BALAM Mexican Kitchen

1st time here on a Sunday afternoon! Posole bomb! Agua de Pepino delish! The salsita picante how I like it !! Taco governador was aight!! There was abt a 25mins wait, but worth it!

We was so glad to find this little gem for some authentic Mexican food and we was not disappointed. The food came out in good time and came out hot too. The food was full of flavour and generous portions too. If I lived in LA I’d always be eating out at this place but I advise you, if your passing through, stop here and try what you can while your here.

Food here is really delicious, they have some unique tacos you have to try, burritosate always stuffed & they also have a barista making best tasting coffee in lynwood/Los Angeles And the micheladas here are flavorful. You won't want to skip on trying one...

Cool spot, great food. It’s traditional mexican with a slight modern and Asian fusion spin. Not all out fusion or modern but just enough to make it unique. I can see some people not liking it as much if they want just fully traditional flavors but I thought it was excellent. Service was great and the spot is cool. Extra points for offering something dope in the neighborhood.

I can’t speak to the food or the service as it closed at 6pm instead of 8pm but this place seems like a hidden gem & I thought people should know that the outdoor patio is totally covered & surrounded by plants, total vibe

Omg, this is one of those small, amazing restaurants that you have to check out. My friend dragged me here and was so happy she did that she did the food was amazing. We had 7 different tacos, each with amazing ingredients and flavors. If you are in the area, you must stop by this place will not disappoint.

I've been coming here for some time and have been lagging it on a review. Well, this spot is definitely a gem serving great authentic Mexican food. I went for a quick bite, grabbed a horchata, 2 Korean asada tacos, 1 al pastor, 1 chicken tinga, and 1 Barbacoa taco. Horchata is on the sweet side, but it is damn good. From least to best, barbacoa was my least favorite, but it's because I hardly ever have it. Slow braised beef, pickled onion, and cilantro. Regardless, it was juicy, cilantro, and pickled onions, give it a great flavor al throughout, I added some lime and fuego. Al pastor taco consists of marinated pork loin, white onions, pastor sauce, and cilantro. Everything in this taco was on point. Meat was juicy, onions, and cilantro give that vibrant taste. Pastor sauce gives extra pastor flavor. Pineapple would be the best, but still great taco. Chicken Tinga Taco has pulled chicken breast, chipotle sauce, cilantro, and pickled onions. I love me some tinga, and this taco doesn't disappoint flavorful chicken in Chipotle sauce, gives you kicks of spiciness to your mouth, cilantro and pickled onions battle it out for control of flavor but everything goes so well and balanced together, love it. My favorite is Korean Asada Taco, marinated sliced beef, slaw, and chipotle sauce. This taco is so fire it is a Mexican Asian fusion that will blow your mind. The marinated beef has a slight sweet ginger flavor that gives those Asian vibes and goes well with the slaw, then you get the chipotle to kick it up some spice, pairing heat with sweet you won't want it to end. Great menu, clean restaurant, and fast service. Definitely recommend it. I will keep coming back. 5 stars, hands down

My family loves this place and I come here every time I'm home. Tacos al pastor are my favorite but I've never had a bad meal here. Anything you order will be delicious. Plus I love their patio.
