So a bit of a funny story. I came looking for Mariscos Jalisco having had my sights on it since I…read morewatched the Jonathan Gold documentary shortly after moving to LA. I had the address on my car navigation but as I drove up to the block I noticed the 4 Vientos truck and wrongly assumed this was Jalisco. So I turned it and promptly ordered at the truck. I did briefly question why the signage was different but the long queues and the delicious looking morsels that everyone around me were eating made me assume once again that I was at the right place. In my ignorance, I did not know that this entire stretch of Olympic Blvd was home to many such mariscos and taco trucks. In any case, I ordered. I ate. I was plenty satisfied and more than impressed and it wasn't until after I got home and did more research that I realized I was at the 4 Vientos truck. Well, no harm done. It just meant I needed to go back for the Jalisco truck very soon. Fresh seafood! Excellent tostadas. You can't go wrong!

The avocado and salsa on top also added creaminess and freshness. It wasn't as flavorful compared to a similar taco from the nearby Mariscos Jalisco, but I did enjoy the raw seafood and fresh flavors. The spot is a food truck with no areas to sit (not sure of there was). Cash only I believe as well. A great spot, but I think I would still opt for Mariscos Jalisco.

This location has the relaxed vibes of a roadside shack. The service is super kind and friendly. I was working in the area for a while, and I had an early dinner here (they close on the earlier side) and a lunch. Like everywhere else the prices feel like they're creeping up, but you seriously get so much relative to the price here. One visit I got the shrimp Dorado taco and shrimp tostada. They definitely don't skimp and it was more food than I needed. On my other trip, I got a fish ceviche tostada and Ensenada style fish taco. Just as enjoyable as the other meal here. But if you're in the area, I'm looking for some fresh Mexican seafood that is reasonable and won't break the bank this is a really great option.

They have sidewalk tables to eat there but I always take mines to go cuz I live down the street & THEY TAKE ZELLE !! Yes it's not cheap, but it's worth every penny. Some times I've gone they take their time & others their quick. I always get pata de mula & it is so meaty & flavorful. I don't like oysters cuz they just have an ocean salt freshness to them but the PDM has a deep flavor, think of blanco tequila vs mezcal. Their fried shrimp tacos are good, but I prefer 4 Vientos better (yup I said that) & the pulpo here is good too. The actual coktel liquid & spices they use are yummy. There's just such a freshness to the pulpo, shrimp, scallops, oysters & PDM that is mesmerizing. Oh & the sautéed fish taco is yummy I'll always recommend & return for sure Customer Service is professional & hospitable

We tried the flautas de pollo (comes with a delicious guacamole!), a chile relleno & pescado a la parrilla (my bf didn't care for that one very much; it was just okay).

It was evenly distributed. The bread of the torta was soft & they were not skimpy with the avocado either! Writing this review has made me hungry again. Lol -It truly tastes like homemade food; the corn tortillas are freshly made as you order food. We had questions about the aguas frescas & the staff gave us a sample of it; which we appreciated. It's tiny, but it doesn't feel uncomfortable. They have a lot of Mexican decor too, with a great playlist. I especially like the little birds at the entrance of the restaurant. :)

Los Angeles Times Food featured this taco truck about how L.A.'s taquerias were in survival mode at the start of COVID ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l_PgEn2LoZM ). [Parking]: I missed the turn, ended up at Starbucks a block away, and walked here. The taco truck is located right next to a smog check shop. [Atmosphere & ordering]: No outside chairs or tables, so I ended up eating tacos inside of my car. There was no waiting line at 9:15 PM on Friday. No salsa bar as they put salsa directly on tacos. [Menu]: Proteins include asada (grilled beef), cabeza (beef head), suadero (slow-cooked beef cut), al pastor (marinated pork), birria (stewed meat), pescado empanizado (breaded fish), chorizo con papas (Mexican sausage with potatoes), and tripas (beef intestines). Tacos = $2.25, burritos = $11.00, Quesadillas = $9.00, Mulitas = $3.00, Tacos de Pescado / Tacos de Tripa = $2.50. *** Asada Taco and Al Pastor Taco ($2.25 each): These were double-layered tortillas. Both options were great and meats were well-seasoned with just right amount of spicy level. Onion was good too. *** I like tacos from El Flaco Tacos better than tacos from Tacos El Güero in East LA.
