Came in here on a rainy day, looking for a big bowl of albondigas soup .. after looking at trusty YELP and checking out the other reviews I decided why not let's see what this place has to offer. This place is nestled into a small strip mall with a couple other restaurants located in it kind of tucked away not hard to find, but you would miss it pretty easy, it was either the owner and his mom or his wife and they both seem nice. They took the order they made the order and they brought out the order so it looks like a hard-working family. Now onto the food !! My soup was good and I could tell that it was fresh because it took about 20 minutes to make and nobody else was in the restaurant. I appreciate the attention to detail, but for me the broth was just lacking. Something was definitely missing in the flavor department. My 10 year old son ordered the Carne Asada quesadilla and I had a small piece of that, which was actually pretty good as the tortilla was nice and fluffy and very soft. The meat in the quesadilla was also tender and not tough which also helped out Not saying I wouldn't come back to this place and give it another try ,but the soup for me was definitely lacking what I was looking for and I've had better albondigas soup at other places. read more

Damn good! My family and I wanted Thai bbq takeout for the 4th of July. We were going to have that for later. So in the meantime we needed a Scooby snack :p The Mexican spot next to Thai bbq was closed for the holiday. So I started calling around because my mom needed her carne asada tacos! Called around and I remember I had Los consomes on my list and they were open YAY. I ordered two carne asada street tacos, a queso birria ,a queso asada taco and chips and salsa. I was raised in Cerritos so I know Artesia very well and made my way over from Thai bbq. Walked in, nice clean little mom and pop. Seems like the guy was the chef and cashier. I didn't realize there was a little bell to let them know you're there so I stood around for a good minute til I pressed it lol. For safety, I'd say they should have something that makes a noise when you first walk in. Anyhow, he came out, rung me up and food was packed and ready. Got home and tore into the bag. The chips definitely tasted made to order. Extremely fresh! The salsa was sooooo good. He asked if I wanted the hot sauce and of course I did. Even my mom indulged and she usually can't do spicy. It was a perfect amount of spice. She said her tacos were the softest, not soggy tacos she ever had. The meat was perfect and plentiful. The queso tacos were simple and delicious. No dried out tortillas here! The Birria was nice and soft. Their meat was perfectly cooked. Not tough or a crazy chew to it. My mom said the chips were addicting. We were full just off our tacos and some chips. I needed a nap LOL. They have a nice straightforward menu. Not a million things, just enough options to keep you interested for multiple visits. Great service from a hardworking family I bet. I can't wait to go back and try their soups, even with this summer heat I wish them much success:) read more

Los Consomes - Birria queso taco and Carne asada queso taco - Tacos Near Me - Artesia, California

Who knew this Mexican spot in the middle of a town filled with Asian and Indian food would be this amazing! Their tacos were really good quality and their quesotacos were filled! What I really enjoyed was their Birria Ramen. It has goat AND beef. Yum. The staff there was incredibly sweet and friendly as well. Service was just top notch. Our cousin was from out of the country and hasn't had this kind of Mexican food yet (she tried Taco Bell, which we know doesn't constitute as "Mexican" food). They explained to her the menu and what to expect, and was very patient. I give it to them for their service alone because they were so sweet. Prices were decent too. Not bad for the quality food you get. Very much worth it and I definitely see myself coming back for more and recommending it to other people! read more

4.5 stars. I had driven by Los Consomes multiple times on the way to 99 Ranch, and decided to finally try it out since I love soups. The interior was much smaller than I anticipated, with just a few tables. Order and pay at the counter, but your food will be brought out to you if you dine in. The interior decor was simple, but with a clever pun on the wall. Obviously, they have lots of soups on the menu, but some other non-soup dishes too. We ordered the albóndigas (meatball) soup and menudo, plus a chipotle pork taco and a slice of chocoflan. We were also given a complimentary potato flauta to try (as a sample for an upcoming new menu item). The taco was flavorful but pricey. The soups were definitely the highlight of the meal, piping hot and tasty, plus served in ceramic bowls just like in Mexico. The homemade salsa and chocoflan were also excellent. Prices were fair overall. Some of the plates/bowls were slightly chipped, which is bad luck in Chinese culture, if I am being superstitious. Service was very friendly and the lady was bilingual. There was an Asian duo dining before us (makes sense given the area) who said "gracias" with a cute accent on the way out. I really enjoyed the food and would love to come back to try more soups! Wishing this small business the best of luck as a Mexican restaurant in a highly Asian neighborhood (good thing Asians also love soup)! read more

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this restaurant! They have some of the best Mexican food I've had in a very long time. So far, we have tried: Birria Ramen - This fusion dish really is the best of both worlds. The meat was tender, the broth full of bold flavors & noodles cooked perfectly. 10 Stars!! Quesatacos - Both the Al Pastor & Carne Asada are delicious between the layer of cheese and corn tortilla. Be sure to ask for a cup of broth for dipping ;) 10 More Stars!! Super Fries - The best version of loaded fries you will ever have, we picked Al Pastor for the meat & the fries were cooked just right crisp on the outside and tender on the inside... 10 Stars!! How can everything be 10 Stars you ask? I don't know but it is :) Try and save room for dessert because they have Choco Flan! If you don't know this treat it's chocolate cake with a layer of flan on top... And I love!!!!!!!!!! There is also a selection of soda including my favorite Jarritos pineapple :) Los Consomes is located in a shopping center so there is plenty of safe well-lit parking. The restaurant has ample seating and is spotless. read more

If you're in the area, you need to stop by this place. One of the best quesatacos out there. It was so flavorful. It was made hot & fresh. I enjoyed it so much. I wasn't that hungry, so I only got one to try. If I was hungry, I prob could eat a few. Will definitely get it again but without onions when in the area. I am not sure what the price range is for tacos nowadays. To me, it was kinda expensive for one. I think almost $5 for one. $3.99 for one and then tax...it was really good tho. Service was wonderful. read more

Yesterday was cold and it was the perfect weather for pozole. The place we were going to go was closed. This provided the opportune time to try this place which has been on my list! It's a small place in a shopping plaza in Artesia. The plaza has ample parking. The staff were so welcoming!! We ordered 2 pozoles and 2 cocas de botella to drink. They provided chips and salsa. The salsa is made with chile de arbol and their own special touches. They said this batch was not as spicy as it usually is and they could bring us spicier. Since I was dining with someone who does not really like super spicy, we continued with the salsa provided. It had just the right heat and a unique delicious flavor which paired nicely with the chips. The pozole hit rhe spot! If you're looking for an authentic spot that serves a variety of caldos (soups), tacos and other Mexican dishes check them out! Price was a bit higher but I feel like everything has gone up! However, the amount of food and quality and service was well worth it! We will be back soon!! Thank you to the owners and staff that took care of us last night!! read more

I found this little spot driving in the area and craving tacos. I was definitely not disappointed.

I happened to stumble across Los Consumes when I was in the plaza for other reasons. Just opened 6 months, I was excited to see birria on the menu! My son picked a carne asada burrito with everything ($9.99) and I got the birria plate ($12.99); both to go. The burrito is the size of a swaddled baby and try as he could, my son finished 2/3 before he tapped out. I appreciated the grilled tortilla which helped the structure of the burrito and the sheer volume it held; lol. Very tasty and the rice and beans were delicious. The birria was a miss for me and I don't think I'll get it again but we'll definitely be back for tacos, caldos, and burritos. I spied churros on the menu too! Much luck to your future success, Los Consomes! I hope you do well and are around for the long haul. read more

Sometimes you just have to ask yourself, what the heck ? First of all I go in around 1:00. I'm the only one person there. I stand at the counter for over 5 min. Nobody comes out to take my order. I eventually have to ring the bell, which I hate doing. Anyway a lady finally comes out to take my order. I order pozole which she overcharged me for. Menu says 13.99. She charged me 14.99. The menu is digital so they could change it. I decided to get it to go because the place is just depressing. After tax I paid almost 17.00. Ridiculous...... No tortillas, no salsa, just chips. The pozole had to be the most tasteless pozole I have ever had. Canned pozole has more flavor. I had to doctor it so much to even be edible. Anyone saying this is good pozole have no clue or are just straight lying. I will not be back. read more

I want to recommend this place is definitely good. I tried albondigas and quesatacos shrimp they are so good.

My stomach & my hunger eloped. They came here to consome the marriage. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=Cbu5EoWvQSKeuSVH6_wStQ&userid=xsT4KZTu_KnOVavtuXn4RA Occupying the former home of an Indian restaurant, Los Consomes recently opened in Artesia, and I was looking forward to trying out their food. Birria quesataco- https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=otafEUZQabA12u28QngFQw&userid=xsT4KZTu_KnOVavtuXn4RA Stretchy, ooey gooey cheese on the inside, crunchy, burnt cheese on the outside, the birria quesataco was packed with flavor. Ample amounts of tender meat, the house hot sauce really kicked it up a notch. Los consomes- https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=6LHUAaU5npL26xWjcb_y4Q&userid=xsT4KZTu_KnOVavtuXn4RA Perusing the consome options, I thought best to order the namesake "Los Consomes". Seasoned, savory & really good, the "Los Consomes" had liberal amounts of meat, accompanied with tortillas. Rice & beans are included, upon request, at no extra charge. I found my rich bowl of sumptuous food pleasing & highly enjoyable. I do think I'd order it without rice, next time, as the rice sucked up the delectable broth. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=KWkHGLedkB5is-O33SRrDg&userid=xsT4KZTu_KnOVavtuXn4RA Service was good. I didn't wait long for my order to be ready. The small dining room has booths & tables for customers. Los Consomes is located in the shopping plaza directly behind 99 Ranch Market. Sabroso! The food at Los Consomes was delightful, and has me wanting more. I very much enjoyed the birria quesataco & bowl of "Los Consomes". A filling, hearty & flavorful lunch was what I experienced during my first visit. I'm ready to come back, and whether it's their caldo de res, pozole, or another go with the "Los Consomes", I know I'll leave well fed & happy. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=4-JLFA_CX9JcRA27dAdlrg&userid=xsT4KZTu_KnOVavtuXn4RA read more

I ordered through Yelp and my food was ready in a timely manner. I ordered a burrito and nachos. I wish I would've sat in the restaurant to eat my meal because the food is so delicious. I wish more people would eat there. The place is empty when I arrived there was a young lady there. I don't know if she's the daughter of the chef, but she was on the telephone and didn't say hi. I had a Carna Sada burrito and El Pastore nachos, I think. I recommend this place read more

I ordered the quesanirria tacos which were tasty but the cheese and tortilla in it wasn't crispy like the photos I've seen on other Yelp reviews. But it tasted good at least. I also ordered the fried potato tacos. Was basically a hard taco shell with some mashed potatoes in it. Maybe the deep fried part was only the taco shell? I ordered chips and salsa which there were none but that's partly my fault for not double checking the order but one would assume the order would be complete. Golden rule before picking up food always double check all items are included. Also ordered the al pastor burrito. Was ok. Meat was well seasoned and the flavors were good. Wish there was onions or cilantro or anything else fresh. Per my picture I ordered a side consumme to dip the quesabirria tacos and the lid melted and spilled all over the bag. I was able to salvage it but had to strain out the melted plastic bits of the lid. Clearly not a good delivery vessel for hot liquid. Overall items were missing and expectations were not met with the lack of crispy cheese and tortilla on the tacos and the along with the consumme botch I'll give them 3 stars since the food had good flavor. read more

A pleasant find in the area. Service was pretty good but a little slow, so we spent our time waiting while watching music videos that they had on their TV. Got three quesatacos (they give you a choice of meat, I got asada, birria, and al pastor) and an order of Pozole. The tacos were pretty good, the portion of meat was a tiny bit lacking but it holds up to some of the better taco trucks in L.A. taste wise. The pozole came out piping hot and with a side of nachos, cabbage, onions, and cilantro. The flavor was a little lighter than your typical pozole, but the soup tasted clean and healthy. I'd recommend both of the items, but keep in mind you'll have to pay extra for consommé to dip your tacos in. read more

Every time I go in the mornings for Caldo de albondigas they never have the salsas because the owner isn't there. He has some lady working there that charged me for a caldo de albondigas and told me they don't even have it, then she talked to me very aggressive and told me it was my fault. I think if they had a better worker that knew what was present or had salsas ready this place would be ok. She claims to not know what's in stock even though she's been there for 2 hours .How are you suppose to be award winning caldo de albondigas if you guys don't even have it available in the mornings or fresh if that. Getting charged and told it was my fault is very insulting and I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. read more

Los Consomes specializes in "Broth type" dishes, Caldo de Res, Albondigas, Pozole, Menudo, but since it's been nearly one thousand degrees, I wasn't really looking for a soup type dish.

Place was in the middle of little Indian which was weird but convenient since I live down the street and decor is basic which I could care less about cuz it's all about the food right...... Ordered the birria soup "Caldo de birria" and cheese tacos "Quesatacos". Soup meat was a bit dry and broth needed salt. The tacos had a ton of cheese and not so much meat. I think the worst part was the salsa... zero kick from all 3. The green, habanero, and red were all mild but still flavorful. Staff was really nice so if you care about that, I guess that's another star. If you're a local and don't wanna drive outside of Cerritos, need some decent authentic food and don't mind mild salsa... this is all you. $35 bucks for some soup and three tacos... imma pass and unfortunately won't be returning. read more
