Master Critic Review

La Esquina 7.6
Palms
A busy neighborhood grill for classic Westside burritos, tacos, and plates that skew hearty and familiar. Reviews show some variability, but the long-running demand and medium-high volume keep it in the reliable tier for everyday Mexican comfort. Best when you want something fast, hot, and straightforward.
Must-Try Dishes: Carne asada burrito, Al pastor tacos, Chile verde plate
