Is it “Taco Tuesday” yet?! Are you craving tacos? If the answer is yes, I highly recommend you check out Plancha Tacos, A Taco Joint. There are three locations — Venice, Beverly Hills, and Van Nuys. Plancha strikes a balance between fun and fresh and the entire menu is available all day long.

This “joint” offers delicious street and signature tacos. They are serious about their authentic tacos! There are many choices to enjoy (fish two ways, chicken, steak, beef, and veggie), including breakfast selections of tacos and burritos (also available as low-carb bowls) enchiladas, and quesadillas. They’re best known for the Spicy Shrimp Tacos and they are indeed to die for! The shrimp is full of savory flavor and not too spicy.

Plancha is vegetarian-friendly with lots of unique options. I really enjoyed the Potato Taquitos with a specialty sauce and bean dip. Yum! You can also choose from six different hearty salads or burrito bowls. The Grilled Fajita Veggie Quesadilla or Burrito sounded really good; I’m planning to try one on my next visit. The Vegetarian Carrot Ginger Soup is another unique option. With a menu like this — tacos, quesadillas (with chicken, steak, and mushrooms), burritos, taquitos, enchiladas, salads, fajitas, and more), this is a scrumptious one-stop shop! Open daily 8am to midnight and 1am on Friday and Saturday.
