- Avenue 26 Taco Stand's tacos are considered by some to be the best in Los Angeles, and possibly the entire country (Insider said so in 2017). They serve $1 tacos right off a long grill on the street, with people lining up all night for these delicious tacos. As one of the essential restaurants on the eastside of LA, Ave 26 is known for carne asada, al pastor, and suadero tacos. Insider's Joe Avella visited with L.A. Taco's Javier Cabral to learn about this street-taco institution, why they are so popular, and to try these beloved tacos.
Editor's Note: This video was shot in February of 2020.

Because vegetables are vibrant, maybe.
Remind me to stop clicking on your ridiculous nonsense.
Can yall do tacos or other foods that aren't just in LA like Texas, Florida, New York and other states
Chulada de tacos!!!.🤤👍🌮🌮🌮
People making fun of the guy for talking a lot, but he was hella informative for people who dont understand taco food culture in LA, and made us all crave the tacos there too.
I agree
Jacky thereal he always eating 1$ tacos because he spends all his money on coke
Made everyone crave an 8ball
Javier Cabral un abrazo con todo el corazon "CALIFORNIA IT NEVER STOP BEING MEXICO"
he was high af lmao
$1 tacos always are the best tacos
Fingering Things ✔️ can u finger a finger?
Wht is your username-
There’s $1 worth having diarrhea? And then spreading the diarrhea in the taco 🌮
WHY DO YOU ALWAYS COMMENT IN EVERY VIDEO I WATCH. Just answer for once to my comment

Hahaha such a funny comment!!!
There is never gonna be a taco war. Mexican style tacos are and will always be the best 🤩

@@Sword_of_Saint_14 well, we did create them.
Crazy to think that there some people really paying $20+ for like 3”FaNCy” tacos, they really have no idea that the best spots are always those late night $1-2 taco stands
yeah and none of them serve handmade tortillas so forget that
Some people like to spend money and have a sit-down experience. It's called not being poor.
Teddy Graham they aren’t poor it’s wanting to save money
Actually there is a taco stand on the valley, in van nuys (near the intersection of Van Nuys and Sherman Way)
I got the 2 tacos for $1 spot in East LA corner in Whittier
The guy in glasses is spittin straight facts. If you’re a white or black or Asian person and have no clue what to order or how / why taco ingredients are there .... listen to what that guy just said lol... he pretty much just laid out everything there is to know about a taco spot. Most wont bother to take the time and tell you. So that dude is looking out.
yeah but i dont need to know that some people eat in their cars or on the floor with juices flowing down on them
@@Jeffersonyuvens eh blame the editors/producers for leaving that bit in.
@@Jeffersonyuvens gotta be in 90 degree bro or 130 would work too i guess

@@cjyoung4080 wtf are you smoking?
I’m from Boston and when I visited LA a year ago I discovered these street taquerias. I was at a hotel downtown that had basically nothing but overpriced, mediocre food around it so I decided to try this small family owned taco food truck across the street (I think the family was from Veracruz). I ate and chatted with construction workers who ate at the truck everyday during their breaks. the food was so good and so cheap. tacos like those are just as great as the people who make them! There is something special about cultures in which food plays such a vital role in community, and Mexican culture is a prime example.
I'm born and raised in Lincoln Heights but currently living the life in Tokyo, Japan. Videos like this really bring me back to my roots. The smells of the beef, pork, limes, and other ingredients is something that will always call me back to my hometown. Standing in front of the taqueros while they crank out taco after taco is a replay I will take to my grave and tell others in Japan. I used to walk by there long ago when I was going to Nightingale MS with my friends. Never thought this unassuming, barrio taqueria would blow up. There are thousands all over LA just like this so it's interesting to me this one has made an impact to many others.
In 2023 I'll visit my mom who's still living there and I understand it has moved to Little Tokyo; which is weird lol. I hope this video never gets lost or taken down.
No one asked lil bro
5:40 joe was like “ Bruh stop we need to eat “
LOL
This talkative guy murdered Joe 😂
⚰️
hhahahahhaahhaha
@@JoeAvella ahahahhahahahahahahahah
facxxx 🤣🤣🤣🤣
He carried the episode though
I feel that by the time the video was done, Javier's tacos might have been used up by his body for his talking..😂🤣.. Loved his energy and depth on the topic. IMHO Joe never exhibited anything on similar lines. He will one-day though.
Fingers crossed.
5:49 the moment the white dude wanted Mexican dude to shut up so they can eat 😆
maaan so hilarious 😂 after that he's still talking at the back of the car
Its cuz hes probanly coked out 🤣🤣
Yea he was about done 😂😂
You have to watch it 10 seconds prior to that moment. (5:39).
Both of them are white and Latino. Notice the last name of the host. That's what they call white-hispanic. But the critics was uttering names with accent.
“Some people eat in their car seat, some people eat on the hood of their car”
some people eat the car
@@ChrisTian-sd5yq 😂😂
😂😂😂
By the time u eat the tacos with this guy talking there cold lol 😂
and U don't want to eat tacos de cabs cold.
They're*
He wouldnt let Joe talk, i love it lol
Yeah the less I talk the better.
Great video guys thanks for sharing! I first seen this awhile ago and have been wanting to check Ave 26 tacos our next time we visit LA, I couldn’t find the video for the last 6 months and seeing we will be in LA in 2 weeks for 7 days I was telling my wife “damn I can’t find the video, very bummed out” so glad I found it!! Thanks agao
I’ve been here so many times, it’s sooooo good. I didn’t even know they were known.
Insane value at 1$. I would stop and get one even if I wasn't hungry
Just one?
@@AngelicasParty dozen
Hipsters finding local taco spot, this place has been a staple way before they got here.
All the hipsters look so unemployed.
White people always act like they discovered something
That food critic dude is clearly Mexican.
And now that they've found it, they'll swarm it so no one else gets to eat there, since non-hipsters usually have something to do and can't wait for 45 minutes.
Lmao yes the spot older than my balls ⚽️⚽️
Did this dude get his PhD in Tacos?
He's the Taco Teacher
Not really because tripa and bouche tacos did not start in LA 💀 full of shit lol
@@Duckkjr buche*
Yes , (P)inche (H)uey (D)e Tacos
That dude came and started dropping knowledge left and right...
LEGEND SAYS THIS MAN STILL TALKING
Video quality outstanding. Content great as always.
omg he’s so talkative let him eat in peace
No, i loved it! I'm always hungry.
hahahahahahha

Scante out
@@JoeAvella damn its the real guy
5:41 lolll he looks so over it 😂
Lmao

It’s the cocaine talking 😂
@Rowland tacocainetive

Went there last night and I’m hungry again for this 🤤🤤🤤
As a Mexican this makes me very happy 😊
Yes the tacos are delicious because their handled with bare hands!!
he sure talks a lot for being a food critic.
4:54-5:00 uknow why lmaoo *snif*
@@VintageSeanTV was thinking the same thing
He seems well versed so I enjoyed it!
You think I did better than him?
czcams.com/video/WEREiBftkEs/video.html
I talk moderately as a food critic in LA! 😀
I eat here after roller blading in a group that tours the city and starts in Little Tokyo. I didn’t realize this place had gotten media attention, but that’s a cool part about living in LA! There’s so much interesting stuff going on. It feels like you’re in the center of the world.
imagine someone is getting the onions or salsa and just sneezes into the container. lmao
1:24 dud i feel bad for the guy selling pizza
That wasn’t a pizza stand it was esquite *Corn*
I’m so hungry 🥘😩
Lol I’m eating banana split ice cream 🍦
I'm crying in canadian
hahahahahhahahah
Me and a group of friends ate here back in july, their tacos and the green salsa are AMAZING
Bro everyone is flaming this guy for his personality but I absolutely love his personality
As an LA guy, I can tell you that Ave 26 tacos is legit. Cheap, Authentic, and tasty. You cant find better tacos in the area.
I even shot a video there last year 😀
Rockstar Eater...coming from a Chino isn’t saying much...🤣🤣🤣🤣
Urban Decay okay ignorant clown lmao
Cause only Mexicans grow up in LA 😂
Urban Decay man you’ll start punching the air when I tell you that most of the ppl that go there are Koreans or Japanese ppl,stop being ignorant man
Tire shop tacos are better imo, but these are good too.
As a native LA I can honestly tell you it's a good deal don't get me wrong but they don't taste good for some reason I always get diarrhea when I eat there very cheap tacos but not my cup of tea I know better places with same price and are way better than this overrated place
Damn dude eats dollar tacos all the time cause hes spending all his money on coke
He was crazy cokedddd
That's what I was thinking too
Andaba bien perikeado! 🤣🦜
At least coke lol
How do you know?
Ave 26 tacos are the best
Me and some friends took our friends from England to get tacos here and it was a memorable experience for them that they can’t forget and always mention
That guy is frikkin passionate about taco. HUGE respect 👍
I think that you find some of the best Mexican food in the world in Southern California.
Nope you are wrong
Because the more authentic food is across the country of Mexico
You just have to find the right places
@@endregarcia292 I guess I've never found the right places. It has always been much better for me in SoCal.
I've been to Avenue 26 too! czcams.com/video/WEREiBftkEs/video.html
Last time I went to this spot the prices raised to $1.25 but still super worth imo
Ate this recently and it was amazing! 100% recommend this place.
are they still a 1$
@@jaydaytoday3548 I think it’s $2 now
The other guy is like "omg.. can you let me eat?"
The guy rambling is high on something lol quite embarrassing they aired this.
@@myron8676 So a guy talking passionately about something must be high?
Damn they look fire! Legal bud and 1$ legit tacos y'all got it made out west! Salute
He was too excited being involved 😂😂
This is amazing, especially how it's ONE dollar for a taco. Great deal since a lot of people will buy it
This is the spot!! No questions ask!☺️😊☺️😊
These guys should bring their Taco stands to the UK we're desperate for good affordable street foods here
They'd be a tenner each if they were over here lol. But I agree mate we need taco street vendors about
Preach! It's so hard to find good and cheap Mexican food here in the UK
@@cbot375 as a uni student, I don't have the space in my kitchen or the time sadly...but that would be so nice if i could do it
such a secret spot there are hundreds off people walking around and driving by lol
Yeah but there’s millions of people in La
Imagine if you brought up tacos by accident around him and got stuck in a 50min conversation with him
I’ve gone there before and their tacos are delicious!!!
That Six Paths Sasuke hoodie is 🔥🔥🔥
$1!?
taco bout a deal!
GODDAMMIT BARB (I know it doesn't fit here but, hey, it's a pun, so it counts)
Even cheaper than taco bell
Legit. Here is another take on this taco stand: czcams.com/video/WEREiBftkEs/video.html
A dollar per taco is just too much if you've been to Mexico, because there you can get up to 5 tacos for one dollar!
Athéna Mer Fr
I have been going to those guys forever I remember the first time on Verdugo Road not too far from there tacos were 2 for a dollar before good days there but always the best tacos might have to pass by again soon
Love the talking dude's passion 10/10
for taco??? jeez...
its really great seeing turkish cuisine effect other cuisines even tho it has a ocean between them. love mexican food love from turkey😋 dürüm=burrito
The only similarity is the shape, the meat is pork vs beef for obvious reasons and the taste is nothing like kebab. Tacos are small so you can eat 10 and kebab is a sandwich so you only eat one and the vegetables are fresh
@@garedmorort I think you didn't get it sir. The way they put the meat vertically is originated in Turkey.
@@ozzyg3789 yes I got it man, did you get it?
@@ozzyg3789 yeah no shit. Mexicans have never denied it lol
There’s literally no similarities. 😂😂
Let the man eat!! Less talking more taco time
😆🤣
No idea why everyones talking shit about the guy who provided excellent commentary for the taco culture. Do people these days not have hobbies? If we start talking cars I can go 3 straight hours without taking a breath. People hating because this guy has a passion need to evaluate themselves.
I mean, I'm watching a video about tacos, I want to hear about tacos, so I actually enjoy hearing the dude talking about tacos.
Im a mexican , been to the states many times , specially Cali and yeah the tacos are the same as in Mexico , actually ive had some carnitas at some market in L.A and those are by far the best carnitas ive ever had , the pork has more flavor up in the staes
Damn it- This video just makes me miss Mexico City so much!! 🥺😩🌮...
nothing like a good chat and delicious tacos for the nite 😋👍🥟
I misread the photo, I thought it said "Superlaxitives" LOL
People hating on the dude but he's hella proud of the LA culture and he's telling us why
For real! haters will be haters though
the dude talks too much!! Joe just wanted some freaking tacos!!!
im glad im mexican and my mom tacos omg are the best because my GRANDMA used to be chef i missed her RIP grandma that my mom aka mom so yeah i missed MEXICO
8-15-2020
Grandmas are so calm and chilled- i miss mine too!!!!!
I remember driving passed this once but never had the chance when I was back in LA for a couple months. I thought it was over rated but man I wish I went once at least
Food Insider....
Thank you... Another food establishment to place on my BUCKET LIST. 🌮🌮🌮🌮
Damn there’ goes this hidden spot now
Yea dude...went there with the fam when we went to LA last year,it was full of hype beasts and just cool ppl,and now it’s just gonna be filled with hipsters now :(
menotplaying not even worth it man. All the good taco stands are in south central
I thought the end of the title said "Superlaxitives"
Still worth it
Homeboy is repping my band's patch. Nerve Grind. Sickassfoo.
if its $1 on a normal day, imagine buying it on a taco tuesday
Really, if there's a street food restaurant that is serving its food for less than $5, it will undoubtedly be one of the best places you could ever go to eat.
Wow $4 tacos in New York!!! What a Shame!!!! You are on my Bucket list!!! Love it, Viva Mexìco ❤
First time being there was at a bike meet that place is awesome
In México they cost even less than $1. It's freaking paradise
He is a guy and talks a lot. Thats rare 😝
Ain't rare, I've met only talkative guys my life
cocaine bro
lol true
Maybe he's gay
@@abhijitpatil1775 I didn't know being talkative means your gay
5:35 you can tell he was like “ come on man let’s go chow already”!!! 😂
Dude's in love with the coko
Lmao he even taught him how to eat in a hood of a car 💀
Yum!
This dude. Really said TaCo LiFe. And I’m here for it 😂😂
I miss living in CA I used to come here and damn it was so so delicious, so hard to find good street food here in AZ, I was so spoiled in Southern CA delicious street food
Bruh there is also one here in Milwaukee and they good af
dude got the coke sniffles, lmao. starting at 4:53
Thats why he talks so much
Damn
The guy really like to hear himself talk, a lot!
Chalino in the background makes me happy bruh
Mexican tacos son los mejores!!! No one can top Mexican tacos !!! Viva Mexico !!! 🇲🇽
Bueno, qual otra cultura tiene tacos? No seas pendejo guey.
It's a great deal for sure, especially for that quality. I can see why it's popular
I live like 10 minutes from there they are best tacos 🔥🔥🇲🇽🇲🇽
The valley refers to a series of county's in sough texas called the Rio Grande Valley, it's mainly hispanic but we chill and make good food.
The look on Joe's face when this guy was talking non stop😂😂😂😂😂
In Mexico you get 5 pastor tacos for $1 dollar.
Mexico tacos are the Kings especially Mexico City D.F
@Johnnie Boi Mexico D.f is the motherland
@SouthLosAngeles _Kid yeah
do they all have some talkative dude next to them?? like drooling over their spot?? like he enjoys it as an orgasm release?
5.43 - he’s like dude stop talking and yapping on 😂😂😂
As someone who lives in LA, I can say we have some great street tacos.
This man got that colombian cold
That little Dork is a Taco expert now!
I’ve been there a few times many years ago, and I remember hearing that they have to clear out all of a sudden when the cops come around. It was like a backyard party atmosphere there.
WOW! Now that's what I call Tacos!
You should try it. It's amazing. I went here last year: czcams.com/video/WEREiBftkEs/video.html
