today we reconnected via DoorDash! The tacos are as good as i remember. I ordered a quesadilla (asada) and two asada tacos. I didn't realize how much you get with the quesadilla (i wasn't expecting the rice and beans). Potential 5 star but gave 4 because I won't yet know if quality will be consistent. I would want to come back and try the torta

    Customized veggie burrito

    Ordered customized veggie burrito which has... green & yellow peppers, spinach, cheese, beans, potato, sooooo good! Home made cooking kind taste I love. A lady was so nice, welcoming , good energy and friendly, I'll def come back for more. Saw their Pupusa handmade & served one that I need to give a try in the future. Thank You ladies!

We ordered a variety of dishes to share, and everything was presented really well. The enchiladas were flavorful, the grilled fish was cooked perfectly, and the tortillas with the short rib were a table favorite. Portions were great for sharing, and the sauces really tied everything together. Service was friendly and our server checked in on us throughout the night without making us feel rushed. It did get a little busy, so there were a few waits between courses, but nothing that took away from the experience.

Our waiter then told us we needed a specific Dine LA reservation, something that was never mentioned when I called or when I made the reservation. I've been to plenty of Dine LA restaurants and have never experienced this. The service wasn't necessarily bad, but it was very dismissive. No apology, no real explanation--they basically just brushed it off. Thankfully, the food saved the night! The Michelada oysters were TO DIE FOR--seriously one of the best oyster flavors I've ever had. We also had the short rib plate, which was delicious. The outdoor atmosphere and decor are really cute too. I would come back, but ONLY for those oysters--definitely not for the service.

    My friends and I recently did an LA taco tour, visiting various storefronts to find our favorite…read morespot. Sonoratown was our first stop as it was highly recommended by my boyfriend's brother, and it did not disappoint. It immediately earned a spot in our top five favorite taco spots for carne asada in all of Southern California! The location that we went to is located in between Elysium DTLA and Perfumeria Starlux on E 8th St in downtown LA. There is only paid(?) street parking around the area that could be extremely difficult to find during work days. Because we couldn't snag a spot, my friends and I opted for takeout and didn't end up eating until about 30 minutes later. Despite the travel time, the tacos were still absolutely incredible--I can only imagine how spectacular it tastes fresh! My friends and I ordered the carne asada tacos, and my boyfriend opted for the cabeza. Before I even took a full bite, I tasted a piece of the loose carne asada and was blown away; it was perfectly cooked with a wonderful tenderness and deep smokiness. The use of a single, thin, handmade flour tortilla--rather than the standard double corn--was a total game-changer and exactly how I preferred my tacos. The salsas were equally impressive, offering fantastic flavor and a great kick. My boyfriend's cabeza taco was just as standout, featuring super-tender meat with a rich, savory profile. Wowowow! Between the exceptional meat quality, bold flavors, and great value, this is easily one of the best taco spots I've visited. It's a huge bummer that they don't have a location down in San Diego, but we will definitely be back!

Mostly crowded streets with metered parking. I got the chicken burrito. The tortilla was definitely the highlight and what really makes the burrito. Fresh, flavorful, and great texture. The filling itself tasted more like a standard burrito otherwise. Also tried the avocado sauce, which costs extra but was really good and worth adding. Overall solid spot. I'd come back to try the beef burrito and the chivichanga next time.

Cute building with lovely patio seating: from the trailing hanging pothos plants, Spanish tiles, to relaxing latin-house music the vibes were welcoming. I'm not much of a drinker though, when asked if I wanted to make my pina colada a "float" I thought incorrectly about ice cream. It was graciously explained that you take an additional shot of rum and float it on top of the drink or mix in to make it extra boozy. The pina colada is top notch they hollow out a real pineapple to make the drink and it's the size of your face! The watermelon cocktail was delicious and there is also a mezcal option. Tasted like if a watermelon aqua Fresca was combined with a margarita, there is a hint of salt that brings out the fruit sweetness. We special ordered a bunch of different proteins and vegetables at half portions to make a feast: Aguachile- Light refreshing starter, kanpachi perfectly marinated and great for the summer heat. Crispy potato- Phenomenally done fingerling potatoes. Whipped beans- Carnitas on top made this dish. Fried chicken tacos- Found the chicken slightly on the dry side, if there was a creamy/thicker sauce would be even better... nothing wrong with flavor, good mild heat. I did enjoy the fresh shredded cabbage and carrots, reminded me of bahn mi. Empanadas- Loved the acidity of the sauce that cut through the fattiness of the ground meat. Light shell. Crispy Squash flower- Delicate crunch, like an angelic version of a jalapeno popper. Lamb chops- Definition of "treat-yourself" luxurious meat lollipops. Celery salad- Simple dish but the lemon flavor and tartness really helped break up the richness of other dishes. Churros- Light crunch and small, petite dessert. The thin caramel sauce is addicting. Fine dining, for those special occasions or if you just want to splurge for a morale boost highly recommend this restaurant. Valet parking or park across the street or around the corner in a lot for $5-10.

I was worried it had been so built up in my mind it wouldn't be worth the line and everything but it was great and would come back (and will!!)
