La Tehuana

I absolutely adored this place. Please note past tense.
But tonight she tried to charge me $ 7 for a lengua burrito.
Never have I ever been charged this much before in the last 3 years of coming here.
Didn’t even have my favorite trompa tonight.
Left thinking WTF. Anyone who knows a trompa truck lemme know.

One of the few mexican places where they carry grilled chicken!!! I love this place. Too bad it’s only on the weekends for most part. They got guacamole sauce for free and all the condiments are self served

Anyone know where the OG truck has disappeared to?
I can’t seem to find them any longer. :(

Hand made tortillas, that’s all I really need to say. Just as good as the taco stands in Mexico. A little confusing lately because I’m not sure what happened to their truck but they’ve been working out of a Korean BBQ truck which is misleading and I’ve seen a few upset customers LOL! but I still love it.

handmade tortillas with crispy carnitas… my fav truck in LA!

Frankly the corner is a little sketchy, but it’s one of the best food truck burrito and tacos that I’ve had!
Carnitas is excellent.

Taco truck in Koreatown, right on 3^rd street. They make corn tortillas from scratch in front of your EYES. The only downfall is that no one speaks english… It’s only an issue because I don’t know a word of spanish. They have things written in spanish so my boyfriend and I just ordered 4 tacos using horrible pronunciation and google translator… First world problems for sure. The tacos were two chicken, pork, and beef and it costs about $ 6 or $ 7. I really had my heart set on lengua (tongue apparently) but they were out. At least I understood her saying «no, no, no»!
You can add your own toppings there and aside from tacos they have quesadillas, burritos, and tortas. I’ll definitely be adding this place to the dinner rotation since it’s two blocks from my house!

Delicious tacos! They make their tortillas on the truck and they’re amazing. Try the carnitas or the pastor! So good! They are always on 3^rd and Normandie on the side of the Video Hut/Lucy’s Laundrymart.

Parked outside a laundromat on 3^rd + Normandie.
I’ve been known to drive pretty far for Street tacos (Mariscos Jalisco, El Korita, TacoZone, Tacos Los Guichos, Rambos, Leo’s, Tacos Jeesys, Tacos El Pelon… etc, etc. and those are just the trucks!) but LA TEHUANA is my «local.»
Not everything is great. SOmetimes the Tortas are just «okay» and the Alhambres are aren’t my bag. BUT. Hooooooooo, the carnitas are ON IT man. Whether its Burrito or Tacos, I will SLURP THAT DOWN.
SO GOOD.
Agh. Just eat it. EATTTTTTT IT.

This place is so good that I wrote a whole blog post about it, which inspired me to write about a few other great LA taco joints just so it wasn’t a monumental Tehuana-​fest. Love this place!

Just fell in love again. The carnitas are the best in the world. The fresh made tortillas are absolutely amazing. Get it when you can.

These tacos are so freaking good and I have been to a lot of taco places even the taco truck across the street from this one. I order 8 tacos because I thought they were going to be small like in other places, where you can finish the taco in 2 bites and they are like 1.35. These tacos are 1.25 and they are big compare to the usual ones. Another thing I liked was that they make their own tortillas you can see them being made. I was one able to finish 5 and u gave the rest to by parents and they loved them usually they are picky about their tacos lol and we are salvadorans lol. But I will be coming back here I also like is that you can put as much onion, radish, etc you want.

Great pastor. Fresh hand made tortillas. Carne asada was ok.

Tasty would like guac on salsa bar thou

Came here completely randomly, while my brother, boyfriend, and I were on the search for a late-​night taco binge. Saw this random taco truck with a crowded line and I immediately made an illegal U-​turn and almost ran through a red light.
The danger I encounter for food.
After my brother yelled at me until we parked, we lined up to order Tacos de: buche, asada, al pastor, carnitas, and lengua.
They hand press the corn tortillas, making them piping hot and fresh to order:
Hmmm, I want a tortilla press!
I recommend the tacos than burritos. I noticed that the burrito is mostly packed with black beans, while there was tasty and soft meat, just not enough.
Get the tacos ($ 1.25)!! My brother said it was one of the best lengua and al pastor tacos he’s had in a while. I think they also specialize in quesadillas.
La Tehuana is usually located next to a parking lot of a Lucy’s Laundromat and a movie rental store, but they aren’t stingy about parking and/​or loitering there.
That parking lot was our dining room and my car hood was my dining table:
Oh. and the red sauce is spicy but kinda weak. The green sauce is DELICIOUS, and still spicy ;)
A solid choice for a late night snack!

I always come here when arriving from SD. Open late at night. I just park at the laundromat @ 3^rd & Normandie. It hits the spot

Sorry to burst the 5-​star streak but I can only give you T-​R-​E-​S!
Taco truck is parked on 3^rd and Normandie on the (north west corner next to Lucys Laundry)

I believe their hours are 7pm to ?
Another Unilocaler said he went here twice and both times were magical… hmmm…perhaps I got shafted… well I’ll come back again and see if its magically delicious!

I once heard you can judge a taco truck by their Pastor tacos and let me tell you, this trucks pastor is 5 stars.
Its not dry at all. They use a corn tortilla that is made from scratch.
I have been here twice and each time was magical!
My wife did like the carne asada tacos better but I am still undecided.
try it for yourself, you will not be disappointed. tacos are $ 1.25 but you get a guac type salsa at no extra charge.
they are on the corner of 3^rd and normandie, next to lucy’s.
Tip– Salsas are very spicy– so watch out

I’m not going to make this review fancy; I think if you give this taco truck a shot, the food will speak for itself.
$ 1.25 for a taco? Great price to pay to get through the gates to taco heaven.
Corn tortillas from scratch (you can see the woman making it from the window), awesome salsa bar so you can take as much as you want, and great flavors from the meat to the spices!
I’ve tried their carne asada, carnitas, and tacos al pastor (shepherd-​style tacos). Incase you’re unfamiliar with this type of taco, it’s made with thin pork steaks seasoned with adobada seasonings, skewered, and overlapped on one another, rotisserie cooked, and flame broiled. Delicious, I say!
I generally pass by the La Tehuana truck at night while they’re parked on 3^rd and Normandie. Please go try their tacos for yourself and taste for yourself what a GREAT taco is supposed to taste like! ;)
GOOD EATIN’!

It’s just a taco truck, but they make corn tortillas from scratch. Yes, from scratch.
The salsa bar has guacamole, and red salsa that’s SPICY. It has actual flavor. It doesn’t just incinerate your palate, although it does have a bite. There’s the other standard fare, such as radishes, onions, cilantro, green salsa, and etc.
It’s usually parked on the northwest corner, of 6^th and Normandie. Usually parked in front of Lucky’s Laundry. You can park in the lot, if you can’t find street parking. Everyone else seems to.
The asada is delicious, and the tortillas are GREAT!
