"If you're even slightly in the mood for tacos in Eagle Rock, all roads lead to Angel's. This sidewalk operation has multiple tents with people chopping juicy al pastor off a Titanic-sized trompo and plopping piles of the smoky meat into handmade tortillas. There's no seating whatsoever, so most people park in the nearby Target lot and eat their Tijuana-style tacos under the street lights. Whatever you decide, don't come here in a rush. Wait times can be over thirty minutes during peak dinner hours. " - brant cox, nikko duren

"Drive down Sunset in Echo Park on any given night, and you'll see a long line forming at this casual taco stand. It’s a serious sidewalk operation complete with al pastor on a spit and a respectable salsa bar. We’re huge fans of both the smoky grilled asada and the juicy al pastor with a flick of pineapple, and no matter what you order, you can easily spend less than $10 on dinner here. Take your tacos just up the hill to Everett Park and eat on the grass with great views of the DTLA skyline." - Nikko Duren
"As much as you love (and support) your neighborhood taco truck, if you’re trying to mix things up tonight, look no further than Angel’s Tijuana Tacos. The Mexican taquero has four different locations throughout the city (each with varying opening times) so be sure to check their Instagram before you head over to the al pastor haven. Cut straight from a beautiful, glistening trompo out front, the pork here is soft and succulent, but never too fatty, and is topped with an excellent mix of cilantro, onions, avocado salsa, and just a dash of pineapple. Get the cheese-filled vampiro, if you’re feeling indulgent." - Kat Hong
"Angel’s Tijuana Tacos is actually run by the same team as Tacos El Venado, though they tend to focus on different neighborhoods. The new-ish Eagle Rock location rocks from dusk until late night, often playing to very long lines." - Farley Elliott
