My favorite taco stand in my neighborhood tbh! Best torta maybe because there's no beans, but overall great flavor. I love going sundays because of their tacos de vapor (only cabeza) so delicious.

DISCLAIMER: I am reviewing the service not the food.
First red flag was when I was in line ordering, a guy is about to pick up thefood they ordered and made a face and said, " I ordered five tacos not four tacos." Then the lady putting in the order said ok its going to be a dollar twenty-five because I did not charge you. Guy looked pissed and said "you know what I will take it how is". Second red flag is the people who ordered in front of us also got the order messed up, I saw that when they picked up the order they made a complaint and the person making the tacos came up to talk to him. When I put in my order, it was also incorrect. I had ordered 8 tacos in total and two burritos. Each taco cost 1.25 and a burrito cost six dollars, the total was 16 dollars. My girlfriend made a comment telling me that she messed up the order because she is not paying attention and listening. I did the math and she was right, she only charged me for 8 tacos and one burrito, I told her hey I had ordered two burritos not one then she gave me attitude as if it was my fault. She charged me the burrito and I went on my way home.
P.s. was not informed burrito comes with Chile. The only good thing about this place is that my girlfriend said she loves the fact that they give you grilled onions and they taste good. -

During what has become my standard early evening drive between Westchester and Downtown Los Angeles I came to realize that in very close proximity to one another you have Beto's Tacos and the Tacos Guadalajara stand less than a mile down the road. It was time for a head's up review.
Beto's Tacos vs. Tacos Guadalajara
Star 1: How were the service and atmosphere?
We're comparing a truck and a stand here so the settings are a tad bit different, but both were quick on their feet and friendly (and English speaking) while dishing out my tacos. Tacos Guadalajara is going to give you that more authentic taco stand experience with a metal vat of meat sitting there and tortillas being thrown on the grill, but if we're being honest with ourselves Beto's Tacos are probably a bit more sanitary in comparison.

Tacos Guadalajara: Star (1)
Star 2: How were the portions relative to the cost?
Betos' medium sized tacos came to $1.25 each for their standard meats, which was pretty valuable especially given the self-service toppings bar out front. In comparison, Tacos Guadalajara only charges $1.00, but their tacos are notably smaller also with a toppings bar. Good stuff all around.

Stars 3 and 4: How was the food?
Plain and simple, Beto's dished up what were in my mind better tacos on account of fresh and more flavorful meats and better salsas. Even though Tacos Guadalajara had better tortillas, their self service toppings bar was short on onions compared to cilantro and the tacos simply didn't exude that flavor possibly on account of how small they are. Beto's comes out on top.
Beto's Tacos: Two Stars (4)
Tacos Guadalajara: Single Star (3)
Star 5: Would you eat here every day if you could?
So there you have it, and while both spots were perfectly fine, neither in my mind competed with some of my all time favorites like Tire Shop Taqueria, Sonoratown, or El Chato Taco Truck.

The 2 Beto's trucks that flank my neighborhood are some of my favorite guilty pleasure tacos around. It makes it hard to come home without picking up a few. Especially after going to a bar lol. Super quick and easy and their salsas are on point!

Good spot for a quick meal! Carne asada tacos were flavorful and filling, standard salsas and toppings available. Cash only, though!
