    This has become my go-to spot for Mexican food. Orders that never fail me: - Street tacos ($2.59 ea): good standard sized taco - Tacos Dorados de Birria($8.99 for 3): so flavorful, just get it. - Asada Nachos ($11.49): this is the perfect sharing item on the menu, I'd say it's shareable amongst 2-3 people. I love these nachos over other spots because it is jam packed with flavor and they do not skimp on toppings (especially onions and cilantro). - Agua de Pina: just size up and share since it's only a dollar difference between a medium and large! Service can be hit or miss, but I will always come back because the food just speaks for itself.

    Ordered online. Ordered 3 queso birria tacos for my son. We got regular crunchy tacos with the meat inside. They were not dipped and fried in the birria sauce. Went in to ask if they could fix it and all they did was refried them in oil. Horrible

    Finally got to try this new Tacos El Goloso location. Delicious food, fresh and flavorful. The Carne Asada is excellent, the al pastor is on the sweet side. I love the consome. Service is excellent, fast, and efficient. The inside dining is small but clean. Most customers order takeout.

    Grand opening day with a live band!

    Sooo this place opened a couple of days ago and it's amazing! FINALLY we have authentic Mexican food after Chile Verde no longer is here! They ended up keeping some of their past workers like the kick ass Josh and others!!! Their grand opening was dope because they had a live band playing Mexican music literally all damn day and night to promote their company!!!! I had their Tacos Dorados De Birria meal that came with fresh chips on the side and salsa. I loved it! If you've been to the El Golosos in LBC and Torrance, then you will know how great their food is. The parking is free and cool because it's in a huge strip mall next to an Albertsons, GameStop, Starbucks, etc. Angie and Mona stand out as well with their kick ass customer service and they let me as well as others know what to get if we have a brain fart of confusion of what we are craving. Phenomenal customer service, clean place and they are all so well organized! Everyone here works hard and it shows in how well this place is run! Definitely coming back more and more to try everything else on their menu! Great job! 5 stars because I'm not one of those Yelpers who will write a positive review with NO negative, but NOT give a flawless 5!!!

    Potato tacos dorado

    I was happy to hear when this place opened because I was driving further to the Harbor City location. The cashier was very pleasant and greeted me as I walked in. The place was clean and everyone working appeared busy even though no other customers were present. I ordered my usual, potato tacos dorado. They were fried nice and crunchy. Toppings were fresh and it comes with the birria sauce. I won't say the tacos are very seasoned or birria sauce the most flavorful. But, I can enjoy this item without fail since I am a pescatarian. Horchata is good but on the (very) sweet side. The cashier suggested adding a bit of water when I got home since I chose to keep the drink. I'll be back...

    tacos dorados de birria
    Yery J.

    great birria tacos! i've been to tacos el goloso every time i miss mexico and their tacos dorados de birria always makes me feel better. can't say much about the interior since i always take out but they did have a lot of seating when i picked up my food. i honestly haven't tried their other menus so i can't say if their other menus are great but from their birria tacos, i can say that the tacos are juicy, the ratio of cheese and meat is good, and their complimentary chips are great as well~

    Went to Carson location and I was highly disappointed. I ordered the carne asada fries. Before I left I opened my food and was extremely shocked by the food they gave me to make matters worse as I was looking at my food the entire cooking staffed watched me and make me even more uncomfortable and no one should ever be treated like this. This established need zero stars and even thats to nice in my opinion. I will not be going back.

    I see nopales on the menu! Location is easy to find in the Albertson's & Home Depot shopping center near Sepulveda & Dolores. Parking is abundant in a private lot, street parking is also available. Located across from the star.bucks store. Staff is busy working hard, professional. Parking is abundant in a private lot. There is also street parking along Sepulveda. Interior has plenty of tables for small groups & a counter. Exterior also has tables available. No customer WC & thus the reason I cannot give this place 5 stars.

    Three tacos dorados de birria combo, delicious five star for me

    Great service,and the food is a 10 out of 10.the consome is amazing. Coming back no doubt, beats teddys red tacos. Someone argue with me. Haha.

    Was hungry after the game and was craving some tacos.. My daughter told me about the new spot in Carson so decided to try it out. The service was great and my daughter did the yelp reviews for a free drink. She got the horchata and she said was very good. They had indoor and outdoor seating but we got ours to go. Not many people dining in but had quite a few to go orders while i was there. A very chill spot for some good food. We had the Birria tacos, carne asada street tacos and the mulitas pastor.. Delicious will definitely come back to try more stuff off of their menu.

The vibe was really off. The place is nice and clean and appealing but there was no music playing. They had on naked and afraid and some news on their TVs. We were the only people there so the place was so quiet and boring. The lady was very polite, but it just wasn't a "fun environment". The food came out at all different times which was weird because we were the only ones there. I'm always trying to find somewhere close to go hang out and invite friends to have drinks and eat but it was just so off I wouldn't want to go back with friends. Food- I had the fish taco which was good, the calamari was very chewy and not that good, and the enchiladas were decent Service - Service was good (flys were coming in tho so I think they should keep the door closed) Ambiance- lacking. They need some fun music and give me a reason to order some beer and hangout more. I don't really see this as anything other than a takeout place unless they extend their hours and improve the vibe.

We asked if they had any plant-based or vegan options. They only sold burgers however the lady that helped us was very sweet, polite, and kind. She told what they had and what we could order inside instead. We walked in and the gentleman named Oscar G. cashed us out. He was also very friendly! Very professional and knowledgeable about the menu and non-dairy items. Provided us with what we needed right away, the container for the salsa and brought out fresh ones for me. Very nice guy. The food came out right away. The portions were big in my opinion. The prices were decent, the portion was great, and best of all the service was good. Their self-serve condiments was a PLUS! I've been to a lot of taco spots and these were by far the freshest and crispiest cucumbers, fresh cold salsa, onions and cilantro was also fresh. The food was good and filled us up. It was simple but fulfilling. Will definitely be back and highly recommend it. There are plenty of indoor and outdoor seats as well.

I ordered the asada, carnitas, al pastor, tripas, cabeza, and lengua. The asada was tender with a nice grilled flavor, but my favorites were definitely the tripas and cabeza. Both were a little greasy, but in a good way--they had a lot of flavor and were probably the standouts of the meal for me. One thing I liked was the condiment bar. You can load up your tacos with as much onion and cilantro as you want, plus they have radishes and lime wedges available. They also offer two salsas, a red and a green. Both tasted good and had solid flavor, although I was hoping for a little more heat. Overall, it's a solid taco spot, especially on Taco Tuesday. Good variety of meats, reasonable prices, and plenty of toppings to customize your tacos. I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area and craving some tacos.

They used to let you pick from more choices years ago but free is free right? I chose the number 4 which is a tamale with beans and rice. My wife ordered their chicken tortilla soup which has been a longtime favorite. The size of the bowl has diminished about 30% from what I remember but that's been a common theme the past few years in many places so oh well. We also ordered a side of chicken taquitos which came with a generous amount of sour cream and guacamole. The food was very good overall although the chunks of beef in my tamale were dry. I prefer chicken but unfortunately they were out. I should have asked for pork but didn't think about it till later. Our server was very helpful and just a sweet, thoughtful young lady. The gentleman bussing tables was also friendly and considerate. Prices have definitely gone up but those are the times in which we live. There is street parking and an underground parking garage a short distance away. There are quite a few restaurants in the area so parking can be a little challenging.

The rice made you want to gag, I don't think a stray dog would eat it. Lastly my meal, enchiladas. I mean, come on how do you eff that up?! The cheese wasn't melted, the tortilla was raw and needed to be heated (or fried) Either way save your money, and take the drive up to another well known spot.
