Tacos La Guera - Highland Park

Outside a strip mall containing an AutoZone, Waba Grill and a Big 5 Sporting Goods sits Tacos La Guera, a cash-only sidewalk operation that serves some of the best tacos in the city, including their delicious al pastor, freshly carved off a glistening trompo, plus a selection of aguas frescas and horchata. Open nightly from 4:30pm to midnight, Tacos La Guera also operates in South Gate, Huntington Park, Boyle Heights and Venice. Though your eyes may be drawn, as ever, to the rotating spit, we’re also partial to their other tacos, including lengua (beef tongue), buche (beef cheek) and ultra-tender suadero (navel beef plate).
