Tacos Tamix

Look for the bright yellow-and-red truck—and probably a line—to find Tacos Tamix, one of L.A.'s premier al pastor slingers. You've got four spots to choose from: Mid-City, Pico Union, Culver City and the Arts District, all worth heading to for some of the best tacos in town. The must-order is the vibrant red pork sliced from the trompo and folded into a tiny corn tortilla, with a little wedge of pineapple atop it all. But Tamix widens its focus, specializing in what it calls the "'T' bites": tacos, tortas and tlayudas (though the burritos aren't bad either).
