“ I had a great time at Tainos LA. I had the Mofongo with garlic, topped with Shrimp and brown rice. Look at the pictures. This was my firsttime eating Puerto Rican food. It was delicious. The combination of the Platens, Chicharron and Shrimp were very tasty. The sauce with peppers complimented the shrimp. It was really good! Edwin brought the recipes and Nick and his wife have created a Ghost kitchen that offers quick pick up, catering and food delivery. When I was there. Nick was getting many orders out. This place is busy. I can see why. If you have never had a Mofongo, I highly recommend it. ”
“ I bought a thanksgiving plate , I was really missing my cultures food and tainos did not disappoint. Everything was delicious tastes just like puertorican food in the Bronx. One bite and it was like I was transported back to the Bronx with friends and family. It is a ghost kitchen but they are expanding. Highly recommend going to try to get a Christmas plate, pick up was easy and location has parking. ”
“ PUERTO RICO via Eat the World Los Angeles This food will take you straight back to wherever you enjoyed your first Puerto Rican homecooked meals. ... ”
“ I felt at home here right away. Coming from Queens, Nueva York its hard to find Puerto Rican food. But Tainos LA came to save the day. The Mofongo was garlicky just the way that I like it. The chicharron that came with it was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. My bff had the Mofongo with shrimp that was well seasoned. We got the alcapurria which was very tasty. 3 empanadas, one of chicken, beef and pizza. Yo, all three were perfect. The owner and the family are really nice and are working hard in the kitchen getting out the orders. I hope they are able to expand closer to Bellflower in the future. ”
“ The food is so good, the juices are fresh tasty and healthy, and the people are awesome friendly. I love places like this where you have to discover whats behind a door that doesnt look like a typical restaurant, and they did not disappoint! Very glad to have tried the delicious food from Tainos LA will definitely go back again. Great food, great place. Take out only. ”
“ The food was exceptional! I had the Mofongo con Camarones, it was delicious packed with flavor. The Tostones were thick and tasty, the sauce was amazing too. It took me back to my little island of PR. The service was absolutely amazing and very friendly. Super down to earth family. 110 would order again and again. ”
“ Food was absolutely delicious, fresh and flavourful. Its little tricky to locate the pick up spot, because this building is shared by multiple food vendors. If you get lost in the maze, Tainos LA is door no.20. There is no dining option, its more like a pick up place. Food was ready to pickup in 25 mins. I will definitely recommend this place and will visit again. ”
“ SuperDelicious Puerto Rican Food!! We showed up not knowing that they were closed that Sunday for a big catering job that they were doing. But they treated us so well and made time for us and it was great meeting them and talking to them. They prepared some great food for us to go, which we later enjoyed in the car. I cannot wait to eat their food again. ”
