Guisados

Mmmmmmmm, tacos! (Insert Homer Simpson ahhhhhh and drool here). Who doesn’t love a taco? I mean it’s the perfect food, and the perfect way to get meats and veggies into your mouth. And goodness, does @guisados have some epic tacos (and other goodies too). I’ve been living in Singapore for 6 years, and happened to be in LA visiting family and was craving amazing Mexican food, and Guisados had amazing reviews all over the place, so we headed in for some tacos. I really loved everything they served … the tacos were so well done, we loved all the fillings but the mole poblano and the cochinita pibil were my faves. The Melon water and the arnaldo palmero were also super tasty drinks and not too sweet. This location also has tamales, so we got 2 for sharing. Fluffy and I really loved the green rajas filing. They also have a salsa bar with tastes for everyone. Super friendly staff who explained everything to us in detail (I don’t do cilantro so they were able to tell me what I could and couldn’t order). Overall awesome experience, highly recommend!

More than 5 stars - fair prices for the area, good quality. The weenie was surprising delicious. Corn tortillas were tasty. People working are helpful and genuinely friendly. Clean. So glad I came!

Stopped by Guisados Venice Beach and tried a mix of tacos — everything came out fresh, flavorful, and authentic. The sampler plate is a great way to try different guisados; highlights for me were the braised beef and the chicken tinga, both packed with flavor and just the right spice. I also ordered the nopal taco — simple but really tasty with grilled cactus, onion, and salsa that gave it a fresh, earthy balance. Tortillas are handmade and hold up perfectly to the fillings. Service was quick and casual, and the vibe fits Venice well. Prices are fair for the quality, and portions are satisfying without being over the top. Definitely worth stopping in if you’re craving real-deal tacos beyond the typical Venice options.

Loved their melon drink! Tried their vegetarian platter and tacos which were yummy! Staff is super friendly !

Don’t miss this place if you love an authentic, tasty bite of corn tortillas filled with your choice of steak, chicken, fish or veggies! Easily missed on the street since it’s tucked back in a corner. Outside seating. Clean and super friendly greeting

The variety of tacos, the flavours, the quality of the food in general, great tortillas, the right amount of spiciness in the salsas and the coffee horchata completed a delicious meal in a fabulous area near Venice Beach

Best tacos hands down. The kitchen is observable and it’s cool to watch the fresh tortillas being made. Busy and popular but wait time was not long. Would recommend to everyone 🤤

The fresh tortillas were amazing :)) the staff was super friendly and the tacos were so good! The parking is a little difficult but it’s so worth it!! I got the sampler plate to try out multiple tacos and I would highly recommend it.
