Tacos La Flama
Friday, April 29, 2005 12:13Beside having one of the greatest names for a taco joint, Tacos La Flama also has some great, quick mexican food. For me, the “usual” is the wet chicken burrito which has shredded chicken, cheese, rice, beans and is smothered in enchilada sauce and some more cheese. Low calorie, it’s not, but when I get home with the tin take out tray, the steaming burrito is a real treat.
There is also a meat counter at the back of the restaurant, but I have never tried it. The carne asada looks incredible and the prices are reasonable. In addition to the cooked dishes, there is a variety of pan dulce baked treats that seem very popular.
If you’re looking for a filling, tasty and cheap meal, Tacos La Flama is a great place to stop at the corner of Pico and Barrington.

Actually that number above is for the meat counter. The number for the restaurant side is (310) 479-5383, I think.
But yeah, this is a damn fine place. It’s the closest burrito I can get to Cuca’s in Redland (the best burrito ever).

I got the al pastor and that was really good. Good quality tortillas. I was a bit let down by the carne asada.
