Jim’s Taco Fiesta

Super authentic tacos! This place is legit is you’re looking for some good carne asada tacos and they come with the whole works, onion, pickled carrots and peppers and lime. The owners son was super friendly and even brought the food to us and made conversation. This place is family owned and the steak is cooked fresh for you and not just sitting under a heater. It doesn’t get better than that.

First of all, it’s in the cut. However, it’s cute and cozy. The lil guy in the front was SUPER nice. So nice, that he actually brought our food to the car! I’m definitely coming back.

Landed after a long flight and was starving for some tacos. This place is not much to look at from the outside but the food was awesome. I had the chicken burrito with fresh avocado. I will definitely go back.

Just finished eating here and for the price it was really good. Good tortillas on their tacos and at only 2 bucks a pop I’m glad I got 2. I also had the chili cheese fries. Could have used some more chili and been a little crispier fry, but that might be a personal preference I don’t like fries that have a softer exterior. Prefer more crunch.
Still really good and for only 10 bucks with a bottled water, I was happy I walked down there to try it out.

This family-​owned restaurant served up a great meal. The service at the counter was friendly, and my order was delivered to my table with a smile in about five minutes. The chicken burrito was generously sized, with a good mix of meat, rice, and beans, and was reasonably priced. The dining area was small, but clean. Very nice!

Not only because my father is the owner but our place is the real deal old looking building but the food that comes out of here is not matched for the prices stop by and enjoy good quality food.

This Place is Delicious, if you blink your gonna miss it on Century Blvd cause it’s small. I have had the Asada Tacos & Burritos, Chicken Sandwich, Pastrami Fries, Cheese Burger & the Double Tortilla Quesadilla. Bomb!

Been coming here as a kid. Food never disappoints. Y’all should try they’re wings their great!

Food here is delicious and not pricey. Would recommend this place to anyone. Burgers are good and so are the chili cheese fries. I also love the fact that it’s a family owned restaurant.

Great food and service.
Nice family owned restaurant.
Been here a few times and it’s aways great.
New name is
Taco Fiesta

I love this place! Chicken salads are the best. I agree don’t let the place fool you. I’ve been coming for years. My brother loves their breakfast burritos. I usually stick to turkey sandwiches, breakfast sandwich, and their salads.

Good price great food. I stick to the carne Assad burrito. I order it with no rice and tell them easy in the beans. Hits the spot!

I was next door at LAXpress Van Rental and asked the guy if the taco place next door was any good? He said he eats a turkey burger for lunch every day. So I ordered a burger and 2– chicken tacos. I have to say, family owned restaurants know what they are doing, the chicken tacos were great. Fresh food! I’ll be back for sure…

Burgers were okay. No flavor in the meat. Chilli-​cheese fries lack chilli and cheese. Good service and fast if you don’t want to wait too long; does have the convenience of a drive through window.

Love their burgers!

Stopped here to try Mexican drive thru at a place other than Taco Bell. Although the building and structure appears quite scary and run down, they have an A in the window and that’s what I went off of.
I was greeted by a young spunky chap with personality plus. Later found out it was the owners son… no better service that what’s offered at a family-​run biz.
He told me they were known for their tacos, burgers, and chili fries. He was very helpful and patient. I ordered tacos for myself & my husband. They were generously portioned and very flavorful.
Great service & great food. I will definitely be returning again.

Carne asada burrito, rich in meat, onions, light on cilantro. The meat pieces could have been larger chunks. It was surely fresh because it was very hot to hold.
The horchata was a bit too sweet and sugary.

I’ve been trying to find relatively fast & decent Mexican take-​out near the airport for when I drop off friends, rather than fighting traffic hungry. This place is rather misleading. One expects something called «Taco Fiesta» would serve Mexican food, for a start. Instead most items on the menu are diner-​type breakfasts and burgers. Service was fast and fairly polite. Most items inexpensive. I ordered large nachos with steak as most likely to be semi-​authentic. I mean, it’s LA, right? I got home and opened the box to find something most closely resembling theater nachos: generic Tostito-​like chips with sliced jalapenos, nacho «cheese» sauce (aka processed orange goo), and small chunks of overdone grilled beef. The chips were soggy. Not even sour cream or salsa, much less beans or actual cheese. Judging from the pictures on the menu, this is probably typical. Too bad. I’ll have to keep looking for good takeout near LAX.

As the daughter of the owner of Taco Fiesta, I can tell you that the first review really disappointed me. I can tell you, first hand, that the ‘dirty grill’ as stated, has never been an issue. My father is very liked in the neighborhood because of his integrity and cleanliness. Melo’s burgers, recently, have offered to sell their business to him because they can’t compete with Taco Fiesta anymore.
The new ‘order takers’ are family, and are very happy to serve a delicious taco or burger, whatever your cravings are.
I love when people use the whole ‘fraction of the price’ statement. Unfortunately, items and delivery cost more; therefore, inflating prices and Taco Fiesta has no inflation’s going on. We strive to maintain a very decent, adequate pricing for the amount and quality of food you’re receiving.
The tacos are EXCELLENT, and we’ve been running out of EVERYTHING, almost every night. That should give a good idea of what the quality of the food is.

Burger #110: The Wrong Burger
I don’t know what happened, but somehow I got confused and wound up at the wrong burger joint. I was trying to make my way to Melo Burger and when I was approaching where it should have been, I saw a tall sign with my favorite seven letters, «Burgers.» But when I entered the burger/​Mexican food joint, I didn’t see any signage of where I actually was! Only after I left and was able to study the run down sign did I discover I was at Fiesta Taco! Oh well, they still had burgers.
I ordered a bacon double cheese burger with fries and a horchata. I found myself a sunny booth and waited eight minutes for my food. When it came, it looked as I expected;
But when I began to eat it was slightly better than meh. It was somehow very satisfying and quenched my burger craving perfectly. The meat wasn’t very special but they bacon was superbly crisp and melded well with the melting cheese. The shredded lettuce and spread cut the grease and provided a perfect harmony of flavors.
Beyond that, the fries were meh and the horchata was not homemade. Later, when I was viewing my pictures, I discovered my burger was a little dirty;
I highly doubt those black specs are pepper or seasonings, but I don’t care. Dirty grills just add extra flavor! Despite the good time I had, I will not be coming back.
