This place was the worst place I ever been to, first the food took forever to arrive at our table. We waited an hour for our food, then the waitress got our orders wrong and told us that what she gave us was what we order and their was no way we order anything else. Third, the food was awful. I took one bite and not to exaggerate but I couldn't take another it was disgusting. My husband ate half of the burrito mojado and got a stomach ache, he complained all night that his stomach was in pain. Since , me and my husband could not eat the food due to the terrible taste , my husband ask to have the order to take. The waitress brought us our box to take the food and announced that we had not made a mistake on our order because what she had written on her tablet was correct and their was no way in possible that we had order anything else, in other word she was saying that we were idiots for not knowing what we order. I was insulted when she said this that I got up and left as fast as I could. My husband paid the order and we vowed never to eat their again or recommend it. We ended up throwing the food away. Not only was it a waste of money the place was expensive too! It was not worth our time, money, or visit. Never again will...
Read moreAlways hands down the BEST barbecue. Birria and honestly the entire menu is BOMB. This man Pedro the gentleman who owns the place has some MAJOR skills for cooking and receipe. Seriously. I've been to many spots in the entire valley, they are the best. However IT'S CASH ONLY. Come ready. Also get there with TIME TO SPARE you will have to wait 30-40 minutes on the weekends as the place is PACKED and there are dozens of takeout orders and a line to get a seat.
Wanna get in and out fast? Call 40 minutes in advance. Tell them your order ask how long then show up 10-20 minutes before. That way you get in and out fast.
Their handmade tortillas are delicious but only 2 or 3 come with two big orders. So if you want extra you gotta pay them respect and pay for them. They are amazing and are hard work. Big servings for the price.
Will always recommend. Never go...
Read moreI was a published food critic for 20 years. For me, unless you have friends with brick ovens, dug out of the ground, in their back yard, this restaurant is the only place to get the most authentic lamb barbacoa in Los Angeles and probably in the U.S.
You can look up barbacoa de borrego on youtube to see many different little videos of how it is prepared. The very slow cooking, with just the right amount of fire, sometimes for 12 to 20 hours, is the secret.
The berrieria is equally superb.
Don't go for ambience. This place is for...
