"Culichis show up on weekends for soulful bowls of menudo blanco (white menudo) chock-full of beef tripe, stomach, and silky tendon, just like back home, and one of the best bowls of menudo in town. For others it’s spicy chilorio (braised pork in red salsa), or fibrous strands of juicy machaca (beef jerky), accompanied by pale, creamy frijoles puercos (refried beans in lard and chorizo)." - Bill Esparza

Been here dozens of times food was amazing back then waitresses have never changed they have the same little attitude but food was really good. Now we have to deal with the waitresses attitudes and the food has changed. I’ve been here a couple times in the past maybe year we paid over $100. Food not too good we ordered Tamales and they tasted a little old and had a little smell like it was going bad already and we ordered the machaca and the machaca wasn’t cooked properly Gad huge chunks of machaca and vegetables like horrible. I’m Sinaloense so I know how that machaca should really looks nice and thin already cooked and served. My worse $100+ spent here. And it wasn’t busy so I was like maybe they were just lazy to cook my machaca right and cut the vegetables properly. Never going back! ;(

Fist time stopping at this restaurant and will be the last time. Waitresses were rude as soon as we sat on the table, We ordered 2 drinks and got the wrong ones. Waited for a long time to get our food and we’re. We got it it was already cold. PRICES IN THE MENU ARE NOT UPDATED!! I asked the waitress about it and she got very mad and defensive about the prices telling me she forgot to mention the prices on the menu have not been updated. She spoke to the owner and he told her to give us the menu prices. She was still so hateful saying she was not gonna discount $1 for the beans cause I didn’t ask about it. I never knew I was supposed to ask if the prices on the the card were the most updated ones or not. I have never had such bad service at a restaurant before and then when you try to talk to employees they make ugly faces at customers cause they don’t want to hear any complaints. I didn’t have a problem paying for whatever she wanted to charge me but the fact that she made it a huge ordeal about the price is what made me write this post. I will never ever go to this restaurant again and I’ll make sure I tell people I know about my experience there.

Good food, coffee was a bit too watered down for me. Prices are way more expensive it was $75 😳for 3 basic breakfast/lunch meals but then again everything is pricey nowadays. Ok service, blonde haired lady has a bit of an attitude.

We waited 45 minutes for our food, the prices are too much for the little food they give you, the beef tostadas were plain and the meat tasted rotten. They serve you so little. We eat outside and the tables where dirty full of flies over others left overs. Ridiculous never again!! I asked for flour tortillas they give me corn, like come on

First time here did not know what to expect from this restaurant. I order the chilaquiles and they were great. Will be visiting soon.

asado is fireeeee. Frijoles puercos are bomb! The agua de jamaica no se diga! Great location and they service quick.

It was years since I have come to sinaloense and I was a bit skeptical coming because of all the bad reviews but I am so glad I came in anyway. Everything was absolutely amazing, if you're expecting a full table service restaurant it's not. You order your food at the counter, they give you a number and you sit at a table and someone brings you your order and if you need to ask for anything, you do have to go to the front counter for anything you may need or if you catch the servers around your table but honestly the food makes up for it and it's really not an inconvenience for us. Everything we needed was pretty much on our table. The food was excellent! We ordered the chicken enchiladas, tostadas de rez and the asado. We have also ordered the machaca con verdura and their tamales in the past and they were really good. The kids really liked the rice so we ordered more rice and tortillas for them. The chocomil is still really good also. The inside is all booths and the back booths have chairs so it was easy for us to move the chairs and place high chairs for our two toddlers. This place is a 5 out of 5! Really don't understand the ratings but definitely coming back to try their tacos dorados, carne asada plate and their sopes!

9This restaurant "WAS" a good place to eat Sinaloense food, however the food quality has gone down the drain, for the last couple of years this restaurant has been getting worse. I decided to give it a last chance they totally disappoint me, the Asado was days old and they admitted that me which i was surprised, the meat was hard and dark. I would not come back ever again and i wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. The staff was rude when i asked for my money back although they admitted the food was old and they needed permission to refund me. I paid and aleedt the food on the table. Was very disappointed. To the owner i suggest you close it down, your deceiving customers. NOT FRESH AT ALL!!!! DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY OR TIME!!!!!! Even the salsa they gave me was old that the top was popping up of it

I came here for Fathers Day around 11am with my family and I'm going to start off by saying how the lady at the register short kind of skinny with a pony tail light hair Hispanic I think shouldn't be working there she has no patience and has a bothered face we felt rushed and not welcomed. The food was good but with a service like that definitely not coming to the Huntington Park location again. People like that are going to ruin your business and give customers a bad first impression and experience.

La comida está buena pero el servicio de todas las señoras es pésimo! Siempre traen una cara de que odian su trabajo. No les recomiendo este lugar. Está mejor el Sinaloa express en la Tweedy blvd. la gente muy amable ahí. Como un verdadero Sinaloense.

Do not come here if you don't speak Spanish. I've tried the paramount location and the food is good. So I thought I'd try this location since I was in town. Unfortunately my kids and I turned around due to the unfriendliness of the staff.

Yelp
La comida esta bien. El servicio fue mediocre. La mesera y cajera platica y platica sobre cosas vulgares. Ni saludan a uno al verlo parado. No te explican que ordenas primero y te vas a sentar después y tienen una muy mala actitud. Los precios son exagerados! Te llevas una sorpresa al pagar al último. Por esa razón no tienen precios ningún menú. La verdad me siento estafado! No lo puedo creer! Que pésima experiencia.

I convinced my husband to take to this restaurant after seeing it pop up on my instagram. For starters the set up is really odd. Parking lot accommodates at most 3 cars. The second is the ordering process. *This is not a sit down, let me take your order* rather you order with the people at the front and receive a number to wait for your table outside. The waiting area is not huge outside. Once your number is called you are seated and everything you ordered comes out to your table. Once our food was taken out we were never greeted after or checked up on. So if you want to order a drink, chances are you might have to ask at the front. Food: Menudo blanco was amazing! Huevos rancheros - did not come with frijoles puercos. Not sure if this is per request but not like the pictures. Chomils- good Prices: for two plates listed above and two drinks we paid $57 dollars Never received a receipt with what each plate cost. To get a receipt was a lengthy process. *Make sure you grab your recent because they add a type of gratuity which was not mentioned in the total they gave me* Would I come back? Probably not. Staff were very rushed, not welcoming, prices are not clear, and "restaurant" set up is disorganized.

First time trying Sinaloense food. It was very delicious. Tried the sopes with beef and we also tried the machaca. The food was amazing, starting from Salsas, beans, rice etc. the service was excellent as well! Highly recommend for some authentic Sinaloense food. The have a lot of options from breakfast to lunch/dinner!

Roberto A.

Yelp
Good taste (not great, just okay), and a bit overpriced. $25 for a Torta de Pierna and a Quesadilla de Asada. You judge the sizes and decide after you buy them. They didn't even give my full change, total came up to $24 and cents, gave them a $50 bill and they returned $25. Not even tried to give me my change.

La verdad con mal servicio con el cliente es mi primera vez en este restaurante, pero me he llevado la peor desilusión. Creo que no regreso más pedí un café y nunca me lo llevaron las meseras Super mal. Yo no sé el dueño donde estará metido que no tiene control Del restaurante, no sé cómo todavía es tu restaurante puedan estar trabajando con este servicio tan malo y la gente poder venir a comer. Claro no entiendo ese servicio pésimo dónde estará el dueño que no controla su negocio, si por nosotros todavía sigue funcionando. La comida está sabrosa, pero te desgraciadamente el servicio muy malo. Entonces no puedo dar más estrellas más que una.

Estoy seguro de que la comida es buena, pero desafortunadamente ni siquiera la probamos debido al mal servicio y la mala actitud. Nunca nos recibieron a la llegada, ten en cuenta que estaba prácticamente vacío, había más empleados que clientes. La señora de la caja registradora tuvo la peor actitud, no se molestó en mirarnos a los ojos mientras nos hablaba y dijo un comentario grosero y decidimos irnos. Vinimos al restaurante Guajillo, donde el servicio ha sido increíble y la comida esta deliciosa.

Stopped by on a Wednesday afternoon and they weren't busy but they had like 10 people sitting down. It's a small place inside. We walked in and nobody said hi to us or told us how to order we thought we had to sit down but you actually order at the counter and then sit down. I was thrown off guard because the menu on top of the register is very limited but they have a bigger menu (booklet status). I ordered the chocomilk and that was delicious! 10/10 The pork in salsa roja was okay 7/10 I just wish I would've got a little more rice and beans since the cold macaroni salad didn't come with. Tortillas were Amazon as well I believe they're hand made! I would go back to try the food I just wish the workers were nicer they act like they don't acknowledge you but to some of the other customers they're all smiling and laughing together and checking up on them.

Bad food and super bad service. The waitresses were screaming at each other and complaining about their job.

Don't come here , bad customer service the old lady with blonde hair she is so RUDE. She talks to you like you're dumb. Try other locations but not the one on State. If I could give 0 stars I would.

So I finally gave this restaurant a try last week. I went in for breakfast and right away, I was already disappointed. The restaurant is small inside. Their parking lot was small and it was packed. Once I walked in, I was confused, I was thinking I had to wait to get seated and a waitress would come assist you. Turns out, you order your own food at the register and you pay once done. The lady at the register didn't seem too friendly, wasn't even welcoming. The food was okay, I was disappointed, small portions. Overall, I would not recommend this place, especially if you're looking for a date night spot.

Ashley G.

Yelp
DO NOT COME HERE! Unless you want to be treated like a ghost then be my guest. When you walk-in, the waitresses and the cashier just stare at you and give you the side eye. The food is whatever's and the prices are never set to one price. They will charge you whatever they want. Just make yourself a favor and try another place Fun fact: I found a hair on my chilaquiles

Derrick L.

Yelp
Went here recently when I visited the LA area aI use to live close by in Norwalk, CA the young lady at the front mumbled a cuss word in Spanish! My sister in law called her out on the profanity! Then table service was rude I asked for another drink and the waitress ignored me completely with disregard. The food was very unflavored, the hard tacos were very greasy! An the table was not even cleaned for us or sanitized crumbs all over and sticky. I highly recommend NOT going here I've gave it a few times and this was my last time.BEWARE!!

This place use to be my favorite spot y no se que paso. Las trabajadoras son bien sangronas te ven con mala cara. La comida esta carísima and its small portions. $9 por una agua de cebada!! $100 por 3 platos se pasan. Quality definitely went down. Mi plato de barbacoa had no potatoes. I dont think ill be going there anymore

Crystal N.

Yelp
The food is really really freaking good it taste authentic sinaloense love their frijoles puercos the menudo sometimes is smelly but is good What i hate about this place is their freaking service every single female that works their have nooooooo freaking sense of customer service i think the owner has to work on getting more workers with more respect to customers and more sympathy but food is good service does suck I will still eat but would prefer to see them more nicer to customers

Giggity ..

Yelp
El "Sinaloense"? More like El "Sala-dense"... this place was good 10 yrs ago before fake/wanna be Sinaloense's burned this spot. You're welcome! You want real Sinaloa food? Go to Sinaloa, or ask your mom to make it for you... (that's, of course, if you're from Sinaloa) FYI I'm from there!

Pris V.

Yelp
Just tried this spot and will not be returning. You order up front and then sit down with a number and wait. Younger girl upfront had a bad attitude. We got one order of chilaquiles verdes and another order of chilaquiles rojos as well as two chocomilks. Few minutes after sitting down, the waitress came around calling a number (that wasn't ours) and then was like "didn't you guys order this" like yeah we did but you were calling out a different number so why would I have been claiming it. Chilaquiles had no flavor so we decided to add the salsa they put on the table but it didn't have any flavor either. Rice tasted old and beans had a slight burn taste to them. The chocomilks were good. It was also super expensive, $60 for our meal and bad service.

To start off, the waitresses are very rude. First time there, and no one attended us. We had to ask another customer if we had to sit ourselves or if we had to wait. We had to seat ourselves not a problem. We sit waitress comes to ask us if we really needed two menues. We were a party of 4 I think two menues were needed. Asked for a high chair, never got it. Got up to ask for one, and they just pointed to where the high chairs were at. Grabbed one, sat back down. We sat for a good 30 min, and no one bothered coming to us. But yet others, I guess the regulars, were attended fast and nicely. I guess this place doesn't like new customers. Would comment on the food, but we never got to order because we left. So unless you are a friend of this establishment or you are famous you will get attended. Don't even bother coming here. EXTREMELY RUDE!!!!

Yelp
If I can give this place 0 stars I would definitely do it!! I asked for chilaquiles verdes con huevo estrellado. Got my plate the rice was uncooked the beans were cold, the tortillas were not cooked and last but not least my EGG!!! Was pretty much a hard boiled egg. I told the lady she looked pissed... also the bottle cokes are flat. The ladies that work here either live a very miserable life and bring all their frustrations here and take it out on their customers. Place is TRASH

Kae R.

Yelp
The green chilaquiles were great, food was not an issue everything was good except the service was horrible! They need a whole new staff if we're being honest they're all always angry and will get mad if you ask questions. I got there did not you had to order first then sit down, workers just stare at you with the nastiest look without asking if you need help, cashier was also rude. I don't understand why so much attitude with all the workers. Food was great but will not be coming back maybe just for take out!!!

Patricia M.

Yelp
My family and I have been coming here for years and we love the sopes (either chicken or beef)! You must drench them in the consome (broth) and red salsa they provide, soo good! We always order them with a side of avocado too! My family is from Culiacan and sopes here are even better! Don't forget to buy/try some corricos (cookies) too!

Elizabeth P.

Yelp
Restaurant has multiple items they do not serve , claim they only serve it at their other restaurant however it's not noted on the menu . (Why is it even on the menu on the first place if not offered ) The customer service is terrible , the young lady that works the front is super rude . ( rude facial expressions and mumbling things under her breathe ) not family friendly wouldn't recommend. Food was gross , tasted like it had been sitting in old oil for days .

Strange S.

Yelp
I was unsatisfied with their service. I placed an order of potato tacos and received beef tacos and I notified the cashier and she told me the potato tacos contain beef. I told her I'm a vegetarian. She didn't try fixing the fact that they made a mistake and on my receipt it stated beef tacos not potato tacos. Smh. They need to improve their customer services.

Yelp
Their mashaca is delicious, however every single time I go all the women there have the most nastiest and the most unwelcoming attitudes. Ironically, a waitress was complaining to another to her coworker about how people don't tip. Excuse me, but who would want to tip people with negative attitude for no reason. So this is my experience, I was ready to pay and their was no one in line. The lady behind the register never acknowledged me, a man came in and she had the audacity to tell him "Como le puedo ayudar" (how may I help you) he looked at her and said she's infront of me (me). Exactly! Hello. I felt invisible. I handed her my card to pay and she didn't apologize or say a word to me. She slammed my card on my hand and proceeded to ignore and continued to welcome the man she tried letting cut infront of me. Ridiculous. Good food. Trash attitude and service from every single person that works there.

The tostadas are genuine ! They taste as if I'm in Sinaloa ! Great taste and very friendly people!

Solid Mexican food, Sinaloa style. I mean my mom cooks 100% better, but this is cool to satisfy tostada cravings. She approves it. So I guess that must mean something.

Patricia M.

Yelp
Food is good. My favorite are the sopes and quesadillas Only reason why it is a 4 star is because parking is small and it get pretty crowded

Martha H.

$9 for a CHOCOLATE MILK. They don't even have their prices posted probably for the same reason... bc they're ridiculous.

It's expensive now and small portions. It's good food, I used to look forward to be in the area to eat here, but $30 for a torta and chilaquiles!? No... and i got the smallest serving of rice and beans!

Carolina C.

Yelp
Best Sinaloense food I've had!!! We had the asado plate, tacos dorados with beef & potatoes, frijoles puercos, and the pumpkin empanadas were also to die for! Service was outstanding. We will definitely be coming back very soon! I was so excited to actually try it after following Instagram page for a long time it was totally worth the wait. Thank you!!

We placed an order for tamales three days prior and when we went to pick them up they didn't have them ready. Then we were told to pick them up later that day the tamales were undercooked.

Virginia M.

Yelp
A friend brought us menudo a while back and we loved it. She told us it was from this place so we went back today and ordered two menudos to go. When we got home we started to eat it but there was as weird smell to it and it tasted awful!!! Disgusting!! My mom said it tasted ahomado. We looked around in it and surely we found a burnt piece of menudo. I think this is what ruined the whole plate. Never coming here again! Especially because the service was horrible, their cokes were $4 each, and denied my request to refund the sodas. All because they "didn't" know how to use the system! I know they have to know how. I've worked at a restaurant before and at least one of them has to know how to work the register correctly.

extremely rude!!!!!!!!!!!! waitress always bad and rude scream at you when you ask for something always with a rude face horrible horrible service and give you the food cold to top it off please get better people to work here

Food overall 3.5/5 Customer Service 1/5 -Walked in asked if we sit or order first the cashier was loud and yelled at us to order there. -She was cleaning her NAILS the whole time we ordered -we asked if we could add a meat to our breakfast plate and she was so rude about -rolled her eyes, smacking her gum when we asked about the menu -she seriously ruined our experience here won't be coming back, Lack lots of customer service TRAINING!

Authentic Mexican restaurant the cashier is really nice and friendly but the waiter seemed very aggravated I don't know if she was having a bad day or overworked. I would come again because the food was definitely worth it!

No recomiendo este lugar . Yo soy del Salado Sinaloa , y nunca avía provado una barbacoa tan sin sabor y simple ; no tenia papas, no tenia zanahoria , no tenia aceitunas , no viene con queso fresco , no viene con sopa fría . Es primera ves que vengo aquí y última ves . Prefiero mucho mejor el Sinaloa express en South Gate ca . Pero quisimos probar este lugar y no salió como esperábamos .

Really bad service customer service bad attitude rude like if your asking for free food when you are paying for it no tables for handicapped or parking for handicapped supper rude
