A Ti­ - Los Angeles

A Ti revolutionizes LA’s taco scene with innovative Mexican-Japanese fusion tacos in Echo Park. Chef Andrew Ponce creates inventive small plates like striped bass tacos with Japanese Kewpie mayo, al pastor with pineapple, and Japanese sweet potato (satsumaimo) tacos. The standout crispy duck mole taco features blue corn tortillas with date-sweetened mole – think ‘Peking duck meets Mexican tradition.’ The $50 lamb neck birria showcases slow-cooked perfection for special occasions. Modern atmosphere complements creative dishes that blend coastal Mexican flavors with Japanese techniques. Customer favorites include the kampachi crudo with honey crisp apples and the fusion approach that makes diners ‘stop and say whoa.’ Open Tuesday-Sunday 5pm-10pm (11pm Friday-Saturday), Sunday brunch 11am-3pm. Reservations recommended for this contemporary Mexican tapas experience.
