Ponchos Taqueria | Our Story
The taqueria at Plaza Del Valle
Tucked into Plaza Del Valle on Van Nuys Boulevard, Ponchos Taqueria is the kind of place locals keep to themselves — then can't stop recommending. The food does all the talking.
A local word-of-mouth favorite
Ponchos earned its following one taco at a time — passed along between San Fernando Valley regulars. When the SFV food community trades under-the-radar picks, Ponchos makes the list.
The birria draw
The birria is what brings people in the first time — rich, slow-cooked, and served with consommé for dipping — and it's what brings them back. Ponchos has been recognized among the best birria spots in Los Angeles by the Corner guide.
A stop in the neighborhood
The setup is refreshingly unpretentious: order at the window, grab a seat outside in the plaza, and eat well without spending much. That approachable, no-fuss atmosphere is exactly why regulars keep returning.
