La Que Buena Taqueria - Fish tacos (Taco Tuesday) - Mexican Near Me - Whittier, California

I ordered a beer plate. They gave me beef meat thinking I was there. It was beef nothing but fat they need to be more professional and more cleaning. When the server food yes there's no excuse for that for plate and $30. I got burned. I threw that plate of wing very disappointing. I wouldn't recommend this shit.! read more

The chef owner greeted us as soon as we entered which I really appreciated. When we walked in, three booths were taken so that looked promising. However, the first red flag though was the chips and salsa. The salsa came in 2 small containers and were half full. The flavor was great though! It also came with beans which were also really good. But my family, we go through at least 2 trays of chips and about 4 bowls of salsa before our entrees hit the table so we knew that this place would be scarce with the salsa. Not good. We asked for more salsa and a lot of it. The waitress, who was really kind, brought one container. So we got less! Later she brought two more and 2 tiny containers of red salsa. She said they ran out of green salsa. How?! The place wasn't even packed! Second red flag was the menu seemed limited and pasta was on the menu. We came for Mexican food, so we want to see those options and combinations. However, the owner also caters so those dishes may be options to boost catering opportunities. Third red flag, we ordered water, but bussing tables was more important than servicing. I ordered enchiladas, my daughter ordered the filete de pescado, and my husband ordered the birria plate. My enchiladas were delicious! One was shredded beef and the other was cheese. I typically do not like shredded beef anything but this was jammin. The rice and beans were also delicious. My husband enjoyed his dish, but my daughter did not like her fish. She said it was undercooked. In summary, the salsa and food flavors are great (minus the undercooked fish), however, the scarce portions and lack of quality service knocked off two stars. read more

This place sucks. We asked for a caldo de res instead got a caldo de hueso. It almost filled the whole cup. The food was not good. I do not recommend. read more

Actually just discovered this little gem not too long ago and am glad to have done so. It's super close to my house and they serve pozole and menudo during the week (which is the whole reason I found this spot in the first place)! All the food was delicious, you can tell the chef takes pride in his work. If you dine in, they serve you chips with salsa and DELICIOUS beans. read more

Open for breakfast. Amazing chips, fish tacos, and chilaquiles. wish they had a table outside since we have a dog but the food is delicious. read more

Horrible restaurant, after my husband finished his menudo he spit out a cooked fly at the bottom of his bowl. DO NOT TAKE YOUR CHANCE AT THIS DISGUSTING ESTABLISHMENT! Tienen moscas en la comida!! No comas aqui!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

Great hole in the wall mom and pop Mexican restaurant. Authentic Mexican food, feels like my mom's home cooking. There's no menu, specials are written on wax paper and taped to wall. We had fish tacos, made fresh to order handmade tortillas. 2 sopes also made fresh to order handmade sope! And 2 azteca tacos. Everything was flavored perfectly, it's no gourmet, it's mom's home cooking from the rancho. Will definitely be back, so happy I found this spot. read more

Best Bean and Cheese burrito! Beans are de la olla, perfect cheese amount, not too little, not too much. Flower tortilla was homemade. Red salsa was perfect. read more

Really great burritos, tacos and Pasole. Great restaurant quality food in a part of town that has limited quality food options. Can't wait to try the carne asada plate. Love the grilled onions in the asada tacos. read more

This use to be my go to place for taco Tuesday when I worked near by. We loved the fish tacos and the grilled onions on top of them. Went back this week and man was I surprised. Tacos have shrank significantly. Now they are bite size. Literally one bite and you can fit the whole taco in your mouth. Still great flavor but for the price, it's dent worth it. Won't be going back anymore. Another thing, it's extremely hot in there. Do not recommend eating in. read more

I ordered the tortitas de camaron and let me tell youuuu! It was DELICIOUS. Wow! Will definitely keep on coming back.

Bean and Cheese plus salsa verde and red/orange. Amazing. I'm definitely trying some of the other food listed on menu. The service what on point, I ordered through GrubHub and the time was good, patience is a virtue! Totally recommend this restaurant. read more

Be careful with this place. They over charge me those crooks. I'll never go back again. They probably thought I do not check my bank account , and I bet they steal all the time. I come here many times, and now I'll let all my peeps know that Baja tacos do not over charge their guests. read more

Very gross! The chicken soup still had feathers floating in the broth and tasted like smelly chicken. The Fidel a big ball of mush. The ceviche tasted like bad shrimp. I called twice to speak to someone as maybe it was just a bad day for them. I was hung up on twice. Yucky! read more

I had fish tacos they are so delicious! I am trying the Carne asada torta today! read more

I ordered through Door Dash a sope de asada and a sopa de albondigas. I was so disappointed. The asada meat was so dry and some of it was burnt giving the sope a nasty taste and the albondigas soup was so bland with barely any rice, meatballs nor vegetables. It was almost $15 way to pricey for what they serve, it honestly shouldn't cost more than $7 at the most. Mi Burrito mexican Grill has way better albondiga soup flavorful and a good portion for $15. Not sure that I want to try more food from this place. read more

Excellent place! I think it is underrated. The food and service is great! Clean place.

Reviewing for: The Fish Taco. The tortillas. The shrimp a la diabla. The NACHOS! We like a good fish taco but not many places have a real legit savory and yummy taco. This place has the right recipe. Hand made tortillas seal the deal even harded. Dannng The Nachos are totally worth the $$! I will go back bery very soon... I almost wanna go back again later :)) haa! No lie. The chips for the nachos were hand made oh my. Love it. The meat seasoned well and tender too. A big fresh chunk of avocado tops it all off. Must Try! read more

Lil hole in the wall was looking to save a buck on a Tuesday and this hit the spot my kids can eat tacos And I say go ahead eat ALL you want for .99 cents Asada plain , (after 5pm) while I stuff my face with .99 cent delicious Fish Tacos (all day) chef Ladis knocked it out of the park Ps.

Love Chef Ladis, Tacos Azteca.. Omg Bomb.com. You can tell he puts his personal touch on every Dish, like the chicaron plate, super yummy, nice and Crispy full of flavor.. his crapes always on point. We will drive 30 just to eat here. Must try, you will come back. Your welcome read more

I have been to this place twice...CASH ONLY...they do have an atm however. Overall the place is small but clean. The menu has plenty to choose from at a decent price. We had tacos, chile relleno, and nachos. All were good and average portions. We did not try the desserts however, they do look appetizing maybe next time. The 99cent fish tacos are a solid choice. The service was friendly. I would say that the only bad things about this place are the cash only option, and they do seem to take a bit longer than expected for an order. Nonetheless i would try them again. read more

Delicious chicharrón en salsa verde! Their rice and beans were really good too. Loved the tortillas hechas a mano. My first time ordering from here and I will definitely be back!!! read more

It's ok be warned they don't speak English at all and my friend who is from Mexico they struggled with a little....which was odd. Food was decent but for the price time and inconvenience there are so many other options locally read more

Every once and a while you get blessed with a hidden gem of a restaurant. Well today was one of those days for me Ladies and Gents. I literally pass by this place almost every day coming from work. Today I decided I would try a taco or two. The lady behind the register tells me "we are know for our Birria". Ok well Birria it is then. This plate comes out piping hot with nice hot consume. Fresh hand made tortillas with nice beans and rice all for eight bucks. My plate was perfect for the current weather conditions. This Chef knows what he is doing and takes great pride in a job well done and it shows in his plates. I can't wait to comeback and explore the menu some more. My overall sit down was a success 4 1/2 stars! read more

Best handcrafted tacos I have had in a while! Can taste the love definitely thank you

Stopped here with my mom to have some ceviche de camaron and carne asada tacos. Everything was delicious and the customer service was great.

So glad I came across this place ! It only had 3 reviews but I was already on my 1 hour lunch & figured I should just order my chilaquiles here since the other place close by was closed. It's one of my favorite things to eat. This is a quick hole-in-the-wall, but super authentic. I ordered with 2 over easy eggs & salsa verde. It was def home made!! The salsa was spicy & looked different than it normally does but I liked that since it showed they put their own twist on it. The chips weren't soggy with the sauce which was a good sign, eggs were a little over cooked but flavorful nonetheless. Service here was good. You just order up at the counter. Not a lot of people eat there, most I saw came in & got it to go. They accept credit cards. Also have their on parking lot which is a plus! ;) read more

Whenever my mom wants fresh, well made, flavorful Mexican food and I don't feel like cooking for her, I stop here on the way to her house because 1. La Que Buena Taqueria serves consistently delicious food 2. I can't cook this well, and 3. my whole family loves this place. I've been coming here for some years, through different ownership and different levels of quality in the food, but the comida coming out of the kitchen right now, in 2014, is some of the best Mexican food in this part of Whittier. If it matters, this place is the definition of hole in the wall and really not all that much to look at. If you decide to eat in, know you'll be getting amazing food in a simple eatery with just a few tables in the same room as the kitchen. Don't come here and cry to us about ambience is what I'm getting at. They have some items that stand out like the caldos [pollo, res, albondigas etc], SUPER burritos [exceptionally large, not on the menu, but if you ask they'll make it for you], tortas ahogadas and mexi-crepas! All their meats from grilled chicken, carne asada, al pastor etc are marinated and cooked beautifully. The tortillas are fresh, and the refried beans are to die for. I love love LOVE the Ensenada style fish tacos because they taste authentic to the ones down in Baja and you can get 3 of em with a small drink for $4.99 - such a bargain! :P The food takes a little while to prepare, but it's worth it, and so fresh. The service is always friendly, and the prices are just right. Make sure you specify that you need lime wedges in to go orders, they don't always place em in the bag! read more

Can across this location,because I really enjoy fish tacos,and also we where killing some time to see a movie out here. I was really surprised at the presentation of their dishes,great job for a little place to put out such Good food. See photo..... I'm not a big fan to see so many posters in the window of their food items,too many. I recommend the fish tacos and the Cocido de Rez. Location was very clean. A plus...... Great Job.... read more
