Garduno's Taco King — Restaurant in Baldwin Park

Ordered uber eats delivery for them. Ordered the machacha plate with no onions or bell peppers and it still had onions in it and was cold. The meat in the machacha plate was very tasty though. Also ordered taquitos where they said it would come with 4 and it came with 3. The taquitos also didn't have much meat in them. Guacamole was a bit sour but I guess edible. Also ordered the vegetarian burrito thankfully with no salsa and that was practically ice cold when we got it. Which was weird since it was well wrapped. My boyfriend wasn't happy with the burrito even when warmed up. And the number one thing my boyfriend wanted me to put in this review is how horrible and burning hot the salsa was. Like actually wasn't spicy tasty it was literally too hot to handle hot. He literally had to use milk and sour cream multiple times and it was only a little dip with the tortilla chips. The vegetarian burrito was supposed to have this salsa on it and I asked for it on the side thank goodness they followed those instructions because we would have had to throw the whole thing away that's how bad it was. And yes he does like salsa just this was just too hot. Oh and before you say our food was cold because we were too far, we live like 5 min from the restaurant and the delivery person was waiting for the order to be done before he could come and didn't like get there after it was already ready if you get what I mean so I have no idea why everything...

Finally! A great Vegan Mexican Food joint! I was able to see someone post on social media, and decided to drive out to give it a try! They had a huge selection for their Vegan menu! Best of all was that also had other selections as well! I want to apologize at first because the pictures I took of the food was after I plated them from a togo order, just to be a little safer from the COVID-19 craziness. I’ll make sure to take better photos next time!

Food Cauliflower Taco & Jackfruit Taco - my wife was the one that got these, I tried a bite, and thought they were pretty nice but definitely spicy. I don’t know if there will be an option to get no spicy next time. I enjoyed it at least. Al Pastor Taco - this was pretty good, well marinated and cooked, but I believe this may not be the same pastor you may expect from like a taco truck. Still pretty good. Vegan Fries- this was quite good, we ended up getting half jackfruit and half cauliflower, but I believe next time we would just go w the cauliflower for more texture. Vegan Quesadilla- this was by far one of my kids and our favorite dish. Had the nice little crunchy texture on the outside but loaded on the inside with vegan cheese. Everyone should give this a try.

Again I’m glad we were able to try this place. There were even markers for people to stand, and everyone kept their distance with masks. Will be back, and will be aiming for those Nachos!...

Well worthy of a five star for serving an area with limited vegan options but half of the items missed. Those that hit were sooooo danky that it made up for the others.

What we liked: the Milanese torta is perfect, get that! The piña colada was also a flavorful and nostalgic, a must get to wash down the food. Take a queso fresco home and put it on everything. This should be your order!

What missed: we were most excited for the albondigas soup but it was a bit bland. Maybe we’ll go back when it gets cold to see if it hits any different. The cheese on the chili fries was also not what I personally like in the plant-based era we are in. Maybe I got the wrong sweets but the gansitos were not fluffy and sweet but rather stiff.

Food did not take long (we ordered a good amount, about $100) so I’ll definitely check it out again when I’m the area (maybe twice a year). Friendly service with a classic taco stand vibe that you used to find all around LA.

Happy...
