    Carne asada sope
    Ruben B.

    The service was unexpectedly disappointing.The cashier was rude and just threw off the food experience for my second time trying this place out.

    We ate 14 tacos so fast they're so good here high quality meat

    Carmen and Jasmine had very good service today we really enjoyed the food nothing like the last time when the lady with short hair was rude to us this is the second time I got Jasmine and the first time was just as pleasant I will definitely be back!

    I'd go again. Very good food & service. Carne asada v juicy & tender.

    Asada is juicy & tender. Lively & friendly service. Francisco was very helpful with questions & recommendation as it was my first time here. Bathrooms are clean.

    Asada Fries
    Diana M.

    Every time I've driven past this place, it smells so delicious because they are grilling the meat outside. Today I decided to give them a try and I was absolutely worth it!! The service was helpful and attentive. I got the asada fries with sides of green salsa, grilled onion, and grilled jalapeños. The asada fries were super tasty and the meat was actual asada (not like other places where they just give ground beef), and the veggies on top were fresh. Absolutely delicious, I also appreciate bit of nacho cheese and real cheese.. This place is a hole in the wall and the quality of the food is much better than anything near by. I will definitely be back!!

    2 tacos de el pastor y 1 taco de chorizo

    This place is so delicious, they cook the meat fresh to order. Everything was fresh the tortillas were hand made. I also had a sope de asada and that was also amazing ! The girl at the cash register was very sweet and helpful. The space is little small but have more than plenty of seating and it was very very clean. Definitely coming back

    Al pastor tacos

    Found this new hidden gem, al pastor and asada were delicious. Hand made tortillas. Great customer service

    Delicious tacos de asada. The asada fries were perfectly made and crispy. Highly recommend this small family owned restaurant.

    The wife and I were craving some tacos, we heard some good things about tacos don goyo so we…read moredecided to try it out. We got there on a Friday at 12pm and when we arrived to the location, the parking was ridiculous, they do not have any parking for customers other than in a very small cul de sac which is French for a dead end. They have 1 parking spot for handicap. It is obvious that the neighboring houses complained to the city about their customers taking all the residential parking so they built a wall in the middle of the street, crazy right! Anyways, let's get into the food!!! So we got the tacos, 4 pastor and 4 asada and a horchata, came out to about $50. Pretty pricey, worth it? I don't know. The tacos were great, the asada has a char flavor and the pastor is freshly roasted and served with pineapple, the tortillas seemed to be made by hand as well and gave it that real authentic flavor. The horchata was a bit too sweet. I would recommend this place, but make sure you go when it is not busy. The staff were polite and helpful when ordering, they did not rush at all. They have 3 benches in the shade available to eat on. It is an outside dining in a clean environment.

    Great place to eat if you're in the Downey or LA area. I'd say it's one of the best taco spots--my…read morewife and I really love it. I highly recommend the tacos, especially the carne asada and al pastor--they're the best on the menu. I've tried the quesadillas, but they weren't as tasty, and the tripitas weren't the best either. For the best experience stick with carne asada and al pastor. They have about three small tables on the side to eat, but there's no parking or restroom available. Bring hand sanitizer and be ready to park wherever you can (without causing any trouble). It's the LA area, so parking is always a challenge. But don't let that stop you from trying these tacos. Cheers!

    Happy mother's day to all moms…read more After church brunch for my wife who's a mom. Bring her to one of her favorite places. Busy as usual and shout out to the young lady counter staff. Vibrant personality bilingual so knowledgeable. Basicly she's got this counter handled! Great customer service. Oh and she is wait staff as well My Wife ordered Birria tostada bowls and I went back to the wet burrito. Horchata is blended well. Hispanic music flowing makes a comfortable sit in. I may have mentioned before They are POS by clover. That have beer, bottled sodas and cans. That have a unisex restroom Small salsa bar. If you want consomé to go they have 3 sizes. They have high chairs as well. This place is hard to find just look in the left corner of the strip mall and there they are. If your in a rush be patient the food is made to order so that means it will take a few. This mom and pop prides themselves on good food that also do catering and today I have seen a lot of pick ups of trays of Birria Wow Tostada bowl is awesome well plated shell looks quality. My wet burrito is the bomb with avocado sliced on top. Haven't found a place to top this. Food taste fresh and good taste This establishment is clean and cozy yet booming. One of my wife's and I spots we recommend

I had ordered the birria plate and went to pack some salsa and pickled onions at the salsa bar. Food came out pretty quick which was great. The birria was good. It was very juicy and had a kick. There was a pretty big portion of meat too. The pickled onions were a great addition of flavor. The rice and beans were fine, but forgettable. I don't feel very impressed, but the whole meal was just decent. Overall the food was 3.5/5, but round up for the friendly service.

    Tacos Gavilán means "Taco Hawk" in English, so if you're a hawk for well made…read moretacos/mulitas/burritos or sopes set to a lively, thrumming soundtrack of South American music all at reasonable prices...then make like their namesake hawk and dive bomb your way to this restaurant! Your favorite Yelp correspondent was in the Downey area for a medical appointment when hunger pangs happily coincided w/ my need to kill a little time for traffic to abate. I ordered a mulita asada, a pair of asada tacos, my obligatory Diet Coke and a flan. The latter item would make my wife and doctor cringe because of my diabetes...So I ordered it solely for research, to give you fellow Yelpers an appraisal. My doctor and wife will be pleased to know I only sampled two bites of the flan. Tacos Gavilán features a well-provisioned self serve bar, brimming with all manner of flavorful sides. From refried beans to queso to finely minced onions y cilantro and multiple salsas, there's no shortage of items that'll elevate your order to Flavortown. The service is quick and friendly. The caliber of the food is good, tho not stellar. Certainly will fill you up and that's all you can or should expect at their (reasonable) prices The flan, made for Tacos Gavilán by a company called Flan-Tastic, is, true to its manufacturer, fantastic. Super moist, drenched in caramel with a bouncy, jello-like consistency. ALMOST as good as my best friend Mick's Cuban wife makes for special occasions. For my entree, two tacos, medium fountain beverage and dessert I spent $19.95, incl taxes.
