    Avocado only in the front of the taco- no flavor asada and chile was watery and no spice
    Rosa R.

    So I read the reviews , looked at the photos and I decided today I'd try it out. It's Tuesday and they had a taco special. Well I wasn't too impressed. Meat was cut way too big and it was too hard to chew! Salsa is boring! Way too watery and No flavor no spice! Someone also complained about them getting upset about asking for extra salsa. Yes the manager didn't like me asking for extra (boring) salsa. My daughter's torta didn't have avocado either.outdoor seating is not good for a day like today. Way too cold to eat outside. So no I'm not impressed! Not cheap either .

    I spotted this coupon at Food4Less--free taco and a drink with any purchase? Had to check it out. Glad I did! These tacos are straight fire! The guac was fresh, the meat was tender and juicy--honestly some of the best tacos I've had in CPT. No need to make the trip to TJ for that authentic flavor--these hit the mark. Shoutout to the manager, Antonio, for being super friendly and making me feel right at home.

    Some of LA's best Carne Asada Tacos
    Louis P.

    Dead ass some of the best Carne Asada Tacos in LA. The smoky carne asada al carbon, the handmade tortillas, the avocado salsa, and their spicy red salsa omgaaawd. Legit taste like Baja Tacos from TJ/Ensenada style. They got the trompo Al Pastor. Pass on the Birria, personally didint like it.

    Quesadilla de asada with hand made tortilla
    Gladys N.

    For anyone who is craving carne asada tacos from Tijuana but refuse to do the drive down south, this is the place to get your fix at. I had the quesadilla de asada with hand made corn tortilla and it was delicious. The food taste so good here, we also tried the tacos de pastor and tacos de asada which were good. It's in the middle of Compton, I don't recommend eating since it's more of a pick up spot with a few tables outside. The service upon entering is welcoming and very nice staff.

The food is mouthwatering. The ambiance was amazing, fantastic music, and the service was excellent, you are made to feel at home. And you are greeted with smiles! I ordered tacos dorados, it comes with salsa and consome. Let me just say... the consome absolutely filled with so much flavor. The tacos were crunchy!

    Another Eat the World LA Find That Delivered…read more Weekday workday, only an hour for lunch, and I was craving soup -- so I decided to try another Eat the World LA find: CH Y La Birria in Compton. As usual, it did not disappoint! Since I don't normally make my way to this side of town unless I'm working, I've been making a point to explore restaurants near work. I ordered the Birria Ramen online, and pickup was super easy. My order was ready promptly and ahead of schedule. The staff was friendly and even gave me a helpful tip: ordering over the phone is actually cheaper than ordering online. Definitely good to know for next time! I brought my ramen back to work and enjoyed it there. They also offered chips, which ended up being the perfect addition. I used them to scoop up the birria and consommé first, then went back to the ramen. The 16 oz serving was generous enough that I even had leftovers for lunch the next day. I'd definitely order the Birria Ramen again, but I'm also curious to try some of their other offerings next time. Another successful Eat the World LA recommendation!

Or a sort of permanently stationed thing that really isn't a sit down restaurant but it has seating. I don't know what to call it. Parking is pretty much impossible. I returned multiple times and ended up leaving due to nowhere to park. You have to get lucky. Or live in walking distance.

    I visited this restaurant this week because my friend mentioned something about a ceviche. First of…read moreall is super big. It has three different areas where you can order different food when you arrive. You will see the food truck. Go there and order any soup, ceviche tostada, any heavy food. I order ceviche and oh boy! this is the best ceviche I have ever tried for 2026!! The price was another thing that really surprised me since when you bought a bigger size of ceviche can go up to more than $60 to my surprise this place give me a very good deal which I do appreciate. This place has been in my head the whole week, servers are very kind patience and give you a lot of options so you can get what you want, after ordering my ceviche I went inside the restaurant now which is the building and they have one section of only ice cream lollipops oh my God they have three times more options than any other places. If you go around where the tables are outside, you will see a little window where you can order any kind of Agua fresca and other snack snack. please go and visit this restaurant. This is a very unique Mexican flavor restaurant You will be amazed by the variety and the taste of the food. they have plenty of parking lot, but I've heard that they can run out of parking lot since a lot of people can come in and out but most people do order and takeout since this Restaurant do not have an AC.

    Located next to 76…read more ********I THINK IT'S CASH ONLY!!!******** Ordered 4 tacos. I got the carne asada, cabeza, and labio. They come HOT which is perfect. Tortilla super hot. Caution. Honestly, I had no idea which one was which when I got the order. Didn't matter. They were all super tender and delicious. Perfect flavor and they give a lot of meat. So much meat you can't fold the taco and the meat falls out. Then you have to scoop up the remaining meat with your hands. Delicious. Wish I got more tacos. They have radish, onions, and cilantro for self serve. Hot sauce and verde sauce. The sauces are not too powerful and has nice flavor balance with the tacos. The hot sauce was pretty spicy. They're a creeper. They have a bench in front to sit but no tables. Eat those tacos on the spot. They should be eaten hot and fresh. If you're in Compton, this place is a must.

What bothered me the most was that this guy just got off his bike and went to the grill and started flipping items over without washing his hands or anything. Nasty! I ordered some quesadillas and they take so long even with no one else there. I was here previously and like others have said they have also skipped my order. The meat in the quesadillas is salty, I thought it was just me the first time but this second time I confirmed it's very salty.
