Tacos El Gavilan is amazing. I'm from the east coast but my wife is from here and we always come to Tacos El Gavilan (just Gavilan) when we come. It's some of the best tacos for the most reasonable price (compared to NY). I wish they would open up one in NYC or Jersey City, show them how to really do tacos. The horchata is amazing as well.

I had never visited this restaurant chain previously, but some of my relatives had suggested that I visit Tacos Gavilan as they claimed it was the best Mexican restaurant chain ever. I am so glad to report that they were absolutely right!! The restaurant had plenty of parking and as soon as I walked in to the restaurant I was overwhelmed by how clean and beautiful the place was. The cashier was so kind and the prices were definitely reasonable. I recommend visiting on a Tuesday for their Taco Tuesday special, you save 1 per taco. I ordered a burrito and the price was super reasonable for the humongous burrito they gave me. When I went inside the restroom I found that they were incredibly clean. I usually do not go to the bathroom in public restrooms but the restrooms in Tacos Gavilan we’re super clean and safe. They are locked so you have to ask a worker to open it for you. The tables were really clean and there was almost nobody there. I highly recommend all their food. It is the most traditional Mexican restaurant I have ever visited. If you are in Los Angeles make sure to visit.

Fast, clean, and attentive. The champurrado is absolutely worth getting. It never feels unsafe going here. You are in and out so quickly yet the quality is always present. Highly recommend for Mexican food in the area
