I was visiting my son in LA. He lives right around the corner from this restaurant, he'd never been here so here we went. The neighborhood is predominantly hispanic, I don't speak the language so I had to depend on on the pictures when I ordered. My dish was unbelievably delicious! So flavorful and presented nicely. My son's meal was just as amazing. We left full and happy!! read more

I stumbled into La Guadalupana after dropping off clothes at the Goodwill next door and I'm glad I did. The place has that OG mom and pop feel, rustic and real, exactly how I like my restaurants. It was a cold day so I ordered the menudo and it hit the spot. Rich red broth, big pieces of corn and meat, just hearty and comforting. You can tell this place has been part of the neighborhood forever and it's filled with locals who know what's up! Drop in here and grab some food read more

La Guadalupana - Menudo - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I can't believe what an incredible experience this place is the price is so reasonable. The food is so authentic and you no matter how much you eat is how full you are always have room for one more quesadilla Asada, my friend had the taco. It was excellent, but he had to back it up with the enchilada and tons of Mole sauce. You will see the garnish of beans and rice. It was very appropriate, but the entrée is mouthwatering, come by the business and show your love and they will gladly reward your taste buds read more

We love to find local places to support when we visit different cities. This place we found on Yelp and needless to say, it did NOT disappoint!!! As you can see from the pictures, the portions are great!! We had three different meals and each was delicious! I had the wet burrito and crushed it. So full of flavor with the carne asada, rice, and beans. The service was amazing as well!! They answered every question we had. They got us everything we needed and were quick. We didn't have to wait very long for our food at all. It was quiet and ducked off in a shopping center. I thoroughly enjoyed every bite of my meal and would go back in a heartbeat to try another dish on their menu!! read more

There is parking and down street parking so parking wouldn't be a problem. I normally just walked here from work it's walk but good exercise after that big plate of food. Overall, would definitely Come back whenever I'm craving for it! read more

I don't come down in this area often but had to take care of some business at the Mexican Consulate, I did a quick Yelp search for tacos and this place was nearby and a 4 Star average so decided to come check them out. Corona times so they did have some seating outdoors or you can take your food ToGo, I ordered some tacos, paid and had a seat outside where food was brought out to me. Tacos https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/la-guadalupana-los-angeles-3?select=D2MJT8rqCFRNVS6bf9r-AQ First off did someone have a sale on Cilantro! Carne Asada https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/la-guadalupana-los-angeles-3?select=O3ZNwV_vrxZ3jm2zrovE9A Had a couple large pieces of gristle, you can see one in the photo on left, and lacking flavor, the house made corn tortillas were very thick and undercooked. so, I don't have to keep repeating myself ALL the hand made corn tortillas were undercooked! 2-Stars Al Pastor https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/la-guadalupana-los-angeles-3?select=eaClgljAiu7i45sbW3h53g Pretty dry and lacking flavor. 2-Stars Carnitas https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/la-guadalupana-los-angeles-3?select=gLSfQyg5BFgnhHWW_eje1Q Now this was just some waste of piggy, had an odd taste. 1-Star Lengua https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/la-guadalupana-los-angeles-3?select=9LutxERU-4IZCEI_kE_lFw This was the ONLY taco on the plate worth eating, the lengua was lean with very good flavor, too bad the tortilla was not up to par. 4-Stars Salsa - https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/la-guadalupana-los-angeles-3?select=_uzRB0adbgm5wQ66QCTmIQ Both were good. read more

Food and portions very good. Fair prices! Good service even though I got my order to go,

Great local mom and pop shop to support. Reasonably priced for amount of food with each meal. My first time stopping by I ordered Carne Asada meal for $8 bucks it was delicious and favorable. I noticed the meat must have been marinated because it was seasoned well and very juicy. The tacos were a nice size they definitely pack in the meat and give you extra tortillas. Staff friendly and good offering suggestions. They don't have taco Tuesday but it's worth it to try there tacos any day of the week. Plenty of onsite parking Covid-19 restrictions enforced Social distant and hand sanitizer offered I will be back hope you also get to try Enjoy! read more

La Guadalupana - Carne Asada meal - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

WOW, don't let their rustic look fool you. 3 dollar tacos are well worth it. Hand made tortillas, plenty of meat, and the tortillas are not "street taco" size . The gentleman cashier was hospitable and their salsas are very flavorful. Also their aguas frescas are great read more

Was in the neighborhood looking for some good food. This place has the highest ratings and after my experience.... I can see why. We placed our order and it appeared that it was going to take 35 minutes. We arrived in the parking lot and called the store at 18 minutes. I lady that answered clearly having a great time here as she was laughing and told us our order was ready. My husband went inside and said that everyone was smiling and having a good time. Great atmosphere and energy. He order the Chicken Mole and I had the tacos. My husband is very particular about mole so I was surprised when he said it was VERY good. We will definitely be back. read more

Today (09/16/2023), I ordered a bowl of Menudo "to go" and paid about $15.33 including tax. On previous occasions, this restaurant has given me generous portions when I have ordered that item. However, this time was disappointing indeed! I could immediately tell from the size of the styrofoam container in the "to go" bag that it was slightly more than a "small" bowl of soup. I would say they gave me perhaps what might be described as a "medium" portion serving size at best. I am really sorry that I did not complain right away before leaving the restaurant ... I should have told them right then and there that the serving size was rather insulting, and given them an opportunity to make it right by providing a larger portion size or give me a full refund. It has been a long time since I felt cheated, but that is how this experience today made me feel. read more

It was empty when we walked in on a Monday night. I imagine it's more in-demand during lunchtime. It's located in a strip mall so they have a private parking lot but it's pretty small. Portions are pretty big. I ordered the enchiladas de mole ($9) and their corn truffle ($8), but could only finish the enchiladas. I was kind of confused by the chopped lettuce sitting on top of the four enchiladas. The food is good but there's nothing that really screams "crave me!" That being said, I haven't tried the corn truffle plate, so I might have to update my review for that one if it turns out to be a game-changer. read more

The outside may look a bit sketchy but be brave. The staff is mellow. The food is really good. Try a carnitas huarache with a small side of rice and beans. The thick handmade tortilla was excellent. Add yourself some cucumber, radish and onions from the salsa bar. You will be one happy hombre or muchacha after your meal. I'll be back. Gracias La Guadalupana. read more

Great service and great chorizo burritos. A great authentic mexican restaurant. If you're in Westlake in need of good bfast, come here.

Beats hospital food any damn day of the week. I vaguely remember really liking these tacos. Tiny place, friendly employees and tasty ass tacos. Walking distance from Good Sammaritan hospital. My buddy got some plain tacos and she seemed to like em all just fine. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/la-guadalupana-los-angeles-3?select=4k3UkljrBGdWRCLo8161-g#_Q79Unfyhxhqf5Ao7kbTxw I got mine dressed up with some onions and cilantro and threw on the hot sauce after I snapped the pic. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/la-guadalupana-los-angeles-3?select=_Q79Unfyhxhqf5Ao7kbTxw#4RjZJXi49FCJ7b6IulH0Yw Really good tongue chopped up into big tender cubes, carnitas was well cooked and a lil crispy, the al pastor had a good flavor and it was all super cheap. I hate hospitals and hope anyone reading this never has to go to one unwillingly..... but if you're at Good Sammaritan....I'll come by and visit you with a big bag full of tacos...cuz I'm a caring bastard like that. read more

La Guadalupana - tacos (chicken, carnitas and al pastor) - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Surprisingly really good Mexican food at this hole in the wall!! Came here as I was craving quesadillas and we ordered the al pastor & carne asada tacos as well as the hand made tortilla quesadilla with carne asada. Also got a side of horchata, and total was around $15. Food came out within minutes, and we were extremely impressed how good everything was! The al pastor taco was DELICIOUS, and the carne asada taco was also really good. The tortilla of the quesadilla has a lot thicker consistency than regular tortillas, and I really enjoyed it as the quesadilla was nice and thick. It also comes with a side of rice and beans, and the rice was very flavorful. I also added a side of sour cream and avocado, which was a nice complement. The horchata was too sweet and milky, I wouldn't order it again. This spot is definitely a great find for quick Mexican food. I'm glad I stopped by here, and I will be returning again! read more

Wow, am I glad I stopped by this little gem. I'm driving to work on 6th street toward downtown thinking "mexican food mexican food mexican food, damn, I shoulda stopped at that last taco truck" and then I see this strip mall with a mexican restaurant that's open. The sign was for "Metro Deli #2" which was on the corner, but after parking, a sign on the window of Guadalupana catches my eye "tortillas hecha de mano" - hand made tortillas! I thought of Guisados that I've had bookmarked for weeks and start salivating. (Metro Deli #2 also has that "hand made" sign and I went in there once and had the most ridiculuosly bad experience ever. I would review, but it would be a major rant so I won't... but trust me, do not go there, go here instead right next door.) This strip mall looks like its owned by mexicans, run by mexicans for mexican customers. when i walk into guadalupana, the lady behind the counter looks at me as if i'm lost. she doen't speak the slightest bit of english so i had to bust out my rusty-ass espanol. I ordered "un burrito con chorizo con huevos, uno taco de asada y un taco de carnitas por favor" and she smiles and says "bueno" - super sweet lady with a ton of smiles. Then she grabs a handful of some type of dough and starts tossing it back and forth in her hands and pounding it on the prep table that I can't see below the counter. Holy shit, these are hand made tortillas MADE TO ORDER! YES!!!! As I patiently wait I browse at the menu and see "handmade corn quesadillas" and the choices are pumpkin flower, chipotle chicken, mushroom, corn truffle and mixed. Wow. Now there's something new. I definietely have to come back and try those! I'm sure Guisados will be good when I try it, but the tacos here were un-freaking-beleivable. So so good. Don't let the 'hood sketch you out, it's all good. Just come try these tacos and corn quesadillas. read more

It was Ok. The tacos were gorgeous and inexpensive but the flavor was flat. Meat tasted like it had been cooked a lot earlier in the day and was stale. Corn tortillas were good but fell apart right away. Adding more salsa made the flavor better but that's not optimal. Probably wouldn't come back at 5pm again. read more

La Guadalupana - Two carne asadas and one tripa $6 - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I give this joint a 3.5 because of how well the food is made, flavors are great and meat was super tender. Don't skip the menudo--orders come w/ handmade tortillas and all the fixings! The shrimp is spicy and cooked to perfection. You're going to have to overlook what the inside looks like(hence -1.5 stars) but it's worth it ! read more

I'm happy to order from there especially during this COVID-19 madness. Support your local hole in the wall businesses! read more

I always order the same thing here carne asada tacos. I occasionally order a side of rice and the only reason it isn't 5 stars is that the tacos have a lot of grease but other than that it's good. Someone smelled my food and said it smelled good so I thought oh whoah I'll include that in my review because the food was wrapped in foil in a bag and no one has complimented other food I took to the same spot to eat. I like this location because it's close to me and that has made me a regular here. The price is okay but I have yet to try another like cabeza or al pastor so I'll most likely update this review then. read more

Eating here is a good place but everytime I go they charge me a different price. I went on two different days and the prices were not the same. It's almost like they are charging different groups of people different prices. I would dislike for this to be true... I really like this place. read more

Everytime I eat here I leave 100% satisfied. I used to only get the mole plate, but their tacos, carne asada and caldos are all so damn delicious too. Recently I had their caldo de pollo and it's the closest thing I've tasted to home (im from a Mexicali border town called El Centro). Try this place out for yourself!! read more

I've had some great tortas de asada From this place will definitely be returning to try other foods

So, I kinda got duped into coming here because of the fresh, hand made tortillas. I mean, who doesn't LOVE homemade tortillas?? Yes, they are fresh and, yes, they are hand made. But, no, they're not that great. The corn tortillas on the tacos got a little too soggy too quickly. The flour tortilla on the quesadilla was okay, but you really couldn't tell that it was hand made. The meat was so-so... nothing to make me stop again. The salsa bar was, again, so-so... It wasn't horrible. It wasn't great. Eh. read more

I am ADDICTED to the carne asada tacos here!!!! I am in LA once a week and I look forward to getting the tacos here EVERY time!! They are DELICIOUS & a steal...4 for $5. I'm a greedy girl. While 4 tacos fill me up, I find myself jonzing for just one more so I get 5. Why not??? It's just $1.25 more!! The meat is nicely grilled & flavorful on it's own...but in the perfectly fried tortillas...with a generous helping of diced onion, cilantro, & squeezed lime...topped with the orange/red SPICY chipotle salsa, guacamole salsa, & tomatillo salsa...(my mouth is watering as I write this...)...it is to DIE for!!!! All my friends cannot resist these tacos!!!!!! The orange/red salsa is a MUST HAVE. There was an occasion where my friend forgot the orange salsa but got the others because IT IS a pain to ladle the salsas into the tiny little containers. The tacos were still good that day, it wasn't the same. The orange/red salsa has the MOST heat!! On occasion, I get the machaca burritos, which are good but they have more rice than I care for. I must admit that the other items are just mediocre. My friends have gotten the caldo de res, sopes & burritos and have said that they're just "blah". One of them repeatedly orders the huraches over the tacos. I have never had it, so I can't vouch for it. Why only 4 stars??? The diced onions & cilantro in the salsa bar don't always look super fresh, maybe a day or two old. While it doesn't affect the flavor of the tacos. Sometimes, it's not that appealing to look at. read more

La Guadalupana - BEST tacos EVER!!! Load up on the onions, cilantro, & limes!!! The orange salsa is the BOMB!!! - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I wanted to like this food. The reviews were all stellar and I trust the star rating when it comes from many many people. I hate to say but I was very disappointed. I don't like the way they prepare their meat. I've been here twice now and this is my first review of this place. Second time didn't change how I felt after the first time. I've tried their carnitas, chorizo (super burnt), asada and al pastor. There wasn't a single item that I liked :( The people are friendly and it's a small hole in the wall restaurant. The salsas are great! read more

Ordering from here was like going to a Prince concert. We ordered for delivery and the delivery guy shows up and calls to say he is outside. He spoke very little English but he clearly understood that we expected him to come to the door. He was trying to tell me there was no parking. So I'm pissed off already, and as I expected there were 4 open parking spots on the street. At a Prince show he always comes out really late getting the crowd on Edge. So the lazy delivery guy did not have me in a good mood. So we sit down to eat and I bite into the best burrito I've ever had. It was pastor and just so flavorful. My girl got carne asada and it was just as great. We got two quesadillas too and they were also amazing just like when Prince hits the stage. You forget about the long wait because it is just that good. That is why they get 5 stars. I'm just going to pick it up next time. read more

This is the definition of hole in the wall, but I'd like to think of it as a small treasure offering great food. Traditional mexican food plates, breakfast, tacos, burritos, chilles rellenos, tortas, chilaquiles, pretty much if you can think it they most likely have it. I usually grub on the tripas tacos or taquito plate that comes with rice and beans and for breakfast I recommend chilaquiles. They do deliver ($15 minimum not sure on mile radius) and it does get busy around lunch time and dinner and seating is limited with only 5 tables biggest one only seats 4 the rest seat 2. Service is very nice and they accept credit cards. Check them out great spot. read more

I love this place! And I love how it's so near my apartment. I've been coming here on a regular for more than a year. I was really supposed to check out the spot next door and am so glad I walked into here by accident. I've had a lot of tacos in LA, but I've got to say they serve the best damn tacos around and they're only $1.25 each! Their meats are just full of flavor. My faves are tripas, al pastor and carnitas. I've tried other things on their menu like the quesadillas, taquitos, chilaquiles, sopes and enchiladas and everything is really good! I don't speak Spanish, but ordering isn't so bad because everyone that works there is so friendly. read more

This place is legit. I knew the minute I walked up and saw the guy grilling in the parking lot. I ordered 5 tacos El Pastor and they were delicious. They have all fresh condiments radishes cilantro limes real Chipotle. Their tomatio sauce is off the chain. You can always tell a real taqueria when you walk in and everyone is speaking Spanish. It is in a Hispanic part of town but don't be scared everyone was helpful and friendly. The place ain't much for appearances but they are here to sell great REAL mexican food so they impress their customers with their food not looks. you want great tacos and mexican food, then head on down. read more
