If you're looking for a great value meal in Pacoima, this might not be the best spot for you. The setup is fast food-style: you order at a window, they prompt you for a tip on a tablet, and then drop your food off. The focus seems to be on serving the Spanish-speaking community, as the cashier didn't appear to speak English very well. The place has a casual vibe with a TV showing sports and a pool table, if that's your thing. I've been wanting to try tlacoyo ever since I had it on the streets of Mexico City, but this wasn't the version I had in mind. Their tlacoyo is deep-fried, not made with blue corn tortillas. It's a masa dough shaped like an American football and stuffed with beans. It's listed as an appetizer, and they'll ask if you want to add meat on top. The fried tlacoyo was delicious, and the meat was well-marinated and flavorful. However, I personally prefer the street tacos de asada at Taqueria Mi Ranchito in Sylmar or Tacos Mayos in Van Nuys, where I'm a regular and can get tacos de asada for just $2.50 each on handmade tortillas. At $22 for the tlacoyo appetizer (including the always awkward cringe tip request at the register), the prices felt steep for what you get, especially without table service. I won't be returning, as I feel the value doesn't match the cost. This food experience did not bring me back to streets of Mexico City where I first had my first bite of tlacoyo, so I'll be heading to Komal soon to try their artisanal heirloom blue corn version for just $9.50. read more

I had been waiting for this place to open, its very aesthetically pleasing for the neighborhood I'm glad to see a place that I could feel welcome coming to. The art is a nice touch along with the greenery. The service was good I wish they had more smiles and they welcomed us when we arrived. First impressions are important. The food was really good I had the mole cheese enchiladas they coke with beans and rice, we also had the chilaquiles they were also very good with a spice and nice crunch. To drink I order the banana strawberry smoothie, it was delicious and my bf had the watermelon water which was very sweet and refreshing. Looking forward to coming back and trying the marisco side of the menu! read more

I wish I could leave a review saying how good the food was, but they were closed. Their website indicates that they are closed on Wednesday's. I arrived on a Tuesday, and they were closed.

15.00 dollars for a carne asada torda... really! I mean I don't mind paying this much for a good tasty torta. Not this one. Not only did it take them 30 min to make It they had no costumer. But the salsa if we want to called it had no flavor no salt nothing.it was more Water than anything. The torta well the meat was salty, the bread was saggy, one of the worst torta i tasted. the place was cute i just wish the food was good. read more

Waited 15mins and never got service. I tried asking the young waiter a question and replied with "give me a second" 15 mins later nothing. As I was waiting a homeless came in and took some sodas. I seen other people come in and they left as well since they were taking long to service someone, I understand is a family own business and they have limited employees but they need better management training and customer service skills. Seems like the people there don't care. read more

Service was horrible waited 15 min no acknowledgement. 3 tables including us walked out. Never going there again.

Nice place, great food, they even have a pool table to play with while you wait for your food.

The food was good, the service was bare minimum, and the ambiance was so so...the restaurant itself is decorated really nice and it has potential to be a really good restaurant, it's just that the ladies at the window don't seem to enthusiastic and it was awkwardly quiet. read more

Amazing food the chilaquiles rojos are bomb the liquado de banana y chocolate taste just like moms and I will definitely come again

Great location. Salsa was great. Chips were fresh. Service not so good. They need better administration. Had to keep asking for refill on water. Chips / salsa take a while to come, maybe cause they make them their..weight were the only customers at the restaurant and it took forever. We were there a good 60 minutes from ordering , to getting food, to eating and eating. We had a coctel de camaron and my hubby had camarones a la diabla. Which is made with Chipotle. Not sure if that is hiw they are supposed to be read more
