"Hadley Tomicki (Co-Founder, L.A. TACO) applauds the leadership’s community focus, writing, "It’s inspiring to watch Keith Corbin and Daniel Patterson continue to focus on community outreach through cooking and the restaurant business, including reopening [the restaurant] as a nonprofit, and announcing plans to expand on this work with the opening of [a new location] on West Third Street in 2025." Matthew Kang (Lead Editor, Eater Southern California/Southwest) also reflected on the pivot: "I really enjoyed seeing the turn that [the restaurant] took to reopen as a community-focused nonprofit, though I wonder if even those efforts will stick unless people gravitate toward it." - Eater Staff
