The 38 Best Tacos in Los Angeles | Eater LA

"Chef Enrique Olvera’s industrial-hip back patio taquería operates under the direction of chef de cuisine Chuy Cervantes. The destination taquería serves a concise menu of upscale traditional tacos on phenomenal handmade corn tortillas. The star attraction is the in-house nixtamal program that makes corn tortillas for Ditroit and Damian, using corn sourced from Masienda. Grab a margarita or michelada and order as many tacos as you can eat. A thin-cut taco de suadero (beef cut from the belly) comes with a chunky salsa roja and guacachile (a spicy avocado salsa). Tender carnitas are topped with crumbled chicharrón. The vegetarian taco of the day could be a papas al pastor with chunks of pineapple, or beer-battered tempura eggplant covered in fine-shredded cabbage, cream, and salsa verde. Whatever the case, every taco here comes on thin, pliable, delicious corn tortillas that are among the best in town." - Bill Esparza
