La Cocina Restaurant — Restaurant in Los Angeles

My mom brought us here every time she had the chance too so we can eat gorditas de carnitas. Which is my to go to dish from here. The salsa isn’t spicy at all… but I would recommend getting jalapeños but they do charge 0.75 or probably a $1 (my mom says back in the day they used to give them out but people wouldn’t eat them and it was a waste) my son had tacos de asada and he ate it all.

Obviously they have other dishes. But my family has always gone for the gorditas only. Oh and if you bring your toddler I would recommend bringing your stroller to sit them so they can eat. (Obviously a small stroller) They don’t have child seats. If you do bring in your stroller sit all the way in the back where no one will be asking you constantly to move so they can get through.

10/10 Highly Recommend This Place!

My hands hurt that is why I continue to purchase there. They didn't so I wouldn't be buying it from them. I have found a place that is just as delicious but at half the price, better customer service, and their customers nicer. El Sabroso by the Guadalupe church, near...

Looking for some delicious Gorditas? Fresh Carnitas? Look no further! Gorditas are made fresh daily. The meats, specifically Carnitas, are fresh. Growing up I knew Carnitas to be brown. These are pink which I found out that's how they are when they are freshly made.

I ate two of them around ten thirty and didn't eat until dinner at six thirty. I did enjoy half a litre of Coke. It can get busy. The gorditas are very popular here.

A real treat when I have time off of work to come here with wife and have a Coke with a gordita de...
