"Set up right in front of the Walgreens on Sunset Blvd, El Ruso serves some of the best Sonoran-style tacos in LA. Each is served on a warm, handmade flour tortilla and topped with options like smoky chopped carne asada, braised chile colorado, and spicy chicharron en salsa roja. El Ruso’s tacos hover around $5 each, and we usually get full with an order of two or three (especially after adding stewed pintos, cabbage, and diced onion to create a hearty beast of a taco). They also serve a one-of-a-kind burrito wrapped in a giant, stretchy hubcap-sized Sonoran flour tortilla that’s bursting at the seams and will sustain you for several hours.
