“ As always it's so good. Corn Man always delivers. As of 12/14/2024 the price for each bowl of esquites is $5. It has doubled since my last picture but oh still so worth it. Somehow at the time of my visit they no longer allow parking inside the lot. So it's only street parking available. Come early and come with a partner in case you couldn't find parking. ”

“ Vale la pena la espera, algunas veces tenemos que esperar unos 20-30 minutos pero vale la pena porque los elotes y los esquites estan ricos y les ponen bastante queso yummy yummy! ”

“ If you like unique food spots with some mind-blowing flavors, open odd hours of the day, you have to come visit Cornman. I initially read about Cornman and his corn cart on LA Times website and it turns out he is a legend. This gentleman and his son have been running this mexican corn cart, close to DTLA, for the last 20 some years. First time I tried their food 7 some years ago, I instantly fell in love. You gotta park in a dark parking lot, after 11 pm at night in a so so part of town. Then you get in a long line, but as you start approaching, you know food paradise is very close. I've tried their delicious corn on the cob, but I absolutely love their esquite bowl, filled with delicious corn and topped with mayo, spices, cheese and freshly squeezed lime or lemon. You mix it up with spoon in the parking lot and indulge on it right from the trunk of your car. The corn mixed with mayo, cheese and spices just creates that yummy happiness in your mouth that's just hard to describe. I've gone for 2 consecutive bowls before. It's outrageously good and from the legend of LA streets, the Corn Man himself! And don't forget to mention to him "Simon, con lemon". See you again soon, my guy! ”

“ Corn Man in Los Angeles is a must-visit for elote lovers. This popular food truck serves up some of the best Mexican street corn in the city, often drawing long lines that speak to its popularity. The elote is rich and buttery, generously topped with mayo, cheese, chili, and a squeeze of lime, delivering a perfect balance of flavors. Whether you choose it on the cob or in a cup, the experience is communal and lively, especially late at night when cravings hit. With quick service despite the crowds, Corn Man is a quintessential LA food experience that's worth the wait for any food adventurer ”

“ fun to eat, I think I waited 30 minutes on a Tuesday? $4 for elote in a bowl, $1 for a soda (drinks are chilled in a cooler with ice). he came around 11:45-11:50PM and I waited with a friend. don't know if I'd wait an hour for this like other reviews say but after a long work day this was really fun to eat. I had cash with me, they don't take venmo or zelle I think would recommend mixing if you get a bowl and the toppings do add up so be a little careful if you're mixing it. would go again! ”

“ I was super skeptical at first about waiting almost an hour in line for corn but it was like the best corn I've had. My friend and I showed up at around 12:40am and didn't get to buy some corn until 1:30am. I was getting pretty tired of waiting but when I got that fresh corn I was so happy. At first I didn't really mix it too much and just ate it and I thought it was alright but when I mixed all the toppings together with the cheese, butter, sour cream, chili, and lime it was phenomenal. The more I ate it the more addicting it was. I really liked the chili they put on top of the corn and it was definitely the star topping. However the corn itself very caloric considering the amount of butter they put on it but it's definitely amazing. My friend and I actually had some tacos too and we put the corn on top of the tacos and OMG please try this combo. The corn was super sweet which paired so well with the savory tacos. The corn man is also super kind and nice and we love supporting local businesses. I'll definitely be back but I'll probably try to come later into the night so the line isn't super long. ”

“ BEST ELOTE EVER!! I have been coming to Corn Man for years and it's always consistent. Whenever my craving for elote kicks in, I have to make a stop here. I waited about 1.5 hours in the cold and it was so worth it. The price for a bowl or corn on the cob has increased to $4. The line forms at around 11pm, but he does not arrive till around 12am. I usually get the elote in a bowl rather than on the cob since it is much more convenient. PERFECT for a late-night snack. -- Corn in a Bowl [5/5]: YUM. They put mayo, butter, chili powder, cheese, and a squeeze of lime juice on top. It is a bowl of deliciousness. ”

“ Upping my review to 4 stars. I would give 5 stars if the corn man had an exact time he came. Even though yelp says 11:30pm, their Twitter account says 11:15pm, it varies and really depends. For the most part he usually comes between 11:30-11:50pm. Still delicious with tons of cheese! As of June 2024 Esquites $4 Champurrado $1.50 ”

“ Okay, I love corn. Pretty much in all its forms (bourbon, popcorn, etc.). When I heard of this place, I knew I had to go. Because, when you hear of a place/person called 'The Corn Man', you know you're gonna get some corn. Well, elote and esquite, to be exact. The prices are great here! As of 4/2024, it's $4 each. The corn is pre-cooked or steamed and when you order, you just go over your options like if you want the spice or not and if you want to have some lime squeezed onto it. I got one of each - the elote and esquite. Essentially the same thing, just a different way of eating it. Same ingredients. Such a simple, but very delicious bite. Up there with as good as I've ever had. So, I was skeptical or just wasn't sure when I first saw the times listed. But they really do set up and start up around midnight. When you show up to the location around that time, you can definitely see the line forming, waiting for them to begin serving. It's pretty chill in line and people are generally friendly because we're all happy and excited to be trying this soon. From what it sounds like or what I gathered during my visit, this gentleman has been serving up corn for decades. If what I heard is correct, you gotta love the hustle and I love supporting folks like this. Definitely would like to come back and more often, but I think it's geared towards the night owls or people getting out of the bars because of the hours. And I live pretty far away. ”
