First time here, and it was amazing. Authentic Mexican food, fast service, and great flavor. Spices on point!

The chicharon is freaking outstanding! It might creep up on the spicy index… but who cares, right!

We went because it supposedly had great menudo. I sadly must disagree, the meat tasted a bit off, a flavor that I had NEVER tasted before, I didn’t finish the menudo due to the off taste of the meat(gross), to be honest it was not my cup of tea. I will say that the barbacoa was very good and I should have just just ordered that, beans and rice were tasty. I doubt we’ll be back, parking is street.

Favorite homemade Mexican food in the area! You can judge it on the surface based on the demographic on a Sunday which is almost entirely latino families who you know are more than capable of cooking equivalent food at home.

Bought Menudo to go. Very good but the tripe was cut into HUGE pieces. It came with all the fixins too. I actually don’t eat the tripe but my mom and dad had some work to do! I want to try more food from them. Family run which is always a plus.

Amazing homemade Mexican food. The building appearance made me hesitate to go in, the reviews propelled me through the door, the food and service captured me. Waitstaff were friendly and welcoming and our food came out very fast. We loved the menudo, chicharon taco, and mojado asada burrito. Everything had the perfect amount of flavor and spiciness. The restaurant was PACKED. At almost every table there was at least 1 person who ordered the menudo.

This is the best Mexican food in LA. Everything we had was THEBEST. The best pickled spicy carrots, the best chile relleno, the best birria(except possibly Birria Lalo’s), spectacular horchata. We wanted to order everything on the menu and spend all day enjoying it! This place is a good mine of classic and perfectly prepared Mexican food and the crowd of people lined out the door on Sunday mornings shows it’s no secret!

We found this on the way from one place to another. The Unilocal God suggested it, so we stopped by and are glad we did! The flavors were clean and bright and the service was sweet. I loved the chile verde as well as the bites I took from my wife’s al pastor taco.

If you are looking for a warm home-cook«Abuelita’s» Meal, you have to come to Tres Cochinitos!!! As soon as u come inside the restaurant, you are greeted with a «Buenos Dias». I love coming on Saturday Mornings for a plate of «Birria» with«Café de Olla». This place is small and cozy, You definitely feel like home. I guarantee u leave here with a smile of satisfaction.

Food is so good. In Lincoln Heights, a little rough neighborhood, but if ur nearby, have to drop in for a bite. Fred loved the carne asana taco. They gave me 3 chick enchiladas for my order. Return visits for sure!!!

A great hole in the wall! Came here for lunch with my mom before my doctors apt at the USC Keck center. I had the chorizo breakfast and my mom had carnitas sopes. We both loved our food it was extremely flavorful! Super authentic.

One of the most legit Mexican restaurants in the area for sure! Came here on a Sunday morning around 8 and the place was full but I was able to order the minute I walked inside. Straight up looks like a remodeled house but the food was amazing! The people working the cash register and behind the grill were really friendly. Asked for a menu and ordered a carne asada burrito and it only cost me $ 6.54. They had tacos, menudo and other stuff at good prices as well. It was cash only but the price was definitely worth it. Pretty nice size burrito(close to a Chipotle size burrito) and tasted great! Really nice flavor on the protein mixed in with rice, beans, onions and cilantro. I think it was one of the best burritos I’ve had in a really long time! I would definitely recommend this place to a friend! The hours only go from 6am to 3pm but it’s definitely worth getting up for. I’m for sure coming back here again real soon!

The best menudo around. Really small place though. So get there early or take it to go. Either way, super good at a GREAT price.

Tres Cochinitos is a great Mexican restaurant. Talk about authentic!!! Great selection of choices: burritos, dopes, tacos, etc. My personal favorite is their chile verde burritos! Meat is perfectly cooked with the combination of the green chili is amazing! They cook it on Mondays for the week so don’t go in Monday morning expecting one, won’t be ready until close to closing. Service is great! Workers are really sweet and genuine. The cooks are not behind closed doors. So you can really see what’s going into your food is authentic and unaltered. Great place to eat.

Today was my first time at Los Tres Cichinitos. I love the friendly and family environment. Fast serves with a smile. My Husband ordered the Huevos rancheros and he ate it all the way saying Yummyyyy. I ordered the Nopales with Huevos. The Nopales are not from a can. I normally don’t like beans but that was the first thing I finished, it was that good. The rice was not hard like some Mexican restaurants. It was fluffy and has a great flavor to it. This is the place to get real Home made Mexican family food. I recommend this place to anyone that enjoys great Mexican food. Buen Provecho!!!

This place is legit Mexican food. Keep in mind this place looks like a remodeled house-restaurant. I came here on a Sunday morning at 9:30, I was lucky and got a seat. By 9:45am, there was a huge wait. We got 2 tacos, sopes de lengua, a cheese tamale and a large menudo. I also got a cup of coffee, which was an amazing choice because it was Mexican coffee! It had a hint of cinnamon! The food was great and delicious. The sope was crispy and the lengua was soft. The service was a bit slow but the food was fantastic. If you order the tamales and menudo, they come out fast. We saw multiple families coming in with pots and filling them up and leaving, it was pretty family oriented. You need to pay up at the front, cash only I believe.

This place is great. I come here every other month or so. The name of this restaurant makes me laugh every time. I asked one of the ladies what the story was behind the name but she had no clue. Ha. Anyway, this place is perfect for breakfast. Inexpensive. Their tacos are very cheap and very good. I love the barbacoa tacos. Should definitely try the Huevos rancheros and chilaquiles. Good stuff.

Came for the Menudo and ended up getting a little tongue action. Well… in the form of some lengua tacos. Also wanted to get all up in dem guts but alas they do not serve tripas. Wow, your mind is always in the gutter.

Definitely a hole in the wall kind of place. The food was good and so was the customer service. When I go to a Mexican restaurant that I haven’t been to before I like to order enchiladas. A simple and delicioso dish. I’ve had enchiladas from many places and not everyone can get it right. This place on the other hand only does green, but they were definitely some of the best. I’m not sure and didn’t think to ask, but I believe the lady was making hand made tortillas so I order a taco de barbacoa. It too is one of the best tacos I have ever had. The meat was so flavorful and tender, melts in your mouth. I will definitely be coming here again when I’m around this area and not in the mood to cooking. Btw cash only and street parking only. It wasn’t hard to find street parking. :)
