20 Best Classic Los Angeles Restaurants Every Angeleno Must Try | Eater LA

"Bill’s is a South LA legend just below Downtown and focuses primarily on one thing: the cheeseburger taco. It’s a mashup made purely for Los Angeles, the kind of last-century dining innovation that made perfect sense. The orange and yellow corner location is stuffed with old photos of days gone by, and the cheeseburger taco still beckons all who come in, some 74 years later." - Matthew Kang

Honestly, i have a love hate relationship with Bills. The restaurant is so old, outdated, seems dirty, and the food is so unhealthy, BUT, man do i love this classic place. The food has tasted the same since I was a kid and my mom says the same when she was a kid. It's feel good food that hits so many spots that i HAVE to keep coming back! I have left LA but anytime I'm there visiting family or driving through i must stop here. Now for the food, heavy, saucy, tasty, messy, super good. I only ever get two things there, the Silva Burrito no beans and an order of fries. The burritos are huge, meat is tasty, and the gravy sauce is a must. Bills is definitely something of it's own caliber, you probably have never tasted something like it, based off seeing exotic cars and beater up cars lining up to get the food, something tells me you'll most likely be back. Enjoy and don't expect this place as anything fancy at all! Just dang good food!

Went to bills and expected it to be just like on slauson and Crenshaw. The service was nice but the food idk. Idk if it was the tomatoes or the sauce but it was nasty. I ate two tacos because they were good but it had a horrible after taste and my stomach is now pounding. I would I go back? Probably most def not.

Was really excited to eat at such a historical spot and the service was great but the food was just OK. Not bad at all but also not something I feel the need to back for. Got the 3 taco special...the sauce is great and they use hamburger patties for the meat. Definitely greasy and would probably taste bet if eaten hot.

I've been eating Bills since before I was physically born. From the one on MLK, the one on Slauson, even when they had one on Manchester where the donut shop is now. And now this one. It's clean, setup nice, and the food is alright. However, what is missing is the OG guys that worked the Slauson location. The one in the Nipsey video the other guy and the one guy that is left. Somebody left with the recipes...it just doesn't taste the same after all these years it was exactly the same but it's changed and the only thing I can think is somebody knew the actual recipe. I used to eat Bill's at least once a week now maybe once every few months. Bring the other guys back.

This is one place I will never eat hear again this place is dirty and the tacos are horrible I rather eat Taco Bell and I don’t like them either this is not Mexican food who put American cheese slices on tacos just down right disgusting. Never again. I use to like Bills back in the 70’s and 80’s the food is not the same . This is how I received my taco

Ok...Lets talk about "bottom of the barrel" tacos made from hamburger patties! It's like eating Mexican food made at a donut shop. And nothing - lettuce, salsa, cilianto, and onions - are no where near fresh. Man, these tacos (I ordered three but only ate one because they taste like...) made me a little bit uncomfortable. My only suggestion is "don't go to this whole in the wall - and if you do go to Bill's..."Bring your own toilet paper and dont say I didn't tell you so!!
