Jefe Tacos
Cee V.

Was pretty excited to try this place out. I ordered 2 of the jefe tacos and was left disappointed. Flavor was there but for a six buck taco, I was expecting more. I guess this is what most people rave about? Go down the street and get your money's worth. Won't be back.

Really?

The food is always good. I get the ground beef crispy taco. Odd thing this the only ground beef item on the menu. Service always good. Rather disappointing on the last visit saw this sign on the tables. I guess that's a way to make you buy more?

3 Tacos Plate
Czarina D.

REALLY DELICIOUS! My biggest compliment was that the meats were INSANELY delicious. Potentially some of the best carne asada I've ever had. I was originally craving some "trash" Mexican food such as Albert's or Alberto's (and I say "trash" in the most loving way possible because I love and adore places like those). Decided to take a chance on Norwalk Taco Factory cuz the reviews were so good. THIS WAS NOT TRASH MEXICAN FOOD. This was like a more elevated experience of Alberts/Albertos and it was oh so good. I ended up trying the Carne Asada Fries (Loaded Fries with Carne Asada), Chicken Nachos (Super Nachos with Chicken), Quesadilla with Al Pastor, and the 3 Tacos Plate. And OMG! Everything was SOOO GOOD. The meats were genuinely the standout. This meant that every dish was truly delicious in their own way. The carne asada fries were insanely yummy, the quesadilla had no right to be that addictive (it's just meat and cheese! why was it so good), the nachos were delicious, and the tacos were crazy good. Highly recommend this restaurant!

Machaca plate with homemade flour tortillas

The food at Norwalk Taco Factory was so good. We tried the breakfast burrito and the machaca plate, and both were delicious and super filling. The flour tortillas are made from scratch and are incredibly good. The red salsa is seriously addictive -- we couldn't stop putting it on everything. Service was fast and friendly, and the decor is modern, fresh, and very clean. Definitely a spot we'll be coming back to.

Came on a Thursday afternoon and received great service & food! Ordered the 4 enchiladas plate with chicken, half green half red and was the best decision! The red sauce is tasty with a hint of spice! The green is well seasoned & just the right amount of acidity from the tomatillo! The sides were definitely good! All their salsas are DELICIOUS! My favorite was the Chipotle creamy salsa! The service here was excellent, our server was friendly and attentive! The ambience is wonderful, plenty of tables and well kept in cleanliness. Oh! They play some great jams in there! They had some 60s-70s music station and my family & I enjoyed it! :D I want to go back soon! Highly recommend! Solid spot for some enchiladas and tacos! :D

Super Nachos with carne asada!

The LA metro often has an array of cuisine to try, one of my favorites being Mexican food! Norwalk Taco Factory is located right in the middle of town, and offers a large selection of Mexican food that's sure to leave you wanting more. The restaurant allows you to see the entire kitchen, making room for an authentic street dining experience, indoors! Ordering over the phone is fairly simple and easy, and you will be greeted with a smile! Our food was delicious and affordable! The only thing I wish they had was refillable dine in drinks if you eat in.

Chile Chilaquiles were good, but not the portion $20 for this, it's worth I'd say $10-$12 for the amount of food
Tim E.

Service was good, Waitting over 25mins for a to go order, salsa on food was good. I'd go back to try something else. Clean and nice environment.. is a sit down restaurant but more of just like a casual place

Chilaquiles with steak
Natalie G.

Called in an order for pick-up for two plates of chilaquiles, one with steak and one with steak and chicken. I don't like soggy chilaquiles and have been trying to find a spot that does not drown the chips in sauce and glad that I found this spot! The chips were a good texture of not overly soggy and had a good crunch but I'm sure you can ask for extra sauce if needed. The steak was soft and had a good taste. Salsa was also good. The only note I have is that for one order I asked for double protein (steak and chicken) but I wasn't clear on it being extra protein (not half and half) but that was on me. Phone staff member and cashier were both friendly.

I live near by and finally decided to stop by for lunch. WOW THAT FOOD WAS DELICIOUS. The steaks and chicken fajitas , carnitas plate and taquitos. Plus HAND MADE TORTILLAS? Service 10/10 prices were very very reasonable for the serving. It's a small cute place to eat, no alcohol is served. But if you are ever in the area wanting a good plate of Mexican food? This is the place to go.

Tempura Fish Taco *Fajita Taco, and jefes favorite taco
Elina B.

Antonia was super friendly, great customer service. Food is genuinely delicious. La comida tiene sazon, tortillas made in house, and flan is bomb too. Definitely coming back to try more tacos. Next time I'm a get the potato taco it looks like an elevated version of how mom used to make it. P.S. portions are big

This that $15 carne asada burrito. That's an expensive bean n rice burrito

DELICIOUS! Came here…read moreon a saturday evening and it was fairly packed with all the other food trucks in the area. Dulce Canella has so many options to choose from but we got the Dubai Strawberries, Churros, Mini Pancakes, Atole, and Fried oreos. Everything was sooooo delicious and made fresh to order! You can see them cooking and frying everything in front of you, which is amazing! The Atole was one of the best i've had, usually they seem to be a bit more water down, but their Atole was not like that AT ALL. It was so flavorful. The strawberries they top the pancakes with and they use for the dubai strawberries were perfectly sweet too, it went well with everything. Their service was quick and kind, they recommended so many amazing things and everything was priced great too. Highly recommend supporting a business like Dulce Canella! So so delicious!

I got their fruity pebbles shake, Dubai chocolate strawberries, fried Twinkies, and foodie plater which comes with mini pancakes, fried Oreos, and churros with 2 toppings and I got their fruity pebbles and lechera. Everything is super fresh and made to order. The fruity pebbles shake was creamy, rich, perfectly sweet, with plenty of fruity pebbley flaves. The strawberries in the Dubai chocolate strawberries were fresh, tart, sweet, massive and perfectly balanced the rich nutty pistachio butter and Nutella that was loaded in there with that crispity crunchy kataifi. This was my first time trying a fried Twinkie and Oreo and wow. A crisp yet fluffy pillowy pancake like batter that perfectly balanced the sweet soft Twinkie and Oreo inside. MNM. The churros were also really good. Made to order, Hot, fresh, amazingly crispity crunchy, sugary, and definitely pure deliciousity. The mini pancakes were fluffy, pillowy, had a lightly sweet vanilla flave with a lightly crisp exterior. Everything paired well with the toppings and was a nice sweet treat. Overall this place is pretty good. Foodie platter $15 Fried Twinkies $7.28 Dubai chocolate strawberries $13.52 Fruity pebbles shake $6.76

They also have espresso drinks, yuzu, banana topping, hojicha, and non caffeinated drinks. They used to have the best shaved ice too but I didn't see it on the menu this time.

I am not a huge fan of the rotating flavors. I actually came here because I saw on Yelp they had a matcha mixed with ube flavor but apparently that ended the week prior. Also the person who made mine did not do the best job and it was pretty sloppy and not very aesthetic. C'mon you can make it neater than this crooked ice cream cone. 5/10 Cost - $9.12 ok this is WAY too over priced. It should be priced at around $7.50 - $8.50 MAX. Trust me, I know the market value of this. I have tried 3 other matcha soft serve spots in the SoCal region in the past couple months.

Update: They're no longer affiliated with Fivestars!…read more I've since gone two additional times to try their waffle bites. My last trip was kind of spontaneous because I suddenly got a Fivestars reward that day for these waffle bites. However, when I arrived, I was looking for the Fivestars tablet only to be met by a Clover tablet instead. It felt like I went through a time warp because the employee working behind the register didn't seem to have any idea what I was trying to say regarding Fivestars, though he did notice a little trifold card on the front counter mentioning Fivestars. I asked if he could get his manager so I could explain, and even show, him my Fivestars reward. The reward said "already accepted", which he almost thought meant I had redeemed it already, but if that were the case, then it would have said "already redeemed". Given that they've now done away with Fivestars, I'm not too surprised he may have gotten the words "accepted" confused with "redeemed", but luckily, he was happy enough to honor it for me. The employee who assisted me was very helpful, though he did ask me to repeat the topping and the drizzle that I wanted. I chose the Strawberry Cheesecake flavor ice cream with Fruity Pebbles toppings and a Strawberry drizzle on top. Since I had already tried the cookie flavors before, I figured I'd try the fruity flavors this time around. He said he needed about 5 minutes to prepare my waffle bites, which were presented a little different than last time. Last time, I got the Cookie Butter flavor with *Cookie* Crisp and Peanut *Butter* (see what I did there?), and it came in a small plastic takeout container. This one came in a large plastic cup, and I'm thinking the logistics may have changed a ton between my last two visits. I did appreciate how the employee asked if I wanted the waffles on top of or beneath the ice cream before making the waffle bites; I chose on top. He also asked if I'd like powdered sugar on top, to which I agreed. Unfortunately, neither of the waffle bites I got from my last two visits impressed me that much. As a matter of fact, the only thing that impressed me was the strawberry drizzle. Everything else fell kind of flat. While generous in size for the $8 price tag, the Cookie Butter and the Strawberry Cheesecake ice cream didn't really taste like these flavors at all! For whatever reason, the peanut butter didn't add much flavor, but the strawberry drizzle added a lot! How even?! In short, the waffle bites weren't that much of an upgrade from the ice cream scoop that I had on my first visit. I'm willing to say "too much good was no good" here. The waffles themselves were good, but they can only do so much when a flavored ice cream doesn't even taste like that flavor. It's worth noting that on my penultimate visit, when I got the Cookie Butter Waffle Bites, I saw two employees behind the front counter who were ready to take my order. I asked them to explain what the waffle bites were, but it took them a couple of tries to actually understand what I was asking. From what I gathered, the waffle bites were similar to the ice cream scoop I had on my first visit, but with the addition of a warm waffle to supplement the ice cream. However, the step-by-step process remains the same. I was initially told it would take 6 minutes to prepare the Cookie Butter Waffle Bites, but it actually took 15! It seemed like one was training the other or they were trying to gather the ingredients and/or the steps needed to create the waffle bites. After about 10 minutes, I was told by one of the employees they had to make a new batch of waffles because the first batch had burnt. The music was getting pretty loud, so it was hard to hear him after that, but I didn't want to hold up the kitchen prep process any longer. I just said "Alright, sure" so he could continue preparing my order. I do appreciate how he let me know of this so that I'd know the reason for the extended wait, but I wish they weren't so ill-prepared during my visit. So overall, still 3 stars overall. I appreciate the prior partnership with Fivestars, but these missed opportunities have led me to believe that Cravings is just not for me. I doubt I'll try anything else on their ice cream menu, and considering that there are only a few parking spots in their lot, it will take a lot to get me to try their hot chicken. And speaking of lack of parking, I also want to mention that on my second visit, I saw two open parking stalls right in front of Cravings, one on either side of a car. That car had its driver's side wide open so that I couldn't park there. I had to park on the passenger side of that car, which he left much less room for. Perhaps a microcosm of the clientele in this part of town? Everybody deserves a second chance, right? Unfortunately, not everybody can make the most of them, and this is just one example of such. Thanks for the sweet treats Cravings, but I'll get my next one somewhere else.

If you are looking for a unique experience stop by Cravings Ice Cream! The menu is fun and I have…read morenot seen anything like their options before. The ice cream was a 5/5 for me, the toppings, and waffles combined well giving a crunch to the soft ice cream. Free parking is available but limited, and they have outdoor seating with a v for entertainment. I was joyed to see the international snacks available for purchase! I had to buy some oreos. Another perk was the eatery nextdoor!

My friend got the Ube cheesecake. I tried a bit. It was soooo good. I wanted more but too shy to get more hahha The Ube bread pudding warmed up was super delicious. I was told that it was one of the best. I agree! It included Ube ice cream. Could get it on the side or on top of the bread. Not a big fan of the Ube ice cream. Will definitely try other items. Was a bit sad that the flan Ube and turon pop tart was sold out. Gonna try to get it next time =]

Such a cute ice cream shop with a wide variety of unique and delicious flavors!…read more Upon entering, we were greeted by the friendly staff. I really appreciated how nice and helpful the workers were. The girl who helped us offered recommendations and let us sample a handful of flavors. Ultimately we decided to get a flight which included 4 flavors of kid sized scoops for $15. They had a "Brewed and Bold" offering as part of their seasonal menu so we decided to get the Black Sesame Cookies and Cream, Thai Tea Buttercrunch, Matchaberry Brownie, and their Hojicha Chip. The ice cream flavors were subtle but so delicious and refreshing. I can't wait to come back and try more of their flavors. Parking can be a bit tough depending on the time of day as it's in a busy plaza shared with other eateries, but thankfully we were able to snag a spot within a few minutes.

I've been holding off on writing this review for a while because I really wanted to give them a…read morechance to improve, but after my recent visit, it's clear things are only getting worse. The ice cream here is honestly horrible. It is aggressively, tooth-achingly sweet--to the point where it feels like you're eating straight corn syrup. If you're looking for actual flavor, look elsewhere; this stuff just tastes like "diabetes in a cup." To make matters worse, the consistency is a mess. It melts way too fast, turning into a sugary soup before you can even get through half of it. I also made the mistake of buying a tub to take home once, only to realize the expiration date was incredibly soon. For the price they charge, you'd expect high-quality ingredients and a decent shelf life, but it just feels cheap and poorly made. Save your money and your health. I won't be coming back. PS. It's a blessing in disguise that they're currently closed because a car ran into their front store.

Parking: They're located in a high foot traffic plaza, so finding a parking spot can be difficult. Ambiance/Environment: They have a small space with a decent amount of indoor seating. The tables and seats were kept clean. There's cute decor from the ceiling as well. This is the type of spot where you'd bring your family with younger kids for something sweet, while the adults sit and talk. When we visited, my family and one other family pretty much took up all the tables lol. Service: There was only one worker behind the counter serving and making the drinks and desserts. She doesn't acknowledge anyone. It wasn't too busy, but throughput took a while since she was by herself. There's two kiosk to order from. You don't really interact with the worker until she brings out your order. Desserts & drinks: We ordered a mixture of almost everything. We noticed there were a few menu items that were out of stock. I ordered a mango pamelo sago, my sister ordered a brown sugar boba milk tea, my cousin ordered an americano, and my other cousin ordered a strawberry & cream eggette. I thought the mango pamelo sago was okay; the mango flavor was lacking except for the actual mangos. There was plenty of sago, but I thought this dessert was underwhelming. My sister thought the boba was okay bc it had an interesting texture, and the drink itself was lightly sweet than what she's used to. My cousin thought the coffee was okay. The only thing we all enjoyed was the eggette. It's a bubble waffle with ice cream and fresh fruits, which is pretty difficult to mess up. Pricing: Prices are pretty high for the portions offered. Overall, the desserts were underwhelming and some didn't meet our expectations. The eggettes are most likely the only thing we'll come back for.
