    #20 Carne Asada, rice & beans, chips & guacamole and flour tortillas. I didn't want to put the fork down. This place has authentic Mexican food it's so good. The waitress was very nice too. This place should be packed! I parked in the old Big Lots and walked across the street. Chow down!

    Ordered the nachos with carne' asada and the bean and cheese burrito. The bean n cheese burrito was tiny. 9$ for a burrito that's the size of a fork. Sad. Nachos were average.

    Complimentary chips and salsa

    Overall a reliably good Mexican restaurant in the South Bay Beach Cities. I'd come again and recommend this place. Free Chips and Salsa when you dine in too!

    La Paz No 2 is a small, almost out of sight, restaurant providing an alternative home style Mexican choice for folks in the area. The menu is pretty much standard stuff you'd expect. The interior has clean tables, but isn't inviting whatsoever. I can't actually bring myself to eating there, so the past few times I got my food to go.

    Potato tacos

    I've been coming to this place for 30 years. The only reason I don't want to write a review is so that others don't catch on to how amazing it is and it gets overcrowded. Best salsa I've ever had. The potato tacos are amazing and great prices

    10/10 will be going back! We couldn't believe how good yet fast our food was. And 3 chicken tacos for $7.99 is an insanely good deal. Plus the nice lady at the front gave us extra salsa, our food came with chips which we weren't expecting, and the tacos were big and scruffier with chicken!! So impressed will definitely be going back soon. Store was so cute and homey.

But from the start we were greeted with a warm welcome and sat at our table very promptly. Sully was our waiter and we knew right away that our service was going to be excellent right after him introducing himself. We had 6 of us in the group and we ordered quite a bit of food and drinks and he was on top of everything making sure we were well taken care of. I had the chicken and steak fajitas and added shrimp, which I highly recommend, my son had two chicken tacos which he loved which I was happy because he's pretty picky. And everything else we had like the braised short rib taquitos the freshly made tortillas with a delicious honey butter to a Chili Rellano that was to die for! I don't think this place makes a single dish that doesn't taste good!

We ordered the filet fajitas, mole blanco chicken enchiladas (must try!!), and fried ice cream for dessert everything was absolutely delicious. One thing we really appreciated was that Peter kindly split the enchiladas onto two plates for us without us even having to ask! It was such a thoughtful touch and made the meal feel even more special. The food, service, and atmosphere were all top notch. We'll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend asking for Peter if you visit!

Warm air scented with roasted chiles and grilled carne asada greets you like an old friend who knows exactly what you came for. The room hums softly--families, laughter, plates arriving with quiet authority. No pretension. No theatrics. Just the confident rhythm of a kitchen that understands its purpose. The salsa arrives first. Bright. Alive. The sort of salsa that makes you pause mid-conversation and look down at the bowl with respect. Then the meal. Enchiladas wrapped in velvet-soft tortillas. Rice with the quiet depth of slow simmering. Beans rich enough to remind you that comfort can be served on a plate. And the margarita--cold, unapologetic, perfectly balanced--arrives like punctuation at the end of a long day. You sit back. The noise of the world recedes. This is not simply dinner. It is the rare satisfaction of a place that does exactly what it promises--and does it well. Five stars.

The staff was so kind and we got complimentary chips and salsa. I ordered the Chicken Soup here. Chicken Soup - Obviously, you're not really supposed to get the chicken soup here, but I am on a diet so I needed to get a healthier option. The soup itself was flavorful and light veggies and chicken. It came with rice and onions (you can order tortillas on the side). The chicken in the soup was pretty tough and difficult to chew, however they gave a LOT. You definitely get a bang for your buck if you're trying to eat high protein. Overall, this place was just meh for me. My husband seemed to think the food here is mediocre as well. I don't think I would choose to come back here.

Both locals and tourists seem to love this place. They are famous for their Birria offered in tacos, burritos and combo plates. We ordered breakfast burritos. The tortillas are made in house and are so very yummy. The All American breakfast burrito was a decent size burrito filled with bacon, sausage, eggs, cheese, and hashbrowns served with red and green salsa, which are both very fresh and tasty. For $2 order the guacamole sauce...so good! Chips are also fresh and made in house. If you are craving authentic Southern California tacos or burritos, be sure to stop by Tacos El Goloso, Hermosa Beach. I know there are other SoCal locations as well.

    Walked past this place on my way to the beach and I just had to come back and try it!…read more Ordered 4 tacos dorados de birria (really they're quesabirrias). They were absolutely delicious. The tacos are nice and crispy and have a generous amount of cheese and meat. I'm sure they're good on their own, but I feel you can't enjoy birria tacos without lime, salsa, and a good dunking into the consome. The tacos came with an acidic green salsa and a red spicy salsa, both taste great. They also give you two slices of lemon, which is honestly enough for the tacos. I think the only way they could improve this plate is by adding a bit of extra cilantro and onion or radish on the side. Service was good. I was attended to quickly at the counter and had my tacos in like 5 mins. Given, I came while it was slow (12pm, weekday). The restaurant is small, but there's seating indoors and outdoors. I grabbed my food to-go and honestly I'd do it again to enjoy it on the beach. Definitely would come back!

Everything tasted incredibly fresh and perfectly seasoned. We ordered the carne asada and carnitas, and both were amazing. The meat was tender, flavorful, and not fatty at all just perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. My daughter had the bean and cheese burrito with rice and beans and loved it too. They bring out three different salsas with the chips, and each one had its own unique flavor. You can tell the chips are house-made because they're fresh, crisp, and just really good. Some Mexican restaurants can make things overly salty, but everything here tasted balanced and fresh. I also had a Paloma and it was made perfectly. Before we left we decided to try the churros and I'm so glad we did. They were filled with this amazing cream and came with a caramel sauce for dipping. I'm not usually a big dessert person, but these were seriously incredible. Great location, great service, amazing food, and everything tasted fresh and well made. We will definitely be back!

    I don't usually write reviews like this because I'd consider myself someone with a lot of patience…read more But my partner and I came to Maderos tonight after looking around Yelp and seeing how many great reviews it had. When we arrived, we were pleasantly surprised by the ambiance and decided to sit outside, which felt perfect for a Sunday evening. We each ordered Orden De Tacos -- which is two tacos with rice and beans -- which seems simple enough. But after a while, we started noticing that people who arrived after us were ordering, getting their food, eating, paying, and leaving while we were still waiting. Again, all we had ordered was four tacos total, plus rice and beans. About 50 minutes after we placed our order, I finally got up to ask our waiter if he could check on our food because it had been such a long wait. If they were too busy (there were a lot of people, but not absurdly so), that's where communication could have gone a long way. Even just stopping by to acknowledge the delay or apologize for the wait would have made the experience feel very different. In the end, it took nearly an hour to get our four tacos from the time we ordered it, and the wait wasn't mentioned by staff at all. The food was okay in the end, but the experience definitely left us disappointed.
