    Quesatacos are AMAZING! Mulitas are Delicious and so meaty. They are NOT stingy with the cheese or meat. So GOOD. Definitely recommend it!

    How am I just discovering Avenue 26 Tacos?! This spot is amazing and may have the best street tacos…read moreI've ever tried (and that says a lot because LA has so many good Mexican food options). I ordered the carne asada tacos and the brisket tacos and both were soooo delicious! They have a self serve toppings and salsa bar, so you can customize your tacos to what you liked. I'm a big fan of spicy foods and my tolerance to spice is pretty high, but the red salsa has a kick to it--so be warned. This spot is super casual but has a very large setup. Service here is very efficient and they are open 24/7 so there's no limit as to when you can get your taco fix. There's plenty of parking which gets extra points in my book, especially because that's typically hard to find in the area. There aren't any tables to eat at, but a lot of people ate standing or by their parked cars. If I could give this spot more than 5-stars I would. If you come here, trust me, you won't be disappointed.

    My friends have taken me here and every time it hits the spot. It's located in a parking lot and…read moremost of the time there is some parking available. It is a 24 hour spot so anytime I'm enjoying a night out I need a quick snack or a meal, I stop by here. Their lines go pretty quickly if you're visiting during meal times, but they have their whole set up to be as efficient as possible. When ordering, you'll go up and order your items I always get tacos, but I've heard the other items are delicious as well. You get one free potato per person and I highly recommend grabbing one. Once you grab your potato, you'll head over to the cashier while you'll pay for your items. If you want any drinks, you can order it as well. Once you're finished paying, they have a salsa bar with onions and cilantro and limes. My usual is their Al pastor tacos! It's a tried and true method for me. Note that there isn't any seating, most people stand up and eat or head back to their car and eat on their trunks or inside their car. There's trash cans all around and I believe there are some porta potties. It's a great spot to hit up if you're hungry and need some tacos in your life. Make sure you clean up after yourself. This is a great spot!

    Tacos, simple and executed to perfection…read more Steak is definitely the stand-out protein, but don't sleep on the barbacoa if you're coming on the weekend. I definitely had some FOMO not trying the queso tacos. Nevertheless nothing but good things to say, especially the service -- I forgot to get a barbacoa service and they were nice enough to add a complimentary one for me since the order was already in progress.

    100% BEST LA TACOS! There is a reason why they were on the 2026 Superbowl Halftime show…read more I recently did a taco tour and well VILLAS HIT IT OUT OF THE PARK! It is just favor, beyond flavor, beyond flavor. Yes the tacos Trios both meat or vegan, or just one taco is more pricey than the usual taco truck, but there is a reason. The portions! They are generous. The box is made of paper, not styrofoam. Cheese, yes please, but with or without it is great. The tacos are hand made blue corn tortilla, real guacamole, the cheese. They don't skimp, and with their Jamaica pink onion toppings that are sweet.... it just all goes together so well. A fiesta in you mouth just like the party going on inside the store. I do worry about the people cooking and working there. I hope they are wearing ear plugs or hearing protection because it is LOUD! Be prepared. The line goes fast, it is worth the wait. I LOVE VILLAS! they taste delicious, the ingredients are fresh... just BOMB Comparing to pool party taco man and tacos 1986 which I ate recently. Villas is the winner

I came here for dinner on a week night and my experience here was pretty good. I had the asada and al pastor tacos with all the toppings and they were both so good and full of meat and heat. The toppings can be spicy for some, so be warned. My favorite of the two was the all pastor which was flavorful and I did like the thinly shaved meat. It was not dry at all and was fresh. I also tried the mulita with al pastor meat and that was also soso good. Cheesy, meaty, and indulgent. The additional topping section had good variety with pickled onions, cucumbers, etc. and everything seemed pretty fresh. Unfortunately, they were pretty much out of the roasted pepper and grilled onions at the time I went. To drink, I had the horchata and that was also very delicious. It was huge, sweet, and creamy. I also loved how it was not grainy at all. A good pairing with the rich foods. They also have a good amount of seating at the stand with a long table and multiple chairs. Parking is tricky since its street parking only.

Expect a bit of a wait, but the line goes quickly! (We went on a Saturday night around 6pm and the wait was about an hour from line to receiving food.) What I ordered: - Scallop aguachile ($17) The scallops are so fresh and basically melts in your mouth (and they don't skimp!!). The lime/cilantro sauce is so bright and refreshing and acidic - Sea urchin + scallop ceviche ($28) Again both scallops + uni are sooo fresh. Idk how they keep the scallops super buttery and delicate which pairs so perfectly with the richness of the uni - Ceviche mixto ($23) Mix of shrimp + octopus + halibut. So flavorful, one of the best ceviches I've had - Taco de pulpo en su tinta ($8) Grilled octopus + squid ink sofrito taco. I personally was not a fan of the sofrito, but the octopus was grilled really nicely where the outside is charred but inside is still tender - Baja fish taco ($6) Fried fish taco was solid, no notes - Smoked kanpachi taco ($8) This was my least favorite dish and was a bit disappointing since everyone raves about this taco. It's def unique and flavorful, but the ingredients IMO didn't blend well (smoked fish, cheese, salsa, avocado, chili oil) Overall, for such fresh seafood, prices are pretty reasonable. I'd say the fresh/raw dishes are better than the tacos. If I go again, I'd get the grilled octopus entree and skip any tacos. Ceviche + aguachile would be a must reorder!

    I was looking for a taco spot with good reviews in the area and stumbled upon this gem of a taco…read morestand in the side of the road. These were truly the epitome of street tacos and absolutely nothing about the vibe, the service, and the FOOD, disappointed. Immediately upon arrival, I noticed the long line of people and said to myself, either this place is really good or really slow. It took me longer to decide what I wanted to try than what it took for the line to move and for it to be my turn to order. So yea, these folks are FAST and very courteous as well. They have real Al Pastor on the trompo (the spit) so of course I ordered pastor tacos and a pastor mulita. I also ordered a few SUADERO tacos which you don't find just anywhere. I am still raving about the amount of meat and flavor of the food here, it's insanely delicious. Once you get your food you make your way down to the end of the taco stand where you are met with an amazing array of fresh taco fixings and salsas. The pink creamy-habanero was the best and the green/red salsas followed right behind. I can't wait to go back to this place. It's mind blowing how a stand on the side of the road puts out better quality food than a brick/mortar taco shop..but these guys know exactly what they are doing and it was a pleasure to try their food. 20 out of 10 for this place.

I do like how they grill their meat though and they use the tortillas to scoop up the meat on the grill. Thought the al pastor was a bit salty and the cheese did not add much flavor to it, but that's probably a good thing considering the saltiness of the meat. Also, make sure you ask them for pineapples since they did not include it until we asked. They do have them sliced up in a container by the meats. Ambience is very casual and it's a stand while eating type of situation. Service was quick.
