We saw a lot of reviews praising their fish tacos, so we decided to come on Taco Tuesday after seeing a sign advertising 2-for-1 fish tacos, though we ended up paying full price, so I'm honestly not sure how the promotion works based on the sign out front. Their English is fairly limited, so be prepared for a bit of a language barrier. After ordering, we ended up getting 4 fish tacos and a wet asada burrito with green sauce. Here are my thoughts: Fish Taco - Delicious. The fish is fried and comes fully dressed with sauce. We opted for the handmade tortillas, which were fresh and absolutely bomb. The handmade tortillas were an extra $4 each, which I didn't fully realize at the time since the menu was in Spanish, oops. Still very good. (4.5/5) Wet Asada Burrito - Tasty and solid. The burrito itself was good, and I especially enjoyed the rice. Everything tasted great with the salsa smothered on top. Definitely a satisfying dish. (4/5) I'd definitely come back now that I have a better understanding of their menu (I was pretty lost not speaking Spanish). We did have to pay cash since they said their card machine was down. Overall, a pretty good experience. Parking: They have a parking lot in the back. read more

Found this lowkey dank joint that is hidden in El Monte-- I enjoyed the items we ordered, that is, the wet burrito and fish tacos. I love how they don't skimped on the sauce, and take the time to make the meal look presentable. I know my partner enjoyed the seafood tacos because he returned the following week for their shrimp tacos. Thank you for accommodating us. We will be back! read more

Ambiance: 4/5 This place is a little hole in the wall. A hidden gem in El Monte that is pretty ghetto from outside. The inside is hot as heck because their AC isn't working, but they have a nice outdoor seating area. Food: 5/5 On Tuesdays and Thursdays they have a fish taco deal. They use to be two fish tacos for $1.50 but now it's $2.50 (don't let the sign outside mislead you, it is outdated). The fish tacos were light and a bed of cabbage and some cream sauce on two flour tortillas. It's a great deal for $1.25 a taco. Service: 5/5 I believe this place is family owned. The family working the counter is super sweet. The fish were battered and fried to order. It all came out fairly quickly. Note: They do accept credit card but it's a 4% charge. I suggest bringing cash. read more

I was at work the other day, hadn't packed a lunch and was tired of the usual stuff I get in the area. I text my wife asking what for a recommendation and she told me about Taco Burger Place. She said it's local, has good reviews, and something different than what I would normally get at lunch. I decided to give it a shot. It's very hole-in-the-wall, so I know it would be great. I ordered five tacos (two fish, two al pastor and a carne asada). It was about 20 minutes before they were ready but I didn't mind because they were being made fresh. Got back to work and devoured them. In order, my preference was the fish tacos, then the al pastor and then the asada - all really good, though. I will be back at some point and try some of the other items on their menu (especially looking forward to the breakfast burrito). Come check them out - the lady behind the counter was also super kind. read more

If you're looking for yummy authentic Mexican food this is the spot! Definitely treasured by the locals, our favorites are the fish tacos and chilaquiles Today my daughter got taquitos (rolled up with shredded beef) and they were delicious! The meat was soft almost like birria I ordered green chilaquiles which were spicy and didn't disappoint. Hubby got the green wet burrito and also super fire! Some fatty pieces of meat in the burrito but still yummy. read more

Used to come here maybe 10 years ago and came like everyone before, 2x1.00 fish tacos. Remember it as a delicious taco that was extremely reasonable. Went to try recently after ten years and they changed their name but it's still the same cook and people. Theu did clean up the inside and made it a little brighter, a little cleaner but same size. Had a shrimp, fish, cabeza and al pastor taco along with a burger and fries. Had the tacos with handmade tortillas but those come at an extra charge per taco. Shrimp and fish were just like back then, pretty good and a solid meal. The sauce is a little mayo-y but you can actually see the fish inside is fresh and not a old frozen patty. The cabeza was decent but the pastor was a definite miss. No pastor flavor at all. Would def come and get the fish and shrimp tacos again. 3.8/5. The burger and fries were a little salty and patty is a small frozen patty but it isn't bad. 3.5/5. read more

This place is great for a quick taco pick up. Forget the glitz and glamour of nicer looking spots, this is a real family operation. The taste of the tacos are a solid seven. And for the price you cannot beat it. There are a few things displays could do better like the seasoning, but it's charm is on being a "whole-in-the-wall". I suggest to come in on a taco Tuesday and get something to hold you over for dinner. You won't be able to beat this deal. read more

Taco Burger Place - 2 fish tacos, 1 chicken and 1 Asada - Seafood Near Me - El Monte, California

Freaking great, Tuesday evening, right before they closed, swallowed my fish tacos and never felt better. Delicious.

Drove past this place all the time and was finally lured in by the 2 for 1 fish taco banner. Parking is a shared lot in the back. It's not that big, but it didn't seem crowded. Service is good. Basic Spanish skills is helpful, but they're good with English. It's not a big deal in person, but they prefer phone orders and it's just a tiny bit more complicated. The ladies there were very nice though. Gave me excessive extras when I asked (salsas and plates). Originally, I stopped by for my own lunch. I got home and ended up sharing them. Next thing I know, the family decided they wanted them for dinner as well. I ended up putting in a phone order for about 30 tacos later that day. I was quoted 30 min, but it was probably closer to 40. For the sale price, I really can't find anything to complain about. At $.75 a taco, the small piece of fish is understandable. I like how crunchy the fish is, even if a lot of it is from the batter. I think my 30 taco order overwhelmed them because they started getting skimpy on the sauce and cabbage for some tacos. Overall, the food was still good. I wouldn't pay full price for the fish tacos though, so catch me here only on Tuesdays and Thursdays. read more

We were able to place our order in person then eat outside where they have about 3 tables. It's a great spot to stop during a San Gabriel River bike ride from Encanto Park! We got 3 Carne asada tacos and 3 chicken tacos. All of them were on point and perfectly seasoned, with lime wedges, green salsa, and red salsa. Both salsas were delicious as well. The tortillas were super tasty and fresh too! read more

There's no place you'd rather be on a "Taco Tuesday" or "Taco Thursday" than Taco N Tento. The specials they run on those days are 2 fish tacos for $1.50. The best part? The tacos are actually really, REALLY good. They are in the true style of Baja California, Ensenada - Mexico as you can get this side of the border. No joke. The tacos are a little pricer on "no meat Fridays" (all you Catholics out there know what I'm talking about), but they are still good, and a decent value at that. My niece loves the shrimp cocktail here and can put away the whole thing by herself. They serve fries here, made to order, for those picky little children who won't eat seafood yet (ahem, my five year old). Full disclosure: I've been coming here since I was about five years old, and this place brings back fond memories of childhood, grubbing with the family. What I'm saying is, I'm super partial to this place, as THE place to come to get your fish taco eating done. read more

Burritos were mid (the rice was good btw), but nothing compares the tacos from taco llama. #tacollama #bestmexicanresturant

Pros: This place is great. They have nice people working there, food that taste great and will fill you up, and very affordable for anyone. I will go here again. The place is small so it isn't good for big groups. What also stands out about this place is their chairs are neon bright..nothing crazy just out of the ordinary. read more

Yelp challenge 17/100 Made to order when I came here on a Saturday afternoon, the pescado (fish) tacos were some of the best I've had in the san gabriel valley and also extremely affordable! We were the only customers here and 6 freshly fried/grilled piping hot tacos were served within 5 minutes of ordering. Only 1.50$ per fish taco but on Tuesdays and Thursday they give you 2 Fish Tacos for 1$ what a steal! Camaron (shrimp) and asada (beef) tacos were also ordered and I couldn't tell a big difference between the shrimp and the fish since they were both deep fried... XD Asada tacos weren't exciting. This is a pretty tiny "hole in the wall" type joint on the corner of Ramona blvd and Durfee ave in the city of El Monte located near the 605 freeway. Will be back to try out the burritos! read more

(^。^) Fish taco that make your belly and wallet happy (^。^) I think I find the cheapest Fish Taco in L.A. 2 Fish Tacos for only 99 cents in Tuesday and Thursday, you heard that right. 2 Delicious Fish taco for a buck, most other place will only do one for a dollar but not for both. You can order multiple fish tacos for the same promotion price too. It located between Ramona and Durfee Ave in El Monte, near the 605 freeway. The restaurant is like your usual Mexican Mom and Pop. There is few tablet inside, you paid the food at front. Fish tacos were my favorite since this is type of taco is hard to make at food. The fish tacos were good, not the best I had. However, for that price is a total steal. I am surprise that this place isn't crowded during lunch time in weekday. This place definite deserves more customer, amazing price and good fish tacos! read more

Taco Burger Place - All this for only $3 !!!! 2 Fish tacos for 99 cents in tues/thurs. - Seafood Near Me - El Monte, California

Years ago, I had a friend who taught at a nearby high school. She told me this was the best fish taco in L.A. I scoffed and didn't believe her. Well, they certainly have amazing handmade tortillas. They are huge! Which means a huge taco. The fish was very mild, bordering on "bland" for some people. That's what salsa is for! Ah, the salsa could have used more kick. I generally like salsa verde over salsa roja for tacos but opted to use the roja when the verde did not do the job. Fish taco $1.50 Shrimp taco a whopping $3 It was $4.90 after tax and I didn't even get a drink. Hm. But they did give us free chips and salsa. On Thursdays, they do two fish tacos for $1. I think that's a stellar deal considering the size of these things. Of course, by the time you get to the second one, the juices, crema and salsa might have soaked into the tortilla making it a bit messy to eat. I enjoyed the fish more than the shrimp taco more. I don't know if it's because the fish wasn't $3! Still, I loved the kitschy atmosphere from the giant marlin on the wall to the neon colored chairs. They also have outdoor seating. You order at the counter and they bring the food to you. Someone came by several times to check on us. Taco N Tento is on the corner of Ramona and Durfee. There's plenty of street parking and they share a lot with a small grocery and laundrymat. They are very close to the 605 freeway, right off Ramona. I'm definitely going back to try more things on the menu. And they had a huge amount of soups. I counted at least 7 or 8 different types. Mmm, seafood soup! read more

eatery #6 my friend went to buy fish tacos and shrimp tacos. I really like the shrimp taco. It was a pretty big taco with a good amount of shrimps. The shrimps were fresh too; wasn't mushy nor dipped in too much batter. i enjoyed it so much that a few days later after i first tried it , i went back for more. And dined there at the restaurant. it's a small place and this time seeing the menu, the prices were very reasonable. i tried their carne asada taco.. and it was eh. King Taco is much better. The quesadilla w/ carne asada was a bit salty. i think i'm just going to stick to their shrimp taco. As for the fish taco, i think taco nazo tastes a little better. Although this place isn't bad for their fish taco either. but yes, definitely shrimp taco for the win! read more

Crawl Stop #1 http://www.yelp.com/events/el-monte-please-sir-wont-you-feed-me-fish-tacos As this is a fish taco crawl the review is for the fish tacos only. This place had the best tacos of the entire crawl for many reasons. The tortillas were hand made and perfect texture. Although the hand made tortilla tacos were not part of the 2 for a dollar fish taco deal they were still just $1.50 each and they were at least twice the size of any of the other tacos on the crawl. Fish was perfectly cooked to a crisp and the sauce had just the right amount of tartness with a reasonable amount of cabbage to balance. Although it was said that the fish was a little bland I expect this type of fish to have a mild flavor and it didn't bother me with combo of other flavors and textures. I would go here again. 4 stars read more

My fiance was recommended to Taco N Tento by his friend. We decided to pretty much order a variety of foods on the menu. The fish tacos are amazing. The tacos are huge, fish is fried. It comes with a lot of sauce so I would recommend telling them to put it on the side. Fish taco specials on Tues and Thurs! I loved the shrimp ceviche. They give you so much shrimp and the sliced avocados on top were mmm mmm good. Price breakdown: Fish tacos - 2.50??

Pros: Yummy and cheap. I've had the tacos and burritos here and they are very tasty! I like the white sauce they use. I usually get the fish tacos since they are 2 for $1, and anything with shrimp as well. I also love the jamaica, it tastes very fresh! I've never had any problems with parking or finding a table, but that may be because I usually go on the wknds. It may be busier during wkdays b/c there's a high school down the street. Cons: None. Perfect hole in the wall! read more

Their other items look really good and I'm excited to come back to try their menudo and burritos. read more

During my recent trip to LA, I wanted to try some authentic Mexican Tacos, and boy did this Taco N Tento deliver. The fish tacos here were awesome! The fish is fried and the tacos come with lettuce, tomatoes, onions, limes and sauce. What's so amazing is the size of the tortilla, price, and quality of the fish tacos. They were $1.50 each! As a group of 5, we ordered 20 of them and I was pretty full after 3 tacos. This speaks to how enormous they were. We also ordered the nachos where were $5. Chips and Salsa also came with our meal. Being from DC, I'm sure it's not hard to find $1.50 tacos in LA, but I would probably pay double for these in DC. They were just that good. Overall, if you're looking for delicious fish tacos in El Monte (LA area), look no further than Taco N Tento! -- Check out my other reviews at http://nextstopdc.blogspot.com/ read more

tip: Tuesdays and Thursdays 2 fish tacos for a buck Tacos on the small side but very cheap. The joint is pretty decrepit but still serves good food. The batter on the fried fish was a little weird because the batter didn't really cleanly surround the piece of fish. There were bits of fried batter even on the taco. Maybe the batter was not thick enough or the oil was not hot enough. read more

I recently moved down the block from this place. I live in a place that I share with 16 ppl. So someone is going here at some point during the the day. I've seen the food and had not yet tried it until last Wed night. I got home and they made something I didn't care fore. The manager has been telling me this place has good burgers and fries for under 10 bucks. She said the fish tacos were off the hook and their shrimp cocktail was really good. So when she heared I didn't like the food here at my house she offered to go to this place and get me one of those three dishes. I couldn't decide but I knew I didn't want a burger. I told her to surprise me. With in 20 min she was back with what looked like a lot of food I only gave her 10 bucks. She got me the shrimp cocktail. I must admit I was hoping for the fish but was very surprised and happy and full with the shrimp cocktail. It comes with a lot of tomatoes avocados and shrimp good size shrimp 2 flat tortilla shells sides of chill and lime. Man did I enjoy that. I will update this as time goes by and I try more of their food. But for now they been great. Oh BTW the shrimp cocktail with a can of Pepsi came out to 8 bucks. read more
