Tacos La Villa - La Verne, California

Since it was a new place that had just opened up nearby, my partner and I were excited to try it especially with the good reviews that the place had. However, the food didn’t just fall short of expectations instead it was subpar and not the first choice I would have gone to. I got 3 birria tacos and my partner got a shrimp burrito. The burrito was very poorly distributed in contents, and the first 4 bites was nothing but lettuce. Once he got down to the actual burrito everything was overly salted and flavors, if there were even any present, seemed completely overpowered by the salt. The birria tacos were also heavily lacking. The portion of meat was minimal inside of the taco, along with no toppings to be found. The meat was soft, but it oddly didn’t have much flavor besides the salt. The consome tasted nothing like what it should and the main flavor profile once again was just salt. This quality issue wasn’t a problem of them being busy either since there was only one other party apart from the two of us.

The server was friendly and helpful though and would often check in to see if we needed anything. The business was clean but sort of empty/low effort.

I have been here a couple of times now. Came for taco Tuesday (chicken and chorizo) as well as a torta on a Monday. Meats were very tender, moist which is important. The bread on the torta was soft and mixed well with the flavors of the meat, green salsa was a great addition. Kiosk made it simple to order, staff are amicable and readily available to assist. Since they recently opened up, additions are being made frequently and happy to see adjustments based on consumer needs. Clean establishment and very upbeat, modern. Free public parking on the street and lots nearby make this place very accessible.

Wow finally a good taco spot in la Verne. I went on grand opening day and I was instantly greeted by Luz. The menu looked delicious. I ordered the carne asada torta and my daughter ordered the flamin quesadilla. The portions were big for the price. It was so good we will definitely be coming back for more.

I think there are some growing pains here - but the food is great and the service is on par with what we like when we go out. There have been a couple visits where food does take extra time, but has been super tasty. TACO TUESDAYS ARE GREAT! I do hope they make it, we sure like them.

Everything was AMAZING! This food created one happy fiance! Get the chicken burrito with the green salsa (and extra of it). My fiance hates chicken but when she tasted my chicken burrito, we had to switch food because she didn't like hers as much as she likes mine.

Would go back again. The only downside is the prices but everybody is pricey. On the other hand, Thankful to support a local business.

I went there today because it was open on Christmas and I’m so thankful for finding it. The owner was so kind, and the food was authentic and delicious! I will definitely go back. Good prices, nice selection and a great location. Try their queso tacos. Yum!

Came in on the first Taco Tuesday. Place was packed. Although there were a few hiccups with wait times, it was worth the wait. Tacos were delicious. Things were a bit hectic behind the counter, but the owner came out and apologized to our friends that were with us about their wait. Understandable since they just opened 4 days ago that there will be some growing pains. She said she wasn't expecting that large of a turnout. Good problem to have. We'll definitely be back.
