Taco Nazo

This is a California institution for authentic Baja style tacos, specializing in fish and shrimp tacos. The staff is super friendly and genuinely helpful. We've been coming here for years, the vibe is fun, cheerful and always leave us with smiles and satisfaction. There are 2 separate buildings on the property, Taco Nazo Express is for online and take-out orders. However, dining-in at the main restaurant is quite an experience. There's a parking attendant to help direct traffic and keep the safety of the vehicles. You'll be greeted by staff as you line up to see if you need help placing an order. I have my usual 2 fish and 2 shrimp tacos. You can taste the freshness of the ingredients. There are constantly 3-4 staff bussing the tables & cleaning the floor, regularly checking if you need anything, just to notch service all around.

Pretty impressed with the layout of this Taco Nazo. Had a sit down and take out only shops with plenty of parking. Parking attendant as well. It’s card only at the take out side, so heads up. Food order came out quickly for take out and packed really well. Food was delicious, but thought the ceviche was a bit pricy for what you get. Maybe it seems like more on a tostada, but in the to go container seemed like a small portion for the price. The shrimp taco and tacos dorados were pretty good as well. Will have to try the online order next time.

This is my favorite and the BEST Mexican lunch spot in Downey. I love the tostaditos!! The al pastor is well seasoned and tender. The tostados are good enough to stand alone. Free refills on the aquas! Come on now! But they are known for the fish tacos and I'm not a big fan of fish tacos, but I'd order their's. Beer battered crispy fish! Another could stand alone treat. And the customer service is the BEST in California! I could say more but I think you get that I love this place. More than highly recommend, this is a MUST GO! Thank me later!

Visited for the first time and they have some delicious options to pick from. The most amazing part is, they give free tacos on your first visit (Fish tacos). David was amazing, the employees here help you with the menu and greets you well too. Very lively vibe, id definitely visit again.

*****Free Taco on your first visit********* ****or a coupon for your next visit ***** Not sure how long offer last!! I never seen anything like this!! This place was a MAD house. My Mom told us about her favorite place and it did no disappoint. The fish tacos 🌮 are good, shrimp cocktail okay, beverage selection okay, potato and ricatta cheese tocos are really good, prices okay, the best salsa is in a bottle on the table (disappointed). Parking was crazy line out the door and the have a separate building to order to go and online.

I’ve only been to their takeout/Express service and omg! The staff is friendly and efficient, the dining area is spotless and spacious. I brought my sister and she loved the taco dorados and fish tacos plus the chiles toreados… I loved my fish taco, also. Had to take the other two home but they were so good!!!

Taco Nazo is delicious and this restaurant deserves all of the praise it gets. We were visiting from Colorado and a California friend of ours me tioned Taco Nazo as a must try. We stopped in during their opening time so we didn't deal with any wait which was nice! We ordered the three fish tacos that came with rice, beans, and chips. I will say that I am not a fish taco conesuier so take this as you will, but these were the best fish tacos and tacos in general that I have ever had. The fish taco and the sauce on it was extremely flavorful and delicious! Pair that with the rice and beans and your taste buds are in heaven! The taco was delicious but even eating the rice alone was incredible. I've been to many Mexican restaurants and this is probably the best rice I've had from any of those restaurants. The chips were also incredible! You may be reading this and thinking I'm overselling it, but personally I do think this place is a gem and the thousands of reviews back that up also. I would highly recommend trying it out!

My coworker had been here and I’ve loved their fish tacos from another chain. This was a huge surprise when I stepped inside. I had no idea how huge it was inside, the food was incredible. I had their three taco combo, carne asada, fish and shrimp tacos with a shrimp ceviche large. The tacos were all delicious in its own style. The ceviche was flavorful and just right. I’d definitely come back here again to try their other menu items. Parking can be very tricky during peak times, walk or uber if that’s an option. I came on a Sunday at around noon and it was super busy with a very bright vibe. Solid atmosphere overall with excellent customer service too.
