Tacos El Culichi: Reviews & Ratings
Service was great! Tacos were delicious and def Sinaloa style!! you eat there or take home!
Tacos are delicious! Love how the meats are cut I small sizes. Service is usually pretty quick and you grab your salsa on your own ! It's a small truck , simple , but worth it !
Little gem on the strip! I love the asada from here, they chop it up really fine and it tastes bomb, especially on the tacos culichi style. They have some really good green salsa and others like red and avocado sauce. They also add some grilled onions with grilled jalapeño on the side, if you ask for it. They take zelle and cash only, but this spot is my go to spot in Compton, 10/10 everytime. Puro Sinaloa!
Always a good spot dunno why it's not rated higher. Everything is always fresh and good as F. Even the people that work there are coo
Super bomb!!!!!! I always get the carne asada mulitas and they are amazing!! And the guacamole omggggg! also very friendly and helpful staff! Definitely my new taco spot!
Stopped by Tacos El Culichi's truck to try their vampiro tacos after a friend swore they were the best. After trying them, I can't say they're the best vampiro tacos I've tasted but can say they come close. The tacos are hard shelled open faced with melted cheese then topped with your choice of meat, onions and cilantro. Very similar to mini tostadas. Each meat chosen (asada, al pastor and chorizo) was flavorful with the al pastor being the best. The al pastor was both crispy and juicy. Like all other vampiro tacos out there, there's lots of cheese so cheese fans rejoice. Unless someone has tipped you prior on which truck to grab tacos from on Atlantic blvd between Alondra and Compton blvd, It'll be pretty hard making a decision on which to grab tacos from since there's taco trucks lined up one after the other parked side by side. Talk about keeping your competition close! Can't speak for the others (not yet at least) but if you're looking for good vampiro tacos then make Tacos El Culichi your pick. Flavorful, reasonable and quick in preparation. Dinner 2/16/2018
Ok well I ordered: 2 vampiros and 1 taco de tripa. Overall if you are in a rush or want your food fast because you are starving and are about to pass out then this won't be the place to get your god very quickly. I waited approximately 30 min maybe longer for my food. They didn't have asada so had to settle for the other meats. The guacamole salsa was good the green salsa was gold and the habanero salsa was good also. Al pastor meat had a good taste just looked and somewhat tasted like if it was the remains from the bottom of the pan kinda oily. Tripa was ok not blown away by it but definitely want to come back to try other stuff.
Came here with friends and family. I had the "Vampiros" tacos which is basically a hard shell tortilla with your choice of meat, mixed in with cheese, cilantro, and onion. Also had the "cabeza" (head) tacos and "al pastor" tacos. Over all the taste was delicious. Salsa choices are , red, green, and other combinations. Not a super great location if you want comfort , as it's a taco truck with a few tables in the street. How ever, if you are in the mood for some great tasting tacos and don't mind a little wind in you face, come here.
