    Halft a charbroiled chicken, rice, beans and cheese
    Dee E.

    Whoooo! I must say I am so very pleased and just so satisfied with everything I just experienced at this spot! From the moment we stepped up Alex was very genuine in the way he greeted us. Made us feel welcome. Right away began telling us the menu, even offered and served me a sample of buche meat. Margarita showed me all of the different salsas, veggies and drinks they offered. Vey kind, patient and accommodating. My husband was surprised to hear they served shrimp tacos. So he ordered a few of those. What made it better was the mango salsa they have. These tacos were so good! Specially with the weather here in LA! They serve charbroiled chicken, steak, carnitas, buche they even have potato and cheese tacos. They've really thought of everything. Including the drinks. Today they were serving a limeade and had a very good variety of bottled and canned drinks. Jarritos are literally the best with tacos! Pricing couldn't be better. The quality is excellent. The food is delicious, very well seasoned. What I mean by that is it's not overly or under seasoned. I hate having to add salt to my food. And what I loved the most was that the meat is not sitting in lard. I for one am not a fan of that. I got half a chicken to go. They served it with tortillas, rice and bean. They even put cheese on the beans, I also got a couple of salsas and cilantro and onion. Love love love it!! For that I paid $15. This was literally a meal for 2 and it only cost half the price! They have a very clean area with tables and chairs. Parking isn't really an issue. I so happy to have found this place. I'm picky when it comes to tacos, and this place made my day!

    Not a bad spot to grab a quick meal. Look for the purple wall and you've found it. We ended up getting a carne asada burrito, a pork belly taco, and a carnitas taco. Overall, pricing was fair, and the food was made on the spot. Although the tacos were a wee bit on the small side, I would recommend the carnitas, made crunchy, and pass on the pork belly. And definitely load up on the mango salsa... it's the star of the show.

    Man what can I say this place is the bomb Amazing food but more importantly amazing customer service who care and love what they do to serve their customers to provide top quality restaurant experience.

    Agua Fresca and tacos

    Fire tacos, fire people, fire prices. 6 tacos and a agua Fresca for 27 bucks and a good attitude. Good people and good service, would come back.

    My big order of food

    These tacos are some of the best I have ever had in LA. They are so tasty and alex gives you a good portion of meat that beats other spots. Alex is very fast and attentive to your orders and gives it his all when he makes your order. Great that he also has salsa, and other toppings available and easy to grab. Prices are fair and can feed a family and still have left overs. We got 20 tacos and a quesadila. My picture is an example of how much is left over after a family of 4 ate.

    Tacos de buche y carnitas con agua de piña
    Joanna M.

    First time here! Tacos de carnitas y tacos de buche is what I ordered. Both delicious! Luckily I just started working in the are so I'll be coming back. The prices, service, and eating area are great. Try the agua fresca!

    Carnitas were bomb and they were so sweet. They let me sample the meat before choosing:) highly recommend!

    Really bomb taco / chicken spot. I got a whole chicken and Alex made it crispy and juicy at the same time. Highly reccommend this place

It was my first time here, so I wasn't sure where to go at first, but it's pretty easy to figure out. They have separate lines for tacos, burritos, and aguas frescas, which keeps everything organized and moving smoothly. I went straight for the tacos. I ordered two carne asada, one chorizo, and one al pastor. The condiment setup was also really good. Let me tell you, this hit the spot! I loved the grilled onions, serranos, hot sauce, and especially the curtido de habanero,so good. The carne asada was okay slightly on the tougher side but the chorizo and al pastor were really solid.

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.

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!

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.

The seafood is insanely fresh, the flavors are bright and clean, and you can taste how much care goes into every detail. The ceviches and tostadas are my go-tos but honestly l've never had something here I didn't love. Everything is beautifully plated, super vibrant, and the portions are perfect for sharing (though you'll definitely want to order more than you think). It's light but still satisfying, and I always leave feeling. good, not heavy. Pro tip! If you don't feel like waiting in the long line (which can get wild), here's the move: skip it and head straight to the counter. If there's an open seat, grab it and order right there. You'll get your food way faster, and in my opinion it's the best seat in the house. You get to watch the team plate everything with so much precision-it's lowkey mesmerizing. You'll feel like you're part of the action and the food always comes out hot and fresh. Holbox is inside Mercado La Paloma, which already has a fun energy, but this spot is the star for me.

I like that they were open late to satisfy a late night taco craving. Even though there is typically a line they are quite efficient with orders and even have a parking lot/outdoor dining space in addition to their indoor space so it doesn't feel cramped. It was my first visit so I had to get a mix of their tacos and burritos with the various meats they serve. It was a nice fact to know their tortillas have some lard also so it adds a nice flavor as well. + Burrito 2.0 (asada) + Chivichanga (chicken and beef) + Tacos (chorizo, tripe, cabeza, asada) I enjoyed the burrito with asada and thought it was good portion size for the cost. The guac, cheese, and beans pair well with the meat and has a nice grill on the tortilla. The tacos were a solid size as well but I was surprised to find the tripe as my favorite because they fry it and it adds a nice crunch/texture change. The cabeza was a close second with the stewed flavors. The chivichangas were also tasty but not the traditional chimichanga I was anticipating. It's definitely on the softer side as everything mixes together and there's not much of a texture change. Worth trying if you are curious though. I ordered to go so I didn't see if they have a salsa bar but I did have to pay $.10 per to go container which would be nice if they were free. However, I liked mixing their red and green salsa with each bite. I am curious to try their avocado salsa next time. Overall, I thought the portion sizes were good for the prices and I felt full afterwards.
