Tijuana-style tacos with fresh tortillas, diverse salsas, and horchata
"Tacos 1986, co-founded by Victor Delgado and Jorge 'Joy' Alvarez Tostado, features corn tortillas and a slow-turning vertical spit. The Beverly Boulevard location is perfect for enjoying tacos de adobada with quality salsas on a patio. Since its inception in 2018, Tacos 1986 has expanded to multiple locations, maintaining its reputation for delicious tacos." - Bill Esparza
"This Tijuana-style taqueria, which started out as a Hollywood street cart in late 2018, has since expanded with four brick-and-mortars across LA, including one just down the street from Pan Pacific on Beverly. There are several delicious tacos on the menu (the mushroom and adobada are standouts), but our favorite is the one not actually listed on the menu: “El Perrón.” This secret taco uses the same flour tortilla as the other tacos, but comes with crispy cheese griddled into the side and is filled with mesquite-smoked carne asada, beans, guacamole, cilantro, onions, and red salsa. It’s a well-balanced and ridiculously savory taco. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation

"This Tijuana-style taqueria—now mini-chain-famous after a presidential visit—still slaps: three con todo tacos on house-made char-flecked corn tortillas topped with salsa, chopped onion/cilantro, and creamy guac are a perfect package, trompo-roasted and grilled meats pack flavor, and the mushrooms soaked in chile-heavy salsa macha before cooking offer a chewy, charred, savory-salty-slightly-sweet texture that stands out." - Eater Staff
