Most any Inglewood native will recall visiting Acosta Tacos to satisfy his or her appetite for authentic Mexican food. Jaime Acosta Senior created the original Acosta Tacos Mexican food chain in 1985 by opening eateries on La Brea Avenue, N. Prairie Avenue and Imperial High- way. After many years of service providing quality food to the Inglewood area he passed away in 1999. His sons and daughter managed the family business until 2011.

 

For those who lamented the closing of Los Acosta Tacos, cry no more. If you’ve been craving a great burrito or some authentic tacos then you will be happy to know that Los Acosta tacos has reestablished itself.

A new restaurant has settled nicely into a fairly new location in Morningside Park on the corner of Manchester Boulevard and Crenshaw Boulevard. Of course, the staff still aims at satisfying your cravings for authentic Mexican food.

 

Upon the closing of Los Acosta Tacos, Julian Cesar Acosta and his wife, Estela Acosta, ventured off and started a Mexican catering service inspired by the Acosta Tacos menu. Soon after the two decided it was time to get Acosta Tacos back to Inglewood for everyone to enjoy on a regular basis. Los Acosta Tacos reopened in February of 2012 with the same menu as the original chains as well as the additions of tortas, quesadillas and the burrito supreme.

 

“I just want to continue my father’s legacy by providing authentic Mexican food and to serve the Inglewood community and surrounding areas,” said Julian when asked about the re-establishment of Los Acosta Tacos.
