    Sope and taco
    Jeff K.

    i'm so glad i stumbled upon this place when i was up in monrovia. I know when the brewery across the street is open, lots of people come here to get food. Anyways, this place is dirt cheap for the amount of food you get. They have dollar tacos on tuesdays. They have delicious and cheap sopes. They have burritos for 7 bucks, and you can pick from a variety of meats. (chicken, lengua, al pastor, barbacoa, carnitas, buche, chorizo, tripas, carne asada... etc) They are typically parked right across the Monrovia Fire Station on Myrtle street.

    Tasty tacos and plan to try more food ! Price is very reasonable. I got there early right after six just opening, there was no line.

    Barbacoa (lamb) and al pastor!
    Martin K.

    This taco truck might not look bright and colourful like the other taco trucks in the area, but this $1 Taco Tuesday coming out of this small, two-man operation is surely unbeatable! When there aren't too many Mexican restaurants nearby in this neighbourhood, this late night joint easily fills in that role with a dependable quality of tacos. The traditional menu offers sope and torta, but what stands out is the barbacoa. Few food trucks offer lamb slowly cooked in barbacoa style; at $1.50 for a taco barbacoa, the soft and tender lamb flavour naturally beats out all the other meat selections for me. With a really easygoing and friendly attitude, the welcoming service here already urges me back here again next Tuesday! Situated right across from the fire station on Myrtle, this unassuming taco truck is a convenient destination in late night.

    I was hungry and this was close to me and it hit the spot! The truck was located about a block north of the directions given on Google (2062 S Myrtle Ave). It was parked on a long, wide, not particularly busy street. When I went at 9:30pm, it was very easy to just pull up behind the truck. In the 20 minutes that I was there, about seven other parties came up to get tacos which I thought was a surprisingly high number of people considering what a random location we were in. It was taco Tuesday!!! $1 tacos!!! Tacos hit the spot. It's not like ... WAIT IN LINE tacos. But there's barely a line! The people are friendly, they give a huge helping of radishes, GIANT limes, and cucumber slices. They had three little plastic stools available for sitting. We were the only people to sit and eat. There was a trash can next to the food truck.

    Perfect place to get your TACO TUESDAY ON!!! They have tacos for 1$ on tuesdays! We love their all meat tacos. Their pork is actually crispy and so delicious!

    Support small businesses! This taco truck hangs out on Myrtle at nights. They have all your taco needs, including dollar tacos on tuesdays!

    $1 taco Tuesday.  Pretty decent tacos.  Salsas were really good.  They had a habanero salsa which was good and extra hot.

I ordered ahead of time while I shopped at Trader Joe's down the street and by the time I was done, my order was ready for pick up. The waitress was extremely friendly and had everything set up and ready to go. The place itself is a small divey bar/cantina, a super hole in the wall place with parking in the back and street parking in the front. It is easy to access though if you enter from the back you have to go down a sort of creepy open air hallway of different businesses to get to them. The price was very reasonable for Mariscos and my husband the Aguachile connoisseur actually liked them. I tasted them and the shrimp felt fresh not tough or chewy. So 5 stars for La Sexy Miche!

I think he was hoping the shrimps would be bigger. Unsure if he will be ordering in the future. Overall, great place for ceviche and happy hour beers. My only note is that the service was really lacking and inattentive. One of the waitresses was on their phones and standing around throughout her shift. She looked bothered when we flagged her down to ask for and collect the check. Other than the mediocre service, it was a decent experience. Overall, I would ask for take out next time I return.

One time I ordered 4 tacos, 1 burrito, a drink and churros and it took them longer than 25 minutes to be ready. The people who dined in that were behind me in line were served first. This defeats the purpose of takeout... also they burnt the heck out of my churros and still have them to me like that. Their employees are rude especially the girl with the fake red hair. She' s vulgar talking to coworkers instead of customers and a rude attitude. She was rude with an attitude when asked her about drink prices (not on the menu) and a question about the salsa bar . She made me feel like I was a bothering her after spending over $50 in their establishment. The way she behaves makes you think she owns the business. Another thing is that they don't listen or pay attention to your order. Both in person and for delivery they end up messing up your order. It was simple no onions on 3 tacos and they always mess up my son's food. Now I have an angry and hungry little kid on top of the experience. I keep going back because their food is good and kind of hope to have a better experience. I don't I'll go back, it's a shame but it's not worth it anymore. Gave this place many chances to support a small business but they don't reciprocate the love back. This place could be a 5 star but their employees hinder the restaurant back from being that.

Unfortunately, the wait time for the food was much longer than expected considering how slow it seemed. Some items came out hot, but my taco plate was only warm. The food itself wasn't horrible, but overall it was a bit bland. The sauces definitely helped, but sauces should enhance the flavor, not be the main source of it. I also don't want to single anyone out, so I'll just say the overall staff energy wasn't very welcoming. I actually stopped by about a week ago just to pick up desserts and experienced a similar vibe then too. I'm honestly bummed to leave a negative review because I wanted to like this place, but between the wait, lack of flavor, and unwelcoming atmosphere, I'll probably not return.

Everything looked so clean, well-organized, and inviting. The restaurant itself is lovely, with plenty of seating for a party of one or many.

Employees were very friendly, polite, hard-working, and engaging. The food was absolutely delicious! I had the "Martha Salad" while my wife had the Pozole Verde.

The margaritas were honestly some of the worst we've had -- they tasted like straight margarita mix blended with ice, and we could barely drink them. The enchiladas were also very underwhelming, especially for the price. It was basically shredded chicken in tortillas with sauce, rice, and beans, and for $20 it just wasn't worth it. The food tasted very Americanized and lacked authentic Mexican flavor and seasoning. That being said, the customer service was amazing. The two ladies who helped us were incredibly attentive, kind, and kept checking on us. They offered extra drinks and multiple items, which we normally appreciate because when we go to Mexican restaurants we usually order multiple rounds and end with Cadillac margaritas. Unfortunately, the drinks were so bad we didn't want to order anything else, but their effort and service did not go unnoticed. One small disappointment was when I asked for hot sauce to add more flavor to my green sauce enchiladas, and I was brought the same red enchilada sauce instead, which made the meal worse. I am a food and beverage manager myself, and I can honestly say I would hire those two servers in a heartbeat because they were fabulous. The service was excellent -- it's just the food and drinks that really need improvement.
