Lalo's Fast Food

"Lalo’s Fast Food, a Mexican restaurant on Ventura Avenue, is a place I stop by for lunch every once in a while, and I stopped in again today. The whole experience was good, as usual. It’s hard to miss Lalo’s Fast Food driving down the Avenue—they’ve got a bright, colorful sign that stands out right away. Once you’re there, the setup is simple and straighforward. You order up front at the window, which is fast and easy. I usually sit outside on the patio or take my food to go, but they also have a small interior section if you want to sit inside. I went with my usual: the chicken taco salad. It’s one of those items I keep coming back for. Good portion, fresh, and just really satisfying every time. Overall, this is one of those dependable Avenue spots. Good food, quick service, and a place that’s easy to swing by whenever you’re in the area."

"One of my favorite places to eat chicken tacos. I think I ate them every day for a week straight after discovering this spot. They definitely do not skimp out on the meat. In this economy what more can a man ask for."

"Great place for take away. Love that it has options for Mexican and American. Both equally as good in taste."

"My boyfriend and I stopped here on our way back from Central California. We saw it had great reviews and noticed they have two locations, but this one was more convenient for us and had the best ratings. Definitely recommend stopping by if you’re hungry and in the area! We shared the chili cheese fries, which were a pleasant twist on the classic, loaded with beans and carne—check out the photos for a look! We also ordered a bacon cheeseburger (without tomatoes) and the papa taquitos with all the toppings. Everything was genuinely delicious, and we had no complaints about our meal. It was the perfect spot for a tasty, affordable lunch. The place was clean, bustling with people, and the outdoor seating made for a lovely day. Good food, great value, and no complaints from us!"

"They really have awesome burritos here. They are huge and very satisfying. I saw octopus tostada and had to order. It didn't really taste bad but I wouldn't order it again. Maybe it's just a mental hurdle for me"

"I arrived at this restaurant and thought they didn't have a hamburger, but the very kind young woman who served me explained the process very well. I liked it so much that I decided to leave a very professional review. By the way, she's a blonde, but very kind Mexican woman."

"Surprisingly good quality food for such a place. Just off a busy road, a few tables, a counter and fast service. On the menu mostly mexican sea-food. My choice was a hot dish with shrimps and two tostadas: with octopus and shrimps (served cold). Onion rings to make sure I do not leave hungry. As always, I ended up ordering too much. But I have not regretted any of the meals. All fresh, tasty, and... nicely served on paper plates! After all, it is a fast food shack."

"Overall really good food. Chili colorado and chile Verde were really tasty and tender. The tortillas were dry and hard though. The chile relleno was really huge and alright, but not traditional. Chile was hard and wrapped in an omelet instead of an egg batter. Good flavor, but not what we expected. Beans tasted a little old and needed more lard. Portions are big. Nice patio area for our doggies. Reasonably priced."
