Gish Bac
Gish Bac is a Oaxacan restaurant on West Washington Boulevard in the Arlington Heights area of Los Angeles, known for chile-rubbed goat barbacoa.
Overview
Gish Bac is located at 4163 West Washington Boulevard in Arlington Heights. Bill Esparza included its goat barbacoa in Los Angeles magazine's 2016 list of the 25 best tacos in Los Angeles, describing slow-roasted, chile-rubbed goat served for diners to assemble into tacos themselves, and crediting three generations of family expertise.
Context
Barbacoa refers to meat slow-cooked until it falls apart, and the format at Gish Bac, where meat, tortillas and garnishes arrive for diners to build their own tacos, turns the meal into a shared, do-it-yourself plate. Sources reviewed do not give the founding date or the owners' names.
