If you like feasting from a flimsy paper plate of tacos in the streets of Los Angeles, chances are you’ve had Angel’s Tijuana Tacos at least once.
Masterminded by Angel, a 31-year-old, born-and-raised in Glassell Park with roots from Guerrero, this eponymous taqueria is arguably the street-level king of L.A.’s taco life, with a whopping 16 stands slanging guacamole-slicked al pastor, fresh off the spit on handmade corn tortillas, on a nightly basis.
Whether you’re in the Inland Empire visiting your primo, hungry after a Dodger’s game, hanging out in Long Beach on a day trip, or starving and craving a taco in the San Fernando Valley, an Angel’s taco stand is likely less than 15 minutes away from you.
