Was checking out plants at Silva Wholesale Nursery (check them out too!!) and they said we had to come here for lunch. They said their dad comes here almost everyday, if that's not a good sign, I don't know what would be! When we came in the young man at the cash register was so friendly and welcoming. He helped us choose our order and answer any questions we had. While we were waiting he brought us some water and explained the differences in the hot sauces, so nice! The ambiance was very clean, homey, and welcoming. There was beautiful hand painted art on the walls and colorful tables. A beautiful, albeit smallish on the inside. Looking at their menu, they do offering catering if you have a large party! The wait was very short for the food and it was so good!! I got the loaded fries with everything and it was fresh, hot, and actually loaded down with meat beans cheese guacamole tomato and I also got jalapeño on mine. Sour cream was on the side and was the thick kind which I prefer rather than the thin crème. We also ordered the taco combo which came with rice and beans, also delicious! Everything was hot and fresh and they were so, so nice. Highly recommend! read more

Came here with my family and ordered birria combo, queso birria tacos, tacos de asada and alpastor, an horchata and agua de fresa. I must say, everything was delicious. My family and I loved everything. We are definitely coming back. We just came to buy donuts next door and saw this place. read more

This is one of the best Mexican restaurants in Sylmar and that's saying something since Sylmar, CA is full of quality Mexican restaurants. I love Tacos Mi Rincon Tapatio's burritos and tacos. Especially their al pastor and carnitas. When I'm especially starving I order the burrito and taco combo. It comes with rice and beans and a side salad. I feel so satisfied after eating here. The service is fast and courteous. The ambiance makes you feel like the food you're getting is authentic Mexican cuisine. read more

If you're a menudo lover, this spot is a must. The menudo here is hands down one of the best I've had rich, flavorful, and made the right way. The broth has that deep, authentic taste you can tell comes from hours of slow cooking, and it's perfectly seasoned without being overpowering. The tripe is tender and clean (no weird smell or chewiness), and they don't skimp on portions either. Add some fresh onions, cilantro, oregano, and a squeeze of limón, and it hits exactly how it should. You can tell they take pride in making it traditional something that's not easy to get right since menudo is known for being a dish that takes time and skill to perfect. Overall, great comfort food, especially on a cold morning or when you need that perfect hangover cure. Don't forget to wash it down with a cold Mexican coca-cola read more

Been coming here for a long time. I'm embarrassed it's taken me so long to write a review! It's very good food. The food is so juicy and full of flavor even what you would think is a simple food item. Not to mention the friendliest service you can ask for! You definitely feel appreciated when you come here. Ps I love the style of the restaurant itself. Real authenticity. read more

After a long day at a volleyball tournament, we found this gem just 1 mile from where we were...And it didn't disappoint. Since it was a Saturday, I opted to get their menudo and it was phenomenal! A big bowl of gelatinous goodness. It came in a huge bowl that could have fed two to three persons. I opted not to get any tortillas and glad that I didn't or else I would have no more room in my belly. We also got some Barbacoa and lengua tacos. Their rice and beans was great and it hit the spot. The best treat was drop fried and salted jalapeño peppers. When in Sylmar, you have to try this small, Mexican gem! read more

The flavor of the food. The rice has something in it like cumin or something. Just nasty.

We've been coming here for years now. The food is consistently delicious and the service is fast. We always get the all meat burrito with agua fresca- piña. So yummy and good portions too! read more

It was passable. It was fine. We didn't get sick. It didn't cost much. But when that's the best you can say about a place there's definitely room for improvement. read more

Food here is always good. I like the murals in the restaurant too. Their lemonade doesn't taste as good as it used too but it's cool they have other drinks. read more

Love the tacos and agua frescas! Went during lunch and to my surprise it wasn't busy so service was quick and pleasant. I'd definitely go again. read more

This place is ok. Its really have gone down hill, they have rude ass workers here now and there's never a manager or any supervisor to address any issue. On two recent occasions I've gotten take out and both times arriving home my orders were a mess, rice and beans all over the place smeared all over my wrapped burrito. Salsas leaking I can go on and on. The first time I let it slide but not the second time! I called in to let them know about it, again no management was available. I explained to the lady that answered and she said that it was my fault that I didn't tell them how I wanted my shit packed! BITCH, NOOO you guys should know how to pack food and know how to separate ingredients! Ya nah I'll never come here again! read more

Food is delicious and price isn't too bad. Only issue I have is a recent problem. I come between 1-2 hours before they close and the doors are locked and people don't answer the phones. So if you can fix the hours of operation. It will be greatly appreciated. Will this stop me from eating here ? No. I'm fat and I love the food read more

I love their lengua tacos, this is my favorite taco place and the inside is a nice warm homey feel. The workers are nice and decently fast. One of the best mexican food spots in Sylmar. read more

Worst al pastor tacos I ever had, it seems the meat is so old they keep heating it up so it was hard with no flavor at all, i never going back read more

Up front, I have only had their burrito, although multiple times. I have now reached my last visit. A burrito for $13.50 plus another $1.50 for payment other than cash is not worth the quality of the meat. I had had their Carne Asada and their El Pastor meats. The El Pastor the day I had it was sub par, but I only had that one time and with that dish, I think one try is not enough to pass judgement. The people working in the front are very nice. I just can't justify the price to the quality. This a local small hole in the wall place and the it is still the most expensive burrito in the area. (Other than some specialty burritos with fish I suspect) If the quality of the meat was improved and the prices were a little more in line, I would try them again. read more

I will never come back. This used to be one of the best places in Sylmar to buy Tacos. The flavor is no longer there and the Asada (meet) and chicken tacos were disgusting. The Asada was mostly pellejos not meet. I DO NOT RECOMMEND this place. read more

This spot has been my go to for a some time now. My recommendations... -Asada Fries or waffle fries -Anything pastor -Surf & Turf burrito Loaded it up with your favorite salsa and pair it with a drink. Delicious!! read more

The ambiance is wonderful along with the service, food is cheap and wonderfully made. Felt bad not knowing Spanish but worked around our language barriers. I recommend coming here for good food & nice people read more

Brought my Parent for a doctor's appointment, and afterwards, we looked around for a quick bite for dinner. This place was next-door and we decided to give it a try. For the prices, I expected more. Don't get me wrong, the cashier's customer service was okay. It didn't make me feel at home, but it was okay. I got a burrito/taco combination and my parent got a shrimp cocktail. The shrimp cocktail apparently was good, according to my parent. My issues, however, began with the price. The combination, as compared with similar locations and food, was a bit expensive and when I pay a little more than I expect at least what I can get every where else. My issues: * No Salsa bar? Really? Instead I got two ketchup packets of tapatio and when I asked for more, I was handed one more packet that made 3 in total. Great thank you, because I love to ration my hot sauce. * The carne asada in my taco and burrito tasted like it was cooked prior then re-heated. However, at the end of my burrito it seemed to have fresh made steak at that point. * the carne asada in my taco and burrito just had absolutely no flavor. * My "Eat In" order combination came in a to-go box which is okay, but I literally got a spoon full of beans as a side. Really? For almost a $10 combination plate? * The rice, as well, just didn't taste fresh tasted almost like a mixture of old and new rice. All in all, I would say either go to the Thai place next door or go to another Mexican restaurant. read more

The tacos de barbacoa are off the hook. Well worth it for $3.25 a pop, at this writing. Excellent salsas, excellent service. Highly recommend. read more

We've just moved in Sylmar few months ago , this was the first place we've picked on Yelp and it was not disappointed at all. Our adults kids come over every weekend & all they wanted was the food from this place. We've tried their burritos, tacos, nachos so far and all were very good every time, very generous on meat. Give it a try please especially in the Pandemic - support local business. read more

On my lunch break I decided to stop by here and have some Mexican food. I ordered 2 tacos de Carnitas and an agua fresca and they immediately made me feel sick! I vomited very soon after. Little humble spots aren't always the best! Due to my experience I would not recommend it or go back! read more

This is the best Mexican food by far! I order the sopes and they always come out piping hot and fresh!!! So much food and cooked to perfection. The red salsa is sooooooo yummy and just when you think this place can't get any better you have a sip of your agua Fresca and you're blown away. DELICIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!! read more

So close to home. I always order the Gordita w/asada. My son loves it. Plus they are open late. Go to on Friday night

This was a great little hole in the wall spot. $1.50 tacos and daily specials, Aqua Frescas and horchata! We ordered 12 tacos and carne asada fries, omg we could have ordered more! They dont skimp on the meat, it was so tender and flavorful. We will definitely be coming back when in the area. read more

We're always buying @ this place the "Papas con Carne" and they're pretty good but they change the server almost every three months or so.. and the fact that I hate is that we ask for sauces and they only give you like two of each when this is pretty much a meal for 4 persons. Idk this time pissed me this much, to write a review in here. More sauces please! read more

Tacos Mi Rincon Tapatio - Mexican Near Me - Sylmar, California

This place has AMAZING food and even better prices. Authentic, plentiful, and sooooo delicious. Totally worth the commute if you are from nowhere near here. I took a bite into their taco con pollo and knew immediately: definitely best tacos and burritos in the valley + definitely top 3 Mexican food restaurants in LA. I will take whatever family or friends that come to SoCal here when they visit. You have won my business 10x over. read more

Decent little hole-in-the-wall Mexican restaurant. Everything I've had there was reasonably priced and tasty. There's plenty of parking throughout the lot just usually not right in front. This place almost always has a few people in the dining room, sometimes it's packed which says a lot to me. read more

This is a cute little place, but it hasselhoff B health rating and they missed some important parts to my food. Taste: one of two dishes met expectations - nothing spectacular. The other was a veggie burrito I asked for guacamole and sour cream twice (sour cream was supposed to come with it), but were entirely missing rendering it dry and fairly tasteless. These two seem pretty import for a veggie dish. the cucumber drink was good though! I only got a veggie dish because of the poor health rating, so it kind of flopped. ‍woman behind the counter was nice, food service. Nothing amazing. it was a cute place, but be careful in the chairs...they fall over easily while in them. Yes, yes I did find this out personally. read more

The best burritos and the best tacos , also got a very good papa nachos would definitely be going again soon. I would definitely recommend this spot to someone who enjoys good Mexican food for a great price read more

This review is for their Piña drink (pineapple). The food is good but the drink is a hit or miss weather you get it fresh or not. And lately it seems like they are just adding ice to an old batch and man that shit sucks!! It taste like old fermented pina or like they added alcohol in it. Which isn't good cause people can get sick. I've told them and called them about this and nothing has changed. They keep serving people old drinks that's just been sitting and fermenting. That's not cool at all. This isn't the first time I've been served old pina from them. So if y'all read this review PLEASE STOP SERVING OLD PINA TO PEOPLE!! read more

DO NOT GO HERE!!! 04-26-2021, Ordered the carne asada nachos and found a Cockroach in the food!!!! I called the restaurant and the cashier pretended like there was static on the line and hung up on me. Save your money and your health. Called back twice, no answer. Called from a blocked number and they answered and then immediatly hung up. DO NOT GO HERE!!! read more

Haven't been here in years but i was just reminded why we stay away. Cashier is a total asshole, it's not what she does it's what she says. Seem like she ha abetted things to do than to serve the customers. I've always said it, if you don't like your job just quit. I pod with a $100 bill she was soooo interested and making sure it was real she took longer check for the bill than taking our order. While ordering I had a couple menu question, she was not having it, even with a mask I could tell my questions bother her. I order 1 asada burrito and 1 asada torta, told her no beans when I opened my torta it had beans. read more
