"Right off the main drag in East Compton, Antojitos Los Cuates is known for tostadas, flautas, and pozole blanco, made with a savory clear broth instead of the usual red. This Jalisco-style restaurant is about the size of an average dining room, so if you eat inside you’ll feel like a guest of the family that runs the place. Which makes sense, because this is homestyle cooking at its absolute finest: Our favorite item is the incredible tostada mixta, which involves a special puffy tostada heaped with marinated pork cold cuts, cabbage, salsa, and queso cotija, though the tacos dorados with picadillo and mole enchiladas are commendable runners-up.
