By far the best Mexican food around! Meat is done in a way that makes it super tasty. You need to check out this place!

Went here for a quick dinner after participating in an event at the plaza. Our criteria, 1. We were very hungry and wanted food ASAP 2. We’re college students so the food has to be worth the money 3. They had to take card bc we were fresh out of cash. We all loved it. The food was good and was a great value! They service was quick. Had a great selection of sodas, and served flan which I intend on ordering next time. I had a super quesadilla with asada, a Mexican style hot dog, and a coke. It all came out to about $ 10. Wasn’t the best Mexican food in the world but was much better than other restaurants that charge you 2x as much for the same thing. The salsas were under salted but I can understand that it’s a hard battle to win as some people are super sensitive to salt. At least they give you salt shakers. The outside seating was also dirty so we sat inside. Bottom line: Would come back Would recommend to a friend

Ok so far, the service and food is OK but the place is awful, it has too little spaces to sit, it has some“tables” outside but they are very dirty(not nice) is super little and with a old-creepy atmosphere. Good if u want your food fir Catering or take out.

I have only tired their enchiladas, so I reviewing off of that. I’m picky when it comes to my enchiladas, i really enjoyed them, just how I like them. Food was good, decent, this place is good for a quick bite to eat, and to take your food to go. i have been here twice and will be back again. Customer service was welcoming and nice, that’s always a plus in my book.

Horrible place. Don’t know what I’m more mad about. That I wasted my money there, or that I can’t give it 0 stars. When we arrived, it took them forever to help us. Then they charged us a dollar for some horrible chips when other taquerias give you twice as much for free. When we finally got our food, the order was completely wrong. Will never come here again, but will recommend it to people I don’t like.

Travelling through back home to LA. Al Pastor taco was delicious. Grilled jalapeño nice garnish. House red salsa was boring. Ordered basic Carne Asada burrito. There weren’t even white onions and cilantro. This is standard for any taco truck in LA. It was dry.

Love this place for the TJ-style street tacos. 6 tacos(with cheese) for $ 9? Yes please. The el pastor is awesome, the carne asada, good, and the chicken, alright, but nothing to brag home about. The red salsa is delicious(but spicy… ish), while the green salsa isn’t bad either, but is more mild. Haven’t tried any of the other meats… but those in taco, burrito, or torta form are super yum.

I had frequented this great taqueria before the new ownership. Great authentic tacos, tortillas warmed on the grill with oil, just like in Mexico, this adds great taste to the tacos, also jalepenos/carrots and limes are included, most other taquerias just warm the tortillas which make for a boring taco and don’t add extras. This adds more calories but whos counting when your having a great tasting taco, yes oily but about 100 times better than any fast food drive-tru. Sadly this taqueria had a low amount of customers coming in the doors which most likely caused the new ownership which then changed the cooking style. I only give the new El Jaliscience 3 stars. 5 starts for the old place.
