two tacos on a paper plate
Niki n.

My husband and I just stopped off at this taco stand off national Boulevard. Their El pastor Was amazing! We ordered a torta and their street tacos. The torta was insane. It was filled with meat, cheese, And beans. One of the best things I've ever had. I highly recommend. Great prices and quality.

$1 tacos and massive $6 burritos!

This place is amazing. I've driven past a few times and on Monday I finally thought, why not give these guys a try. Boy, I wasn't disappointed!!!!!! This is my new favorite Taco stand. The guys are so friendly and welcoming! The al Pastor is amazing, it what I look for when getting an al Pastor taco. I like crispy but soft and packed with flavor! The carne Asada is cooked on a charcoal grill to the side so it's packed with that charcoal taste, which is the only way Carne Asada should be made! No exceptions! Not on the comal, not on the griddle but over charcoal so you get the most flavor! Now... here's the kicker! All these tacos will only run you $1 each! Yessssss seriously $1! You don't find that on the Westside so this little not so hidden gem is amazing. On Tuesdays they've got a taco Tuesday deal, but 5 tacos or 5 of anything you get 1 drink free, and mulitas are 2 for $5, Tuesdays only. I've got no pictures of my food because I always scarf it down. I saw a burrito and it was so full of meat that it was bursting and I overheard the guys say "this place always comes through". It's so true!!! Give them a try! Pull into the Ross parking lot and get yourself a taco el Nando!!

Some of the best street tacos I've had in LA. Very short wait and if there is a line it's worth it. I'm here at least once a week. $4 for dinner? Say less

Good tacos and great prices! $1 per taco is a steal! And the drinks are also really good. My favorite ones are the pastor and asada!

What a great find. Fantastic Al pastor and the portions are insane for the burritos. Very fresh and very tasty. Highly recommend.

Incredible food and amazingly fast, friendly service even when there is a line! You have to order…read morethe "Angel's Potato"--it is a perfectly tender baked potato absolutely loaded with butter, melted cheese, and their famous al pastor. It is incredibly delicious and even comes with fresh handmade tortillas on the side so you can make your own tacos out of it. 10/10 highly recommend!

AMAZING food! Visited twice so far (latest: May 2026), and had the queso burrito with carne asada…read moreboth times. I've been meaning to try the other items on their menu, but it was so good the first time that I had to order it again. The portions are *very* generous, and they had the usual sides readily available on the side: lemons, cucumbers, sliced radish, grilled onions and peppers, etc. Also had a bite of their corn quesadilla... the tortilla was soooo good. They had the masa on the side and were making the tortillas fresh and by hand. Yum. Payment: - They take Apple pay! :) Parking: - We found street parking nearby thankfully, but it might be hard to find in general due to the area. Seating: - They have seating to the left of their grill (tables, folding chairs, a tarp overhead). Depending on the time of day, sometimes the shade doesn't quite cover your face--the sun was setting and hitting us right in the eyes, so we switched sides to sit facing away from the sun once those seats were available.

I delayed writing this review to really think through, and now I will confidently say--these are…read moreeasily the best tacos I've ever had. Having been to so many taco stands, I think what makes Tire Shop Taqueria really stand out are the right-off-the-grill charcoal-grilled meats, the freshly made tortillas literally in front of you as you are waiting on line, and the free guacamole that comes with each taco. The ordering process is like any other taco stand, though one difference is here the salsas/guacamole are all handled by the staff. If you'd like more of something, just ask them instead of reaching for the ladle yourself. There is a separate area though for grilled onions/peppers and radishes you can serve yourself. I got the asada, chorizo, cabeza, and al pastor, and they were all so good. The asada and chorizo are specifically grilled over charcoal, and that flavor really shines through. I loved how meaty and tender the cabeza was too, and the classic al pastor hit the spot. They have large communal tables setup, so it is a great friendly vibe to enjoy your meal I will say, the surrounding area is not the best in LA, especially given how the taco stand is only open at night. The parking lot is quite small, so I parked on a side street that had some abandoned cars, but of course, if you are in/from LA, this is not that new for us. I would hesitate if I am a tourist though to make it out here. Anyhow, the food really is worth it here, and I can't wait to be back!

Yummy Tijuana style tacos! We stopped by after leaving an event near DTLA. I've seen so many good…read morereviews of this place, I was excited to try after bookmarking it for awhile. We found easy street parking in the neighborhood on 41st Street, and waited in line for about 15-20 minutes. We ordered the asada tacos. They pre-sauce your tacos, which was fine by me, but my boyfriend who can't handle as much spice would've preferred it on the side (so warning for anyone similar! they do put a little habanero on them, so just ask them for salsa on the side). I think I ran into a problem of reading too many raving reviews -- these tacos were good but I was expecting them to be mind blowing, so I was a little disappointed. I tasted the charcoal char, but kind of wished the taste was more pronounced, or at least the meat more seasoned. The hand made tortillas were definitely the coolest part, but I thought they were a little dry too. The ladies whipping those out are artists though. Actually, all the workers here have the assembly line down to the tea, and they definitely add a little flare for a show. I particularly liked how they had a lot of seating at this location, instead of just a couple stools lying around like most taco trucks. It felt more like outdoor patio seating than a normal taco stand. They could probably take more time to wipe down tables more often though. Overall would visit again if in the area, but wouldn't go out of my way for the tacos here.

Came here late one night driving back from an event since I've only heard good things…read more I got 2 tacos (asada and cabeza, 1 pollo quesadilla, a bean and cheese burrito and small bag of chips and guac. Everything came out to about $26 which is super reasonable! Service on a later end of the night was great! Super friendly and quick service. No indoor dining was available since they were closing in 15 mins. Food was ready in less than 10 mins. Salsa is free which both were delicious and had great flavor. Overall the food was delicious! It hit the spot. Filled with meat and the tortillas were a hit on their own. I would definitely go back again and try the other items that they had to offer.

I feel like I must be missing something? I've seen Sonoratown on so many lists and guides for best…read moreMexican so we finally decided to check it out. We ordered just a couple tacos - one asada and one tripa, based on reading numerous recommendations that those are what to get here. $3.50 a taco which is not bad for a restaurant taco. It's a cool casual vibe here. Seating inside as well as the patio. They have tasty looking horchata and other agua frescas. Colorful walls. They bring your food out to you by calling your name. The tacos were loaded with a pretty decent amount of meat and toppings. But sadly we were far from impressed by the flavor. The asada was okay and better than the tripa, but it paled in comparison to our go-to taco trucks in the area which only costs $1. And the tripa was strange to eat in taco form. The tripa is crunchy small pieces so it just feels odd to eat in a taco. Maybe if it was just served as an appetizer to eat by itself, but even then, it kinda just feels like you're eating pellets. Don't see the hype unfortunately.
