Yuca's

2056 Hillhurst Ave
Los Angeles, CA 90027-2719
Phone: (323) 662-1214
Delicious tacos at a personable burrito stand.
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

05/13/2007 Posted by dullscythe

Yuca's is a quick walk from my home, so I have eaten here fairly regularly for years. As tasty as the burritos are (and I crave the carne asada ones), what I really love are the tacos. Braised, juicy meat (I favour the carnitas) nestled in a couple of soft white corn tortillas, topped with a dash of salsa picada. Two of these are just right for me, although my appetite is merely average. Cash only, but the Albertson's across Hillhurst has ATMs just within the entrance.

Pros: Quick service, delicious food.

Cons: Closed by 6pm.
