    Tacos Dona Tota was absolutely amazing. Service was fantastic and everyone was so welcoming. Visiting here from the bay, the tacos were so delicious. Gabi treated us so well and the food was delicious. When I come back to Gardena, I most definitely am coming back.

    I came back and they were so gracious!!!! This time I took somebody who had never been, and they offered her some samples of the meat! Coming here felt like talking to someone's grandmother in the kitchen. There were some repeat customers already here, and they co-signed with me on how good these tacos are. They also have Birria Ramen now. There is a full on self-serve condiment bar, and a small area to eat. They did not have this before. Overall i am glad they grew and are getting the publicity they need. Cause this is the BEST taco spot in Gardena HANDS DOWN . I may go back today LOL

    Since this is across from the hustler casino, you would think you'd be gambling with this taco stand. But it's a sure fire thing. I'm a big believer that taco stands are high risk high reward, but i think i hit the jackpot here! I've been here multiple times before posting this review. I love this place. I'll ice any excuse i can to make it a taco night. They have excellent birria and the consomé I have tried most taco meat combinations and quesadillas. Their food is consistent and everything i have had has been delicious.

    Asada burrito

    Impromptu stop at Tacos Dona Tota the other night for a late Friday night dinner. Wasn't dissatisfied at all, very good customer service and didn't make me feel out of place. They had a vast menu with items being cooked up and prepared right in front of you. You're able to customize your food with different sauces and veggies, which was awesome. I can't handle the spicy stuff so I tried their green sauce and it was very tasty. I tried the Asada burrito with rice. I loved the freshness and the flavor. Definitely a hot spot to check out if you're in the surrounding area or maybe just passing through!

    This place was really closed to our place and we usually pass it by. Today my daughters were craving Birria which we love to eat. Their Birria was delicious. They served fast and the lady Ms Norma was so nice and friendly. She recommended Queso birria tacos which is good too. Their meat was well season and fresh so I definitely will come back!

    Al Pastor & Quesa Birria

    One of the best tacos I've ever had. My wife and I flew in to LAX late at night and picked this up on our way to our hotel. We split 3 Al pastor tacos & the birria taco. All of it was wonderful and packed with flavor. Be sure to get the consommé, that was wonderful as well. The staff was amazing and the cart was super clean. You can add your toppings on the side and they have a lot of great fresh options for that was well. Definitely give them a try!

    Great service with a smile. Quick delicious food. Can not complain. Try the cosumel, delicious

    Amazing food. Stop by and get you some. Great people over here. They were so sweet. Yuhhhhhhh

The shrimp was plump and flavorful. What amped up the flavor was the salsa on top which was super flavorful and fresh and not too salty for me. I also liked the creamy avocado on top. Everything held together well and it wasn't too messy to eat. I would keep coming back here for these alone. This is a food truck, but they actually have a designated indoor seating with ample tables and chairs and even bathrooms! Parking is street parking. I would highly recommend this spot among LA's best tacos spots.

Mariscos Jaliscos is a simple, humble and easy going food truck that easily beats any sit in boujee restaurant. Their menu is simple and easy to understand. Mariscos Jalisco is best known for their Fried shrimp tacos however, they have one of the best aguachiles I've tasted hands down. Their shrimp tacos are absolutely amazing with the right crunchiness and soft fried shrimp inside. The sauce that comes with these tacos are jam packed with flavor adding to the overall flavors/texture of the shrimp taco. Hurts to say it but this might be my new favorite shrimp taco in ELA/Boyle Heights area. The service here is quick and friendly. I went on a Friday afternoon and did not find busy crowds at this food truck. Street parking is available and the times that i've visited other food trucks nearby i was able to find quick parking. Its a busy street so you will find people coming in and out of parking spots most of the time. I enjoyed my experience here at Mariscos Jalisco and will be coming back very soon. You all need to come to this place.

There's still line(s) in front of nearly every food truck. Drinks are ordered from a table just outside the Victorian building.

Even an Ice Cream truck COOL HAUS. Of the 2 food trucks, Ahn Joo's truck got my first bite. Asked for kim chi fried rice, WITHOUT PORK, it was swiftly served up without a glitch. The kim chi was surprisingly very good. Good amount of napa cabbage inside, rather chunky. It fulfilled my kim chi craving at $7. The second food truck, India Jones, served up some medium spicy hot fare. Great value for $8.50. Ordered a combo of lentil dal and vegetable korma, which came with a generous serving of basmati rice. Not too spicy hot, just enough to make me tear up a little. India Jones had the longest lines and people gushed about the food.

Most of the other lots i've been to were not as crowded and there would be less than 10 or so people in line. Sometimes there would be NO lines at the other lots.

I recently enjoyed a viewing of "Jurassic Park" during an Eat See Hear event at Los Angeles State Historic Park when I was first introduced to Snowie Icy Desserts Food Truck. Although I frequently attended, worked, or volunteered at the myriad of year-around events throughout Southern California, this was my very first encounter with this meals-on-wheels. If you knew me at all, I LOVED all-things Hawaiian and shave ice was one of my favorite things to eat even as a meal itself. Would all of this bode well or would I desert this truck for another!? QUICK BIO "Snowie Icy Desserts and its owner Gisselle Lopez will transport you to the Islands with her beautiful mobile tiki shack! Their fluffy ice is available in over 30 flavors and their authentic Hawaiian toppings will definitely be a hit at your next event! If your party prefers ice cream they can offer a delicious sundae bar that will surely cater to everyone's palate. If you really want to make sure your guests have the sweetest experience, surprise them with our Fairy Floss Gourmet Cotton Candy treats; they're pure deliciousness!" PURCHASE Mango Watermelon Flavored Shave Ice ($5.00): On this sweltering day, nothing sounded better than shave ice. This fluffy mound of feathery soft ice was so delicate it started melting instantly. With an abundance of sweet mango and watermelon syrup throughout, you also had the option to add a drizzle of condensed milk on top and a scoop of ice cream at the bottom. This was edible art at a bargain price https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=wHErc9oORPDIJSEiUmXwng&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw! SERVICE A friendly woman greeted me, quickly took my order, and minutes later my order was ready, all decked-out in its glorious colorfulness in a festive flower cup. All was chillin' - aloha and mahalo! PARKING (Varied; FREE this instance) Being a food truck, they were at the beck and call wherever the event was held. In this case, the event took place at a state park with plenty of paid parking, FREE and timed street parking along the main drag of Spring St. and surrounding side streets, or you GoMetro as I did to the Chinatown Gold Line Station. Another option was a driving service like a bus, taxi, Lyft, or Uber - 'nuff said. ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE Your standard self-sufficient food truck with an exterior food menu, order and pick up windows, but no area for condiments, napkins, utensils, or designated seating area. Plenty of natural lighting was prevalent during the daytime while minimal electric park and streets glowed at night. There were no TVs unless you considered the movie screen and movie that played in the background. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=HTgLGqT9_BTSQMYyClmJvQ&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL I loved the Snowie Icy Desserts Food Truck and would definitely seek them out again at the next event I attended or worked. Heck... I just might hire them for a private party (951-216-8752)! First and foremost, they sold the far-superior shave ice and not the much-inferior show cone because there is a very distinct difference. Although I only tasted two flavors, I wanted to try them all! One simple request would be to offer azuki beans, coconut, and jackfruit as additional toppings. The price, portion size, and service were perfect. And, if shave ice wasn't your thing as crazy as that sounded, they also sold ice cream and other simple sweet confections. I found complete value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $5.00 BEFORE any discounts and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice...AMEX! 5.0 STARS

Birds were chirping and music was playing out of the speakers scattered throughout the area. It's a food truck. I ordered the cheesy Mikey. I only waited less than 5 minutes for it. The line to order was pretty long. I waited in that line for an hour or longer. But that's understandable since a lot of groups ordered tons of items while it was just me that ordered. I got to speak to Mike since one of his employees left. He verified my order, gave me napkins since it's not self serve and pointed out the ketchup and other condiments I think. The cheeseburger came with lettuce tomato onion garlic aioli sauce and the patty. I loved how all the flavors blended together, nothing was overpowering. It came with fries and it filled me up. The portion size was perfect. My order was $23.84 but that's because I tipped 10% and I think it was worth it. My one gripe was that they don't accept cash which is understandable because the kiosk was card only. I should've walked to the front and checked it or asked an employee.

I didn't wait too long for my food either and I can understand how stressful it can get and how backed up the orders can get too. Their speedy work is doubly impressive because they offered multiple things off their menu and allowed people to make customizations too. I got the Cheesy Mikey, which is their hand crafted 1/2 lb angus beef patty burger. The burger is seasoned with their Mike's Fat Boy's seasoning. The burger comes with a generous portion of chopped lettuce, sliced tomato, American cheese on a grilled brioche bun (it was grilled with butter and had a nice tasty crispy edge of the bun). The burger came with their garlic aioli sauce. It's a very filling burger and perfect for me since I didn't have breakfast. I will have to admit that this burger is a bit saltier than what I would have liked, but if you balance out your bites to get enough lettuce and tomato within the ratio, it balances out the saltiness, but if there's the option to adjust it, I definitely would. Overall, pretty good!

When the menu says corn "popperS," I thought I'd get more than one. The fact that they charged $4.00 for a half ear of corn is ridiculous. I was even madder because it was delicious! It was breaded and deep fried. The breading was great and ensured that the corn wasn't oily. If the serving was two, I would feel like I kind of got my money's worth, but not one. I'd never get that again. My husband got the 10-piece wings with half garlic parm and half lemon pepper. He said the wings were big and fried to perfection. He loved them. He also got fries. They were $4.00 for a pediatric serving size. Overall, the meal was very good. The main items were worth the price, but they really charge too much for the sides considering their size. I'd go back to support them, but please hold the sides...
