The 38 Best Restaurants in Los Angeles

"Open a smartphone map and type the following search: “Leo’s Tacos Truck locations.” Prepare to see 10 red dots scattered throughout the Southland, with the northernmost parked in Pacoima and as far south as Long Beach and Wilmington. The fleet is also in Florence, Echo Park, Baldwin Hills, and, iconically, at the Mid-City corner of La Brea Avenue and Venice Boulevard. On Friday or Saturday nights (or potentially any day), the entire corner transforms into a pleasantly busy outdoor taco stand in the Sinclair Gas Station parking lot. Similar festive vibes permeate all its locations, where staff prepare consistently excellent al pastor and show deft knife skills as they remove slices of marinated pork and pineapple from a giant spit onto a tortilla. The taste is just as satisfying, whether opting for the al pastor, carne asada, or chorizo in taco, burrito, or mulita form. Always wash the meal down with a cold Jarritos soda, horchata, or the deliciously sweet jamaica steeped with hibiscus flowers. — Mona Holmes, reporter" - Eater Staff
