Raúl's Casa Sombrero has been a South Bay hub for many years for those that are wanting a feeling…read moreof homemade Mexican dishes and company. First, just like most casual Mexican restaurants you are greeted with house made salsa and chips to snack on while you study the menus for your meal. The salsa is very fresh and the chips are not, thank goodness, over salted. It's a perfect starter! I enjoyed the meal option of four chicken flautas with rice, beans, and perfectly portioned guacamole and sour cream. You are able to make your own choice of meat stuffing, which I love, knowing that the flautas are freshly made. I chose to have chicken and found it to be perfectly fried, not overly seasoned, which some places do. I like that you can actually taste the chicken and not just spice. I also had the horchata to drink, and I loved it! The service is wonderful, with many families flocking to the restaurant for that homemade feel for dinner. The staff has always been kind enough to offer a refill of your drink/soda to go if you wish. Kindness from the staff is a real highlight of Raul's. The ambiance of being at home is a plus for me. There are a few handicap parking spots available in the small adjoined parking lot, with easy wheelchair access through the front door. There is also plenty of parking spots located on the street and in the available parking lot located in the middle of Hawthorne Blvd. There is a television with captions on for those that are HOH, hard of hearing. Being a hearing aide user, I sincerely appreciated this. I consider this a hidden gem in Hawthorne.

Ambiance is Spanish music in the background with colorful decor. Staff were attentive in bringing the menus and waters and serving the food. I got the jr super burrito ($16.99). Apparently asada as the protein is $2 extra so be warned since that is in very small writing on the menu. The burrito itself was yummy with sour cream, guac, and pico de gallo on the side with enchilada sauce drizzled on top. Portion was pretty okay for the price, leaning towards high though.

I've spotted El…read moreFogon Guatemalan Food Truck near my work a few times and I've always found myself intrigued with their yummy looking food. I finally made the stop to check them out! I'm a big fan of birria and I was torn between trying out their birria ramen or their quesabirrias. The guy who was working the truck said they were both great but it was the quesabirrias that is their best seller. With each taco being only $4, it seemed quite the deal! I chose to go with the quesabirrias and I am really glad I did. These tacos were made fresh upon order. They came out hot and crisp! I loved the melted cheese and the tender beef inside. I found that they were actually quite generous with the beef. It was very fulfilling and I was quite happy! I definitely want to also get the Birria ramen one day. Their Garnachas is also something I'd like to try!

Found this place via yelp. Let me start off with why I…read moredidn't give 5 stars. It definitely had the potential too. My number one reason, they CHARGE a crazy % to pay with a CARD! My bill was almost $8 dollars MORE just because I paid with card. What type of restaurant charges to pay with a debit card?!?!? Which means the higher your bill the more you get charged on your bill if paying with card. That is definitely something they should let all customers know on their website or when someone calls or right when they come in to eat. Honestly extremely frustrating and one of the reasons I didn't leave a tip. My second reason, Our waitress was as bland and dry as their rice. She didn't introduce herself, she was a bit rude and seemed like she didn't want to be there. I definitely felt rushed by her when ordering and she wasn't attentive. I asked for sour cream and it came out watered down...? Sour cream should be thick. So my only down fall on food was the dry dry dry rice & the liquid sour cream. The rest of our food was delicious, everyone enjoyed their meal. My daughter ordered the carnitas wet burrito, very yummy, my other daughter ordered birria tacos, she said were good. My mom ordered asada place with cheese enchilada, which she enjoyed. My aunt ordered chicken salad and tortilla soup. The salad was just a salad, but she said the soup was flavorful and full of veggies. I had the chimichanga (beef) plate, was very delicious meat and the beans were yummy. Again, rice was not good on its own. Over all, I'd give the food a 4.5 not a full 5 because the rice was so dry and they gave me watered down sour cream. Didn't care for the salsa with the chips, very tomato flavor heavy, I asked if they had a spicy salsa and they do which was very good. The place itself is very small but super cute inside and out, Parking is also very limited. So if you decide to give this place a try, HAVE CASH**** to avoid a crazy fee. Be careful of the dry rice.

A friend from church shared La Villa's family takeout special with us, and that's how we discovered…read morethis little gem! We decided to stop in after church and give it a try. The restaurant is small, but we were able to get a table in the back corner. It was a little snug, but honestly, our hunger was more pressing. First up--the chips and salsa were THE BOMB! That salsa was so fresh, flavorful, and had just the right kick. I could have--and pretty much did--drink it. They also brought us a bowl of beans topped with crema, and my kids were practically fighting over them. My husband and kids ordered burritos: two steak, one chile verde, and one chorizo. They were a good size and were instantly devoured, which is always a good sign! I ordered their $11 special: an enchilada, chicken taco, beans, and rice. It was flavorful, filling, and straight-up OG Mexican food. I really enjoyed my entire plate, especially for the price. My only complaint was the noise level. We had a speaker directly over our table, so the music was pretty loud, and the table next to us was a little loud as well. It made conversation a bit difficult at times. But all in all, we will definitely be back! I'm so happy we discovered another Mexican restaurant to add to our rotation. Now, La Villa... I just need that salsa recipe! I need a few cups so I can drink it! I loved learning that they've been around since 1969.

We came for the first time and were confused by the menu. We had a family of 4 so wanted to order…read morethe family pack. Was told that was only for to-go. Ended up ordering burritos, tamales, enchiladas, hard and soft shell tacos, etc. - Tamales were the best. Meaty carnitas - burrito was next best. Meaty, not too much filling. I'm from NM so love the wet style. It bugged me that you have to pay extra for Christmas style. Who really likes getting charged for a lick of sauce? How much does that sauce really cost the business? Look, I walked away and I still remember you wanted to charge me some nominal fee for the sauce. I told my friends. Now I'm telling my friends on Yelp. The owner should read up on pricing psychology. He probably doesn't want to be known as the guy who charges for sauce, is my guess. - Chicken taco was a nice size and tasted ok - enchiladas were mid Salsa is only free for the first 2 servings. Even for a table of 4, that bugged me. Again, he's known now as the guy who nickels and dimes. Sigh. Ambiance is dark inside like a pub. It would look more modern and family friendly with more natural light. As most would expect out of a restaurant. We came here during a World Cup game. The game was on. That was a plus We were thinking of coming back to order the family pack. Then no one at home would charge me extra for the salsa. ha!! I read just now in another review that this place charges for hot water. Ok then, the owners is STRIVING to be the nickel and dime people. Yelpers are talking and people are listening. Do yourselves a favor and reverse these dumb pricing practices. You'll never know the business you are losing for the $2 here and $3 there. It's never worth it!
