I don't know why but I thought the birria taco came as a set and was surprised to get one lol shows how much I was paying attention. It was very delicious and wish I ordered more. The mini churro was amazing! All super affordable pricing!

Been to Tigres Fuego a couple dozen times now, and will keep coming back!…read moreAbsolutely deee-licious fish tacos!! I have also tried their carne asada (which is served with the unusual addition of a small amount of pinto beans) and they too are great. Had the Al Pastor, the the turkey carnitas, and the jerk chicken - all top notch. Super friendly service, solid staff working the plancha, and a low-key neighborhood vibe. Make sure to try their home made pineapple agua fresca too. This is the kinda taqueria you want on your radar to try. Thank you for keeping it simple, and doing things right.

Tigres Fuego is sister restaurant to Baran's 2239 and known for their breakfast burritos. I hear…read morethe burritos and tacos on their regular menu are also really good; however, it was the breakfast burritos that popped up on my social media. I ended up getting a chorizo breakfast burrito for $14.50. The burrito is good. The flour tortilla is quality and tastes as if they're made in house. There is a good amount of chorizo and egg; however, for my preferences, it was light on the crispy hash browns and mine was pretty heavy on the melty cheese. Their red salsa is really flavorful, however, and that amplifies the flavors. I definitely would come back if I were in the area, in order to try their tacos, burritos, and ceviches. I hear good things about their fish tacos! Overall, I'm glad that I stopped by when I was in the area.

When the craving hits, it's always tacos!…read more I stopped by Tacos El Goloso on PCH and ordered a mix of street tacos (carnitas and al pastor) along with the tacos dorados de birria. I've been here before, and the birria tacos were exactly what I needed for a late-night craving. Crispy on the outside with a good amount of filling and strong flavor - they really hit the spot. I ended up having four of them. The consomé on the side was really good too - rich and flavorful, almost something I could've just had on its own. The street tacos were solid. The carnitas had that tender, slightly crisp texture, and the al pastor added a bit more seasoning and contrast. Nothing overcomplicated, just straightforward and satisfying. Service was friendly, and the setup is quick and casual. In the South Bay where places tend to close early, it was nice that they were open until around 10pm. Overall, this is a no-frills taco spot where the focus is on the food. Easy choice when you're in the mood for tacos.

I'm Mexican with family from Michoacán, so I don't say this lightly -- this place is legit. You…read morewalk in and the smell alone tells you everything. I got the birria plate (3 tacos with cheese, consomé, chips, salsas, etc.) and it was a full 10/10. Everything was balanced, flavorful, and authentic. Horchata was on point too. My girl got asada tacos -- super clean and really good. Only thing is there's no toppings bar, but they give you everything you need and the portions are dialed in. If I'm ever in the area craving Mexican food, I'm coming straight here -- no question. And they had the basketball game on, perfect. Super fast service by the way!

I made a reservation online before because other reviews recommended it and I'm glad I did. There was a wait when we arrived around 6pm. The staff were very welcoming when we arrived. I ordered a double skinny margarita and it was very good. Maybe one of the best margs I've had in a while. My friend and I split the combination fajitas for two and it didn't disappoint. It comes with chicken, steak and shrimp. There was a ton of flavor. We both got a side of rice and beans which was a bonus. It is a lot of food so you definitely get your bang for your buck. Highly recommend. There is a free parking lot that wraps around the building and there's free street parking. The overall vibe was great and I definitely will be coming back very soon!

We tried the combination appetizer that came with several different tasty options! Definitely recommend getting that if you're with a few people and all want to try several different items.

Everyone loved their meals and I can absolutely understand why:) Great spot all around, highly recommend!!

Small place, but great for a meal and a beer. The staff and the owner were friendly and accomodating. Enjoyed the service. Tried the taco plate, and it was better than average at a nice price. I enjoyed the carne asada more than the chicken (personal preference), nothing wrong with the chicken, but the steak was nicely marinated and tender. My buddy agreed, we will come back.

Me and my good friend came in on a Monday because I wanted some elote! It happened to be happy hour…read moreso why not! The food is so good! The chips and salsa, the elote, the ceviche were spectacular! The salsas are so tasty! The elote hit the spot! And the ceviche was a large portion which was perfect to share! The tacos were very good! One thing I would change is their tortilla, but the carne asada was tender and well flavored! The fish taco could've used some crema. The service here is some of the best I've experienced. As someone in hospitality, Arturo deserves all the flowers! So kind and friendly! On point! The space has a nice outdoor patio that has covering for shade. We will definitely come back!

After checking out local reviews we decided to have dinner at Maderos. At first we were confused…read morebecause the sign at the foor said they were closed but when we saw a couple go Inside , we realized they were open. Service was very friendly and attentive and we were promptly seated and served fresh chips along with a trio of salsas which were fresh and had the perfect levels of spice. My son had the kids enchilada and enjoyed his meal. I ordered 3 tacos from the à la carte menu. The chicken was fine but the fish and shrimp were undercooked and I couldn't eat them, which is why I deducted the one star. The other deduction was for the underwhelming flavors in the meals themselves. Usually when a Mexican restaurant had amazing salsa, the same vibe carries through with the entrees , but unfortunately it wasn't my experience. I would probably try once more and edit my review based on a second experience.

Dined at Vida last night on a mother daughter date night and had a pretty good night, overall…read more Solid, 4.5 stars. Loved their fresh fried chips served with salsa upon seating. We ordered a side of guacamole, which my daughter loved. Her and I shared a three taco plate with rice and beans. We had the fried cod, asada and carnitas. I'll be right there. The tacos were definitely sizable and we weren't able to finish our share plate. Good flavor loved the freshly fried fish steak crispy even with a huge mound of guacamole on top. The Carnitas had a cinnamon flavor which I've never had anywhere else before, but I surprisingly liked it. Must try our Max's Margs. And my daughter said the best Shirley Temple's she's ever had. We came right at dinner time so they were very busy. We had to wait for our food, but it is what you would expect at a dinner time rush. The staff was very friendly and Dylan was on top of it! He continually checked in on us to make sure we were doing OK and took great care of us! Great little restaurant at the Riv. Plenty of bike parking and great indoor and outdoor seating will definitely be a return customer.

Stopped by for lunch today and had a great time!…read more Vida is located in the Riviera Village area of Redondo. There's street parking everywhere, though you may need to hunt for it a bit during rush hours. Vida has both indoor and outdoor seating, I personally would recommend the outdoor area with the sunny weather we've been having, as the indoor area doesn't really have AC from what I could tell. Regardless, the place has a great vibe. Service was awesome, our server was prompt and checked up on us throughout the meal, and everything came very quick. On the food front, their chips and salsa are great, and I'm a fan of their guacamole. I got the 2 taco lunch special with an asada, a cod fish taco, and a side Caesar (you can also do rice and beans if you want instead). The fish taco was excellent, and the carne asada was pretty good (it was a bit on the dry side because of how crispy the meat was, but it was still tasty). The salad was also good too, though slightly overdressed. Overall, this is a great spot for lunch or an early dinner, and I absolutely recommend checking it out. I'm definitely going to come back if I'm in the area.
