Taco Nazo

The food is great and the ingredients are fresh. There is indoor seating but the space is very limited and busy. To try and seat a large party will be challenging. I went during peak hour and placed my order ahead of time for pickup, but I still needed to wait 10 minutes after the pickup time to get my order. Although I had to wait I'm still glad to do so because these are some of the best Fish and Shrimp tacos. The fish and shrimp battered was crunchy and airy. The shrimp had the right snappy, firm, but tender texture. The vegetables were fresh. The sauces were nicely packaged and packaged to the side. The Nachos with Al Pastor were excellent! Chips were crunchy and loaded with beans, guacamole, cheese, onions, cilantro, and tomatoes. The nacho order is a good size and can be shared. Overall it was. It was a very good experience and the staff were so nice.

I am in Cali visiting for work and was told by multiple coworkers to try out Taco Nazo. They met the high expectations and more. My 2 friends and I are pretty "efficient" eaters and ordered 14 tacos and a ceviche. The manager asked if we were from out of town and was interested in how we found out about their restaurant. She was very friendly and brought us some of their amazing fish tacos for being first time customers. The service was awesome, the food was awesome, and even the other patrons were friendly and wanted to talk about how good the food was. I am usually a chicken, beef, al pastore lover at a taco joint. The fish was definitely a hit though. The rest were super good, but something about the fish taco put it above. I love this place. Can we get one in Anchorage, Alaska?

Our visit to Taconazo was super great. The food was excellent and the service was fast and efficient. I highly recommend you try their fish tacos. They are so delicious.

Arrived at the drive thru line at 6:55pm Got our food at 7:08pm Not bad for the afternoon rush Ordered the combo #1 and #2. I got two shrimp and one fish My gf ordered one potato and one fish taco. For drinks we got agua Frescas; the Jamaica and Piña. Both drinks tastes fresh and really delicious. Everything was really delicious!!

I really loved the food. It was my first time eating there and you get a free taco if it's your first time there. The employees are super nice and the place is clean. The only thing that kept it from getting 5 stars for me was the music was SO loud I couldn't have a decent conversation with the person I was having dinner with. It was even louder in the outside dining area. We went late and they were getting ready to close, but it still seemed inappropriately loud for a fast food place. Maybe not so bad for a nightclub, but I won't be taking anyone there I actually want to talk to 😂.

These are the best shrimp tacos! I usually go to the other location, but this one is bigger and has a drive-thru. The service has been great during all my visits, the prices are reasonable, and the place is very clean.

Always great Food & great customer service 👌 👍 Love the Fish Tacos 🌮

They might really be the world’s best fish tacos. I had the three taco combo with fish, shrimp, and potato tacos and all were great. Definitely the best fish taco I’ve had.

This place is our go to for shrimp tacos PERIOD! We've been fans since before the brand became a franchise. Always have the best quality seafood, the batter is on point and the star of the show is the crema and salsa! Always fresh, always fast service too! Now days we like their ricotta cheese and potatoe tacos!!! yum! the best! oh and their Grilled yellow peppers are AMAZING!!! Sorry cant comment on the location because I never eat in. LOL. but it looks clean and colorful! pleasant!

Want fresh and amazing fish tacos? Shrimp tacos? Burritos? Ceviche or cocktails? They got it all here! They keep the tables and chairs clean Service 5/5 today! Food was 5/5 today! Thank you! Multiple sauces to choose from They even serve beers!! Come on over n have a taco party! We sat outside and it was windy and might rain, the staff came to check on us and lowered down the blinds too! Thank you!! We came for a local community fundraiser and this business does it above and beyond. So thankful for Taco Nazo! Will keep coming back to give more business!

I tried a place called Taco Nazo in El Monte and the fish and shrimp tacos were absolutely delicious. I will one hundred percent be returning. I went in for lunch and dined in. The vibes were great, the music was on point, and everything just felt right. I really enjoyed the atmosphere, and the food and drinks did not disappoint. Everything was packed with flavor and made fresh. This spot is a gem. If you love tacos, especially fish and shrimp, do not sleep on this place.

Thankfully it didn't disappoint! Everyone raves about the fish tacos and they are legit. Great crunch and the crema is delicious. Must try!

Got to love them TACOS!!! So why don't we Taco-bout it!! The food here was great! The fish tacos and meat tacos were so fresh that I wanted MORE MORE MORE!!! I would definitely come back to eat here with my friends from church. The service was fast and efficient with the orders. The ambiance was packed of great and loving people and staffs. A great place to fill your bellies is ONLY here at TACO NAZO!!

These are the best shrimp tacos! I usually go to the other location, but this one is bigger and has a drive-thru. The service has been great during all my visits, the prices are reasonable, and the place is very clean.

This was my first time ever trying fish tacos, and I had them at this location. There's another spot in Bellflower that's larger with more seating, while this one is smaller and primarily focused on drive-thru service. You order at the register, and they bring the tacos to your table. I loved the fish tacos -- they tasted just as great as the ones at the Bellflower location. Ambiance is more a drive thru.

Delicious fish and shrimp taco! It's a little pricey, but I guess the larger portion size makes up for it. The seafood is pretty fresh and seasoned well. This place is legit for both fish and shrimp tacos!

4++ Great place to get your fried fish and shrimp tacos. This place has a few locations I think. I know they have at least two because I went to their original location a few months ago. This location felt more like your counter service fast casual spot. Keep up here for a very and service was really quick. I got a combo that included both a shrimp and a fish taco. Their Ensenada style tacos definitely set a pretty high standard in terms of the fried seafood tacos. You have around the area. I'm a fan.

Still great food, still great service, still great everything. I came back for another visit, I was missing the fish tacos. I haven't had one in quite some time, so I had a craving for one. The fish taco is so good!!! Potato tacos are delicious too. I love this place. If you haven't tried it, it is a must!

The service is great, and the the staff is friendly. The location itself is smaller than the Bellflower location is larger of course. It has small outdoor seating. The tacos hit just as good.

Been coming here as a kid, food is still amazing. Brought some friends to try it out, one of the workers found out it was their first time and brought out complimentary Tacos Gilberto for everyone to try (also as an apology for the lady from the restraunt over harassing the patrons at Taco Nazo). Will continue to come visit whenever possible, amazing people and amazing food. Hits right in the nostalgia everytime

Conveniently located between El Monte and Rosemead. The restaurant is always clean and workers are constantly moving to maintain the space. The fish tacos are what they're known for but I love the potato tacos. The beans and rice are also very tasty. I would recommend buying the family combo to get the best bang for your buck. This place has a special place in my heart!

We always seem to get lucky when visiting any of their locations, they got extremely busy after we received our food. Everyone was extra friendly and had such a great attitude. Customer service did not disappoint. We ordered a shrimp burrito, the 3 taco combo (shrimp, fish and potato) and 2 drinks which was around $50. The price seems very reasonable considering the quality of the food and the portions. One of the ladies brought the food out to our table and she was really nice. They did have music playing which added to the overall experience we had, nothing too loud which is appreciated.

+ Line moved pretty fast, but was still a 15 minute wait. Food came out fast + Fish tacos were great portions and tortillas were excellent, but overall the fish was underseasoned. A spicier aioli would have improved the dish. + Shrimp tacos were better, but the batter ratio was a bit high. + The meal overall was a bit heavy due to all the deep fried batter, I wouldn't recommend getting more than two tacos + Value was great. Huge meal (5 ala carte tacos) for less than $25

I used to go here a lot growing up and we always used to buy a lot of fish tacos from this location. It's been multiple years since I've been here so I wanted to see if they still held up to the memories I have from my youth. **Forewarning** this lot is super small so if you park here you might not get a spot or a work truck might be taking up 2 spots cuz they don't know how to park. You've been Warned! I did a mobile order of the 8 taco combo: 4 fish & 4 shrimp tacos and the food was quickly assembled and the staff was very hospitable to all guests. There is a drive-thru, indoor seating with multiple TV's and outdoor seating with a roof covering. The restaurant is clean and you can see the cooking line cranking out orders left and right. Now for the food review... I'm sad to say that this visit was a bit disappointing for the fish tacos. There wasn't much flavor and the tortillas were super dry but the salsa helped wash it down As for the shrimp tacos...those had much better flavor and they were juicy. These were worth the trip and were an improvement over the fish taco experience. Maybe I got a bad batch but it's worth another try. I would come back for another round to try some of their other menu options as I think they have potential to be good.

I loooooooove taco nazo! Their potatoes tacos are my favorite. Their salsa never misses. Been to a bunch of their locations and this one is one of the best. I like how they have indoor seating and patio. There's even a drive thru with this one. Service was the best super nice and informative. Told us this location has been here for 2 years. I like the interior has pictures of taco nazo history. They have their own parking lot with a adequate amount of spaces

Our favorite and the best fish tacos and shrimp ceviche no one compares!!! Highly recommend

REVIEW FOR TAKEOUT ONLY: Pretty decent Mexican place in El Monte. They're known for their fish tacos, which are large, crispy and juicy. I got the fish burrito and it was good! Included refried beans, salsa, rice and cabbage. Takeout is organized in cute boxes with sauces and cabbage packaged separately. Their red salsa is very good!!! Also comes with poblano peppers! Pros: -large fish tacos -burritos cut in half for you -best packaging -generous with poblano peppers for takeout -can phone order Cons: -cc only -slightly pricey

What I ordered: Family 8 Taco Pack $49 A meal for the family! It's an 8 taco tray, served with 32oz of beans, 32oz of rice, a medium bag of chips, 8oz of chip salsa, and 6 chile gueritos. (Save 13%! Excludes upgrade add-ons) These are the tacos included in my family pack: -World Famous Fish Taco Lightly battered and fried, topped with cabbage, onion, tomato, cilantro, and our signature sauce. -World Famous Shrimp Taco Lightly battered and fried, topped with cabbage, onion, tomato, cilantro, and our signature sauce. -Taco Dorado: Potato Taco dorado (crunchy taco). Mashed potatoes fried inside a tortilla. Topped with cabbage, onion, cilantro, tomato, cheese, and signature sauce. Established in 1978 in LaPuente. Taco Nazo has 5 locations in LA County. I read online that this place has great fish tacos. I've wanted to check them out for a minute now. I decided to get the family pack of 8 tacos, 32 oz of Rice, 32 oz of Refried Beans, Chips and Hot sauce for $50. I ate 3 tacos and it was filling for a big guy like me. I recommend trying one fish, one shrimp and one potato. I liked these 3 options. I hope to try other protein options, but I will definitely order those 3 again. The chips tasted fresh and homemade and taste real good with some salsa or hot sauce. I wish they had more hot sauces to try. The tacos come already dressed which is always nice and you can add hot sauce depending on your spice level. Each taco comes with a pepper and the peppers were so spicy and flavorful. I really liked them. I really enjoyed the food from Taco Nazo. I'll definitely be back.

It's been a while, but you get good service and yummy fish tacos. The inside could be cleaner, but the food is what I'm there for.

Food is never ready. I actually don't leave my house until I get the text message and I still have to wait another 10-15 when I get there

There is free customer parking outside at their private lot. Came here on a Thursday evening. Only a couple of people in line. After ordering, you'll get a number if you are dining in. With that number, an employee will bring your food over. They have indoor and outdoor seating options. The 2 taco combo comes with 2 tacos of your choice, rice, beans, salsa and a fountain drink for $13.75. A single order taco is $4.25. Each order came with a Chile guerito and their signature sauce. Fish Taco: perfectly battered and fried with a generous amount of toppings and sauce. 5/5 Shrimp Taco: Same as the fish taco in terms of batter and toppings, but this was a bit too salty in my opinion. 4/5

Love taco nazo. This is the BEST fish taco I've had. Eat it there fresh - it's tender and hot! Their rice is also great and they have good salsas. They also have a drive through! I'd say 3 tacos will leave you very full. We got the 8 pack and you're able to mix and match which types of tacos you want! Service was great - very nice!

Had a few tacos at this place, the tacos were bursting with flavor, the taco I enjoyed the most was the shrimp tacos. plus fast and friendly service experience. Definitely get a shrimp tacos or two to go!!!

My favorite fish taco bar none. Close up the race and call it a day because these come out fresh and crispy like no other!!

Fish tacos are so tasty! They were our favorite. The shrimp ones were also good and the carne asada tacos were yummy too. We got the 8 taco pack and added the shrimp ceviche too. Also very yummy! Service was thorough and quick and they packed all the fixings we needed since we got our order to go. Inside has seating like a fast food restaurant. There's also a drive thru if you're really in a hurry but plenty of parking if you wanted to dine-in. My only note is that I think the food might be better if you dined in to really appreciate the outside crunch on the fried fish but the flavors are on point! Will definitely be back often. Worth the drive just for the fish tacos.

This place has the best fish tacos! Everything comes in big portions and there was an outdoor patio to eat on and watch the sunset. We got the taco combo, fish burrito, premium ceviche mix and a michelada pacifico. The staff was so friendly and their service was amazing!!!

My go to when I'm craving fish tacos. I must admit I don't know many other options other than Baja tacos and La Bufadora in El Monte. I always opt for taco Nazo as it's quick and it has a good drive. Portions are great, I'd recommend just ordering tacos or a burrito and pass on the combo (rice and the refried beans are nothing to write home about). Ask for extra sauce if you're ordering through the drive thru.

Their fish taco is very good. Each taco is $4.49 which was a bit pricy but it's worth it. I also like their sauce. I ordered two fish tacos to go and they were packaged in a cute little box. I would definitely come back

Located by Whittier park, this spot is serving up some of the freshest seafood tacos I have ever had. Plenty of on site parking with a drive thru for those who are looking for a quick eat. We ordered the 3 taco combo and it was very filling. The fish and shrimp were juicy and crispy on the outside. The papas taco had a smooth potatoe filling and a crunchy shell. Staff were more than welcoming and super helpful when we were ordering. Great team working on site. Overall, 10/10 would recommend to anyone and one of my new favorite restaurant. Order: papas tacos, 3 taco combo (shrimp and fish) Comment: nothing I would change, this place is an absolute gem

This is literally the best fish tacos I've ever had! You can see in the picture I got the 2 fish tacos with rice and beans and chips on the side with a drink. Delicious! The fish tacos were just so fresh and crispy on the outside. I'll say to eat it there instead of taking it to go because you wouldn't want it soggy by the time you get home. There's also a drive thru and a couple seats inside and outside. The parking lot is pretty small so it might be hard to find parking because this place is usually busy whenever I go. The service is great. The employees here are nice, friendly, and hard working. They check up on you to see if everything is good. Thanks for the great service! Keep it up!

Best fish tacos I've ever had! I got the 2 fish tacos combo, which included refried beans and Mexican-style rice, big pepperoncini pepper and a lime slice. I got a non-sweetened ice tea (which I'm positive is hibiscus cause it's a little on the tart side)! The tacos had a genius chuck of fried fish, with shredded cabbage, tomato, onion, cilantro and a sort of signature tartar sauce. The lady taking our order was so sweet-top tier customer service. It is a little pricy but dang-now I wanna try their ceviche!

I love Taco Nazo!! I only get to come once a year so it always feels so special when I get to enjoy my FAVORITE fish taco!! The cream sauce that is added on top is *chef's kiss*! I tried a few bites of the shrimp burrito this time and would highly recommend. The servers are very friendly and check in to see if you everything is good. The inside has many family photos from the founders to the following generations. It is so special to see how much family is driven into the restaurant and their entire business.

The al pastor torta is great. The service e is good and fast considering how busy they are. I had the horchata and it was good also, not too sweet. Music was playing but not loud.

3 taco combo with fish, shrimp and asada) also comes with rice&beans and a drink A la carte El pastor taco Takeout. Everything was packaged nicely. Salsa stored in packets. The fish and shrimp taco stood out more than the meats. Good portion size. The tacos itself were a little bland and I felt like I had to constantly pour salsa into it for flavor. Skip the asada tacos, the meat was on the tougher side. Overall a good experience.

The food here is amazing!! I never eat those yellow chilis anywhere once I tried the ones they offer here! Game changer! I ate like 5 of them for 2 tacos

Taco Nazo is the OG spot for Ensenada style fish tacos. It's one of my must-try recommended in spots in LA. The service is great and friendly. There's drive-thru option and small parking lot. For the food: The fish taco is completely packed with beer-battered fried fish - topped with cabbage, pico de gallo, crema. It's hard to order anything other than the fish tacos, but the tacos dorados and ceviche look amazing.

Why are you so good?! I order potato tacos, plain, just fried with their Potatoes, no cheese. So delicious with the salted grilled pepper, the salsa, and the included cabbage salad. It's like buttery mashed potatoes stuffed in a corn tortilla then sealed and deep fried. So simple yet so delicious! Their service is always fast, always good, always accomodating. I love it here. If dining in, the inside of the restaurant is as expected of a fast food joint. Simple open seating arrangement, fun upbeat music loud enough to hear, but it's nice that it's also not too loud that you can still converse. Try it, you'll he pleased. Sometimes I like the fried fish tacos, most times I prefer the shrimp. Try both. Just do it!

EXCELLENT!!! 11/10 come here for fish tacos By far one of the best fish tacos I've had - it's perfectly crisped and has very tender fish meat. The proportion of sauce, toppings, and fish was perfect and the size for 1 taco was pretty decent! It was hot and fresh with a side of roasted pepper on the side. We got the 3 taco combo + extra fish tacos on the side. The taco combo comes with a beans, rice, and a drink (I recommend the horchata or agua fresca). ALL of which were delicious They do drive thru and dine in - the space is cozy and has outdoor seating, lights and a parking space. The staff were very kind and service was fast! It was the perfect meal before I leave LA. I have not tried the other seafood items but will do next time I'm back!

The best fish and shrimp tacos! I also really enjoy their chips and salsa. Everything is always consistent. I have also ordered the catering ceviche 1/2 tray, and it is definitely fresh, delicious and plentiful . The employees and customer service are excellent. This establishment is one of my top favorite Mexican food restaurants.

I've been coming here for years and this is still the best place for fish tacos. Their shrimp tacos are really good too.

If I could marry the Taco Nazo potato taco, I'd marry the Taco Nazo potato taco. Seriously, get yourself in your four wheeled sedan and try out this great chain. Main highlights are the campechana, fish taco, and ofc the potato taco. I still dream about this meal. Very was so delicious! You bet I'm coming back!

Ok, so, we have this for work lunch on occasion. Let me tell you, I have not had better tasting tacos in a long time. I've had the shrimp tacos and tacos de papa with all the trimmings like shredded cabbage and salsa on the side. $30 can feed 3 of us. We order online often and it's ready for pick up pretty fast. Def recommend!

I love this place, It's never a disappointment! I love everything here. The food and service is always super amazing, too! Pretty chill spot to hang out and enjoy yummy food!

You come here for Fish Tacos and Burritos! Excellent. Their potato tacos, Carne asada, Al Pastor are mediocre. The ceviche is pretty good but not lot of sea food, more juice!

Wow! Where have I been?! I didn't know there was a Taco Nazo location in South El Monte and I am so happy there is. I had the fish tacos and took them for to-go and they were still good. I love that this location isn't too busy (or maybe it is the time I went), but either way the food is still quality.

The tacos here are so good ! I love eating here but it's very expensive. They need to lower the prices down
