Now now people calm down. First of all, Eddie ran it fine many years after Senior retired and yes, it went great till he got married. Not sure what happened there but no one was very happy with the new wife trying to take over. Yes, ended up selling and he admitted it was the biggest mistake he ever made. I too will forever miss that place. FYI....no more Ed Taco nights "Eddie moved away!

I remember Ed Taco from when I was a kid. I drove 40 miles to go get some last year and felt like crying when I found out it was closed. Ed Taco will be missed.

a diner from Obviously in West Covina, CA.
What the hell happened to this place? I used to go there all the time then when Ed Jr. took over, all was well until he got married. A couple of years later, they closed. No explanation, no warning - JUST GONE. Really? For a place that opened in 1969 and had such a good customer base (not to mention a good location), you would think that it would have been thought through before pulling the plug. Apparently they now have Ed Taco nights at the Moose Lodge or something which is never announced to the public. I thought this place would go on for generations. Such a disappointment. No one wants to go to Shrimp Boat.
I ate at Ed Taco every day. Their will never be anything like it. I am from the Taco Lito / Taco Paco days when I used to live in west covina. The only other restaurant still around and unchaged is Carmens mexican food in Azusa. They still Rock !!! No one will ever duplicate ED TACO !!

a diner from Escondido California but we used to love in West Convina
I LOOOOVED Ed Taco!!! My husband and I used to go there every chance we got. Then the owner Ed passed away and he left it to his greedy sons. Big mistake. HUGE. He probably had no idea that these parasites would seel it the first chance they got after the old man died. We weren't the only ones that loved Ed Taco. It was a fixture on West Convina for years. As long as we could remember. I'm postive Ed must still be turning over in his grave and the shear betrayal of his sons. We miss you Ed Taco!!!
