What People Are Saying About LA Taquiza

Citysearch

Wedged in a strip mall between USC and downtown, arguably one of the city's best Mexican eateries dishes out tasty burritos--especially noteworthy are the pork and potato--in addition to other traditional delights. Thirsty diners may choose from a wide variety of fresh juices.

so so so yummy

by IHeartCheapFood

My friend just introduced me to this place and I can't believe I have lived in LA my entire life and hadn't been there before. It's somewhat of a guys kind of place, tons of USC bros (not that thats a bad thing). I ordered one of my mulitas vegetarian style witch was with potatoes. SO SO good! I will definitely be back! Thank you Julian for the introduction!

  • Pros: cheap

Greatest food ever!

by bboppinbrigid

Jonathan Gold (the Pulitzer Prize-winning food critic for the L.A. Weekly) lists this place in his book of his favorite restaurants in L.A. He is very correct--this place is the bomb. Try their fresh-squeezed juices or trademark mulitas.

Though, note that they are open until 11pm on Sat and Sun (not 12pm as listed here).

  • Pros: Fresh, quality ingredients; low prices; great variety
  • Cons: parking can be a drag

Don't know what a mulita is, but LOVE the sopes

by kdbriggs

La Taquiza, casa de las mulitas, IS authentic Mexican food. Wedged between a convenient store and a nail salon, La Taquiza is the south of the border craving oasis. Restaurant offers commonplace Mexican fare such as quesadillas and burritos. I can't get enough of the sopes. Although guacamole is available, it's best obtained elsewhere. Avoid going during lunch hour as the wait is unbearable. Prices great! Must go to.

  • Pros: Sopes!
  • Cons: Parking, crowds
