Since the last time I visited, they added more seating both on the inside and the outside with a back bar. We ordered the same things as last time, a burrtion,chicken quesadilla and a chivichinga. I loved the burrito and the quesedilla wtih the homemade tortillas and grilled chicken. Everyone seemed nice and the prices seemed reasonable. read more

Had a great meal at Sonoratown! We ordered the pollo and asada tacos, chips and guacamole, and two aguas frescas (mango-orange and hibiscus). Everything was absolutely delicious. The tacos were packed with flavor, but the standout for me was the green salsa on the side, it was so good with the tacos and perfect for dipping the chips. The guacamole was fresh, and both aguas frescas were refreshing and complemented the meal perfectly. The restaurant offers open seating both indoors and outdoors, creating a relaxed and casual atmosphere. You place your order at the counter, and the staff brings the food out to your table. The service was friendly and efficient, and the whole experience was enjoyable from start to finish. Looking forward to coming back and trying more of the menu! read more

Best tacos in west LA. The vibes are great and the prices are incredible for incredible food. The tacos options are pollo, asada, and chorizo. The burritos are also worth checking out as well. The staff is friendly and down to earth. They keep their suggestions honest and very helpful. read more

Damn this spot was awesome! First time visiting and already craving it. The flavors felt super authentic to Mexico. Super fresh, great spice, and awesome flavors. Got the asada taco, chile poblano taco and the beef chivichanga. The pinto beans in the chile poblano taco were so good! Good selection for beer. Some indoor bar seating and a lot of outdoor seating. Brought our baby too which was easily accessible! The staff were super friendly. We live in San Diego and have awesome Mexican food but I will definitely be thinking of this spot for a while! read more

Wowowow Sonoratown wins in top homemade flour tortillas and spicy salsa. Had 3 tacos - one steak and two chicken - the simplified tacos with the most amazing tortilla, juicy protein, cabbage, and red salsa hit the spot. Was able to devour 3 tacos within 6 mins and was ready for more but decided to hold off. Beware, the red salsa is spicy!! Can easily say these are some of the better tacos around town. Appears others feel the same as the line was snaking through the restaurant around 8p on Friday night. Their burrito and quesadilla options look delicious too. Cute little bar seating spread throughout the restaurant which makes it easy to eat the tacos fresh and hot. Prices are all reasonable and tons of options for all dietary preferences. Wish I could take some plain tortillas to go! read more

Sonoratown - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I love great food in a low key environment, and that is exactly what this is. In today's world, where everything is insanely priced, this is a breath of fresh air. The tacos and burritos are simply awesome. Fun atmosphere inside with quick and friendly service is such a win. Bonus on the day we were there: there were some free tortillas by the register. And parking is super easy (and free) right in front. We can't wait to go back again to try a few more things! read more

Finally tried after hearing all the hype, but it's not my favorite in LA. The chivichanga was actually so good, but the tacos were just OK to me. Plus the salsa burned my face off, cuidado! read more

Love this spot! Consistently good food and nice place to have a quick beer and burrito. Staff is always friendly and efficient, has parking and realistic prices. One of my staple spots for a quick delicious bite! read more

This is my favorite place to get burritos lately! I always order the asada burrito with chips and green salsa. Their salsas are delicious and not too spicy. The service is always great. Everyone is kind and food comes out fast. There's a small parking lot and I've never had to wait long to park. read more

Sonoratown is one of my go-to spots when I want something reliably delicious without overthinking it. I almost always get the chicken burrito, which really never misses. The salsas are great, but fair warning: the red one is seriously hot. I usually order pickup, and it is super convenient, but I also like grabbing a table on the outside patio when the weather is nice. I used to get a Topo Chico with my meal, and now it is Mineragua, which is still great. Simple, satisfying, and always hits the spot. read more

Wow are these tortillas amazing!! Now the freshness goes unmatched. I had the burrito de asada 2.0 and the meat quality was delicious. The burrito was well balanced with all flavors the spice on the red sauce was perfect. I would mix the red and the green for a balance but if you want pure spice opt into only the red. The chorizo reminded me of the way it's served on dishes in Mexico. The little red plates were there touch of detail it needed to take you to a taqueria in Mexico. Down to the amazing flavor. I wasn't a huge fan of the cabbage in my taco I would definitely skip the cabbage next time as it was overpowering. The interior decor was so so detailed I loved seeing all the bits of Sonora. The Jamaica (hibiscus) was amazing not too sweet which is often an issue I run into when ordering an agua fresca. read more

Sonoratown - Burrito 2.0 and taco chorizo - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

The tortillas are the thing. Wow, so stoked I was finally able to get it. Perfectly thin, amazing texture and taste. Caramelo, the big taco with asada was heavenly. Incredible with the tender flavorful beef, beans, cheese and excellent salsa. The chorizo taco and bean burrito really good also. There was a bit of a line at lunch but it moved quickly. Nice service in this cool little shop. I'm a fan and understand why these tortillas are so celebrated in LA. read more

I was so excited to try Sonoratown, but I was really disappointed. Their flour tortillas contain pork lard, which makes them impossible for vegetarians or anyone who does not eat pork to enjoy. Since the tortillas are such a central part of the meal, it really limited what I could eat and made the experience frustrating. I was hoping to enjoy one of their signature burritos or tacos, but that was not an option for me, which was a major letdown given all the hype. My husband tried the Burrito 2.0 with chicken and thought it was good, but it did not quite live up to the rave reviews we had heard. He is still curious to come back and try it with the costilla grilled steak to see if that makes a difference. Overall, the flavors are decent, but the pork lard in the tortillas makes it hard for some people to fully enjoy, and the experience fell short of our expectations. I was really hoping for a meal that would match the buzz, but unfortunately it did not. read more

Sonoratown - Tacos! - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

The best part about this place that they make it with no seed oils! I get the Lorenzo taco because it is made of corn instead of a wheat flour and that's just my preference! I ordered the cabeza beef meat because it has a lot of collagen kinda gelatinous and fats! The salsa is really good on it! When I'm doing any kind of dieting I do opt to get no cheese The service here is fast and good, and the kitchen's get orders out pretty fast as well! They are always quick to clean up the areas so you always have a nice clean area to dine at! I asked if they sell these corn tortillas since they use no seed oils to make them and they do! So I bought a pack of 12 handmade ones from them for six dollars! :) I heard that they make everything fresh here and they get their ingredients from Sonora in Mexico! They give you plenty of salsa on the side as well read more

A friend had recommended this spot for tacos. Can't go to Cali, without going somewhere for tacos! There was both outdoor and indoor seating. The door to the right is where they take orders. They also sell merch and stickers too if you're into that! The staff is hella chill and friendly. I had ordered the Costilla aka carne asada, pollo aka chicken and cabeza aka braised beef head that comes with grilled green onion and of course cut radishes. The interesting thing about their tortillas is that it's made with pork lard, they do have signage posted too. The texture is very chewy for being a tortillas. They don't double up the tortillas as other tacos spots do. Overall some decent tacos, tbh not sure if it was an off day, but the tacos i got were a tad on the salty side, but still decent with that being said.. I did order a large horchata which was friggin huge. The taste was a bit different and I tasted like coconut something in the drink. Not bad, but was looking forward to an OG horchata. read more

Did I just find my favorite taco place in LA?! I had recently returned to LA after moving away for several years. Decided to stop by Sonoratown after hearing about it on social media and at the recommendation of my local friends. It 100% lived up to the hype and high praise! Their tortilla is so good that it made all of our tacos/burritos delicious. I love how it was so soft and light, but still had a nice chew. The cabeza was my favorite because of the super tender beef and how it was so simple and straightforward with the beef flavors!! The chorizo was so crunchy and also retained so much flavor with the salsa. The pollo taco was also good, but it was my least favorite out of all things I tried. The costilla burrito packed lots of flavors, guac, and beans; I do wish it had more cheese but my partner felt like the ratio of ingredients was well balanced. The horchata with coconut milk was smooth and creamy, which helped temporize the spiciness. We were so tempted to get more tacos but didn't want to get in line anymore. Food came out at a reasonable time and pipping hot. Parking available out front. Definitely want to come back the next time I visit LA! read more

Really solid carne asada burrito. I get it to go often and it always hits the spot. The tortilla is thick and super fresh and the burrito is simple with no rice.The steak is really flavorful and the burrito feels fillling without being too heavy. read more

Sonoratown is one of those spots that makes me so thankful I live in Los Angeles. This location is a beacon in mid-city which is otherwise a bit of a food desert. It's also much larger than their downtown spot with a parking lot and plenty of seating. I love their vegetarian Lorenza and the bean and cheese burrito. Quite filling and probably one of the only meals in LA that can clock you under $10 (unless you get the horchata, which you must of course). They could easily charge double, but they don't which I'm assuming comes down to amazing owners. Their food is pretty spicy so beware with the salsas - I love it, but a less adventurous eater might get surprised. Even more motivation to get horchata!! Thank you Sonoratown!!! read more

Sonoratown - Vegetarian lorenza and a bean & cheese burrito - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Yo!!! In one word, FIRE! I work down the street and seen this spot on my way home a few times. Decided to finally stop in for Lunch yesterday. Got the Asada burrito and damn, one of the best tasting burritos I have had in a long ass time. The Meat tastes like the meat you would cook on a charcoal BBQ. That mixed with the perfect portion of everything else, so good. I definitely recommend this place and will be back. read more

I didn't think it was possible to be addicted to a restaurant -- but this place proved me wrong. The flavors are incredibly unique and unlike anything you'll find at other taquerias. The difference? They cook with mesquite, which gives everything that unforgettable smoky depth. You can truly taste the quality of the ingredients and the care they put into every dish. We've brought multiple friends from out of town here, and every single one has loved it. We highly recommend the chicken chivichangas (even my one-year-old devours them!), the simple yet comforting bean and cheese burritos, and the caramelos -- massive tacos served with their chile de árbol salsa that has the perfect level of heat. And of course, you can't go wrong with any of their burritos. We are really going to miss this place when we leave LA. read more

Sonora never misses! One of my favorite taco spots in DTLA and now they've blessed DTLB with a location too. The tacos are consistently on point: chicken, beef intestine, or steak, all seasoned with bold flavor and paired with fresh, spicy salsas. A cold Modelo or Pacifico on the side makes it even better. The staff here is cool and welcoming, which always adds to the vibe. I've literally eaten here almost every day at one point because it's that addictive. Highly recommend if you're craving tacos or a burrito that actually delivers. Stop reading and just order, this is hands down one of the best spots right now. read more

Absolutely obsessed with this place! I have to make a pit stop every time I'm back in LA because of how delicious these burritos are! Parking may be challenging but I've gotten lucky every time. Super cute spot, vibey. Love all the frames and art on the walls, along with merch that makes this place fun and inviting. There's an outdoor patio with some tables for your furry friends. It's also nice out because it can get a bit loud inside with the music. But not unbearable. I got the burrito 2.0 with steak and... AMAZING! Their homemade tortillas are just so delicious. The tortilla is definitely the star of the show. The burrito was very juicy, nicely flavored, and loved the portion. That red salsa was clutch. Definitely the MVP if you like a spicy kick! It also creeps up on you. And the green onion they give you while dining in, love! Unfortunately they don't give you the green onions when you're only picking up. I'm already craving their food just typing up this review! Highly recommend this place! read more

Sonoratown - Mexican Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Chivichanga is my favorite. Had both beef and chicken but my favorite is chicken. Taco, quesadilla is good as well. Lorenza and caramelo were good as well. 3 visits in total. The first 2 visits were awesome. Somehow, the 3rd visit, lacked that umph. Chivichanga was not spot on. I can only imagine, it's a different worker who prepared it. Parking is a hassle. But they have a nice outdoor area where you came eat and the grilled green onions that comes with the meal is a plus. I never knew grilled green onion was so delicious with tacos. read more

This is the best Mexican food I've ever had in my life, and I grew up eating a ton of Mexican food in San Diego. I have never paid any attention to the tortilla, but this tortilla was so good, it made me think about life differently. It was honestly as good as the meat, and the meat was also cooked to perfection. I got 2 costilla tacos and 1 cabeza. The costilla was my favorite and the cabeza was also good, but more on the rich side. The salsas were also so tasty and the grilled green onion on the top was a nice touch. I have nothing bad to say about this place and will probably come here every time I'm in LA in the future. read more

I wanted to try Sonoratown's fresh handmade tortillas. So I ordered a cabeza burrito 2.0. The flavors were solid. Cabeza was tender, tortilla was chewy and grilled, beans and Monterey Jack was blended together well. Overall a solid burrito. Not big enough to fill me but it was a good tasting burrito. Service was fast and friendly. There is plenty of counter seating inside but they play the music really loud. Outside there are a few tables available and it's quieter. They have a small parking lot that is shared with 7-11 and a few other stores. read more

Honestly the best Mexican food I've ever had. Got the burrito and taco below, love the charred green onions as well, if you eat it with the burrito it tastes amazing. Service was great, cashier was patient and friendly with our order. It's actually a big space with lots of seats to dine in. They don't have a super big menu but they have the classic options such as burritos, tacos etc. The deco inside is also super cute. There's also seats outside as well. Overall amazing food and service! read more

I was looking forward to try this place after seeing it raved about all over social media but the food is bland and expensive. Want salsa on the side? Extra charge. Want a tiny grilled onion on the side? Extra charge. I got an asada burrito 2.0 and added the poblano pepper; underwhelmed is an understatement...Picture a bean and cheese burrito with a hint of meat. Adding extra meat for an additional charge is an option but I wouldn't be surprised if they skimp that extra portion too. Not worth the drive or the money and will NOT come back. read more

Sonoratown, my love. Why did it take this long for me to discover how special and authentic you are? Fear not, those days are over. Wow, I finally had Sonoratown for the first time like a week ago and I am already thinking about my third trip here. The costilla steak tacos were bomb, but the star of the show for me was the chicken chivichangas!!! I was used to the deep-fried burrito that most identified with the name "chimichanga" but Sonoratown does it different and WAY BETTER MIGHT I ADD. It's grilled and the flavors are infused and melted together like the best creation God/Buddha/Allah has ever created. Am I being dramatic? Yeah, and?! A worthy mention is their red salsa - very nice flavor and with a kick! Truly can't wait to try other things on the menu, but so far you got a returning customer that will always be loyal to you. See ya soon! (This weekend?) read more

Amazing burritos/food/drinks! All fresh made flour tortillas. Fast service too. Inside & outside tables for convenience.

I can't believe I haven't reviewed Sonoratown after eating here so many times. My husband and I like their menu. It has just the right amount of variety to find something good. I usually get the costilla. I tried the chorizo, and I just didn't love it as much as the flavor of the grilled steak. Their tortillas are delicious. The salsa can taste very spicy when they add a more generous portion. Keep that in mind if you need to modify it if you prefer milder flavors. The Taco (3.5 stars) is a good starting point, but I recommend the Carmelo (4 stars) and Lorenza (4 stars). The Carmelo is bigger than the taco with addition of the cheese, beans, and cabbage. I like the crunch of the corn tortilla in the Lorenza. I enjoyed the Burrito 2.0 (5 stars) that was filled with steak, beans, cheese, salsa, and guacamole. They mentioned their most popular item was the Chivichanga (5 stars), and it has become my favorite. I alternate between the shredded beef and chicken. It includes a saucy filling. It is also good reheated if you have leftovers or order an extra one. The Horchata (5 stars) was refreshing and one of the best I've had. The service (5 stars) was consistently great. They were very nice, and they quickly prepared our takeout orders. They also made great menu recommendations. It's one of my favorite spots that I like to stop by when I'm in the area. read more

The tacos are fantastic! Their homemade tortillas are outstanding, I love the fresh, roasted veggies and salsa. We've tried a variety of their tacos, as well as burritos, and they are all fantastic. I suggest adding a grilled poblano, great options for vegetarians here as well! Highly recommended if you are looking for flavorful and authentic Mexican food! Service is fantastic, and the food was made to order quickly. Prices and portions are very fair. read more

Came to the area just for the flour tortilla and meats! It's uniquely thinner than the usual ones yet don't fall apart and have a bit of perfect chew texture to it. We tried the asada (very good with a grilled flavor to it), cabeza (very tender), tripa (crispy deep fried), and chicken (also has good flavor). The chips were amazing and crisp! All the salas are good! Had tacos, and quesadilla (on taco size tortillas so you'll want to order more than 1). Hole in the wall. Metered street parking or paid lots. Service was kind. Tables inside and about 3-4 outside on the sidewalk. read more

Love the setup and ambiance at this Mid-City location. Was a little disappointed with the pollo and asada tacos. Meat was a bit tough. Too many taco choices in LA. read more

Yeah this place is as legit as it gets! Absolute flavor in every single bite! Shoutout to Postmates for delivering to me as well! Although I didn't get to experience the actual establishment, I am almost 100% sure the vibes are epic in house. Everything was fire! Ordered the grilled steak burrito 2.0 with the famous poblano. So good and so much flavor! You know I needed to add some heat so we got that chiltepin x2! So much essence in each bite. The mesquite grilled meat, the exquisite taste of the poblano, fresh beans, and house made tortilla grilled to perfection. True work of art. Then we got the caramelo, reminded me of the burrito except with cabbage with their grilled tortilla. It was phenomenal! And last the chivichanga with shredded chicken! I could smash 5 of those back to back. No wonder the reviews are all top tier, these guys don't take any short cuts in flavor and quality. Next time I'm going in to sit down with the family! What a treat! read more

Their homemade tortillas were tasty and the highlight of the restaurant. The proteins were mediocre. The carne asada didn't have any grill flavor and or much flavor at all. Their tripe was so fried it was basically a hard chip and the chorizo was dry. Employees taking orders were extremely unfriendly. Good tortillas. Bad rest of the experience. read more

Chivichanga was delicious only wish it was bigger lol cute spot to get some great food

Amazing Mexican food, great authentic flavor and taste. I learned of Sonoratown after a friend brought it for a potluck and I was smitten ever since. The plain bean and cheese burrito is so good on its own, as are the chimichangas (beef was great) and the burritos. The hottest sauce has a wonderful kick to it and makes for a near perfect, if not perfect dining experience. Ordering pickup through Uber Eats was easy and there is a designated section inside to go. Pickup is quick and easy. Already craving and looking forward to the next visit. read more
