Teddy's Red Tacos: Birria Tachos Specialist

We are on a quest for good birria tacos and Teddy's Red Tacos is on my list located at Echo Park. Teddy also have a taco store just right off the Venice Boardwalk. 


Teddy Vazquez started selling tacos on the weekends in a little warehouse back in October 2016. At the beginning, business wasn't good so he drive for Uber on the weekdays. People often ask him what's that smell in the car and he would tell people that he actually sell tacos. Within 9 months, he was able to buy his first taco truck and the rest is history. 

Teddy has been featured on the Super Bowl Commercial as a courtesy of ESPN Deportes, which wanted to highlight a small business owner instead of models or cars. Chrissy Teigen even brought the entire taco truck to her house for Taco Tuesdays.


The tacos here are exceptionally delicious! Each corn tortillas are dipped in a special beef broth then back to the grill for the extra flavor. Each bite of tacos are filled with handful of juicy meat rich in spices, onions, cilantro and hot sauce. They use shoulder cut from the beef boiled for hours until it is perfectly tender.

We ordered the famous deluxe plate consists of four items (Taco, Tostada, Molita & Quesadilla) since we want to try them all. The broth in a cup is the perfect companion for winter.

No doubt we will definitely return to Teddy's Red Tacos. I am so hungry while writing this...
