Our Story
Originally a taco truck in 1978, the La Puente location is now a cultural landmark in Los Angeles. When Gilberto and Maria Romero brought their Fish Taco recipe across the border, they not only Pioneered the Ensenada-Style Fish Taco but also permanently infused their Baja culture into Los Angeles.

We were driving through to Whittier and needed to grab a quick bite. Taco Nazo was a pleasant find. Very close to freeway, we ordered and the food was served quickly and the server, Christian, was very helpful. We tried a variety of tacos. Al Pastor and chicken were my favorites. Since it’s outdoor seating and right ... next to the road, it can get a bit noisy. The food is very authentic and even say a free range chicken roaming around. Two thumbs up. Read More

I’ve been coming to Taconazo for over 20 years, and it has never disappointed. The consistency, the flavor, and the quality are unmatched. Hands down, they have the best fish tacos in Southern California — crispy, fresh, and full of flavor every single time. It’s rare to find a spot that stays this good for this ... long. Taconazo is a true gem, and I’ll keep coming back for the next 20 years and beyond! 🌮💯 Read More

This is the La Puente branch of Taco Nazo. It’s just off 605 highway and very convenient since it is counter service only. No fuss, you order and take a seat; they bring your plate to your table. Fish taco and Al pastor taco were extremely good. Fish was still warm and goes well either way the slivers of cold cabbage. ... Al pastor had the taste of chili oil cooked over the heat. This location is a bit small but service was quick so probably not too much wait except during peak times. Read More

I went in and didn't see what I needed for my dietary needs. I asked for exactly what I wanted and got exactly what I asked for. It might have been a dollar and change more, but worth it. A great dining experience for me. I was so happy, I took a picture of my meal. Since I'm not a culinary photographer I'm not going ... to post it. But I enjoyed it enough to want a photograph.

Best fish tacos in Los Angeles. They are beyond delicious and the portions are generous. Fresh chili sauce to top tacos is so dang good. We come here frequently.

Fast and bomb. The people have a good attitude and the shrimp tacos are fired

Heard good things about this place from friends at work. Decided to make the 45 minute drive to see for myself. Happy I did. The fish tacos were excellent and so we're the shrimp. I prefer the fish over the shrimp though. Got a large mixed ceviché and man it was packed. Delicious as well. Definitely worth a try!

All I gotta say is that roasted pepper was like it was grown and cooked by angels in heaven. The entire meal was next level, but Ive never had a pepper like that in my life! Don't miss this place!
Coming Soon To Santa Ana!
