Olvera Street is the birthplace of Los Angeles! Now it’s a tiny tourist trap with serapes and masks everywhere and some little tacos shops.
At Rodolfo’s we enjoyed some very authentic asada, chicken, and carnitas tacos there. Then we ordered a more-American hard shell taco which was fried-to-order – yes! Getting these tacos at such a tourist trap makes me believe that even bad California tacos are better than most east coast tacos.
My husband has been eating here as long as he can remember. Since we got together he has taken me there a lot of times too and it is our favourite place for Mexican food. I love the enchiladas and the beans. My husband loves the taquitos there too.
