At Lax Tacos, the street taco is where everything starts. Two warm corn tortillas, stacked together for strength, loaded with your choice of meat, then finished with fresh-chopped cilantro, white onion, and our house salsas. This is the taco as it was meant to be — no fancy additions, no shortcuts. Just the quality of the meat and the freshness of the toppings doing all the work. We’ve been making them this way since 1986, and we see no reason to change.
Classic Lax Tacos street taco. Two corn tortillas, any meat, cilantro, onion & salsa. The best $1.50 you’ll spend in Inglewood.
Adobada-marinated pork, slow-cooked on the trompo. Sweet, spiced, smoky — with pineapple undertones. An Inglewood fan favorite.

Lightly battered and fried fish fillet with fresh cabbage slaw, crema and pico de gallo. Light, fresh and satisfying.

The Lax Tacos burrito is not a small thing. A large, grilled flour tortilla wraps around a generous portion of your chosen meat, whole beans, cilantro, fresh onions, and our house salsa. It’s the kind of burrito that becomes a meal — and a memory. Our California Burrito has its own legendary following, built around the genius addition of crispy french fries inside the wrap. Once you try it, you’ll understand why people drive across LA for it.

Birria at Lax Tacos starts with beef marinated overnight in a blend of dried chiles — guajillo, ancho, chile de árbol — along with garlic, cumin, cloves and black pepper. It slow-cooks for hours until the meat falls apart. The rendered fat rises to the top of the consomé broth, and it’s that fat-laced broth that each tortilla gets dipped into before hitting the hot comal. The result is a crispy, golden, deeply flavored taco that you dip back into the consomé before every bite. Available every day — not just weekends.

Beyond the tacos and burritos, Lax Tacos has built a cult following around its specialty items. The Asada Fries are what many customers drive across town for — crispy french fries buried under slow-grilled carne asada, melted cheese, beans, sour cream and guacamole. It’s a dish that has no business being as good as it is, and yet here we are, still serving them the same way we always have.

Sopes and huaraches are two of the most traditional Mexican masa dishes — and both are on the Lax Tacos menu.
