Came here to eat some tacos dorados and they were delicious, only thing that I didn’t like was the service, the guy serving the tacos was angry and felt like he didn’t want to be there.

Super duper tasty tacos de canasta. They're not your typical tacos. But trust me, you HAVE to try them.

The great comfort foods from Los Angeles, here at the Santee Alley.
With so much to shop from one has to stop by to get some delicious food. They have different flavors (chicharrón, pollo en mole, pollo a la mexicana, papá, frijoles y chorizo) They also have a special for 60 tacos tray (45% off) $69.99.
Very fast and kind customer service! Tacos de canasta tend to be very greasy because of the preparation method however these ones were perfect not too greasy and so flavorful. We recommend it 👌

Well, tacos was okay, service okay also, I ordered some tacos de canasta and agua fresca de limón con chia,no flavor at All..just sugar and lots of ice , doesn't taste like lime... Probably next time I will order something different..

Terrible service. I felt rushed to place my order.They didn't give me the option to buy the kind of tacos I wanted. They sell water bottles for 2 dollars when nearby clothes store sell them for half that price.
why take advantage of customers who are buying you food?
And let people chose the flavor they want not what you want to serve.

Don't recommend.

Don't get scammed going here. Tacos filled with next to nothing and was offered to sample what they had. Agreed, then was handed a whole plate and once I touched it they said I had to pay for it. If you look at their trash can it's filled with single bitten tacosas no one cares for them. The Aguas were good though. I get it's a hustlers mentality in the alley but work on gaining repeat customers.

NOT WORTH THE $10 HEARTBURN!!
I've been following them on Instagram and i've been craving their tacos so bad!! until I tried them today, I had an order of 5 ($10) tacos and I asked for mixed which included Chicharron, chicken, potatoes and beans. I couldn't tell which taco was which one because they all taste the same! very bland and sad without mention that the amount of filling you get is the same amount of oil you will eat with your tacos. very oily and very little filling.
They give you a bag of raw cabbage (no seasoning, spices, or even salt on it) and a small cup of sauce. I was very disappointed and honestly very sad that it's not what it looks like on social media, also very rude costumer service. Pros: They take debit/credit card. (but just for the tacos, if you want a beverage you have to buy it and pay aside.) I hope they get better.
