Very disappointed. The app does not allow you to choose the type of protein you want!or the type of sauce. The red sauce has no flavor.

I am officially addicted. It's a 15-20 minute drive from my place and I'll actually get into my car and go get these tacos at all hours of the day AND night. That is absolutely ridiculous considering I live a mile from El Burrito Junior, but I can't get over the Lengua Tacos. The beef tongue is soft and juicy, and getting it with everything is a must. The Carne Asada Fries will cure any hunger, hanger, and hangover! There are a lot of fries, and every single one is COVERED in carne asada and cheese. I've also tried the Carne Asada Tacos, the Carnitas Tacos, and the Al Pastor, and all are fantastic. And I don't know what they put in the Cabeza Tacos but they're so fatty and soft that you don't even have to chew! At just under $2 for any meat-packed, overstuffed taco, you can't beat the flavor or the price! read more

im a regular here & cant understand why they dont get higher ratings. my mexican food snobby boyfriend agrees. their meats are distinctly flavorful (al pastor, tripas, asada are my top 3) & i'm sorry, but cant name a place that makes better quesadillas! & dont get me started on their green salsa... crazy good! read more

Food is ok. But customer service is horrible, my visit was on Wednesday August 26th 2020, at 4:40 pm. The cashier needs customer service skills, she is so rude and mean. Love the tacos there but not appreciate the rude customer service. read more

I practically lived off of their Carne Asada (and the occassional Bean & Cheese) burritos for like 5 years. This was a little over 10 years ago. I went so often I even became proficient ordering en Espanol, which is notable because I speak no Spanish and suck at all foreign languages. I really kinda miss this place..... had no idea it's open 24/7. Maybe time to go back? every so often, the wait can be pretty long, and blaring polka music from the jukebox is really really loud but after a while you don't even notice it! I swear! read more

Keeping this simple. Food is good, service sucks, place is dirty. Price is nice. I'd come back, maybe get it to go?

Living in Southern California, you come to expect great Mexican food to be available everywhere and anywhere. I've experienced some gastronomical deliciousness, while still finding places that disappoint with what they consider "Mexican food" these days. So, when I was driven to the ghetto-er side of Torrance and read "Taco Sinaloa #3" on a small sign next to a Hong Kong Express, I was weary the number referred to the quality of this restaurant. What did I find? DECO: 3 stars The place has the standard deco most "real" Mexican restaurants have. There are hand painted murals on the walls. The place is decently lit, covered on three sides with windows made opaque from the various menu items painted on them. There is a crane game filled with generic stuffed animals, and a jukebox filled with Mexican records and albums. Adjacent to those two is a salsa bar filled with sliced beets, jalapeños, pico de gallo, green sauce, red sauce, and a hand written sign above that warns customers if they take more than they need, they will be charged. This is foreshadowing to the deliciousness of those sauces. There is a large menu above the counter where you order, and the large opening allows you to see some of the cooking magic. The tables aren't the cleanest, but that's how most hole-in-the-wall places are. SERVICE: 3 stars Not much service here. You order and pick it up when your number is called. I guess how good your service is really depends on you. FOOD: 4 stars This is the shining star, the quality you expect from "authentic Mexican food". Without a doubt, their tacos are the best thing on the menu. Tacos are great because you can get as many as you want or as little as you need. The tacos here remind you of the street tacos you'll find in any metropolitan city. They're smaller than what you would find at a Taco Bell or Del Taco, but they're packed with much more flavor than any taco you'll find at an American-Mexican restaurant. The top three tacos I'd recommend are: 1. Pescado - diced breaded white fish that is amazingly still moist and tender, even though it's fried. 2. Cabeza - the cheek meat of the cow, slowly braised and cooked for hours. It is incredibly tender and almost melts in your mouth. They are very generous with the portion of the meat, usually brimming over the borders of the tortilla. 3. Carne asada - the staple meat of almost all Mexican cuisine. Theirs are rich in flavor, marbled with fat, and juicy. My mouth is watering just thinking about taking a bite. All the tacos are garnished with a diced onion/cilantro mix. Most of the tacos are naturally spicy before any salsa is added. However, the tortilla is subtly sweet, giving a contrast in the flavor spectrum with each bite. The salsa though is key. If you like your taco spiced up with some extra heat, go for the green and red sauce. The red sauce is the spicier of the two, adding some intense heat for each bite that'll be sure to cure a cold. The green sauce is a bit milder, but not by much. If you enjoy the deep, rich flavors of peppers, the green sauce is what you're going to want. *Pro-tip: If you really want to see how good the salsas are, go get a few tacos from Taco Sinaloa, grab the salsas, and head over to get a two item from Hong Kong Express. The salsa from Taco Sinaloa goes incredibly well with the chow mein and fried rice. PRICE: 4 stars The pricing is very affordable. The tacos are only about $1.25 each. Usually, I end up getting three or more tacos. It's worth every penny. The rest of the menu is around the usual prices you'll find for Mexican food at places like this. CONCLUSION: If you ever find yourself in the South Bay and fiening for some dank tacos, you need to drive yourself over to Crenshaw and Western. Whether it's from a late night LAN party or the ever glow after drinking, Taco Sinaloa is the place to go to satiate all your late night desires. It is open 24 hours after all. read more

Yup its the aftermath of every party night you look forward to :) After a great night in Hermosa Pier, this is definitely the place to hit up for drunk food. Apparently there isn't too many choices in the south bay, so this is the late night hot spot. Great for big to small groups. Very casual, ghetto but good. Came here in the day before, so its also good during sober days haha Enjoy! P.S. Don't expect clean tables haha read more

Poor quality food and the way it's served is unbelievable. The rice was horrible. I mean it's a restaurant for crying out loud. How dare you serve burned rice and hard? The beans dried like crazy not even edible. The enchiladas no flavor and dried as well. Paste looking sour cream. I would give this place a 0 if I could. The pictures do no justice. read more

It was disgusting the quesadilla was a wannabe burrito. It was gross!! I was not a fan at all.

Rude. Unsanitary. And flat out unsatisfactory. Don't waste your time with this place. My boyfriend and I came here for lunch today (we've come here several times after long nights of drinking) but this time was extremely disappointing. From the very beginning, the lady at the register was rude. She asked us if we wanted our drinks in a "bottle or can" and we kept asking her to repeat herself because we couldn't understand her at first as she had a very strong Spanish accent. Then she finally raised her voice and said with an attitude "bottle or CAN or FOUNTAIN" and pointed to the fountain drinks as she threw her hands up in the air. She proceeded to grab our fountain cups (touching the inside of the cups and inside of the lids with her bare hands) and placing the lids on our cups touching every part. Not to mention, the kitchen looked like it hadn't been swept or cleaned in weeks. The salsa bar was out of limes and completely disgusting and unorganized. When we finally tried to sit down at a table, ALL 14 tables were dirty (there was only about 4 customers total in the entire restaurant at this point) and we had to address the busser to clean at least one so we could sit. Unacceptable. Now for the food: We witnessed one of the chefs grab the chips and topping with his BARE hands. Disgusting and unsanitary. A bunch of the tapatio bottles were missing their caps and were dirty and had dried sauce all over them (refer to picture)... just gross. I ordered two flautas, and they came out practically like taquitos. Hard and crunchy and burnt. Not what I ordered. The chicken inside of my boyfriends chicken burrito wasn't fully cooked. Pink and cold. I actually work as a waitress at a Mexican restaurant in redondo beach so I have somewhat of an understanding of what Mexican food should be like...and this was by far the worst restaurant experience I've ever had. Waste of money and time. Do not come here if you're looking for a pleasant and clean experience. read more

Thank you ladies for turning this around and making it w positive experience. The horchata drinks are delicious!

Unfortunately, we are very disappointed the food has no flavor. We wanted to get a Cali burrito with shrimp and they said they couldn't do it. I got nachos and my husband got a burrito and taco and his plate had no flavor either. The kitchen and the bathroom were dirty, so that was scary. I will not return. read more

Food was great but portions could have been bigger for the price. Do I seriously need to write more than that first sentence to post this review? WTF mate read more

I use to eat here often a few years ago when I lived down the street. Went in today and I will never return. Ordered a California burrito with Al pastor and it was terrible. Possibly the worst burrito I've ever had. A soggy mess and the meat tasted like canned meat. Too much sauce and low quality tasting ingredients. Next time I'll save money and eat dog food at home.. read more

I've heard lots of good things about this 24/7 taco place from my co-workers, so I just had to give it a try. Originally, I thought this will be a quick grab-and-go trip ... well I was completely wrong. The waiting line wasn't awfully bad, but I didn't particularly like how cashier took her time taking orders as well as her nonchalant attitude. Soft shell tacos ($1.39 each) - asada (broiled beef), al pastor (marinated pork), cabeza (beef cheek meat), lengua (beef tongue): I probably liked al pastor the best - flavorful marinated meat. Both beef cheek and tongue weren't too shabby, but not really out-of-this-world good. Asada wasn't very memorable. Horchata ($1.69 medium): Probably as good as you can get in the South Bay area. It was GOOD. You can't go wrong with al pastor and horchata. However, I do really think this place need to hire more employees - waiting line needs to move a bit faster ... sigh, the frustration. read more

It was okay! However Big plate portions! I haven't been able to eat so next time that's what I am looking forward to try. Their meat!! I ordered chilaquiles con huevó, and it was a good plate, but at the day of the day my stomach kinda ached. I will update my review once I try their tacos tho. read more

The owner needs to fire that cashier lady. She is extremely rude, giving people attitude when they are paying customers. She acts as if she is annoyed because you ordered there and making her work. Don't go here useless you like getting an attitude for no reason. read more

You know when they say "You know the food is good when the place is ghetto" This is that kind of place. It is an old tatered building with legit street style tacos. I mean the good stuff. Price is good. And full of flavor. Order 3 Cabeza Tacos - I like this gelatinous meat. Full of flavor and this place cooks it for 16hrs straight. This is my go to taco here hands down. 2 Carne Asada Tacos - Meat is tender and has the spices. A little on the dry side compared to Cabeza but its my #2 Taco. 1 Pollo Taco - A surprise here. Most places dont have chicken taco. Just the beef and pork. But here the chicken is twnder and juicy and very well flavores. My #3 Taco here. I always get at least one. Chips and Guac - Chips are light and airy. Lightly salty. Not greasy or hard. Just right. Guac on thw other hand looks like its a mix food processed and small chunks added. Not my style I prefer, but the taste is there and it satisfies the guac craving a tad. Mexican Coke - Its mexican coke. Can not get anything better. Unless it's a beer. LoL Overall, get past the ghetto and tattered look and go for the great tacos. Enjoy and Stay Wild! read more

I am a regular customer here and realized I have never left a review. I give 4 stars, only because of the older woman cashier. She is so rude and her whole demeanor screams 'I hate it here'. Everytime you ask her a question, it's always "huh?" "What?" and you have to repeat yourself a lot. She usually messes up my order in the process somehow. If you don't like working there, then leave. Simple as that. Other than that, when she's not working, this place is the go to! Food is bomb! Other workers are nice and always give great customer service! Cool art on the walls and the tables & chairs give a very cool vibe! Sucks they are no longer 24/7 due to Covid, so I hope that changes back when it's all over! The place is definitely known for their Carne Asada Fries and I get them every single time!! Both my pregnancies I was here multiple times a week! 10/10 recommended! read more

Not really excited about this place, I'm a taco guru I don't mind going to hole in the wall spots to find good grub. The ambiance was horrible, the lady who took my order moody, and food was ok. I won't be back read more

I tried 4 different tacos. The meat was very fresh and it came hot and full of flavor. I would gladly go back. The workers were very quick and friendly. read more

Taco Sinaloa - Taco time - Mexican Near Me - Torrance, California

We have been to this place a lot in the past, and have always enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. Today's visit made us decide that, the next time we want a good Mexican meal, we will go to one of the hundreds of other Mexican restaurants in the area. The lady at the counter taking orders was kind of rude. The guy that used to work the register was so friendly. Our Dine In meal was served in styrofoam containers, and was missing a couple of items. Not the end of the world, but enough to make us go elsewhere in the future. read more

This place is a hit or miss. Stopped by to get some Pozole but it's not ready yet. I ended up getting Carne Asada Burrito and Al Pastor Taco instead. The burrito was just just bland and lacking flavor. The Al Pastor Taco was dry. The dining area was dirty, dirty dishes on the tables, trash was overflowing. read more

Taco Sinaloa - Carne Asada Burrito and Taco Combo Plate. - Mexican Near Me - Torrance, California

This is my go to spot for over 20 years. I have enjoyed this spot, but this guy right here, made it the worse experience ever. I use to live around here 20 yrs and and returned to the area 4 years ago. I order the same thing every time, Shrimp Ceviche. Well, the female that is usually at the register is great, friendly and definitely a reason to return. This guy is short with you and made the line wait for 10+minutes, while he went off taking care of other orders, terrible customer service. I waited so long already, I didn't want to leave. If this is the owner or a Manager, my advice to you is to treat every customer with respect and making the line wait even longer than usual, is terrible customer service. Get it together. read more

Taco Sinaloa - I come in here all the time, this 1 man, gave me the worse service I have ever had in coming in here since the late 1990s. - Mexican Near Me - Torrance, California

What do tacos remind you of. Those late nights/early mornings out of the club? Could it be that moment after taking the first bite when you know today was a great day? Unfortunately, this is the former. These are the kind of tacos you go get when you're completely plastered and you just need something to keep the demon at bay, not caring of such things as taste or texture as long as it is in front of your face. I was unfortunate enough to have a craving for tacos. Hole in the wall, delicious tacos. In the south bay. Well, let's open up yelp and see that, perhaps, this place has promise and although rough around the edges, may satisfy that insatiable need. Hmm not highly rated, well you never know. 2 carne asada, 2 al pastor and 1 birria plate later, I was convinced of my mistake. The carne asada and al pastor looked far far from fresh and tasted like they have been sitting on the side for hours. There was no lovely char on the al pastor that you expect when cooking on the spit. No intense flavor from the carne asada. It was all just bland. Perhaps the greatest let down was the birria. Flavorless. This was definitely not quinceañera worthy. All this in addition to the flavorless, store bought tortillas that immediately decided to fall apart right before my first bite. Let's talk about ambiance. The inside definitely screams hole in the wall. Dated and dirty, it is definitely far from classy. The salsa bar, dirty and questionable. Plenty of parking, though, and the staff was really nice and friendly. Well most of them, except for the one whom a poor fellow asked if the salsa was hot or mild. For his question was dismissed without a response and the look on his face of disappointment was a premonition to the joyless culinary experience I would later have. Perhaps the only bright side was price. Tacos were on the cheap and contained a decent amount of the stuff they call meat. I also hear they are open late. Needless to say, this was my last visit. TLDR: Asada was flavorless, Al Pastor was mushy and old. Birria was bland. Tacos were cheap and fell apart. Salsas are decent. Place is dirty. Prices are cheap. Would not recommend. read more

Not great. Burrito Mojado (wet burrito) was plain, the steak was dry, and the sauce fell flat. The nachos were awful. A minimal amount of cheese, used a microwave to heat and was overpowered by mostly flavorless guacamole and refried beans. Had to ask for cilantro and onions to add some depth. Carnitas and cabeza tacos aren't bad, but again - not great. Would not return - really don't get the attachment most regulars have to this place read more

Starting to give up on Yelp. And it's due to certain Yerlpers who over-review.... Came here with a couple co-workers cause they wanted burritos and tacos and said this place had a bunch of good reviews.... here we go First, let's get this straight - this is a taco stand. This is not a restaurant, this is an enclosed taco stand, like a taco truck with an enclosed area where to sit with tables and chairs. I didn't ask for flies with my burrito. But we got them. Flies flying around... strike one Dirty tables everywhere... strike two There where a bunch of empty tables, but all dirty. Dishes, leftovers, pretty gross... we figures maybe we missed the rush, that was reason for dirty tables, and someone would be coming out cleaning real soon. Nope. Not at all. There were two clean tables so we took them. Felt like we were gonna fall through the chair cushions. And to top it off. My (_!_) felt moist after sitting in that chair through our meal. Felt like I needed to go home shower and change after that! What's up with that!?!? Gross!! Not sure how they have an A. Pretty shady though if you ask me. I ordered an Al Pastor burrito. Tons of beans and rice. And very little Al Pastor meat. Overall good flavor on rice, beans, and meat. Two stars for OK FLAVOR. However, for 6.49 a pop for a regular sized burrito, there must be meat. For a taco stand. Too much $$. No horchata or anything to go with that. So strike 3... Co workers said their food was OK. Recommend? I guess if it's late night, you are drunk, and hungry and just happen to be within the area, yes. Otherwise, many many many other burrito and taco places to take a pick. At much cheaper price for quality and quantity... go to Tacos Raul or Tacos Giyo. $5.50 a meat stuffed burrito with a drink and a clean place... Positively will say, this place, never again for me... read more

I've been here a few times to satisfy my inner fat kid cravings at all hours of the day/night. It's good. It's opened 24 hours. I've got a few choices of sauces and sides. They're efficient.

Worst tacos I've ever had. The chicken tacos had such a strange smell too, I couldn't eat them.

Wanted to have pozole at 12:30 am but they are close, so the 24/7 hours is no more accurate. Not sure when theu open and close though.

Every neighborhood has a spot, and I think I found it. I was looking for places to eat in the area for lunch, and by chance I found it. It's been so hot lately, and all I wanted was something light and refreshing. At first, I pulled up to Alfredo's drive thru and asked if they served ceviche. Nope. Then, I saw it. Taco Sinaloa open 24 hours. Parked, walked in, and asked if they served shrimp ceviche. YES. Add that avocado & extra lemon and lime to go, and you are set! Needless to say, it hit the spot. The ceviche is refreshing as well as light. And, they're open 24 hours! I'm not from this area, but if I was I'd be making late night pit stops all the time for those late night munchies. Taco Sinaloa is nothing fancy, and kinda divey. It reminds me of a 24 hour taco spot at home. I'm not looking for bells and whistles, just good food. If you're in the area and looking for something to eat, espesh on a hot summer day or night, try their seafood. It's by far, the best place I've found in this area! read more
