Rihana A.

I ordered a rice bean and cheese burrito. It was flavorless. I needed all of the flavorless salsa. This was my second time trying it and I can't believe it has so many stars on Yelp. The price is reasonable.

Vegetarian (Egg and Avocado), Chorizo and Hash brown, and shredded beef - rice and beans

I have to start off by saying, Thank you! I placed an order for work and they were kind enough to have my order ready before they even open. That's great service! The food. Wow, they were a hit! Everyone LOVED all of them but the favorite was the chorizo and hash brown. This is a hidden gem! Thank you, again.

Floren A.

Amazing Service! Delicious food! And friendly staff who accommodated some requests my kids had.

Came here for an early lunch at work. Food was delicious crispy salty savory and all great spices. The flautas were crunchy fluffy and the meat was perfectly cooked I would love to come back here again tomorrow! If I could give this place 10 Stars I would

First time here. Ordered to go. It was clean inside. Staff is bilingual and super nice. It wasn't packed but there were a few customers dining in and taking out. Apple Pay is accepted. Menu is large and legible. We ordered shredded beef nachos with everything. It was delicious. I will try the wet burrito next time. The green salsa was good. The chunky salsa was good but it felt like it lacked salt. Again, the nachos were beyond delicious. They were not cheap and put all of the fixings. $19 for the nachos. Lots of meat, sour cream, cheese and guacamole. Food was nearly packed and packaged without spills. They were generous with their salsa which is always GREAT!!! I can't stand places that want to snub on the salsa. It was a lot of food. Couldn't finish but it tasted good as leftovers as well.

Ms T.

I give this place 3 stars I was really upset because they put to much on this place on TikTok let me tell you it smell good but it don't taste good !!! I order a wet burrito (asada) and the meat didn't have no damn season at all and they sour cream had water in it and also they guacamole smh and they sauce was a orange color and didn't have no taste to it I also order the taco special with 3 taco and rice and beans it was ok nothing to brag about they green sauce and red sauce, not popping no good taste, but they do have some damn Good French fries they put a lot of season on them and they was hot and good . I made it around closing time and they do clean up real good because when I walk in there it smell just like bleach and that was a good thing and the Service was good they was nice and friendly it was all man's there and they was very respectful but he told me the number one seller is the wet burritos and they Asada fries . I'm so sorry I forgot to take pictures of my food but if you ever in the city of Compton go check them out and see for yourself how you like it everybody had different taste Bud.

This place has a big selection of food from Mexican to American but mostly Mexican you can choose to eat in or order takeout what ever works for you they provide good service they usually only take about 5-10 min or you can call ahead and they'll have it ready for pick up and the price is really good under $10 per person that's really good now a days I recommend the shredded beef hard shell tacos there's bomb and they give you a huge portion so you'll definitely get your money worth

Shay A.

Used to go here a lot and Covid straight made me forget about them! I was driving past and saw them open and said WTF....so I stopped and got my usual...wet chicken burrito no beans! Price is higher but that's EVERYWHERE! Babyyyy this is one of the few places where the quality is still that same! It was delicious and I was mad I couldn't eat more! I ate maybe an inch off the burrito before I was full lol...they put a good amount of chicken in it! Will definitely be back to give them more of my money!

Florence M.

Okay it's safe to say I have an obsession with wet burritos! I tried this place based off a recommendation on insta and it's pretty decent. I love that they put the sour cream, pico and guacamole to the side, service was friendly and fast . I got the super wet burrito it included 3 meats, Asada,shredded chicken and honestly as I was driving home I thought to myself I don't even know what the third meat is lol anyhow it was good it could have used a little more seasoning in my opinion, but the price point was fabulous. For the super wet burrito, a small asada nacho and an asada taco it was $25.00 even! In today's economy I could appreciate that, I think next time I'll try the enchiladas. They're located in a strip mall with a good amount of parking they are closed on Saturdays and close at 3pm on Sundays, food is a 3.5 but price and good service will get them that 4!

FOOD IS FIRE!! Fast service, phone orders, clean and nice Mexican ambiance, nice owners and servers, GOOD PRICES, my new go to breakfast spot for burritos!! full and good serving size & agua frescas

AMAZING! Just moved a few miles away from the location, googled 'best breakfast burritos near me' a little over 2.5 mi away I found 'Los Sombreros Restaurant'. The reviews were all positive so I drove over. Plenty of parking was available, it's a small very casual location. I ordered a breakfast chorizo con huevo burrito, in a few minutes it was ready to go with a side of red salsa and plenty of napkins. Arrived home, took a bite and, well my exact thoughts were 'Holy Sh*t, this burrito is amazing'. I devoured. I will definitely be coming back again for breakfast and anything else I crave! Exceeded my expectations! Now, customer service wasn't the best. The woman literally called out my order, I walked up and before I could finish saying '¡Gracisa!' she had walked away. That will NOT deter me from returning, that was probably the best breakfast burrito under $7.00 I've ever had! read more

This place is my favorite, inexpensive Mexican restaurants to go to. There is such a wide variety of food on the menu, and everything I've tried is very good. My favorite is the carne asada fries, the best I've had! The only negative comment I have about this place is that sometimes I'll be charged extra for using my card to pay without being notified; there are no signs that say we will be charged due to not reaching a minimum amount. And other times, I wouldn't be charged extra at all. But overall, food is great and my co-workers and I come back all the time! read more

BEST MEXICAN FOOD in Compton! In my opinion it includes L.A. too. I came yesterday and my family and I had their super Nachos (very well served), my mom had the Chile Verde (best ones in her opinion compared to hers) and brother had their regular burrito (best one he's had in a while). And only paid $17. Today was just as good. Ordered their asada fries, enchiladas, and carne asada plate. So far it's just as delicious only paid $26 with drinks. All in all, this place is AMAZING! seems abandoned from the outside but u walk in and immediately feel welcomed read more

Sooo.. I had this spot bookmarked and literally never go on this side of CPT but the reviews were good.. I was near by and hungry for something good on a sunday after 2 nites of partying.. needed some comfort food.. not fast food. I am pleasantly surprised the location is very clean and they have an A, parking was good and im in! Im even so pleased Im going to eat there.. it was really lowkey maybe because it was sunday but the football game was on and a table or two eating.. the lady at the counter was warm and accommodating with everything i asked for.. as pictured, i ended up w a crispy potato taco which was pretty damn good.. light and crispy shell not greasy and came w guacamole and sour cream in it.. on point! along w a ground beef enchilada rice/beans.. think it was a #2.. she gave me fresh chips and salsa off to a good start and my food was super good.. prices more than reasonable that cost me $11 and i had enough to split my meal into 2... minus taking the taco down.. anyway, i was pleased and definitely will return when im in the area and looking for good mexican.. will even give their american food a try one day.. check it out.. read more

Then she told me what they put on the nachos with an attitude. After that she hanged up or the call dropped. I will not be going back after this because of her!

She was incredibly hospitable, especially since my husband and I were new patrons to her eatery. Naturally, I was craving tacos, as I often do. I was pleasantly surprised to discover this family-friendly eatery so close by. As you may know, they specialize in Birria, which, incidentally, is an impressive rendition of a traditional home-cooked meal. What I found most enjoyable about my dining experience was the grilled shells, which provided a delightful crunch. I appreciate various textures in my food, so I have specific preferences for how certain dishes are prepared. The flavors and seasoning combinations were also quite complimentary. I ordered the tacos, ramen, and quesabirria, and everything was delicious. The atmosphere is inviting, the food is prepared with care, and it is a family-owned business. They have now become a cherished part of my inner circle. Wendy, you and your family are truly gems, and I thank you for your hospitality.

If you're craving authentic antojitos from Ciudad Guzmán in the southern region of Jalisco,…read moreAntojitos Los Cuates in Compton is absolutely worth the drive. As someone who grew up enjoying the flavors of Jalisco, I had been yearning for the famous raspadas--large homemade tostadas--and the variety of traditional antojitos that are so popular back home. My family and I decided to give this place a try, so we made the drive all the way from Riverside County to Compton, and I can honestly say we were not disappointed. This is a small, family-owned restaurant with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The food tastes homemade, just like the meals your mamá would make in Jalisco. You can tell that every dish is prepared with care, tradition, and pride. We ordered the tostadas, tortas ahogadas, and tacos duros, and every item was packed with authentic flavor. Unfortunately, we arrived around 3:30 PM and missed out on the pozole because they had already sold out for the day. That alone tells me it's a favorite among their customers, so I highly recommend arriving early if you're hoping to try it. The service was excellent, and despite the restaurant being very busy, the staff remained friendly and attentive. Keep in mind that this is a small family-run establishment, so your food may take a little longer to arrive. However, that's because everything is made fresh to order, and the quality is well worth the wait. Places like this are becoming harder to find. If you're looking for authentic flavors from Jalisco and want to support a hardworking family business, Antojitos Los Cuates is a hidden gem that deserves a visit. We'll definitely be back.

It was pretty good but the egg itself was a bit overcooked. It was a strange combination but the Birria was tasty by itself. He would come back to try the meat in a taco. Could have used some sort of lighter element. Everything was too savory on the plate. The plate was screaming for something fresh on it. The cafe the olla was so good. A little on the sweet side but that is what is is. The chilaquiles were good too. I would say maybe add more salsa or get something else because it was way too much chips. This is def something you would share for the table a not got for yourself. I would come back to try something without chips. It's really cute inside. So well decorated but I can see how they can have a wait if it fills up since it got fully crowded while we waiting for the long wait to get out food.

Top Shelf Tacos

This review is mostly based on customer service. Service to me is almost always more important than…read morethe food itself. Haven't been here in a while. They had a food truck parked out front. We asked if they had any plant-based or vegan options. They only sold burgers however the lady that helped us was very sweet, polite, and kind. She told what they had and what we could order inside instead. We walked in and the gentleman named Oscar G. cashed us out. He was also very friendly! Very professional and knowledgeable about the menu and non-dairy items. Provided us with what we needed right away, the container for the salsa and brought out fresh ones for me. Very nice guy. The food came out right away. The portions were big in my opinion. The prices were decent, the portion was great, and best of all the service was good. Their self-serve condiments was a PLUS! I've been to a lot of taco spots and these were by far the freshest and crispiest cucumbers, fresh cold salsa, onions and cilantro was also fresh. The food was good and filled us up. It was simple but fulfilling. Will definitely be back and highly recommend it. There are plenty of indoor and outdoor seats as well.

I ordered the asada, carnitas, al pastor, tripas, cabeza, and lengua. The asada was tender with a nice grilled flavor, but my favorites were definitely the tripas and cabeza. Both were a little greasy, but in a good way--they had a lot of flavor and were probably the standouts of the meal for me. One thing I liked was the condiment bar. You can load up your tacos with as much onion and cilantro as you want, plus they have radishes and lime wedges available. They also offer two salsas, a red and a green. Both tasted good and had solid flavor, although I was hoping for a little more heat. Overall, it's a solid taco spot, especially on Taco Tuesday. Good variety of meats, reasonable prices, and plenty of toppings to customize your tacos. I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area and craving some tacos.

The…read moreparking lot isn't too big, but I've never had issues with parking since the other shops around aren't too busy. We normally call ahead to order our food, and it'll take roughly 10 - 15 minutes. Service is always solid - the workers are friendly and helpful. We normally get the carne asada/pollo fries and they're awesome. Fries are cooked perfectly (I swear there was a period of time where they coated the fries and that wasn't it, but thankfully they stopped), comes with the usual toppings like guacamole, onions, cilantro, etc. They top it with a hefty amount of juicy meat - both carne asada and pollo options are solid. Recently though I've been straying from fries and getting different dishes like the chicken flautas, enchiladas, and mulitas. Chefs kiss for each one. The rice and beans + salsa combo are also flavorful and pair nicely with the entree.

I ordered the Birria quesadilla and my fiancé ordered the Al Diablo Shrimp Burrito (ADSB). The ADSB was delicious and worth the price. The Birria Quesadilla should have included chips and salsa. It was only 3 taco sized portions with a side of consome and a slice of lime. In regards to the flavor of the Birria Quesadilla, it was delicious, but something I wouldn't order again. Overall, my experience was a great one. I would go back again to try something new.

The biggest draw here is the handmade tortillas, which are definitely a step above average. However, this was the first taco shop where I actually watched pieces of fat being added to the asada tacos, something I've seen other reviewers mention as well. The al pastor wasn't carved from a trompo; instead, it was served as chopped pieces of pork in sauce, which wasn't my preferred style. The birria was good, but nothing particularly memorable compared to other places I've tried. That said, the restaurant seems very popular with locals, and being open past 6 p.m. is a plus in an area where many restaurants close early. Prices are lower than what you'd typically find at a brick-and-mortar taqueria, which may reflect the local market. One thing to note is that there is no customer restroom, so it feels more geared toward takeout than dining in. Most of the customers I saw appeared to be picking up food to go. Overall, it's a solid neighborhood taco spot if you're already in the area, but not necessarily a destination-worthy stop.
