This place has a very nice outside dinning area. Kinda has a romantic ambiance about it. Prices are really high at Balam and portions of their food are small. I ordered one Pastor Pork Taco for $4.50. It was very tasty but three bites and I ate it all. I recommend Balam because the food is delicious. I gave three stars because of the high prices for their food.
The tacos are not worth the price! I would definitely not recommend this place. Tacos were too small, salty and over priced. They welcome you with chips and a spoon full of salsa. Which was good and the portion was not even for one person. We were a party of 4. First and last time eating here. The plates were chipped and smelled like they weren't washed correctly.
Excellent taco joint. Worth seeking out. Great little patio and a good amount of parking. The pastor taco was excellent as was the pibil taco. I'll be back!
One of Lynwood’s few good restaurants. Hard to get to by car but has a welcoming decor. Good aesthetics design and food. Parking is available with limited spots.
When I worked for Compton Unified School District, I used to take my staff here for Taco ? Tuesday.... We ALWAYS had a great time ? The chef would let me try the latest hot sauce ? The Best Tortilla Maker In The World Was In The Back ? She added a little wisdom to our lives with each visit and the staff was like FAMILY ?? I will definitely have to visit soon ~ I really miss this fantastic restaurant ?
I live on the east coast where the Mexican food can be a bit lacking. Getting a nice plate of tacos or burritos is the first think I do when I visit California. I went to Balam right after arriving in LA, and it did not disappoint! The portions were large, the food was fresh, and the hot sauces (which seemed homemade) were the star of the show! Service was awesome too. I loved the little outdoor courtyard and the festive music.
The best cheese flan ever, all the flavors are delicious,Coconut, Mexican coffee, Mango, Rompope, Choco-Nut, Cheese, Cajeta, All are WOW!!!
If you are looking to have Mexican food, try this place! The tortillas are made fresh. The combination of the cabbage, meat of your choice, and chipotle sauce is great. The food isn't spicy . I don't live in Lynwood anymore but excited for this little spot to make its mark. Off the 105 fwy exit Long Beach! It is a fusion of flavors❣️
My experience going to this Mexican kitchen was pretty good, the tortillas were made by hand, the micheladas are very refreshing! More of a spot to bring your friends or hang out by yourself! A nice spot to get some lunch. A bit pricey but worth it for some great food.
Absolutely floored by the quality of this place. The only thing I didnt like was that I didnt order one everything on the menu.
