Ate here two days in a row during jury duty at the Inglewood courthouse. The fish and shrimp tacos are delicious, and the torta ahogada is spicy and filling. Chill atmosphere, friendly and quick service. Definitely recommended!

Great food and excellent value. This is a hole in the wall and a wonderful find. The staff is super friendly, kind, and helpful. Great tacos, burritos, and the refried beans are better than most places. They also have really fresh juices and aqua frescas.

Love their food tortas , tacos de barbacoa are a must! Their Bionicos, I would avoid, they can do better.Fruit was not the best and the cream didn’t had taste. I will still give it a 5 stars because everything else is delicious.

A gem in the rough, with a small luncheonette ambiance, the family run kitchen is stellar. The staff makes everyone feel welcomed & the prices are considerate to its customer base. I'd venture to say the best Barbacoa flavor in LA.

The food quality is really good and the price is reasonable. They are famous for their torta ahogada, but their burritos are better imo. The rams fan burrito had caramelized onions and the tortilla was toasted and perfectly wrapped. The kitchen was bustling and people...Read More

Definitely one of the better places in LA to get tortas ahogadas. Nothing compares to the ones in Guadalajara but Tortuga Bay definitely hits the spot. Their tacos are also pretty good. And their carne en su jugo is decent too.
