Incredible tacos, the quesadillas are good too, have not tried the burritos. Bit of a weird location as it?s in front of a car... wash, but LA is full of ?great food, weird location?. Read more
This place slaps. We came on a Saturday and ordered the Al Pastor tacos. They are SO good. 2.50$ a piece. Come enjoy some... authentic LA style tacos while listening to the soothing sounds of the car wash. Read more
THIS WAS BY FAR THE BEST FOOD TRUCK I'VE EVER BEEN! Midnight, after drinking, I stopped by here and enjoyed tacos. It was really... spicy but I couldn't stop eating cause it was just too good. I felt spice next morning in the bathroom. Be ready for that. Read more
While approaching this taco truck, my eyes were immediately drawn to a large trompo stacked with layers of well-manicured... adobo-marinated pork spinning around, reflecting a flame off of a glistening surface sweating with achiote-infused meat juices.Upon ordering an "Al Pastor Taco" here, the taquero will carve off thin slices of pork directly off of this upside-down mountainof meat into single corn tortillas and top it off with a chunk of pineapple. Aside from the customary onions and cilantro,ensure your taco has El Flamin's red sauce on it. This is a hypnotic, mouth-numbing salsa roja that complements and completesthe al pastor pork, and the "secret sauce" that keeps this truck doing brisk business. It is indeed "flamin'" with a slow burnand long finish that will linger with you for a while. El Flamin's "Al Pastor Tacos" would be better with a more assertivemarinade, so they do not reach the same heights as the al pastor served at Leo's or even the Ave 26 Taco Stand, but they aredefinitely in my "top 5" favorite pastor-style tacos in Los Angeles. As with the other two al pastor purveyors I mentioned,bagged corn tortillas are used here. But everything else is spot-on, and that sauce is the boss! Read more
The food is delicious they have a variety quesadillas, mulitas, tacos, different meats, salsas Ho! and fried quesadillas are... the best they have a special separated truck to made them, I recommend el pastor meat, they have special menu for 4/20 somepeople complain about the owner for his social preferences because the trucks have signs where it says that everybody is welcomeand I love that, everyone needs to feel that they appreciate their business this is my favorite truck around this area to eatand they closes at 4 am, after 2 am is the most busiest time Read more
There are so many rats around this food truck it?s not even funny. I try to ignore this because this is one of the best taco... trucks in LA and possibly the best quesadillas I?ve ever bought, shout out to the lady who makes them? but last time I wentfirst thing I saw was the taquero smiling at the huge rat that was staring him down. You guys need to change locations,seriously. Move by the Vons down the street or literally anywhere else! Read more
