    Papa relleno
    Alan J.

    Lines are long because the food is good Burrito is big, asada was seasoned well and plentiful. Came with rice, beans, and salsa with a small amount of cheese. Thought it was a but dry....more salsa and or cheese would help that. Papa relleno was also very tasty. Got asada here too. Cheese here was also sparse. Compared to a couple of other places, they dont give a lot of tortillas with this. The prices are on par with some other places like this....on the higher end of that band.

    Wanted to update with a photo because WOW! BEST quesadilla I've ever had. They are very generous with their portions and everything is seasoned perfectly!

    Can confirm, tacos are bomb. Stop by the street corner most any evening and feast on the tasty tacos and burritos and whatever else tickles your fancy. Quick service even when there's a big ole line (always). We park across the street the street and pop the hatch to eat. You will not be disappointed.

    You ever have a place exceed expectations that you didn't know were there? You ever know you'd be back before taking the first bite? Then you've probably been to Los Perrones. Don't be discouraged by the long line that forms on a random Howe Avenue corner of where Jack in the Box once was. The wait is worth it times ten. Instagram and Facebook reels brought to my attention a local taco stand serving up loaded baked potatoes the size of an adolescent child's head, piled high with some of the finest Mexican meats. So finally one Saturday evening the fiancée and I made the short drive to the Arden area. As we approached we could see bright lights illuminating a stand with a large crowd around it. I immediately seen the al pastor meat spinning around like a record baby. The crowd was pretty chill and the line moved quick. Made friends with another couple in line as we talked about our teenage kids and love for different area eats. Went with two suadero tacos, one asada and one pastor taco. They include grilled pineapple with each taco. My personal favorite was the pastor but all were amazing and reminded me of some of the better taco stands in LA I've been to! My lady got two asada tacos topped with shredded cheese. We split the main star of the show and what brought us here. Choosing asada as the meat that would be filling this Idaho potato. The cheese and char of the steak and tenderness of the potato, almost to a mash, make each bite better than the last. A must try for any foodie in the area. Plenty of drinking options here, definitely try one of their agua frescas. Don't be turned off my sketchiness of the location as some of the best food spots always require some type of obstacle whether parking or a long drive. I'll be telling friends about this spot, specifically my friend Jonny, who lives close by and would love to get his small hands on some authentic food like Los Perrones.

    A friend had mentioned trying this place out all because they had a trompo so we decided to give it a shot. You know it's authentic when they offer buche and cabeza. We got a lengua burrito, a couple buche tacos, a couple al pastor tacos, an al pastor torta, and asada potato. All of the meats were on point and properly seasoned. Most places under salt but the lengua was amazing. The potato thing is HEAVY. it's definitely something to split. If they ask you if you want cheese, I would actually suggest skipping it as it makes it so much heavier and kind of takes away from the food. The salsa is proper also...not maximum tomatillo that just makes it sour. Pickled onions with habanero and jalapeños add a big hit of heat. Avocado salsa is kind of whatever. Maybe it's because everything is so well seasoned that it was underwhelming. Be prepared to get smoked the F out though. It's like being the pit master at a BBQ. I guess it depends on the wind, but wr got blasted and had to shower afterwards. Tacos were $3 a piece. Burrito is $13. Horchata is $7. Horchata is legit, made with actual rice, fully homemade. If you want real Mexican food, this is it.

    If you're like me, I always crave tacos late at night and I guarantee you Los Perrones hits the spot. They seem to specialize in pastor so that's what I got; 4 pastor tacos (and one Asada) and one pastor burrito. The pastor tacos were amazing and flavorful. The pastor had a nice smokiness and char from the flame and it was paired with a good amount of sweet yet perfectly tart pineapple. The asada was also good snd flavorful but their pastor just stands out more. The pastor burrito was SO good. My favorite out of everything we got. I will say though that I wish they included pineapple in the burrito. The rice and beans were really flavorful and I really appreciate that the cheese is cooked onto the tortilla (some places don't cook their cheese and that is not my preference). I came here on a Friday night at 7:30PM and it was quite busy, waited in line for about 15 minutes but food came out ready in about 8 minutes and the staff were friendly. I will be back for sure.

    Doesn't get any better than this! We got Al pastor tacos and an Al pastor torta. The meat was fresh and had a great flavor. Pricing was fair and they were very nice!

    Some of the best al pastor tacos I ever had. Came here on a Tuesday evening and there were about 8 or so customers. The line went by super quick. If you go on a Tuesday, they have their torta special which is 2 for $15. Great deal and the torta sandwiches are loaded. Also tried their baked potato which was loaded and came with tortillas which complimented it very well. Highly recommend this place. They are open daily from 5-12am.

    The goodies.

The consistency and quality keep bringing us back. We ordered the Shrimp al Mojo de Ajo, Carnitas Torta Ahogada, and the Cielo, Mar y Tierra Fajitas. Every dish was delicious, packed with flavor, and prepared perfectly. The shrimp was well-seasoned, the torta ahogada was satisfying and full of flavor, and the fajitas offered an excellent combination of meats and seafood. One of the highlights of this restaurant is their salsa selection. They have some of the best salsas around, and the fresh chips paired with the grilled onions are the cherry on top. Those little extras make the experience even better. Great food, consistent flavors, and quality service every time. It's worth the drive for us, and we'll definitely continue stopping by whenever we're in the area.

And I cannot express in words how excited I was for this location to open up a few years back. So if you're tired from shopping head on over to the restaurant for delicious tacos! Or drop in for taco Tuesday when their street tacos are a little over $2 each. I usually order the carnitas (drooling, has the right amount of soft and crispy bites), carne asada, shrimp and fish tacos! I have also tried the quesadilla which is packed with meat so there's bang for my buck. They put a good amount of meat on the tacos and toppings as well, so I get full pretty fast because of all the protein. Can't forget to mention the complimentary, fresh salsa bar with the grilled onions and jalapeños! The chips are mostly fresh, I have gone on some days where it appears and tastes like the chips were double fried and stale. But overall, on most days, the chips are warm and fresh. The staff are friendly, hard-working and they keep the place spotless and clean! It's a taqueria I have gone to several times in the past and will keep going back to for the refreshing margaritas, yummy tacos and excellent customer service. FYI- I believe they offer slightly lower prices if you pay with cash versus paying with card so it might be a helpful thing to know for people who carry cash.

The menu has changed and my favorite dish is no longer available, which was already a letdown. The bigger issue was when our server brought the handheld payment device to the table. We reviewed the bill and said it looked correct, but before handing it back, the highest tip option was selected and added automatically before my card was charged. I didn't notice until I got back to my car and saw the final amount. I was shocked and disappointed. The atmosphere is still great, the concept is unique, and the food is very good. However, it never felt like much of a locals' spot. Despite visiting many times over the years, the bartenders never seemed to recognize us or make us feel particularly welcome. The hosts often came across as young and disengaged. It's unfortunate because there is a lot to like here, but after losing my favorite menu item and having this payment experience, I don't think I'll be returning.
