They have giant al pastor spinning but most of the meats are already cooked in the metal tins. One potato per order now. The meats were tender with asada being my favorite here. Brisket is also good if you prefer a fattier meat. They have sauce station with different spices. Grilled onions, raw onions, and cilantro to your liking. Another booth sells drinks. I got the horchata and tasted pretty standard. Great place to take someone to try out LA tacos.

Speedy, no frills, cheap tacos in a parking lot - so no real notes on service. Toppings are self…read moreserve. You tell one person what your order is, walk up to the register, and then load up on toppings/salsas. It's $2.50 a taco on the smaller sides which isn't a bad deal in this economy. Great that it's open 24/7. There's an awning but no seats though, so you'll have to eat at your car. Got the carne asada, pastor, cabeza, and lengua. The carne asada and lengua were super disappointing - dry and bland. The pastor was and cabeza were better, but nothing special. Appreciate the free potato with each order, and toppings included grilled onions, fresh onions and cilantro, salsas, limes, and radishes.

El Gato Night Market is packed with amazing food, drinks, and adorable vendors, but Ariana's always steals the show for me. The staff are super sweet, quick, and you can taste the love in every bite. The crepe is warm and perfectly balanced -- the rich chocolate and pistachio cream blend together perfectly with that crunchy kataifi, while the strawberries add a fresh, juicy touch. They're only open Thursday through Sunday, which makes the wait feel like part of the ritual -- and totally worth it every single time. If you're headed to El Gato, do yourself a favor and make sure to stop by Ariana's Crepes!

Last night was the first, of what I hope will be, many more trips to this market, god willing. Food - 5/5. Bold flavors sure to smack your palate upside its head. Birria grilled cheese sandwich.

I think this place is called Tacos Los Poblanos #1 Estilo Tijuana on Google Maps. First off, tacos…read morehere are the BOMB. Tortilla is freshly made, meat is always fresh. I love the Cabeza tortilla and 3 is the perfect number of tacos for me as they are pretty generous with the meat and avocado sauce. Been here twice and both times because we were going to a show at the Forum which is just a short drive away. It gets pretty busy around dinner time so expect a long wait as the line moves pretty slowly (everything is made/ cooked fresh!)... but the wait is 100% worth it. Just make sure you order enough the first time so you dont have to wait in line again. There is some parking but it gets pretty crowded too so you might have to street park (and the area around can get a little sketch) so be careful. The second time we came here was almost 1130pm right before their midnight closing. This time, the parking lot was emptier so we managed to park inside. There was still a pretty steady stream of customers even around closing, but at least the line isn't ridiculously long. Can't go wrong with anything you order here!

I got the carne asada tacos, al pastor tacos, and a mulitas. My favorite was definitely the mulitas because I love cheese! They are known for their carne asada, but I actually preferred their al pastor because it was so juicy.

I've walked by this place a lot when I go on my new 5 mile walk around the neighborhood. And…read moresometimes, there is a huge line out here. The food absolutely smells amazing each time you walk by too, but it's not like I can just stop and eat here because that means that five mile walk I did was for nothing. But today... Today was the day to make my five mile walk for nothing!!! I decided to order a carne asada taco. It was $3. I wanted to try it because just looking at the meat each time, it looked amazing. Then they made it. And when they stacked on all the meat on top of the tortilla, it barely even all fit on there. But what do you do when you can't fit anything on top? The answer is simple. You get all the toppings you can like salsa and cilantro and so forth and stick it on top! I took a nibble of the meat before biting into the taco and I was like, you know what, this is it. This is what you want in a taco. This is high quality meat. Then when you blend all the ingredients together, you have everything you want. The service is solid. The ambiance is outdoors. If you make it here, get something here because it's pretty amazing.

Their fries even come out hot and fresh from an on-site fryer. My go-to is their super tender, fatty suadero! Crowd-favorite seems to be the al pastor - it's roasted with pineapple, bringing that yummy sweet-savory balance. The workers are generous with portions, loading up tacos, burritos, and nachos like they're feeding close friends, all at a price that feels like a steal. There's plenty of unlimited grilled jalapenos and onions, salsas, and more to go around! I love that the workers give the burrito to us open faced so we can pile on condiments to our heart's content before they roll it all up neatly. We were so impressed that we fully abandoned our taco crawl plans and came back for seconds. Note: This spot is located in a high traffic area of LA. A parking lot sits conveniently right behind the stand, so you won't have to struggle for parking. Highly recommend swinging by for amazing late night munchies! No frills here, just quick eats that hit the spot every time.

LocoLotes is run by the nicest people, they have a really good business of providing accessible catering-style esquites for any event. Their corn is fresh, the toppings are well-prepped, and the team that delivers my order every time always sets everything up perfectly, I don't have to lift a finger! It's also really easy to clean up. The food is always scraped clean, no leftovers in sight. I was even asked by my current coworkers to order this once a month because it is a definite morale booster (that good). Book LocoLotes and taste their great corn cups!

Located at RFK High School in Koreatown LA, this location was central and provided lots of space for food stands, food trucks, games, merch stands, drink stands, music stage, you name it. They even had a (huge) sneaker expo stand! I did not see any performers on the music stage, but they posted some content online and it looks like they killed it! Minzy from 2NE1 headlined the first night. I did not have a chance to see everything as I was with a group of people (takes longer to do virtually everything), but there was so much to see! The food I did try: Xing Fu Tang strawberry boba, yakitori yado mochi chicken skewer, kimchi rice ball, pork belly rice ball, thai basil chicken. Everything was good. It was busy! Get there early as by 7:30pm or so it was wall to wall people (some wearing masks, some not as they were recommended only). Had a great time - they have rebooted this event so well!

They have lots of food vendors, not all the same as the typical 626 night market vendors tho. Venue is placed inside a highschool. The vendors are on race track, basketball courts, and good ol' lawn. This year (first opening after pandemic) they have less vendors than before. But place is jammed packed the later it gets. They have big seating area and nice spots in corners for you to sit on the floor tho. Ticket is $10 (plus service fee if you buy online). Parking structure is $18. You will have to walk, since it's in the middle of city.
