    Chaufas
    Terry P.

    Skip it! When I came in, I was greeted. Then I was looking at the menu to figure out what I wanted, but I came here knowing that I wanted Peruvian food. If you eat Peruvian, you already know what you must have, and the must-have is always the Chaufa de Pollo, so for sure I ordered that. Then I ordered the two things that are standing out on the menu, huge pictures, the surf and turf burrito and the fish taco. Horrible food, way too salty, way too wet for chaufa. It was so bad that i couldn't eat it, thinking I might be able to save it, took it home and used an extra 100% rice to mix it in, still was too salty! And wet?! So much liquid leaked from it too, at least a cup of "sauce." The fish taco was ok, how can you go wrong? Deep fried fish and hand-made tortilla. But for the price? C'mon, I expected better. The burrito was not good and not worth that price too! Who is cooking back there? Horrible food!!!! Don't go here unless you want to waste money on bad food.

    Lomo Saltado
    Viviana M.

    I went with my husband on a Saturday for lunch, and we both ordered the lomo saltado. The food was amazing--so tasty, and the meat was juicy and tender. The sauce they use for the meat was outstanding. The service is nice; you order at the counter and then find a table, which was pretty easy. I'll definitely go back. We parked in front of the restaurant, and it was pretty easy to find a spot.

    This spot has the crunchiest crispiest tacos for those who prefer a hard shell! But don't sleep on their queso birria tacos either. greatly seasoned, tender and juicy! they have a handful selection of sodas and beers. We also ordered their chili relleno burrito - I wasn't very fond of it. wayyy too much rice the relleno got lost in it and barely any cheese. it was a pretty big size but sometimes.... less is just more.

    Came here for the first time and we'll definitely return! Not only do they offer Mexican food but also Peruvian! We had to try their saltados. My fiancé got the surf and turf Saltado and i ordered the chicken saltado. It was delicious! Great flavor and they give great portions! The green sauce always add some spice. Bummed they don't give bread here like other Peruvians spots do but other than that 10/10 It got busy as we were leaving so we came at a great time. Our friends ordered some tacos and their favorite was the mole taco! We'll rerun because i want to try the California burrito next.

    Asada Tacos
    Siri H.

    A coworker recommended this spot and today finally was my chance to swing by. I noticed I could order ahead online, but inside, they had an order kiosk that made it really easy! I kept it simple and got 2 asada tacos. So much of the menu looked SO good, but I was by myself (no one to split things with) and not terribly hungry. NEXT TIME! The tacos were great! The handmade tortillas really stood out and I was excited to try them. The salsa had great spice and flavor. Overall, I can't wait to go back and try some of their other menu items. Inside, it is small, but plenty of seating. My food was served on a paper plate, but that was just fine. This is not fine dining, but that's not what I'd want from a great taco or burrito spot! They have a lot of drink options as well, from cans of Diet Coke (YAY) to jarritos! And even some bottled beer to go. I'll be back!

    The "Taco Tuesday" special they did not honor on Tuesday.
    David P.

    Very disappointing. I stopped by for "Taco Tuesday" but they did not honor the specials listed on their own website. She said "he didn't put it in the computer. REALLY? Not worth fighting over, so ordered 2 tacos at full price. The hard shells were overcooked and brown. The ingredients were just "okay" Not going back

    Shrimp Pablito's Torta
    Nathalie R.

    Their torta bread has me in a chokehold! I don't know much about the service since I usually do takeout. They do take a while to get your food out though, so order ahead if possible. The place is small and clean. Parking is in the small lot next to the shop or plenty of street parking.

    Taco (1)
    Jacob C.

    Great service, prompt order preparation, friendly employees, and delectably unique tacos. Taco Tuesday features $1 tacos with handmade tortillas.

    Fish + shrimp tacos
    Bridget D.

    Went here after a friend recommended it and she was right. I got the fish and shrimp tacos and they were great. The churros were fantastic. I'll definitely come back. The menu is a bit difficult to read and understand, especially if you're not familiar with Peruvian food. It may be helpful to try to look at it ahead of time. Also, you order at a kiosk. So while the staff seemed friendly, they weren't really present when ordering to offer assistance / answer questions.

    Burrito chili relleno
    Dana T.

    I love their birria sampler, the only thing that sucks is it doesn't come with the consume that is a separate purchase, the chili relleno bomb too! Tres leches a must !!

    Does this location have alcohol?

    Yes

    Is this location open for dine-in? Will they accommodate a party of 10?

    Yes they do have dine-in and the largest party i’ve seen enter the dining area was a party of 6 but i’m sure they’d take 10 as well, of course it’ll take a bit longer.

    Are your tortillas FRESHLY MADE ON SITE like so many other places in LA or are they premade and delivered? Thank you.

    Yes they do make their tortillas fresh!

    I want to ship your green crack sauce to a friend in NY, does it need to be refrigerated?

    It's basically the same as Piu Piu in Sunnyside Queens where we used to live. Your friend can go there!

    What days do they have the menudo?

    Saturday and Sunday

    Is the pop-up taco stand still happening? We've driven by a bunch of times and it's never there.

    Due to city issues we had to move the stand. The closest is 5600 Vineland ave , noho or 801 s victory Blvd Burbank

    It looks like everything has soy sauce in it. Are there gluten free options?

    Yes they have gluten free options

    Is there gluten free options?

    Yes. My daughter is allergic to wheat (anaphylactic) and she enjoyed a full meal without any issues.

    Hi, looking at the menu, you guys don't have the tacos served at the Yelp Event?

    Hi. Those are at PABLITO’s tacos in our parking lot. All the tacos at event are available there

    Hi There, I'm craving Pablitos soooooo bad. When will the truck be in the Los Angeles area? I need to know ASAP. Thanks

    There’s no more truck. Only our brick and mortar. Come visit us!

    Wife and I try to get here, now and then, but it's been a long time since we moved from Glendale to…read moreCulver City.. We finally got there, today, 4pm (on a Saturday) and the food and the staff were excellent. We ordered the Queso fundido for appetizer and as long as you're in the mood for bubbly cheese and chorizo, this is great with chips, but they also give you a choice of flour or corn tortillas with it, as well. For main, we tried the Molcajete, which we haven't had, anywhere, since we lived down in O.C. It turned out to be better than what we had in O.C., from the sauce to the meats and cheese to the peppers. Also, their chicken tortilla soup was good (as a side with the Molcajete) with lots of veggies in it. The staff were wonderful, though.. From the first waiter who allowed us to change from a table to a booth to our waiter, Jose, who was friendly and looked after us (also quick on getting back to us, every time). And a special thanks to Yennie (possibly, spelled with a J', if so, "lo siento") who also helped us and even when *someone* (me) had a party foul with a margarita, she quickly helped out and was super nice about it. After a trip to the dentist (for a crown replacement) and a long week, everyone at Don Cuco's allowed us to relax and the food (and margaritas ;-) ) made it perfect.

    Gorgeous place, they gave us prime seating right in front of the fountain on my date night. Our…read morewaiter was super attentive and quick to get us what we needed. Chips were warm and hot out of the fryer. Salsa is on hot side, not mild. Both free refill and we had to stop ourselves after refill because we haven't gotten to the food yet. Ok for the food - Meatballs in soup had lots of cumin, I liked it but if you hate cumin then skip it. - Strong margarita drink that my gf got drunk off of one lol they sure load it up - Zarapes, one chicken one beef. beef was really good. - Lobster Enchiladas: ok i have a lot to say about this one, it was different, but not in a bad way. The garlic rice and black bean side was really yummy, better than the sides on the zarapes. I ordered it because i needed something different and yes it was. Now there is one problem with this dish and its that they don't use real lobster, its a imitation crab/lobster meat like product shaped differently and made from fish and nowhere on the menu says that which is not ethical business practice. That said it didn't taste bad but its not real. Overall I would comeback, overall the food was good but not groundbreaking. The Mixed alcohol drinks is definitely get your moneys worth and is better than the other place across the street. Steak is good for the fajita like dishes, Seafood dish tastes good but not real lobster chunks, i would probably try the regular fish next time.

A fun fact, they have a large table that has been in the family for decades. They offer both inside and patio seating. That means your dog is welcome. The mole is outstanding. They have 4 kinds to choose from. It is rich, complex, and full of authentic flavor. The chicken tacos were fresh, perfectly seasoned, and absolutely delicious. They are plastered on top of hand made tortillas with a pico de gallo. Order the flight of mole and pour it on top. The location is great and makes for a fun dining experience, especially if you're looking for something a little different from the usual Mexican restaurant. Their tequilla bar makes for a fun experience. The service was friendly, attentive, and welcoming throughout our visit. However service is hit or miss. Sometimes only one person is serving the inside section. The only downside is the parking situation, which can be a bit challenging. We usually park across the street and walk over. Highly recommend for anyone craving excellent mole, tasty tacos, and great margaritas! You can also check out the stables next door.

    Beyond ignored and completely unwelcome. This place could have been the hubby and I spot. Since…read moreit's so close to home. But unfortunately, they were really unfriendly & understaffed and the waiter/bartender was extremely bothered we were there and seemed very overwhelmed. I don't know who Celia is but maybe get more staff in the kitchen and a hostess and more waitress/waiters. We went in Saturday Valentines night dinner right before 6pm and found parking to be easy and should have taken that as a sign but figured we get better service. NOPE! The parking not is just really small and the people sitting had ordered and committed to staying I guess. Keep reading and you'll get my drift! Honestly, We assumed it would be a great night romantic dinner. Then, we walked in and felt so neglected. No hostess to greet or seat you. The bus man or waiter said wait here and cleaned a table when 3 were available. It looks like the three employees were doing everything and at the same time doing nothing! It was comical at first. He sat us finally and then we ordered. Appetizers and a Molcajete and two nonalcoholic drinks. By now 32mins passed. No chips & salsa. No nothing... we should have just left. But we were lazy to leave elsewhere with no reservations on Valentine day. He brought me a drink from the bar like if I ordered it, I hate to say he might have memory issues. Then he noticed we still don't have our drinks and he had to ask again what I ordered. Now 50mins passed and at another 15 mins the main course came before the appetizers were served so I cancelled it. It just seems like they didn't care for anyone else but the people at the bar. Ppl were just walking in and ended up leaving or seating themselves. Majority left and they didn't even notice! Not welcoming at all and as for the food. I feel like everything was previously frozen as the chicken and meat was very chewy-leather like. The cheese was cold. And just grateful that we didn't get sick because it wasn't cooked all the way. When I go into a restaurant, I expect good service and quality food. I unfortunately won't be returning. Such a shame because this place has western character straight out of a saloon and can't speak for the drinks as we didn't even eat our entire meal and wanted to get the hell out. Do better because this could be a cute hangout spot!
