    Great Food! Enjoyed every bite, ambiance was so welcoming big portions I couldn't finish all, so happy my friend brought me to this place.

    Super Nachos

    Such a letdown. They got my to go order completely wrong, went back and forth with me about how I ordered something I didn't, and when they made what I actually ordered, its the driest chicken I've ever had.

    Seating
    Dee E.

    Let just being by saying that the service was good. Seating is ok, a little tight but it's not an issue. The food was a letdown to be honest. I really felt that no matter what I picked up, it was bland. The chips have no salt. The rice and beans no seasoning. Authentic Mexican rice should taste like tomato, onion, garlic, etc. The rice was also a bit dry. Beans had no flavor whatsoever. My flutas were shredded beef (carne desebrada). The beef was actually quite tasty. Not dry. And the tortillas had a thin crisp. Not too hard. But the guacamole was very disappointing. Lacked flavor. Didn't taste the lime, the union, or salt. And the texture was off. A bit watery. The salsas at the bar were ok. They were spicy. I think that's important. But seasoning is just as important. I saw that they have Pambasos on the menu. I'm a fan. Traditional pambasos are a French roll dipped in salsa guajillo, then lightly grilled. Stuffed with potato and chorizo, and topped with lettuce, sour cream and cheese. But the guy told me that they use what ever meat you prefer from their menu and that it comes with mashed potatoes. I'm sorry but no. Please no. Mashed potatoes is the last thing I expect with pambasos. We also ordered a sope de carnitas. The size is quite generous, but heavy with beans. I really do think that seasoning could improve.

    Veggie Burrito! No joke... 1.265lbs of goodness! Served with a side of tortilla chips!

    My burrito was EXCELLENT! They have a condiments bar for us customers to get our salsas and garnishment together ourselves for togo or for done-in. The parking is HORRIBLE - which I hate because I VERY MUCH liked my food. I did order ahead of time (called it by phone). I thought it would be a quick pick-up but it turned out to be an ordeal. It's a busy street, and the parking in front is for two cars. The street around the corner (also a busy street) has no parking signs.... So I had to keep going g around and around until I found a place. If you are not in a hurry... try it. You will enjoy your food.

    This is my family's favorite Mexican spot, they closed by my grandma's in the west side but this is my go-to location still around. I took a star off due to the parking situation is very rough. I door dash/uber eats this a lot dude to never getting a parking spot lol My favorite torta, ratio wise it's perfect in every bite. Sopes, nachos, and quesadillas with corn/flour options are nice!

    Carne Asada Burrito, Horchata
    Eric S.

    Was looking around for solid burrito place in Culver, and I think I've found one! Tacomiendo is a small hole-in-the-wall with limited parking outside, and Mexican music playing inside at the just the right volume- good vibes, but not overly loud to dissuade conversation. Ordered a carne asada burrito (which came with chips), and a large horchata. Service was very quick, polite, and they brought my order right to my table within 10 minutes. The chips were a little bit stale and slightly above room temperature. The horchata was more watery, with less flavor than I prefer. The star of the show, however, was the carne asada. Lightly toasted tortilla on the outside, just the right amounts of ingredients (and guacamole!) inside, and the carne asada was moist, seasoned, and tender- cooked just right! The complimentary salsa bar had a tasty green salsa that balanced the heavier burrito well. All in all, the meal was around $16, and I would definitely return for the carne asada burrito!

    Taco plate with Adobada
    John C.

    I've ordered from Tacomiendo a few times. Based on what I've ordered I give the food 3.5 stars, but the salsa bar gets 4.5 stars, so I'm rounding to 4 stars. Last time I went, I got the taco plate with a side of guacamole. I didn't know until I got home that the tacos did not come with onions. There were onions at the salsa bar, so next time I need to load up on those. For me the green salsa was just the right level, and the marinated carrots were delicious. The guacamole was just okay. Nothing special. The taco plate comes with sour cream and guacamole, so next time there's no need for me to order an extra side of it. A few people have mentioned that the place is small. It is, but there are at least 6 or 7 four person tables, so it is possible to eat in if you like.

    Fresh grilled Chicken Tostada
    Mr J Leslie S.

    I have been coming to eat here at Tacomiendo for over 10yrs and it's about time that I share my input in regards to my favorite dish (considering that there are a lot of choices that you can eat). I love TACOMIENDO'S Chicken Tostada, the greens , cream, guac , non-spicy salsa and their "fresh" grilled chicken are DA BEST! I always encounter Mr Ismael (I call him the "Big Man") who knows exactly how my "chicken tostada" is prepared. They have the best array of condiments and hot free "frijoles"! Tacomiendo was featured in Los Angeles Times Restaurant Magazine (a few years ago) They do a lot of "take out" orders. (Caveat: place not so big, parking is a pain) "Enjoy your meals at TACOMIENDO!"

My only gripe is that the prices continue to rise and the chips and salsa are only free for the first basket, which really takes away the appeal of a local family style Mexican restaurant. My fav burrito is now $20, and while the burrito itself is large, it's a high price to pay for just a burrito with no sides. I think if the chips and salsa were still unlimited the increase in food prices wouldn't be such a hit as well. Their drinks are always great I just wish they had happy hour since the prices really are up there with other new and modern restaurants with no fun deals or unlimited chips and salsa like many other family style places. Their servers are kind and attentive and there's not a crazy amount of tables so there tends to be a wait no matter the time of day. Also parking can be hard to find as it's basically located inside a neighborhood.

It's a nice spot with a good vibe, but the experience didn't fully live up to expectations. The biggest letdown was the happy hour drinks.

Not a terrible experience, but there's definitely room for improvement, especially on the drink side.

We arrived at a peak rush-hour time. Plenty of parking, and, while the line looked quite intimidating, the wait was not nearly as bad as it looked. Really fast service and friendly staff members. Note that there's not a lot of seating, so be prepared to potentially eat in your car or take the food to-go. I ordered a Tito's taco, an enchilada, a cup of guacamole to accompany the chips and salsa with my order, and a piña agua fresca. The taco was delicious. It could have been stuffed just a bit more, but it absolutely hit the spot. The enchilada was not nearly as good as the taco, unfortunately. Texture was very tough and dense, and the flavors were not quite there. The piña agua, however, was absolutely fantastic. Tasted exactly like a fresh pineapple with a perfect level of sweetness. The chips and salsa were my favorite part of the meal, though. The salsa was superb, the guac tasted great (very much a creamy, less viscous texture), and the chips were perfectly fried and obviously fresh. Personally, I thought the prices were fair for what we received. Way higher than a taco stand where the quality would be better, equal or slightly less than a taqueria, but way lower than one of the boutique taco shops around the area, especially given the fact that the chips and salsa come with each meal.

It is also a tragedy that the burrito is kids size that my 2 year old can eat on their own. These used to be my favorite and huge, but I can no longer order them. This place used to be a family favorite but I can no longer order extras like we used to. They closed off the inside which was convenient to order, I think just to make the outside look busy. I'm not a fan of these new changes to my favorite taco place in LA.
