Great food and excellent value. This is a hole in the wall and a wonderful find. The staff is super friendly, kind, and helpful. Great tacos, burritos, and the refried beans are better than most places. They also have really fresh juices and aqua frescas.

This place was by far one of the worst experience I’ve ever had although it was a very short experience. We asked salchipulpos when they gave us the food, it was literally only fries and some fried sausage. Nothing else on it. We asked them if they had mayonnaise or any other things that we can put on it and her simple answer was NO they were very short. Although we know they had mayonnaise or cream because they were preparing other foods with that. They seemed like they hated their job very serious and it was just a very unpleasant experience:

This was my first time visiting the city and we stopped here for lunch, I liked the name so i decided to check it out. The food was beyond what I was expecting, the service can be a little more hospitable and the atmosphere was much to be desired but over all I did enjoy my meal as did my father. If I happen to be in the area in the future, I will eat here again and I recommend this restaurant as well. Thank you

Love their food tortas , tacos de barbacoa are a must! Their Bionicos, I would avoid, they can do better.Fruit was not the best and the cream didn’t had taste. I will still give it a 5 stars because everything else is delicious.

Ate here two days in a row during jury duty at the Inglewood courthouse. The fish and shrimp tacos are delicious, and the torta ahogada is spicy and filling. Chill atmosphere, friendly and quick service. Definitely recommended!

Fast food at good price and delicious atmosphere is good I have never sat down to eat at that place but I would say it’s ok if you are hungry and looking for a nice meal . I did order a torta but it was not on a real torta bread more like a regular bread vs a real bolillo bread so ask before !.

Good food and the service was fast and staff were nice to me and friendly. I ordered a small portion of fish ceviche 🐠 that was fresh tasty alongside a beef tostada 🌮 that had fresh veggies and soft meat. The green salsa was ok, i wish it tasted more green but was till fine.

Tortuga bay was fantastic. Nice staff, fast and delicious food and affordable! You can eat either inside or outside. I ate outside vut inside is welcoming as well. Ordered the sincronizada and a Barbacoa taco. The taco was juicy and fantastic. I had never heard of a sincronizada before. I thought I would be having something similar to a pupusa because the menu states the flour tortilla is stuffed.... it was basically a quesidilla. Very interesting item. Practically a sandwich but with a delicious tortilla instead of bread. Ham, mayo, mustard, lettuce and jalapeños. It was good. I will definately come back here and try some of their other items that also look bomb. The homemade hot sauce is spicy and so good, so make sure you add it to everything you get ! ¡Viva la Tortuga Bay!
