Sarah’s Place

Los Angeles, CA

Mexican

$10 or less

In a residential area of East LA, Sarah’s is a haven for hearty Mexican food. Here you will find a traditional menu of the Mexican standards - I usually get a carne asada or chicken taco and taquitos. The best thing, and most unique dish at Sarah’s is the salsa - the perfect mix of spice, cut with chunks of avocado. Street parking, and just minutes from downtown LA, east of Macy. Questionable area in East LA, lunch is a safe bet. If Sara’s is closed, try the sandwich shop across the street which is very good.
