Delicious. If we had known, we probably would’ve ordered the braised beef for all of the items. My favorite was the chimichangas that’s grilled. The tacos were good and the burrito wasn’t bad but we had ordered steak. I think it would have been much more flavorful with the braised beef. The service was quick and friendly counter service. The seating was along the wall or a few tables outside. The surrounding area is clean. I would definitely come back and order the chimichanga again. I love the grilled tortillas. The char really makes a difference. The chips come out of a bag. The salsas are good. I didn’t get to taste their spicy salsa which was supposedly in the burritos but I didn’t taste much of it.

I love this place. Hands down some of the best Mexican food in Los Angeles. What separates this place from the others has to be the Sonora style tacos and the type of flour they use to make there tortillas. It's truly special and you can taste the difference. They are always consistent with there food. Smokey char on the asada is to die for. Excellent tacos, burritos and there Agua frescas.

Tasty tacos, chimichangas, and burritos. Although, I think it’s tastiest with the braised beef. We tried them all with a side of chips and salsa. My favorite was the chimichangas. My husband liked the tacos. I prefer the spiciest salsa but the other salsas were good too. The service is friendly and quick. There’s plenty of counter seating inside if you don’t mind facing the wall. There are a few tables outside. I would definitely come back.

Sonoratown in downtown LA is easily one of my favorite spots for a quick and delicious meal. The service is consistently great, the staff is super friendly, and they get your food out to you remarkably fast, which is perfect for a busy lunch break. You can’t talk about this place without mentioning the flour tortillas; they are handmade, thin, and honestly perfect. They have this amazing texture that holds everything together without being too heavy. The meats are incredibly smoky and tender, and when you pair them with that perfectly melted, tasty cheese, every bite is a win. It’s a simple, no-fuss spot where the quality of the ingredients really shines through. If you’re in the area and want authentic flavors that hit the spot every single time, you definitely need to check it out.

One of the best taco places in LA. We got the cabeza and chorizo tacos which were very flavorful and fresh. The flour tortillas significantly add to the flavor of their tacos. Only lost some points due to limited seating availability, as well as difficulty with finding parking.
