Wow, this small hole in the wall is authentic and amazing!!!
As soon as you walk in and go up the stairs, it feels like you’re in a Mexican restaurant!!!
It is an open-air restaurant so when it’s summertime expect it to be hot!
The customer service was top-notch!
The atmosphere is authentic, especially on the weekends when they have Mariachi.
I tried their Michelin awarded
Carne En Su Jugo
It was so delicious!!
The dish is not too spicy, and they give you hand-made tortillas.
The salsas they have are delicious!
I also tried their Taco Dorado de papa, and it was perfect

I stopped by this place late for lunch on a Friday. It must be said that there was no line and I walked right in and enjoyed this amazing carne en su jugo. Even as it was 70 degrees outside this hot stew of meat, onions, and cilantro hit the spot. The handmade tortillas on the side do all the more to make this such a well put together meal. If I lived in LA I don’t see why I wouldn’t be coming back everyday!

One bite of the Carne en su Sugo and you’ll know why this place scored two Michelin Bib Gourmand awards in the last 3 years. Next level Guadalajara-style Mexican. Wonderful staff and great atmosphere too. Also try the torta ahogada and the beef barbacoa.

Best Mexican food I’ve ever tasted in the Los Angeles area. The Chilaquiles were my favorite, tender meat and amazing chilaquiles. I recommend coming. Amazing staff and atmosphere.

Loved this place! The food is amazing. As one reviewer put it, it’s a little piece of Guadalajara. The carnes en su jugo were absolutely delicious. Everyone’s order looked good and everyone in my party loved what they ordered. We also ordered pastries and cafe de olla… also very good.
The place is pretty and airy as it has an open air concept. There is no designated parking, only street parking, so keep that in mind.
Highly recommend this place. I will definitely again.

Delicious carne en su jugo, don’t forget the cafe de olla. Handmade corn tortillas and they welcome you with chips and the Goldielocks salsa trio, green is savory and two reds from moderate to high heat. All three, savory!!! Chicken a la plancha was filling as well. We had the green chilaquiles with eggs and bistec, loved all of it.
Pet friendly, the restaurant is a covered outdoor patio, very colorful and cozy. All the staff is hospitable, welcoming and super accommodating.

What a gem!
Atmosphere feels like Mexico. Server despite being alone was attentive, friendly, welcoming …and she didn’t neglect a single table ( yes I am observant). This is not a margarita and nachos place. This place is the real deal!
Food is truly authentic. I’m from the Nor Cal Bay Area and this blows away any place I’ve gone back home.
Try the Carne en su Juego or the Barbacoa Tacos or Pancho Lopez plate. Can’t go wrong.

Hidden gem in Lincoln Heights that serves delicious authentic Mexican food. The service is quick and the waiters are friendly. If it weren’t a bit hidden, the line would be out of the door every day. There is plenty of street parking.

Great experience, a piece of Guadalajara at Pasadena. La Carne en su Jugo is the best and very flavorful. Chips are made at perfection, crunchy and golden. Most importantly, the service is awesome. Alberto and the crew were so nice. They also take care very well of the presentation of the food, every plate was served perfectly.

Honestly Mexican food is one of my favorites if you watched my reviews im always looking for the best. Pancho Lopez has been on my wife’s radar so of course why not right….
Lets start with the wait 30 minutes or so kinda of lost track as people were leaving and everyone one outside was waiting to get in…
We made it in and were seated the place was packed with people I think with only one waitress taking your orders it probably wasnt most ideal. Looks like a family establishment mom 2 sisters and the dad at the register.
The table had a bowl of chips and after a few minutes the girl made it to our table to get our drinks Cafe de Ola is a true test of a Mexican restaurant especially if its on the menu… The girl wasnt sure if they had any and then came back with the small cups saying this was the last they had… We did ask for some salsa for the chips because who eats chips with out it, and we were brought 3 bottles of salsa you squirt on the chips (different for sure).
We were hungry and I was foing ro order the tacos Dorado but my wife saw the Mocajete and said lets get this we can share it says its for 3 people…
My wife asked the waitress if this was really for 3 people and she said yes I haven’t seen anyone finish it… There lies th dilemma could all the 4 & 5 star reviews be because no one tried the Mocajete???
After an additional 20 minutes wait once we ordered out came the Mocajete sizzling and full of steam…. 10 minutes late we were done not because we ravaged the food but because we must have ordred the Vegan Mocajete, the reason nobody finished it is because there is more onions and cactus then there was meat and cheese….
The Chorizo non existent if it was there it melted in the juices Lol, the chicken and Asada enough for 4 street tacos. Don’t get me wrong the juice was very flavorful but to say no one very finishes it seemed very strange, my wife still hungry ordred a side of beans that was literally a side of beans food flavor but could have spared a bit more especially since the Mocajete was lacking.
I think overall I would steer away the Mocajete unless your on a diet.
Sadly we left hungry and ended up having to stop somewhere else to eat.
Atmosphere seems quaint, they were very packed and under staffed the cook probably had a hard time keeping up this would explain why the Mocajete was full of more vegetables then meat. 🙁
The staff nice but also overwhelmed but this must be the norm for them since its family owned and operated…
