Bomb a$$ tacos! Juicy, delicious, great variety. Each taco is like 4-5$, so pricey but worth it. Get you an agua de Jamaica

This is my go to spot for Breakfast the staff is friendly and the cooks have consistent flavor profiles. It's all about the huevo con weenie tacos! If you grew up in a Hispanic home it brings you back to that Mom just made breakfast feeling. This is a personal feeling but the bacon and egg slaps as well as does the chorizo one. Get one of each try it out ! If you are there after breakfast they offer a taco sample plate that has a little bit of everything they offer. Add a Quesadilla to any of these orders you won't be disappointed. The Aguas are delicious as well but if you're there in the morning and want to try something that no one else has down so well is the orchata cold brew for all the coffee lovers this is a must try. The Ambience is a relaxed taqueria vibe. read more

Guisados - Breakfast Tacos - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Becoming a City of Angeles staple, Guisado has defined a new class of taco enjoyment. With a creative twist on the standard taco, the new variety uses braised meats and authentic flavors to create some of the best tacos in the city. First-timers should start with their Sampler plate. Tortillas are freshly made in the traditional manner and this is the best way to figure out what flavors will be your favorites. This location was once a former neighborhood favorite Chinese restaurant before the street was named to honor Cesar Chavez. Parking is limited thus patience is required. read more

I've heard great things about guisados and stopped by this one to try them out. For lunch, I ordered a pescado and chuleta en chile verde. The order came out within 5 minutes. The chuleta en chile verde was incredible. The chicken was soft and juicy, while the sauce on top gave a nice kick. The black beans underneath also provided a different texture to the sauciness of the chicken. The pescado was not my cup of tea though. The taste was a bit odd to me and I realized that the cream was a bit off. After removing majority of the cream while keeping everything else, the taco tasted much better. Overall, I loved the chuleta en chile verde. That was one of the best sauce based tacos I've had. The pescado was not as good as I expected but I assume that it was more my own taste buds regarding the cream put on top. I definitely will come back and try the other meat tacos on the list. read more

Cant really say anything else that has not already been said about Guisados. Maybe just understanding these are tacos Guisaods. "Guisados" are basically stews, you wont find the traditional meats on tacos, rather delicious flavors. Every time I have been here place is always clean, staff is friendly and are used to tourists & non-spanish speakers. read more

Really good food the bean and cheese taco and the steak are the best option for me the Gaia's are very tasty service is fast.

Great flavors and prices, the habanero salsa was magnificent. Definately worth a visit while you're here. I had the sampler and the flavors were complex and thought out. Absolutely amazing. The only thing i kind of wanted was a regular taco hahhaa but i'm not complaining. Its amazing 8/10 read more

Guisado's is one of my go-to tacos spots in the city. I've never ever had a bad taco or experience here!!! This location is great and clean, and the staff are super friendly! Parking is a little tricky because it's a busy street, but there's a lot a block down and around the back that is cheap and usually empty! Okay now to the good stuff - the food! I absolutely love all the tacos I have tried here. If you're new to Guisado's (or just want a variety), you have to get the sampler! It's six mini tacos and you can mix and match whatever tacos you want (except the seafood ones). If you do this, just make sure to order a Camerones taco on the side because they are so yummy! read more

The history of this place brought me here. I love it's success! People line up out the door for their delicious food. Start with tacos and you'll stay for more. Very affordable. Drop in before a Dodger game. They have a decent parking lot. There's street parking and they recently added more parking down the street. This place is best eaten hot. Take out is popular. But you can bring a group to eat. Great choice! read more

Guisados - Birria Taco - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Needed to up my LA taco game and Guisados did not disappoint at all - a must-try for anyone in the area forsure!!! This spot is highly recommended by locals and visitors, so I knew I had to check it out. My partner and I came on New Year's Day (all their locations were open!!!) and both got our own sampler plates because it was both our first time. My top 3 were the chicharron, cochinita pibil, and mole poblano in this order. the rest were still good! cant beat the price on the sampler - theyre mini tacos so obviously small, but i got a good fill from the serving size. id say the tacos here are a bit more expensive than avg LA street tacos but id consider these tacos as a whole step up. you can taste the quality of the tortilla, and the meat and toppings are all more well rounded and intentional. The people working were really friendly and upbeat - which is dope considering it was a holiday :) It was not crowded and we had to wait maybe 5-10 mins for our food. Parking is hard to find but its LA, we drove around the residential area and found a spot a whole block away. read more

COVID-19: Social distancing is enforced at this establishment. All of the staff wears a mask. All customers are expected to wear a mask too. Some of the staff also wears gloves. There are some hand sanitizers available for customers to use. This place is available for take outs and has some indoor & outdoor seating available with limited capacity. They are also sanitizing in between customers. While I was grabbing my food from this establishment several days ago, I asked if they had any special offers and they weren't offering any at the moment. They currently don't have happy hour. They also do not allow pets in their establishment. Parking: The parking lot for this establishment is kind of non existent. It is mainly street parking, which can be difficult to find most of the times. You can find some parking garages or parking lots near the establishment, but those require money. Food: I ordered a horchata and a original sampler. Omg. Guisados have the bombest horchata and tacos ever. I am always a sucker for both of them. The horchata was very smooth and rich. They master the important balance between the creamy rice and cinnamon flavor. It's heaven in a cup. I can never make up my mind about which tacos I want, so I always just get the sampler. There are 6 mini tacos, which are just perfect for me. I love all of them, but my favorite taco is the chicharron. It is just so soft and crunchy at the same time. Man, just thinking about it is making my mouth water. It is perfection on a plate. Staff: The staff here are very friendly, quick, and efficient. They accept both cash and credit cards. There is no credit card minimum. read more

Comfortable, smells great and inviting. I love coming to this location. Parking is always easy with the paid lot a block away. I usually manage get street parking that's closer. The breakfast is my favorite. Before 11:30am or 11am. Today they had a delicious festive drink I've never seen before. Pumpkin Horchata!! I added cold brew . Drool. If it's not breakfast, I recommend the sampler mini tacos. I get mine with out chicharon, the giggly texture isn't my thing. They allow you to switch it out for other tacos. The Weenies taco for breakfast is my fave !! Chorizo up next. The garnish of potato or bean on them makes it so nostalgic. The things the put on their delicious homemade tortillas just blows my mind. Even though there are multiple locations, this is my fave one. read more

I love the food and the service!! Food is always freshly made! Staff always friendly !! The MUSIC THO!! Always so loud!! Not everyone wants to hear music so loud, can't hear your own thoughts! Can't even have a conversation if you sit and eat in the restaurant which is why I never eat here. Other than that everything is 5 Hopefully that can be changed..... pls lower the music read more

I really enjoyed this spot, and appreciated how they have options for my dietary restrictions. The staff also happily accomodated to my dietary requests. Their signature chipotle sauce it delicious. Their cheese is also very flavorful! I enjoyed their cheese quesadilla, which was like a traditional mexican quesadilla, tiny, and their black bean taco. They have a colorful variety of other tacos. read more

I highly recommend lunch here especially if you work nearby. The tacos are fresh and the food is a great price for what you're getting. Enjoy. read more

Favorite taco spot. From how busy this place gets, I'm sure many others agree. Back when gas prices were cheaper, I would drive roughly three hours for these tacos on numerous occasions. Six Taco sampler is my favorite option. A little bit of everything keeps the flavors fresh. Chicken Tinga and Cochinita Pibil are amazing. Prices are perfect. Very friendly staff and the wait time for your food order is pretty good. It is a bit noisy in there sometimes, but always a good spot to visit. It is much quieter when they first open in the morning. Heads up, the street parking is a bit tough at times and I have had to park three or four blocks away before (might be rookie numbers for others). I do not recommend if in a hurry due to the lack of parking available. read more

This place had been on my radar for a while. I decided to take a Monday off back at the beginning of March and celebrate my birthday by taking the Dodgers Stadium tour and planned on stopping here for lunch. Parking- we didn't see a parking lot and couldn't find a spot on the street it was located but we found a small lot about a block away Location- it is small and clean; the staff were friendly and efficient Food- got the mini taco sampler with 6 mini tacos for $8.25. I noticed on Yelp pictures that the price had gone up .75 cents from the end of 2019; the tacos are definitely mini and even though there were 6 I was still hungry...overall the tacos were pretty good...not as amazing as they look in pictures and some were definitely better than others; since I was still hungry I ordered a chorizo quesadilla to share with my son and at nearly $6 I believe it was overpriced *overall this place was good and I will go back but I was a bit underwhelmed due to maybe my high expectations that I had for this place...I will visit this place again but I won't be hurrying back...probably more of a low 4 stars (3.5 rounded up) read more

Some of the best tacos in Los Angeles! The shrimp tacos, and the breakfast tacos are my favorite - extremely flavorful and high-quality meats and sauces. The quesadilla taco is also incredible, love the taste of the cheese. The services is very fast, which is nice, served in a no-frills dining room, unfortunately the parking is a bit tough though, sometimes it's hard to find parking on the street next to the restaurant. read more

Guisados - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Homemade tortillas cooked to order. Meat is nice wrapped in these warm, tasty "blankets." There are a number of flavorful braised meats and seafood to satisfy any craving. Over the years, I have tried every one of their tacos, and although I have my favorites (cochinita pibil, bistro, tinga, and camarones), they are all delicious. They are humble and satisfying. No frills. Just amazing flavors. Make sure to add in an Armando Palmero to wash it down. Employees are kind, funny, and always helpful. read more

Fabulous service. Staff is friendly and accommodating. Very clean . Would definitely eat again at this establishment

I haven't eaten tacos in a couple of months and the best way to break the streak was by going to get the best tacos. I have a small gluten allergy and I was happy when the food they serve came in corn tortillas. I'm sure it probably have flour but my body didn't itch so it was probably small amount. I also have lactose intolerance but I just pop 2 lactaid pills and started eating it was soooo worth it! Plus a side of cheese tamale that was recommended by the cashier was sooo good! Washing everything down with champurado was the best! Loved their creamy and thicc champurado Ahaha after a stressful doctor visit this place was such a comfort For parking me and my friend parked 2 to 3 blocks away and I didn't feel so guilty eating such a yummy meal when we get to walk back to the car read more

Guisados - The mini tacos testers were so worth it! Along with champurado and melon fresca - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

The famous taco places of LA. Guisado was up there so I had to check it out and I was not disappointed. The food definitely lives up to the hype. Each bite has so much flavor that bursts into your mouth; you just want it more and more and not stop. I think I got almost one of each... The one that stood out all of them was steak picado and chorizo. Both of them had unbelievable flavors and they were so tender. The place gets very busy and seats are a premium. I unfortunately had to get it to go due to no seating which made the tacos a bit messy... (Try to eat at the place so the tortillas don't get soggy [also ruined my picture opportunity]). The parking kind of sucks too but that's LA for you. They are located within a private street so street parking gets a bit confusing (I still didn't know if where I parked was legal) and they do have parking lot that's run by another business. It is hella expensive so... Uber???? Worth all the trouble though for this delicious experience!! read more

Found this inside the tortilla, after taking a bite I seen hairs sticking out. Idk what it is but I ate some of it do better, I actually love guisados but this is disgusting. read more

A taco joint with so many vegan and vegetarian options! While I loved the sampler, the tacos are tiny, about 3 inches with toppings so I would recommend getting the individual tacos. Also, order the free sauces!! A must to have a delicious meal. Calabacitas 7/10 squash family veggies which aren't flavored spicy. I'd pass on this one unless you need some veggies in the mix. Hongos 8/10 Mushroom taco - I liked trying this in the sampler but not super flavorful, again resolved with side salsas Frijoles con queso 8/10 Black bean taco great with salsas Quesadilla 9/10 Unique with a cheese panel that taste like cotija, I could eat a lot of these! Simple but delicious Vegan Peppers 10/10 loaded tacos with peppers which are perfectly spicy, with avocado, this was my favorite taco Tamale Elote 10/10 the perfect dessert, sweet, cakey, sweet corn richness. Still can make it savory with salsas but I just loved it as a sweet end to my meal Horchata 10/10 mix the cinnamon sugar at the bottom to your taste - this was creamy, arroz con leche-esque goodness. It's really sweet and I could have probably split this with another person. But delicious! Quickly delivered to my home and a great lunch or dinner! read more

The food was great. I had a sampler plate of their tacos, and a quesadilla with chorizo. Everything came out quickly, the service was friendly, and their Jamaica drink was tasty. The salsas were good, but if you've never been there, ask for them on the side. Some are crazy spicy, some are decently hot etc. It wasn't very busy at the time we got there but a few people came in once we sat down. The tables were clean and there was a good amount of seating. read more

Great L.A. tacos. Well priced, great flavours, and quick. The tacos all have some level of spice. I really like: * Cochinita Pibil * Chicharron * Bistek en Salsa Roja Employees are nice too, and they also offer delivery via DoorDash. read more

Just want to take a second to thank the staff for going out of their way to make my little family feel so taken care of. I have been a server and restaurant manager for more than ten years and I know a genuine effort to create a hospitable ambiance when I see and feel it. The server Ana was really kind and attentive, warm and courteous. The cooks also very attentive and made us some delicious tacos de mole y hongitos con cilantro! They even sent us off with some arroz con leche for our little bebe even after we spilled our cup of horchata all over the table. What we thought was just gonna be a plate of tacos turned out to be such a special experience. Thank you from my familia to you all at Guisados. read more

Don't offer food you don't have available. Food tasted terrible and off as well. Didn't even offer to upsell me, had a mini meal and paid a lot for it. Too late to order from anywhere else. read more

10/10. I have to say that every single one of their tacos are DELICIOUS. Pictured here are the chorizo and chicken tinga, my personal favorite. Also love the shrimp and calabacita. Tortillas are made FRESH. They give the taco that extra soft goodness. Also recommend trying the sampler plate - this comes with about five smaller tacos if their best sellers. Service is quick and friendly. This location is located on the corner with no parking lot but you can definitely find a spot on the street and walk your way there. The inside the ambiance simple and original with windows that over look the tortilla comal, perfect small joint for some really good tacos. read more

We were looking for a good taco spot and after almost an hour of going through google and Yelp reviews we found this spot, and it did not disappoint!! The tacos were so good and reasonably priced for the size! Hand made tortillas too. I was full after 3, he had 4. He said he loved the quesadilla the best. I also had Agua de Melon and OMG IT WAS SO REFRESHING! He had the horchata and from experience horchata either hits or misses.. and at this location it HIT! Super satisfied with the food. Worth the trip. Totally recommend trying when in LA, and the place is filled with beautiful artwork (if you're a Star Wars fan like me you'll love some of the artwork on the walls ) IG: HungryHungryRach read more

Hipster taco joint in East LA that serves up pretty good tacos. I got a chiles toreado taco and a quesadilla taco. The quesadilla taco is pretty good- it's this soft taco with a block of cheese, not sure what kind, and this flavorful sauce. So overall its good. The chiles toreado taco, on the other hand, is so incredibly spicy! It comes with four different types of chillis and a spicy orange habanero paste, and just a little bit of mole. So basically the taco was almost entirely made up of different types of spicy chillis. Halfway through eating our chiles taco, both me and my friend started to tear up kind of badly. There were alot of pauses to take sips of our horchata to help with all the burning and numbness to our tastebuds. It was kind of a mess. Overall the chiles toreado taco was an experience that I'm glad I tried at least once, but I'm not sure I would get it again when I need to run back to the office after lunch- can't risk looking like I just had a breakdown ;) read more
