tl;dr Armenian flavor meets Mexican street food at this Silver Lake takeout-only joint; while the…read moresignature falafel tacos are worthy of the hype, don't miss out on the thick-and-juicy quesadillas Although Los Angeles is home to even the most niche fusion cuisine, I still raised my eyebrows at the prospect of Mexican-Armenian fare. But that's just what fast-casual taqueria MidEast Tacos has on the menu. From the mind behind beloved Glendale Armenian restaurant Mini Kabob, this self-proclaimed "Home of the Original Falafel Tacos" began as a USC-area pop-up before moving to a permanent brick-and-mortar location on a busy corner of Silver Lake. MidEast Tacos is located on a busy corner of Sunset. The brick building sports a vibrant coat of aqua graffiti art. Geometric plastic chairs and metal two-seater tables are organized under burlap canopies across the adjacent sidewalk. The interior is counter service-only. Contemporary hip-hop blends with sizzle from the open kitchen. My partner and I visited MidEast Tacos for weekend lunch, and we had no trouble ordering quickly and grabbing a table. The sleeper hit was the Chicken Quesadilla. The slightly charred flour tortilla was crispy and sturdy against the thick filling of juicy grilled chicken, melty cheese, and fragrant sauces and spices. The tacos were individually much less filling, but each still lasted 3 generous bites. We preferred the crispy Falafel Taco, although I poured on a healthy helping of sauce. The Steak Taco sported tender, flavorful steak chunks, but it was outdone by the falafel. Our hearty side of Papas cottage fries was addictively unique. The half-fry, half-chip skin-on potato slices were intermittently crispy and chewy, but never dull. Across the sauces, our consensus favorite was the Toum Arbol, a rich chiptole garlic spread. A close second was the pepper-forward Salsa Rojas, while the mild Avocado Salsa was relatively light and bright. The service was efficient, and our order was prepared within 10 minutes. The only unsavory aspect of the meal was the $40 price tag; otherwise, we struggled to find any complaints. I finished feeling surprisingly satiated, in body and in spirit. Frankly, MidEast Tacos doesn't get enough fanfare for its downright delicious food; it's one of my favorite spots in Silver Lake.

The burrito was nicely sized, but was primarily rice. The few pieces of chicken that I had actually tasted pretty good. Although the salsa was omitted, the burrito was still a bit spicy. We also tried the falafel taco, that can be made vegan, and the chicken taco. The food was ordered online and was ready for pick up pretty fast. Service was friendly at this small spot that has limited outdoor seating. Overall, not a repeat location for us.

*** Cash or Zelle only ***…read more Alejandra's Quesadilla is a food cart located in Echo Park (more specifically right next to LADOT Lot 643 - 1147 Echo Park Ave). The food cart specializes in blue corn quesadillas. The food cart has been around for 20 years and is now run by Alejandra's daughter. [Parking]: Metered street parking is available or just park at LADOT Lot 643. [Atmosphere]: Takeout only and our party ended up eating the quesadilla in my car. [Ordering]: One of the ladies took my order and another lady did the grilling. Once the quesadillas are ready, customers can add various condiments like cactus, mild salsa, red salsa, and cilantro. The cart is quite popular and our party had to wait approximately 15 minutes on Sunday at 6:15 PM. All quesadillas are cooked to order and the lady manually pressed every blue corn tortilla by hand. [Menu]: The cart offers chicken, pork, chorizo, squash blossoms (flor de calabaza), chicharrón, potato, and huitlacoche (corn smut, or the "Mexican truffle"). Customers can mix and match fillings like chorizo and potato. *** Squash Blossom Quesadilla ($8): The order came with an extra piece of skirt steak. This quesadilla tasted much better than I had expected and it was actually quite delicious. I was a big fan of the mild green salsa and it definitely enhanced the overall flavor. *** It was an unexpected street food find and I can actually see myself revisiting this food cart and try different quesadilla options whenever I am in the Echo Park area.

If you're looking for a local taco stand that will blow your mind, look no further!…read more This place was recommended by a friend so we decided make the drive and check it out as we're always in search for great taco spots. It's at the corner of Temple St & Parkman Ave in LA. Fairly new but they know what they're doing over there! Tried their chicken, carnitas, & asada tacos. They have this yellow-ish spicy sauce that's to die for! It's called chile de arbol. Their pickled onions were also delicious! Had to also try their quesadilla. Decided to get it with a mix of chicken, carnitas, & asada. OMG! A must try! Service with Ricky & Sergio was a five star! Food was a five star! Price was a five star (very reasonable)! We will definitely go back soon!

It's just a food vendor stand and not actually a fixed establishment but like clockwork, you see this guy cooking away every night in Silver Lake. I love this place for a few reason: Quality: Manny takes pride in his food from the extra sauces and ingredients to the simple presentation. I love how he not only puts some high quality ingredients from the sauces to the guac but he even takes the time to toast the burritos on the outside. That has to be one of my favorite things as I love that toasty, cruncy feel. He'll of course make it anyway you want though so you gotta love that face it's "your way"... Support: I love supporting those who work hard for their money, love doing it and just seem happy. Thumbs up for Manny and Last Call Tacos. I'l have to admit. I've came here a few times in my shorts even when I'm not out and about at a bar.

After indulging in the liquid offerings from the beer gods, they found themselves to be overwhelmingly inebriated. As thunder roared, and lightning began to strike nearby, Brent looked over to Josh and Jon through the heavy downpour, and said; "We better find some food". Both Josh and Jon agreed. The young adventurers began their trek up the menacing incline of sunset boulevard. The naive travelers struggled mightily, wobbling back and fourth, trying to remain composed under the torrential downpour, battling fatigue and intoxication. Gaining ground quickly; Brent, Josh, and Jon seemed to solidify their wavering optimism. "We can do this!" shouted Josh through the deafening roar of the storm. As the boys continued their adventure, they began to smell....what seemed to be a heavenly sent of fresh, homemade tortillas, and al pastor. "This has to be a trick" Jon uttered in a drunken mumble, and the boys carried on. Further up the road, the storm had slowed, providing a brief moment of silence during which Brent heard a rustling and gurgling coming from what looked like a mound of perpetual blackness. "You guys stay here, I'll check it out" shouted Brent bravely. Brent noticed this blackness was a cover, maybe a blanket. He approached the blackness, as the storm began roaring as loud as ever, grabbed this blanket and tossed it aside. He saw a woman lying beneath the blanket, lightening struck the tree above in a mighty rumble, and the woman rose, Brent shreiked and began to run as the woman yelled "get the hell out of here, I'm sleeping!" The homeless woman shooed the boys away, when finally the storm let up, and the smell of homemade tortillas and al pastor returned. The travelers looked up and saw two hispanic gods holding spatulas in front of a large futuristic cooking device. The sun once again shone as the clouds parted, and rays of light began to beam down upon these men. Brent, Josh, and Jon had the feast of gods (for only $5) and the great adventurers were cured of their inebriation and ready once again to begin a new conquest of divine libations at the Thirsty Crow Bar. This food is seriously THAT amazing!
