El Antojito

I really want to give them 5 stars but the parking is horrible, especially around lunch time 12 pm — 2 pm. They’re basically a taco truck on a parking lot and a building that is used to sell the aguas frescas and juices on one side and paletas and nieve on the other side. Been coming here for 3 years, they have some of the best tacos and especially lengua (my favorite). They have sea food, which is popular around lent. Whenever we eat here we usually eat the tacos or quesadillas (we add meat). The tacos come with cilantro and onions and they give you chile on the side. What I like about them is they give you a roasted jalapeño with zanahorias curitadas and a roasted cebollita and they are NOT stingy about it. Yes, I have asked for no onions before and they have ignored the request but come on people, just take the damn onion off yourself, geesh not that complicated. Their paletas and nieve are so so good makes me so so happy! Their natural juices are pretty good too. If you don’t mind the wait during lunch hours, it is definitely worth the wait. Make sure you bring cash, they don’t take any other form of payment. They do have an atm on the spot but they charge $ 2.50 for transaction fee. BTW, I have never had a problem with the girl that has a bunch of tattoos. She’s actually really nice.

Loved this place! My friend brought me here a couple days back to get some tacos. And to my surprise it was more than just a taco stand, or a taco truck. It has a restaurant where you can buy drinks and different fruit drinks. They also have a dining area/​porch where you can wait for your food and eat it there. Once our order was done, my 3 tacos did not last me 5 minutes I killed that sh*t. I definitely will be coming back here more often!

Cash only, aquas frescas are a little processed but they’re still pretty bomb. Prices are reasonable. Had to get their elote cause it’s rare to find it in cups!

Was recommended by wife’s friend so thought we give it a try. We ordered tripas, asado tacos and tort de asada. When we got our food, we checked to see if we got everything we ordered, but they got the order wrong and gave us a asada burrito. That’s fine, everyone can make a mistake, so I told them I got the wrong order and I could tell from their face expression that they were annoyed by me telling them they got the order wrong. In short, we returned the burrito and got the torta (which was the correct order) and when we got home and open the wrap. The whole inside of part of the buns were charred black. I mean not just slightly toasted, but totally burnt black. We just threw it out without even tasting it.
As for the tacos, not sure why her friend thought it was the best tacos they ever tasted, but it’s just all right.
Anyways, I guess they don’t like people pointing out their mistake and asking them to correct it.

Torta Cubana is what it is about!
Great food, great prices, busy at lunch though.
Get the Strawberry water too, because it’s damn good.

Best place… never have i left this place without being satisfied!!! Every bite & sip is heaven

The food is good, prices are good, there is soooo much to try. I want to go back and try everything. Parking is BAD.

Bathroom: An all metal bathroom around the back of the building. It is very clean and there is no smell.
The parking and general layout of the buildings is kinda weird here. The ladies that serve gelato are nice and polite. The taco dudes, not so much.
Tacos were super bomb, probably the best sauce I’ve ever had. They pour it for you, so you can ask for extra sauce if you want to control the heat of your tacos. If you order different meats, they’re cooked on the same grill so beware of «spillover», where you might have tripas in your cabeza taco. Though they’re a bit messy, the tacos are fried nice and crisp. Horchata is always good. The strawberries and cream stuff is good too, good portions for dessert items.

Delicious tacos, tortas, ceviches, agua frescas and other desserts! Cash only and definitely brush up on your Spanish as a lot of times they will call out your order number in espanol. Parking is a pain but it’s worth it! It’s a hidden gem that’s constantly overlooked. I love that it’s open early and stays open late!

Everything I’ve tried leaves me wanting to come back! You won’t regret whatever you decided to go with. Lines can get long so be ready to wait, but they move quick so be patient. Staff is friendly and they are constantly cleaning the tables.

My fav Mexican taco spot in Gardena area. They have a truck and a storefront (for flavored frescas and esquites). Wish their esquites was less watery but it’s still good. Their tacos always hits the spot. Ceviches always taste fresh and huge portion. My favorite drink at the storefront (go to window outside) is their strawberry fresca (strawberry water) which is slightly milky and oh so refreshing!!!

If you like authentic Mexican food plus other stuff they only make here this is your place.
I have eaten Mexican food throughout Mexico and these guys are the real deal.
Probecho

Love this place! Tacos are only $ 1!!! Only con is that they only take cash… everything else is good. If you’re feeling hungry get the torta Cubans! Never disappoints!
After every time I go to this place I feel like I was in Mexico… The amount of Mexican antojito is great! You can get just about any Mexican street food at one location.
What are you still doing reading this get! Get yourself to antojitos!!!

Came here at the suggestion of my parents. Sunday 1pm, it looked really packed but the line to order went quick, our food was out in like 7 minutes and we found a table. I ordered the carne asada torta, husband had the mixta tostadas, really full of seafood, mom had the Cuban torta, that thing was huge and dad had the carnitas burrito. Seriously impressed with this place. They have a section to order fresh waters and smoothies and paletas. Like the Arnold says, «I’ll be back»

i Ay Caramba !
This place is crazy packed and all so new to me! Why didn’t I try it sooner?!! I’ve passed by it a few times but never paid a visit. Besides, the area seemed sketchy. But hey, it was a Friday night and the night was young, calling for a spontaneous adventure. My friends and I ventured out to try some legit $ 1 tacos, ESQUITE (corn), && AGUAS FRESCAS!
CABEZA TACOS: 3/5.not the best I’ve had and I highly suggest to eat them right away. We took ours to go and got soggy – order with everything on it. Come early because they sold out quick on shrimp tacos!
ESQUITE: I enjoyed watching the whole process of putting it together in a cup. It’s always fun to see how your food is prepped (so I can make it at home too!!!) Same with the tacos, it wasn’t the best version I’ve had but I give it a ⁴⁄₅. They use fresh corn and the price is decent. They’re not stingy with ingredients. Ask for extra mayo and parmesan! I didn’t like the chili – if it was even chili powder. NO SPICE AT ALL – a baby can eat it.
AGUAS FRESCAS: ⁵⁄₅ Order inside then pick up your drink/​s at the stations. I recommend half CANTALOUPE, half HORCHATA! Best combo ever.
Come with cash. If you forget, there’s an ATM machine on-​site but it’ll cost you the transaction fee. I only had $ 16 cash with me and still managed to feed 2 people! And I still had $ 2 leftover. #winning
Parking lot is hectic. Be cautious because drivers were maniacs. Swear, they almost hit us at least 3 times. I suggest to park on the streets or residential area.
I’d definitely be back even if I felt it was a 3.5÷5. I really did like the whole new experience especially when you have great company.

This place kicks serious ass. Forget Tacos Sinaloa, El Gallito, and Los Paisas. this place has everything and more! The Torta Cubana was a heaping pile of meats and cheeses piled in between some wonderful crusty bread. The tacos are only a dollar, compared to most other places where they’re a buck and a half, and just as good as anywhere I’ve tried if not better. Once you’ve satisfied your meat-​tooth, you can head over to what seems to be a Mexican Baskin Robbins/​Jamba Juice for ice cream, paletas, or even aquas frescas to go with your meal. I can hardly wait to return! Highly recommended.

I LOVE TACOS! One of my weaknesses in life are TACOS! Visited this place by recommendation of a friend on Tuesday evening and the place was pretty poppin! Located within a gas station sort of place, it is kind of in a sketch area, but the whole establishment is spacious with plenty of seating and best part is, its like 3 businesses in 1. What I mean by that is, there’s the taco truck, a drink place (that sells amazing fresh fruit drinks) and next to it, there’s a ice cream place (selling different ice creams and fruit bars). So essentially its like a packaged deal of amazing food, drinks and dessert all in one place! I can’t really say much for the service, but I’m not really expecting anything when the food is ridiculously cheap.
Highlights:
— TACOS! ALL THE TACOS! SOOO YUMMY! My favorite is the al pastor! Best part is that they are $ 1
— Al Pastor Torta
— Make sure to request a side of grilled vegetables (carrots, onions, etc.) and it will all come on a separate plate for free!
*CASH ONLY!

If you’re looking for a good taco stand with cheap prices then look no further. This place offers good food for even better prices. They have tacos, burritos, tortas & even mariscos. Which are all delicious. Food is from the lunch truck that is in the parking lot (cash only).
They have paletas, corn, aguas, fruits etc by the seating area (again, cash only) they do have a ATM though.
Also parking can be kinda tight but no biggie.

Desde q llege a este pais mi mama me llevava a comer a ahi y me encantava. Ahora no se q les esta pasando hacen todo como q les vale madre. Los tacos llenos de grasa y ES MEJOR PEDIR LA SALSA APARTE por q ellos te la hechan y parese un cochinero en los tacos… Los tostilocos me volvian loca me dejavan con un sabor de boca tan rico los hacian perfectos la fruta fresca y bien picada y ahora wow los pedasotess de cueros y los pedasotes de fruta q con trabajos se los puede uno meter ala boca… Laa fresas con cremas aun sigen ricas pero antes las fresas estavan frescas y ahora las fresas las tienen ya viejas casi molidas … Espero q pronto vuelvan hacer las cosas como antes

This is the best taco truck I’ve found in my area, even though the customer service really sucks (more on this later). I actually think it’s slightly better than El Chato because it’s always open and the meat isn’t as dry. I usually get the carne asada tacos with no sauce and it’s perfect. The meat is very well seasoned, it can stand on its own instead of being drowned in the sauce. I’ve gotten the quesadillas and they give lettuce and avocado. The line can get pretty long on the weekend so I just come on the weekdays or their late hours on the weekends.
I really like the bionicos. They put cinnamon in the crema and it is amazing! This is my favorite bionico place as well. Who knew you could find a place that serves amazing tacos and bionicos!
Their juices are amazing as well. My favorite is the strawberry. I feel it’s very reasonably priced for the size you get. The only thing I’ve tried and didn’t like is the ice cream. It wasn’t rich enough.
Another big, big issue I have is the customer service. I held off rating them for a while because it’s so touch and go. Sometimes I get good service but I usually end up with someone rude helping me. I don’t know if they’re rude to everyone or to certain groups but it has to improve. Several reviewers mention this bad service, and it’s bad enough to dock a star. I didn’t because the food really is 5 star worthy, but that service is left to be desired. I just hope it doesn’t get to a point where I have to go somewhere else!

Yum, beef tongue tacos! My daughter and I had to try 6 different flavors out of the variety. We had the beef tongue, tripas, asada, carnitas, cabeza, and chorizo. My favorite was the tongue. Nice texture and great flavor. My least favorite was the asada. The meat was a bit overcooked but had good flavor. Ordered horchata from the juice stand next to the outdoor eating area, which was perfect with the tacos. I would definitely come back. Affordable soft tacos 6 for $ 7.00.
Be prepared to wait, long lines and parking can be a challenge.
