" I was looking for a great taco place and this one has amazing reviews. I tried the tacos al pastor and they were solid but didn’t blow me away. I enjoyed them, but my expectations were set too high, I think. I'd be open to trying more dishes next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" The tacos at Los Famosos are definitely good, but honestly, I've had better in other parts of LA. I still enjoyed my food, but I think there's room for improvement in flavor and service. I might give them another try down the line. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been coming here for years; it’s like visiting family. The staff is so friendly, and they always remember my order. The plum salsa is spicy and delicious. I recommend it along with the tacos al pastor. Such a wonderful experience every time! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved this place! The carne asada burrito is a must-try, rich in flavor and generously packed. It's always busy, which says a lot about its popularity! Just remember to bring cash, as they don't take cards. " (*Curated Review*)

" The tacos de birria are the star of the menu! So flavorful and comforting. The handmade tortillas elevate the experience even further. I highly recommend this place for anyone seeking authentic Mexican street food. " (*Curated Review*)
