effin trash. Just left from there ordered 3 shrimp tacos and one chicken and it look like they just threw my food together. No love put into making my order, horrible presentation. Sad this is what you pay $18 for. Spent with black owned in our history month and this is the sad result. Disgusting. read more

So today me and bro go up to taco Mel and we ordered our food in total it was three burritos in all. I got 2 chicken burritos. One as it comes and the other one(mine) was going to me specific things I wanted. So I asked nicely oh what comes on the chicken burrito again. The cashier was rude told me what was on the chicken burrito I asked if they had black beans again he said no with an attitude. Then my big bro ordered a shrimp burrito we paid for our food waited for our food got our food went home. The food was not good like I don't know what the cooks did it was not on point at all. All the burritos were salty it was just not good. Which is a shame because the first time I tried this place it was good so I don't know but if your going to sell food be nice to people. read more

This is a review from #NOT4$ale626 Haven't heard about this catering place until this event. Apparently there are restaurants too? Anyway, the tacos were awesome! The shells really stuck out to me. Not only that, but the sprinkles of cheese at the bottom were a nice surprise. Great meats within the tacos (had beef and chicken). Loved the sauce too. It was a slight kick so it brought the tacos to another level. Would recommend! read more

Yummy n good hood tacos! I got the steak n shrimp burrito per the employees suggestion and got a few tacos to bring home and snack on later. Everything tasted fresh, was flavorful and a pretty quick order/get food process. Idk what they do to the shell of the tacos but they're kinda grilled and just elevate the taco. I truly couldn't tell you if they were flour or corn bc I didn't think about what I was eating until it was all gone. Oops. Next time! read more

Taco Mell has been on my bookmarks list for at least three years with tales of their legendary three meat burrito. Finally, stuck in my office during covid one day I caved and ordered what turned out to be a rock solid burrito. Star 1: How were the service and atmosphere? I had my burrito delivered, so I can't speak to Taco Mell's shop or service, but I've only heard good things and my delivery couldn't have been faster. This burrito was literally in the Uber Eats car minutes after ordering - it was impressive. Star. Star 2: How were the portions relative to the cost? $14.00 may seem like a lot for a burrito, but this was a monstrosity filled with chicken, steak, and shrimp. Well worth it and it could have easily covered two meals. Star. Stars 3 and 4: How was the food? This was a solid burrito. The meats came together in a way that works, and the peripherals like the beans and onions and the like, while a bit heavy, brought it all together. Single Star. Star 5: Would you be excited to go back? Definitely. Good stuff. Star. read more

All the way from Sac taco Mell is fireeeeee !! Every time I come down to Los Angeles I always try to get me some taco mall !!

It's sad to even have to write this review, I've heard so many good things. This food I just had delivered to me is a waste of money!!!! I got the 3 meat combo bowl & a large kool aid. I asked for the sauce in the side, they drowned the damn food in sauce( Sauce on the side should be a no brainer when delivering food) Gauc was $1 extra look at what I got Got No Cilantro, Onions, nothing that was advertised. The beef & chicken are both salty as hell! Can't even eat it. The shrimp is ok only 4 of them in the whole bowl. The Rice is mushy definitely not fresh. Shit was $21 for trash. Ate 3 bites and got a stomach ache immediately. I called the restaurant and they never picked up. I will never order here again, don't waste your money legit this is not cool at all. read more

First and foremost congratulations are in order. Started from the bottom now they're here. When you go from a street corner to a packed store front you deserve all the praise and glory that come along with that accomplishment. Of course we had to get the three meat burrito. The portion size was enough for two meals even though I ate it in one. The three meat had chicken, carne asada, and shrimp. All the meats were perfectly tender and the rice and beans were seasoned just right. I only have one complaint and that's that my $12 burrito only had 4 shrimp in it. read more

I always see people raving about this place in different social media platforms so I definitely had my eye and bookmark on this place. My brother decided to take us, there's construction on chrenshaw so if you're not from this area prepare for traffic, difficulty parking, cones, streets cut off etc When you enter it's not to spacious nowhere to really sit and enjoy your food if you want to eat there. I ordered the 3 meat burrito (shrimp, chicken, steak) it comes with rice, beans, onions & cilantro I request no beans, paid 50 cent extra for cheese and use my check in to order a free chicken taco. Total $12.59 As soon as I'm done paying for it the guy was already handing me the bag with my food in it, I suppose the meat is already cooked so it makes it faster than cooking when you order. I wasn't to concerned as I would be because since it was so busy I could understand why the meat was already prepared. I get home Unravel my baby burrito, the first thing I noticed the tortilla itself on the outside was extremely greasy! Every bite I took I kept getting residue on my mouth and it felt like I was trying to consume Vaseline. The steak was salty and tough it tasted exactly like a Slim Jim, the chicken was good probably the best part because the shrimp was vague there was barely any in my burrito but I'm going to blame it on the fact that I had 2 other proteins in my burrito. I tried both the red and green salsa the red was caliente while the green had a slight kick both good. The chicken taco was yummy, I didn't finish my burrito it just wasn't all that to me, if I ever go back I'll stick with the tacos. I love to see black owned business thrive and flourish, I hope you guys can benefit the community as we continue to support this establishment. read more

After following the Taco Mell IG account for the past few months I finally saw the restaurant when I was driving down Crenshaw one day and decided to stop to get lunch. It is right behind a gate where the city is doing construction so that is why I never noticed the location before. I ordered the chicken and steak burrito with everything and ordered my friend the 3 meat burrito bowl. The burrito was HUGE. Like HUGE huge. I was only able to take a few bites before I was stuffed, but it was really good! The meat was flavorful, the red and green salsas were on point. In hindsight, I wished I would have got the bowl because it was also a lot of food, minus the tortilla. I also want to try the nachos! The customer service was great and it was nice to see the restaurant being run by a group of black men. The parking is tricky because of the construction. I was lucky enough to find a spot on the street a few doors down, but it looked like people were parking in a lot around the corner and walking on the side of the building to get in. read more

The food was GREAT and the services was wonderful. They had no idea of what they were stepping into when they showed up to cater my Ladies' Not Out event. They served over 70 women in one night chicken, steak and shrimp tacos. We had a marvelous time and enjoyed all the love they poured into serving us. read more

The flavors were great but the meat was OVER seasoned which didn't really make the 3 meat burr too enjoyable. I don't know maybe I had a bad batch? ‍ Update: So I'm changing my review to 2 stars because I ordered online and ordered a steak and shrimp burrito but they sent me steak and chicken. This has actually happened to me before when I've ordered through an app but I never said anything about it because I wasn't tripping, after all their flavors are bomb and I love supporting my black businesses, but this has been the 3rd time they've messed up my order through online services and now I'm here. This time around, I ordered 10mins after they opened. So they probably didn't have the shrimp ready? But no excuse, If you are out of shrimp or whatever ingredients the least you can do is call the customer and let them know if they'd like to substitute or just let them know period! This is really disappointing because it has happened 3 times to me now . Bomb food but your staffs communication needs to come up! read more

Been coming here for about a year now. First started drooling over the tacos and burritos on Instagram and I HAD to try. That 3-meat burrito is my FAVE! Consistently good food and service. Not gonna lie, a lot of "urban" establishments tend to skimp on the service but this place is nowhere close to that. They are always on point. I always order on the app and EVERY time that I go inside to pick up, the all-male staff addresses me by name and is sure to thank me for coming in. It's delightfully refreshing to have this level of courtesy and professionalism, in the neighborhood. I appreciate that. Keeps me coming back (well that and that three meat!) Plus that red sauce is ON!!! read more

Staff is friendly, ingredients are fresh and everyone was full and satisfied. Now it does look closed from the outside. Thats bcuz of construction just call to make sure and go support.

I was in LA for the weekend and made the trek out to Taco Mell's spot for a burrito. It was a little hard to find the location, there's major construction going on next door ~ tall fences and large construction equipment. It's at the end of a row of shops, about a block from Leimert Park. The shop is pretty clean. ATM machine available at the entrance. Plan on getting your order to-go, they don't have any tables to sit at. We ordered 2 burritos - one 3 meat with cheese and a 2 meat with sour cream and cheese. 2 kool-aids. Came to $30 - that's a damn expensive meal I can't sit down and enjoy. This is why 4 stars and not 5 stars. Kool-aid was on the sweeter side, several flavors to choose from. I picked red AKA tropical punch. The burritos were good. Nice size, plenty of fillings. The meat was flavorful and well cooked, not overdone. I don't know it's just me but the carne asada tasted like it was seasoned with taco seasoning. But I like tacos, so... They do have a yelp check in offer. When I'm back in the area, I'll brave that atrocious LA traffic and go back. I guess SD has me spoiled, a taco shop that closes at 7 on a Friday?? read more

Support black businesses but also tell truths. My truth is that taco Mell is lackluster. Very salty and not edible the next day. Usually leftovers are better but I did not finish my bland chicken burrito and finished it the next day. It was worse. I've been a few times thinking my taste buds may have been off. They are not. read more

Ok so I've heard about this burrito for a while now and finally had the chance to stop by their spot. It's been open for a year and I had no idea. If you can't get to their spot or are short on time no worries they have an app where you can order for pick up and have a food truck; I follow them on Instagram and that's where I see the post for the store hours along with truck location and hours. They are located on Crenshaw maybe 1/2 to 1 block from Leimert Park. There is some major construction going on so the store front is hard to see but plenty of parking in the back and get this it's only .25 for 30 minutes WINNING. Now onto the food. They have several different options but are famous for the 3 meat burrito we're talking chicken beef and shrimp yeah I said it right 3 meat!!! We lol it was only supposed to be him opted for two meat chicken and shrimp and when I say they do not play with the portions just check out my pics. Everything is seasoned full of flavor. Customer service was on point. I definitely recommend checking them out. read more

Would have given 5 star the burrito was delicious and the koolaid it was on point ..however if you have options for sour cream a dollar extra guacamole a dollar extra you should put on a burrito or take it off the damn menu because I paid $12 for a burrito I would've paid $9 4 because I didn't get my extra condiments or the cook doesn't know how to read the items on the order...would order burrito again but not the extras matter of fact I did NOT even get the basic red sauce or cilantro or onions that comes with the burrito ... I would have paid $36.00 instead I paid $42 for items I didn't receive. You've been warned don't get the EXTRA cause u pay extra for EXTRA NOTHING lol read more

When your office executive assistant says " I'm going to Taco Mell, do you want anything?" I said yeah! I had 3 shrimp tacos, which was very simple but sooooo delicious. The tortillas was grilled perfectly, full plump shrimp, but somehow they missed the hot sauce, or taco sauce or whatever they use. I missed that sauce because I think that would've give the tacos more of a Mexican-y taste. Otherwise, they were satisfying for lunch. I'm a supporter of the urban chef movement and Taco Mell is a great addition to the lineup. Try them, you'll like it! read more

YO! Ive lived in Los Angeles my whole friggin Life and I promise you this is one of the BEST BURRITOS OR TACOS you will find! They season the meat to perfection (others may find the steak a tad Salty) and the portions are huge. 2 meat burrito w/ cheese guac and sour cream cost me about $13 but niccccaaaaaaaaa, its WORTH IT. The shrimp are bomb too. Service was great- the guys move fast and they are super friendly. Call ahead! Definitely going to check out their catering menu for parties. Parking is Trash. People Fight for parking in the back around lunch time - verbal altercations! Then when u do find a spot its next to a crackhead. I swear if the local crackheads tamper with my parked vehicle I will unwrap my burrito and Smoosh it in they FACE. 5 STARS! read more

Oh, and the hours are from 12-5 so it's not convenient for the average working person...unless you happen to work in that area. The burrito itself is bomb.

TACO HELL CATERING I wish there was a zero star rating!! I love to support black owned businesses however Taco Hell has been a nightmare! Our first catering experience was when they did not show up or call for my nephews graduation party. My sister was given $150 credit for them ruining her sons graduation party. We hosted a family gathering opted to give them a 2nd chance. They arrived 3 hours late, this time but hey at least they showed after we called several times. Well since they were late, the food was great right....NOPE!! The server took about an hour to set up and wait for it....the food was COLD!! This guy was full it... I mean he gave every excuse in the book as to why he was late, why the propane tank was leaking, why he thought he didn't need a propane tank, why the owner didn't tell him this or that excuse after excuse after the EXCUSE! Never ma'am I'm sorry what can I do to rectify the situation. If you want the hell experience, Taco Mel is the place to go. HORRIBLE!!! You've been warned!! read more

They know how to make some good burritos here! The burritos and tacos have that homemade taste that's not manufactured and processed like many restaurant chains. The ingredients taste fresh and the chicken, steak, and shrimp are quality. I prefer the "surf and turf" burrito (chicken & shrimp) with chipotle sauce. The shrimp is seasoned just right and not over cooked while the chicken is hearty, flavorful, and juicy. The burritos are big enough to split especially if you get the famous "3 Meat." This LA food movement is boomin' and I'm happy to see these young, black, entrepreneurs do their thang. Welcome to the neighborhood! Tips: -limited hours (12:30 to 5pm M-Sat) follow social media pages for important updates -no call in orders -surcharge for debit/credit cards so have cash handy -be patient there is usually a wait, I've had success between the hours of (1-3pm) -free parking in the back lot read more
