While a trip to In-n-Out Burger satisfies our burger cravings, a trip to Tito's Tacos is just as important to satisfy our taco cravings.  I have named Tito's as the In-n-Out of taco stands.  Simple menu, quality ingredients and low prices.  If you are ever flying in or out of Los Angeles International Airport I highly recommend that you set your GPS for Tito's Tacos in Culver City.  Just minutes away from the airport.  We literally tried everything on the menu during our last visit.  My Dads wife Heide ordered one of everything so we could try all of the different items and tastes.  Search this blog for all the photos.  This visit we went for just tacos and one Tostada for the heck of it.   At Tito's you can order at the outside window or a small inside window.  Whatever window you go to there will be a line.  Tito's is always busy.  Service is fast though so you are not waiting a long time.  You order at the window and the girl flies around the kitchen preparing your items.  The tacos are placed in a box and then covered with a top.  When you open your box you immediately notice the cheese.  Mounds of cheddar topping each taco.  The tacos are simple; shredded beef, lettuce and cheese.  They give you a ton of salsa for the tacos and chips.  The salsa is made fresh daily and taste like it just came from a fresh tomato.  I pour the salsa down the inside of the taco all the way across the tortilla.  I want that salsa to absorb into the meat so you taste the meat, salsa, lettuce and cheese in every single bite.  The tacos are crisp.  Great texture with the shredded beef, lettuce and cheese.  This is taco heaven.  Nothing fancy.  No sour creme, guacamole, onion, cilantro or any other ingredient that will take away from the flavor of the beef and cheese.  Don't get me wrong.  I love other ingredients on tacos too.  The Tito's Taco is just classic in its basic form.  You really don't need anything else.  If I had a Tito's Taco in my neighborhood, I would never visit a Taco Bell again.  This is a TASTE OF HAWAII FAVORITE.

TITO'S TACOS - CULVER CITY

TITO'S TACOS
CULVER CITY, CALIFORNIA 

We drove by Tito's Tacos and saw a line before 11:00 am.  We drove by again and saw a line even longer in the evening.  My Dad's wife Heide (bless her soul), said that we had to try a Tito's Taco.  I am always in search of a good taco and was more than happy to stop in.  Perhaps this would be the one stop that would "wow" me during our visit to California.  We began by waiting in line outside, but then discovered that there was indoor seating and another line of windows inside where it was warm.  Without hesitation, Heide went to the window and ordered just about everything on the menu for us to try.  Tacos, burrito, tamale, chili, two kinds of enchiladas and a weeks worth of chips and salsa.  THANK YOU HEIDE.  This was awesome.  I immediately attacked the tacos ($1.75 plus $.60 for cheese).  A crunchy taco that is filled with shredded beef and then deep fried.  Toss on some lettuce, cheese and their fresh salsa and you have one of the best tacos in Los Angeles.  I absolutely loved my Tito's Taco.  They have a crunch and flavor that is addicting.  No wonder people line up in droves and happily carry out boxes of these Mexican treats.  It is amazing to see box after box of tacos coming out of the kitchen.  The rows of tacos are placed in a box and then covered with a lid for save travel.  Tito's does it right.  They have a very limited menu.  When you order a taco, it comes one way.  Beef with or without cheese.  Thats it.  We also tried the burrito.  This is a large tortilla filled with pure meat and sauce.  Nothing else unless you request beans or cheese.  It was good, but the tacos really kept my mouth watering.  The Chicken and Beef Enchiladas were good but pretty much taste the same.  The Tamale was mostly Masa so it was not my favorite.  The Chili was good.  I think it is the same meat and sauce used in the burrito.  The beans and rice here are excellent and the fresh salsa is really good.  The chips are made fresh and served warm.  I could sit there and eat these things for hours.
