Boyle Heights’ Legendary La Azteca Tortilleria to Shutter Original Location | Eater LA

"A more-than-50-year-old restaurant and tortilleria is relocating from its longtime Caesar Chavez Boulevard spot on June 13 to a permanent second location less than two miles away at Atlantic and Beverly Boulevards, signaling the end of an historic Boyle Heights space rather than a full closure. The family-run operation — purchased by Cynthia Hernandez and her parents Candy and Juan Villa in 2010 — is known for long lines, a massive flour tortilla-making operation directly behind the ordering counter, and its signature chile relleno burritos; the family opened the second location in 2023 after learning the landlord was considering selling the property." - Mona Holmes
