Stories & Reviews
Guestbook
“ This establishment is perfectly suited for patrons tracking their macros or looking for a clean, non-greasy meal that won't weigh them down. The ingredients are visibly fresh and lean. However, from a strictly culinary standpoint, the food sacrifices too much flavor in its pursuit of health. It is a practical, nutritious option, but not a particularly flavorful one. ”
“ It's a place you would drive past and not notice. It's one of those little hole in the wall joints. It's a small little spot, but it feels authentic as soon as you walk in. We got the breakfast burrito, and it was absolutely amazing! While we waited, which wasn't long at all, we watched multiple orders come out, and each one looked beautiful and very good. I can't wait to come back and try something else! ”
“ So good. So so good. Loved every single thing we ate. ”

“ Was in west hollywood when my hunger kicked in. There's a few burger places and coffee shops but I decided on Los Tacos. Yummy and satisfying. The place is cozy and can use a modern revamp but keep the heritage. I ordered the 2 taco carnitas combination plate and a aqua fresca. My order came up quick and it was freash and hot. My tacos were delicious and the beans and rice were perfect. The cook was way more friendly and inviting then the cashier, but i get it, customer service can be draining. The cook reminded me to try the free condiments of fresh Pico de Gallo and other condiments available at the counter, and im glad I did. If you're ever in the west hollywood area and looking for authentic Mexican American food, with a corner dinner vibe. Then head over to Los Tacos! Friendly, welcoming and great food. ”
