    Torta cubana
    Katherine B.

    I genuinely cannot believe how big the portions are here. This is one of the biggest burritos I've ever seen. This was hands down the biggest torts I've ever seen (I only have a picture of half of the torta). The gentleman who makes these is so lovely. Such a hard worker! The line got long for this little shop in grand central market, but he kept working through it! I wish I had more salsa for my burrito, it was good, but needed a little more flavor. But my friend said her torta was amazing. I'm definitely going to try that next time! There are no seats outside of this food stall, but plenty of seating throughout grand central market. Service is relatively quick given that he makes your order right there on the spot. I'll definitely be back

    Food: 4/5 Service: 4/5 Ambiance: 3/5 Co worker brought me to this taco spot in grand central market. When I walk in, I was overwhelmed by amount of people and all the restaurants. Without my co worker, I would have to walk around and look for this place. I ordered stomach taco. The flavor was ok but the portion was great. After we grabbed our food, we had to go around and look for empty table to sit on. I don't really like this type of setting. Parking could be hard if you come around peak time.

    Store front and burrito that fell apart when trying to eat it.

    The asada and the pastor were absolutely disgusting. Low quality meat, poorly cooked, and poorly prepared. Although they load up your taco and burrito, its not good tasting food. The burrito fell apart when trying to eat it. Poor quality!

    Beef tongue taco. $6.

    Never would I imagine myself enjoy a taco this much! I had one yesterday, for $6, and I am thinking of when I can go back and had another one again! Yup, that good. We were at the Grand Central Market looking for lunch. Walked by this place, and the protein looked good and I ordered a beef tongue taco thinking to eat one as snack. The gentleman who served me was super friendly. Saw me taking a picture and volunteered to hold the protein so I can get a better picture. Here are plenty of seating area in the food court area. One taco can fill two person up. The meat was so tender, so good that I decided to go back and get one to go for mom to try. But they sold out of beef tongue taco already! Oh well, Until next time!

    Carnitas taco!!
    Kishaun T.

    Mexican food is my favorite! This did not disappoint. The amount of meat in just one taco is crazy! They give an additional 3 tortillas, too. So basically you get 4-6 tacos per one $5 taco!! Carnitas were flavorful and not too salty, which is ok with me! Hot salsa was hot but good and not kill your mouth hot.

    Giant tacos with additional tortillas

    We did a lap around the Market to look at our options but ended up at Tacos Tumbras a Tomas. There was a line so we figured that was a good sign. The portion sizes are HUGE. I ordered 2 tacos but he gave me extra tortillas so 2 tacos turned into 4 (which I could not finish). My husband ordered a burrito which was also huge and he wasn't able to finish. We both felt like the flavor was lacking. The "spicy" sauce wasn't very spicy, or maybe there just wasn't enough of it. It was good but I wouldn't go back because there were so many other good options.

    This is my favorite carnitas taco spot!!! One taco is enough, they give you extra tortillas so you could get full with one and two if you're extra hungry.

    Delicious tacos and huge portions! This is located in Grand Central Market and is located towards the middle. It's near Donut Man. We tried a range of meats, including lengua, carnitas, cabeza, and asada. There's different texture to each meat and I find it uncommon for places to have such a range of meats. Staff was super friendly and service was fast (so if you see a line, it's for good reason and don't despair!).

    Tacos Tumbras a Tomas was the place my friend picked for a quick pick me up at Grand Central Market. There was quite a bit of wait, both to order and for the food. Once he got the food, the portions were large for the price! He also mentioned how they were really nice despite the busy atmosphere. The only complaint was probably the salsa, the flavor was a bit lack lustered.

    Who doesn't love a big taco loaded with meat? For $5 you get to choose what meat choice you want for your big taco. It comes with onion and cilantro, and the server was very kind to ask if we'd like that understanding that we are tourists. Just note that the meat is very fatty and oily so it can get quite heavy.

    Carne asada quesadilla
    Emma F.

    The other reviews are pretty spot on. HUGE portions. I went with the carne asada quesadilla and one carnitas taco. Great price point and the salsa verde is delicious. $16 for the two items (a steal)!

    Pollo taco
    Brian V.

    4++ Located inside the Grand Central Market, this stand or space feels like it's been here for quite some time. It's one of the handful of taco spots located in the market. The folks here are friendly and the prices are very reasonable, especially considering the amount of food you get! I came in on the way home from work one night and wanted to get a chicken or pollo taco. The prices seem slightly high on the menu, but once you get it, you see why. This 'one' taco is basically the equivalent of like 4 tacos. The meat and toppings were piled high and you are given extra tortillas to mop up an straggling toppings that fall off your original taco. Best to be eaten with a fork (virtually impossible to pick up and eat with your hand). Another great piece in the Grand Central Market tapestry of yummy (and affordable) eats.

    asada tacos $5
    Karla B.

    Came here to Grand Central with my partner and I got one asada taco! Food here is so good and the portions, ommgg, crazy and one fills me up. Each taco is $5 and that's a steal for the price and portion. I eat this everytime I come to grand central. My favorite taco place to go. The only taco place in grand central that has a line. It's in the middle right side. Workers are extremely quick and friendly! Love this place.

    Do they have vegetarian tacos?

    No, last I checked it was all meat tacos.

    Is the meat halal or kosher?

    I don't believe so

Cute building with lovely patio seating: from the trailing hanging pothos plants, Spanish tiles, to relaxing latin-house music the vibes were welcoming. I'm not much of a drinker though, when asked if I wanted to make my pina colada a "float" I thought incorrectly about ice cream. It was graciously explained that you take an additional shot of rum and float it on top of the drink or mix in to make it extra boozy. The pina colada is top notch they hollow out a real pineapple to make the drink and it's the size of your face! The watermelon cocktail was delicious and there is also a mezcal option. Tasted like if a watermelon aqua Fresca was combined with a margarita, there is a hint of salt that brings out the fruit sweetness. We special ordered a bunch of different proteins and vegetables at half portions to make a feast: Aguachile- Light refreshing starter, kanpachi perfectly marinated and great for the summer heat. Crispy potato- Phenomenally done fingerling potatoes. Whipped beans- Carnitas on top made this dish. Fried chicken tacos- Found the chicken slightly on the dry side, if there was a creamy/thicker sauce would be even better... nothing wrong with flavor, good mild heat. I did enjoy the fresh shredded cabbage and carrots, reminded me of bahn mi. Empanadas- Loved the acidity of the sauce that cut through the fattiness of the ground meat. Light shell. Crispy Squash flower- Delicate crunch, like an angelic version of a jalapeno popper. Lamb chops- Definition of "treat-yourself" luxurious meat lollipops. Celery salad- Simple dish but the lemon flavor and tartness really helped break up the richness of other dishes. Churros- Light crunch and small, petite dessert. The thin caramel sauce is addicting. Fine dining, for those special occasions or if you just want to splurge for a morale boost highly recommend this restaurant. Valet parking or park across the street or around the corner in a lot for $5-10.

Located between Koreatown and Pico-Union, this restaurant delivers an outstanding dining experience from the moment you're seated. My wife and I both ordered the Mole Coloradito with chicken, and it was absolutely delicious. One detail we really appreciated was being able to choose between white meat or dark meat--a thoughtful touch that lets you customize your meal to your preference. The mole was rich, complex, and full of flavor, exactly what you would hope for from a restaurant known for its Oaxacan specialties. As a welcome appetizer, they bring fresh chips and salsa to the table, but what really impressed us was when they replaced the salsa with their incredible mole sauce. It was so good we found ourselves dipping everything into it. Both meals were served with rice that was perfectly cooked with a great consistency and flavor. For those feeling adventurous, give the Chapulines (grasshoppers) a try. They may sound intimidating, but they were surprisingly enjoyable and added to the authentic experience. The staff was exceptionally friendly, attentive, and patient with those of us who are not fluent in Spanish. Their hospitality made us feel comfortable and welcomed throughout our visit. Great food, authentic flavors, and wonderful service make Guelaguetza a restaurant we'll definitely be returning to. Highly recommended!
