Tacos El Venado

This is the taco stand located across the street of the walgreens parking lot.I normally order the burrito and it is massive! I add cheese for an extra fee but it not that much. I get the half and half of the asada and pastor and it is delicious, they really pack in a lot of protein! I def want to try their tacos but I am telling you with the size of the burrito, you will have enough for 2 -3 meals, so you cant go wrong! They will hand you the open burrito and you will have the chance to add whatever you want (sauce, guac, onions, cilantro, etc) and then you give it back for them to wrap it up for you. I recommend just putting the sauces on the side so your burrito isn't wet and eventually falls apart. There is plenty parking in the parking lot behind the stand but beware of the many potholes especially when you go at night as the street lights are very dim. But give them a try and you wont regret it!

Ordered a suadero quesadilla and a cabeza burrito. Both were really good, but I found the flavor of the suadero excellent. I normally like cabeza and the texture was there, but felt the flavor wasn't quite there. Overall good experience. Will definitely come back.Splitting the burrito and quesadilla was very filling.

Such a solid Taco stand. So good I live nearby, because for $2/taco this is the best deal ever. Especially because they pack on the meat. I get the pastor probably every time, and it never disappoints. The service is kind, and it's easy to order. You just go up and say your order. They take cash or zelle only; thank goodness because I did not have cash on me. There is no seating but it's mostly a quick grab and go place, or you can sit in your car in the parking lot behind it. Quite the vibe sometimes. The horchata can be hit or miss, but it's usually a hit. I think the only time it was miss was when I went at the very end of a night one time, and it was a little watered down. Usually it's not like that though. One of my favorite taco stands!!!

Tacos El Venado is the real deal!$2 a taco and they are delicious! Tacos come with unlimited sides such as salsas, onions, jalapeños, radish, guacamole, and lime. They accept cash or Zelle, and the only downside is there is not really anywhere to sit and eat. They do not have a storefront, this is a taco stand on a sidewalk. Got to eat these standing on the truck of your car to get the full experience.The Al pastor is my favorite and it comes topped with pinnacle. Cabeza is so tender, asada is delicious, and carnitas is flavor packed! They are generous with portions, and the staff is kind. Legit tacos here!

Tried the tacos and burrito from here. The flavors I like are there but somehow overshadowed by how greasy they are. I think I got used to eating in places where the meat isn't swimming in oil when they get scooped up and dropped into the burrito or the tacos. By the time I get to eat the burrito, the flour tortilla is already soaked and feels like wet tissue sticking to the foil it was wrapped in. I think you really have to eat everything as soon as they are served on the spot. I will give this place another try and ask if they have chopped up meat not swimming in oil. The flavor is there and this could be really great, if it just wasn't sloppy with oil. A very big plus is the option to pay by Zelle!

Every time I'm in LA, I always make sure to hit up this spot. Tacos el Venado is a taco stand located across a Walgreens and is legit one of the best tacos I've had in terms of quality, quantity, and price. They load up their tacos as you can tell in these pics, and they're just $2 per, with the option of adding melted cheese (queso taco) for an extra dollar. My favorite protein options are carne asada and Al pastor which are both flavorful and juicy. My boyfriend tried their suadero and said it was nice and tender with fatty pieces, but lacked some flavor. We only got some tacos this visit since this was a post-dinner snack, but if you're hungry, their loaded potato is delicious and they truly load them up. They also have a sauce bar on the side with different salsas, onion/cilantro, and pickled onions. If you order a burrito, they hand you your burrito open faced to let you add those condiments on top before they roll it up for you. Amazing food, I cannot recommend this place enough.

While in LA, one would be remissed to not track down a taco truck or two. While Tacos El Venado is not a taco truck -- these guys are in business as a taco street vendor also known as a taco stand so same difference.Our party of 5 collectively ordered 13 tacos. Everyone chose their meat preference. The tortillas are grilled upon order and then the meat of your choice is generously enveloped followed by plating. The tacos arrive as is and all the toppings and salsas are positioned in a bar for patrons to customize. I enjoy extra onions and cilantro on my tacos so I did just that.We all agreed that the tacos were exceptional. Really enjoyed the authenticity and quality of the tacos I ordered. All 5 of us were completely satisfied with the taco fix.Support this taco stand if you're in the area. I know they're close to a brick and mortar in the near future. Tacos are too good to otherwise not have that trajectory.

This place is literally the only street taco I eat in LA. Located on the corner of 6th and Vermont, this is the sister taco stand of Angel's Tijuanas Tacos and Don Chilaquiles. You order from the lady next to the onions and limes--they do cash and Zelle. They don't take Venmo anymore. You order, they give you a number, and you move onto the left where they'll call your number.The food is quick and generous. Sometimes I find myself trying to strategize how I'm going to pick up the tortilla from underneath all the meat they heaped on for the taco. The pastor is cut off the trompa and topped with a piece of pineapple. The burritos are handed to you open so you can take it to the right side to put all your salsas and onion in it. They don't have condiment cups--they only have bags for the salsa and the other condiments. Not gonna lie I keep small mini tupperware in my car so I don't have to deal with the bags. The food is pretty cheap! They recently upped their prices though but still very affordable for Los Angeles.The service is super quick--just make sure you're also listening out for your number in Spanish. They'll whip up all your food and it'll be ready a lot of the time before you can get all your salsas in order.

I come here whenever I crave cheap and delicious tacos. Seriously way better than Mexico and a lot cheaper!! $2/taco. They open everyday except Monday and don't come super late as the salsa and meat are gone quick!

I went here for the torta cubana that they post about all over their instagram with the #koreatown yet when I get there they say it is only at their other location. Don't post something on instagram and not have it. Making people go out of their way to try your food and not even have what you are posting about.
