El Zocalo

The place was dirty. The cashier hardly noticed me. I asked for extra salsa, the cook was mean about it pointed to a sign informing two salsa cups per meal. The female tried to make up for his rudeness. It’s a sad place, obviously losing money to run. Has potential if someone works hard at cleaning it up. The potato taco special was pretty bad. The potato was bland. The rice & beans that came with them was much better. I also ordered a carnitas burrito, it came with side of chips and they looked tasty except for the fact they were fried in old oil. The flavor was awfully bad. I’m not impressed at all. I will try once more to be fair. To be continued.

I have been coming here for a long time there food is great it’s more like you order to go. There service is slow I say we got there on time lol you know when you are the second one about to pay but all of a sudden there’s like 10 ppl in line. They need a second cashier and better service. The food is great!

Compre 3 roscas este año 2016 y ninguna rosca tenía bebé y cuando hablo para quejarme yo salí regañada como que si yo tuve la culpa de sus incompetencia! !! Que no jodan!!! Ya perdieron con migo a buscar otro lugar para la rosca! Tanto año de ir a comprar rosca !!

Very good Mexican hot chocolate; burrito was pretty dry, but fair for the price. If you are looking for a quick bite to meat, and happen to be in Wilmington for god knows why, I guess this will do

El Zocalo… El Sabor Original de Mexico !!!
Make our own Masa Tortillas for $ 0.69/lb with their fresh ingredients! You can buy salsa here too.
I had a meat called «Guisaldo de:» (and it was a pork in a red zesty spicy sauce) for $ 6.99/lb which was delicious.
The fresh tortilla chips are $ 1.99, and come in roughly 1 lb bags or bigger. They’re thick and crunchy.
You can buy pastries and well as fresh bread and desert items here too.
Muy Buen!
It’s a good place to shop, which I give an «A-​OK» thumbs up recommended ranking.
Parking is somewhat rather easy as they have a parking lot, and you can choose to dine in and eat inside too, or take orders to go.

Very disappointed, I ordered a milanesa torta and the lady told me that they have a chicken millanesa so I said why not let’s try it and I got a chopped chicken torta sandwich, no onions the tiny tomato slices and no flavor. Sad to say but very disappointing.

It was very disappointed it!!! Is not the same then before the «cook» was super rude I asked him questions and he literally let me talk to myself giving me his back… If I wasn’t pregnant I would tell him off and show him how to have manners… And he give me the wrong food,. Making me drive back gain… He didn’t even apologize at all!!! … He was in a rush since I guess he wanted to go home… The food was disgusting not the same! It was very sad.

The food is absolutely great but they are SELFISH when serving food. Not even close for what we payed. It was ridiculous. I was shocked at how little food he served us when ordering. I will definitely Not be coming in here for a second time! Very disappointed!

Chile verde is good. Tamales are better than most, not great. Pollo salsa verde is also good. Big bag of corn tortillas cheap. Worth a try. You might like.

They’re great for the price… Food is yummy
People are cool… Pan Dulce great
The neighbor just is not the best. Then again. It’s Wilmington

the mexican nachos here are DELICIOUSSSSSSSSSS I come here almost everyday to get it. get the nachos that is all

What can I say I have passed by many times and finally decided to give them a try. The neighborhood is shady, but hey I’ll risk it for pan dulce any day — (well, most). Anyway this review is for their pan dulce, it was fresh and delicious. I tried the mini conchitas that my daughter likes and they were soft and better than expected. I ordered a half dozen pork tamales with red chile and they were also good. Overall I would recommend it, not sure about the kids playground though, I went at night and it was pretty much empty with some shady looking guys hanging around the parking lot, but what can I say, just park close and always do a 360 before, while walking and coming back to your car… Good job El Zocalo, you won over a new customer !

one of the best mexican restaurants in LA!!! loved it
all the employees are extremely nice and helpful!!! recommend it for everyone out there that likes mexican food!!!

Better tasting Mexican food out there. Place is dirty looking.

Dirty
Loud
Unorganized
its like a damn playground for Aztec children
food was greasy and can not have a conversation over the loud noises of kids climbing on things and loud music.
kind of difficult to figure out the ordering process

My parents and I went here on a Saturday afternoon. We got a chicken combo plate, a whole chicken combo to take to our aunt’s house, and two chiles rellenos.
My two chiles rellenos came out as combos with salad! I was impressed. :) Too much salsa on my chiles rellenos though. It made the salad too wet.
The chicken combo and whole chicken were good. Overall, big portions for a the price.

If you like tortas like i do, you have to try the tortas here but, beware they are as big as your head!

Located in a small corner shop area, this place serves up some reasonably authentic mexican food, however, their portions are extremely huge. I mean, order two tacos and take out two of the tortillas and transform it into four tacos.
I have purchased most of the tacos here and was only disappointed once, but hey, not every place is perfect, also price is a bit high, so be selective!
Make sure you go say hi to the guy at the store next door, he is a great guy and is always happy to talk to new people.
