Tito's Tacos


Supposed to be a classic taco joint in Culver City. On the Jonathan Gold list. It is a certain kind of old fashioned American-style taco. I liked the simplicity of the place, but the set up was curiously inefficient. It is very popular and there are 4 lines to take an order. But once you get to the front, you order and then wait for your order. When it comes, you pay for it and wait, while your order-taker goes and stands in line with the other order takers for the cashier. When the order taker finally gets your change, he brings it back to you. It was amongst the dumbest set ups I've ever seen. Have these people never been to an In and Out burger and see how they handle volume. Anyhow, the taco was solid and enchilada good. I went around 2:30pm today and just needed a break from writing, so didn't mind the wait. But under normal circumstances, no thanks.
