    Love this business! Best tacos EVER! I first tried the tacos when my friend invited me to Progress Brewing and shared one with me. I couldn't get them off my mind so I figured out who they were and realized they were serving at one of my favorite breweries the following week. Ever since then I've been following them wherever they go and I'd be lying if I said I don't impatiently wait for them to post their schedule up every week on instagram. I even go to one of my least favorite breweries to just eat their tacos. Their sauces are bomb, their tacos are amazing and the owners are awesome! Definitely recommend.

    We had several delicious tacos at the Tacos La Bomba pop-up restaurant in front of MacCleod's Brewery in Van Nuys. The brothers use their mom's technique of dipping the tortillas in red chili sauce before grilling them. This imparts a rich smoky taste to the taco. My friends enjoyed the shredded chicken and carne asada tacos covered with a nice pile of onions, cilantro, and cabbage (customers can help themselves to these toppings.) According to my friends, the meat was tender and free from fat and gristle, which unfortunately plague many street tacos. I had the vegan/vegetarian tacos-- one filled with homemade soyrizo, and the other with potatoes and zucchini. Both were great (not too oily and not bland at all.) We were all hungry, so we appreciated the generous portions. We were pleasantly surprised by the low, low prices ($7 for 4 plump tacos.) They offer 3 different salsas in squeeze bottles: the red one was very spicy, and the green one was a citrusy tomatillo blend that was just perfect. I didn't try the yellow salsa.) There was no pico de gallo, but nobody missed it. These are authentic street tacos without any gourmet pretentiousness , and that was reflected in the low price and traditional flavor. They went perfectly with the beer. Check the MacCleod's Brewery website for nights when this pop-up taco vender will be there.

    I read the reviews that said that it was BEHIND So Cal Pizza. I still was a little leery when we were getting there because as you are driving alongside at the building you're thinking, "It can't be back here." And then you turn the corner and BAM! There are kids skateboarding, a line of parked cars to match the line of people waiting next to the pop-up tent where they were busy making tacos, burritos, mulitas, and quesadillas. I will give them that their signature dipped and grilled tortillas are different. I didn't really notice a big difference in the taste though. Their meat was good and I did enjoy my food. I liked that it wasn't really greasy. The other thing that makes this better than most of your other taco stands/trucks is that they have some type of agreement with So Cal Pizza where you can walk in through the back door and eat inside the establishment. It's probably because most people go in and buy sodas and/or beer. It's not the end all be all of taco stands, but it is definitely worth a go. Sidenote: They are only at this location in Norwalk on Tuesday nights from 5pm to approximately 9pm. You follow them on Instagram (@tacoslabomba) to keep up-to-date on where they are and what their hours will be.

    When your bestie is down for an adventure you try your best to find a taco Tuesday spot that will live up to our adventures!!!! And Lord behold you find the diamond in the rough!!!! Even more so they totally live up to their name cause the food way Fu*ken bomb! we got the "La Bomba Grande" that gave us a little (huge) taste of what they got going. The meats or cooked to what seems like perfection and the young man that's the pen has just a cool vibe down to earth that made the whole experience even better. Each of the meats the tortillas and damn that secret sauce !!!!! Even his different salsa's complement ppl that can't have too hot, to one with a good sizzle ! Over all I would totally come back, we finally found a spot in my home town of Norwalk that's worth going too every Tuesday!!! Lol I'm all for some Mulitas

    Two carne asada and two pollo tacos

    I think I found my new favorite taco stand! These tacos are full of flavor and the meat was cooked perfectly. The guy dips the tortillas in a special red sauce then heats them. The pollo and carne asada tacos were delicious. You can add your own toppings (shredded cabbage, cilantro, or/and onions). There's three sauces: mild green tomatillo, an orange sauce that has a mild kick, and a spicy sauce in a red bottle that's only for the brave. I like to taste my food and enjoy it so I didn't touch the hot sauce. Some people like to sweat in pain and only taste heat. That's not me, but enjoy if that's your thing! They also offer chorizo as a meat option as well as queasdillas. You can get 4 tacos for $5 or get the whole shebang (tacos, mulita, and a quesadilla) for $10. Of course you can always order separately if you just want a little taste. I also had a carne asada mulita. It's meat and cheese smack in the middle of the famous red tortillas. You can choose your own toppings. Love it! Now let's talk about location: they are partnered with SoCal Pizza. The stand is behind the building so you'll have to drive around to the back. You are free to sit inside SoCal Pizza and order your drinks there since there are no drinks at the stand. It's also during happy hour! You can make it a party and add pizza and alcohol if you please! They are open from 5pm-9pm on Tuesdays only in Norwalk and they have a second location they travel to in Van Nuys every other Monday and every Wednesday. \(^-^)/

    2 tacos and a bombita w/ cilantro and onion. With some lemons and chips.

    I love when they come to Progress, I get to have a beer with some bomb tacos. They have the best tasting tacos with the tortillas flavored perfect in a red kinda sauce. I always get Asada Bombitas, there like mini quesadillas with meat. They have a great tasting spicy salsa selection. The green is delicious but I can't get enough of the red super spicy salsa. It burns my mouth so good, I love it.

    Everyone loved Tacos La Bomba

    Food is delicious and staff nice and hard working. Was a total hit of the party. Had many guest give their Compliments.

    Carne asada quesadilla, chorizo mulita and carne asada tacos
    Aracely E.

    Came across this business on Yelp and the reviews are right on. Tacos and mulita were delicious with that red sauced, lightly fried tortilla, topped of with a familiar yet different slaw and the tangy salsas. Will definitely be back.

    I love it here!! Its a sit down but casual place, very modern seating but fun artwork and decor…read more I always get the shredded beef burrito and they are always kind about my modifications. BIG portions and tasty. My husband has gotten the carne asada plate often and it is SO flavorful with a good grill taste too. Ive gotten it myself too. They have a spicy but addicting salsa with their chips. They have great spanish rice! Everyone is always friendly and attentive.

    The atmosphere was extremely dark -- almost too dark. The restaurant itself is small and narrow,…read morewhich gives it the feel of a dim alleyway, decorated with colorful Mexican festive banners hanging overhead. Some people may enjoy that style, but for me it felt overly dark and somewhat cramped. The service was okay. Nothing particularly good or bad stood out. As for the food, based on previous reviews, I expected something above average or even excellent. That really was not the case. If you regularly eat authentic Mexican food, the food here is simply okay. It is not bad, but it is also not especially good. I ordered the combination plate with two tacos, one enchilada, rice, and beans. The other person ordered one enchilada, one taco, rice, and beans. Since we eat Mexican food frequently, we have a solid idea of what good Mexican food should taste like. The food here was decent enough to eat, but nothing memorable. One thing I did not appreciate was the pricing structure. The menu combinations appear one way at first, but if you choose a meat other than ground beef, there is an additional charge of one or two dollars depending on the item. The restaurant does disclose this, but only in fine print, so make sure to read carefully before ordering. Overall, I probably would not return because I know what genuinely good Mexican food tastes like. However, if you did not grow up eating Mexican food regularly, you may enjoy this place much more than I did. It may appeal more to people who are less familiar with authentic Mexican cuisine. Also, to be fair, I did not try the burritos, so those could potentially be better.
