    Stopped by on a friday right at 1pm to pick up lunch, drove right up to the drive thru. After ordering could see the cook making my california burrito fresh. You could tell he was hustling, took a good couple of mins but well worth it. Burrito was one of the better Cali burritos Ive had recently. Love the shoe string fries. Didn't like that a "mission viejo" burrito online which comes with sour cream and guac cost $14 but a california burrito add guac comes out to be $17 for the same item. Next time I'll just do that. But burrito wise, definitely hit the spot and was damn good.

    California burrito
    Brian F.

    Albertacos has multiple locations across Southern California and Colorado. This location in Orange is on a corner intersection with a small parking lot. We ordered the California burrito ($13.25) and the carne asada fries ($17.99). The burrito had a lot of sour cream, some fries, and not much meat or anything else at all. The carne asada fries were thin which was good but the only fresh ingredient was the small amount of pico in the guacamole. It needed something refreshing and they just didn't have it. However, I still liked it more than the burrito. Another interesting observation was that their red and green sauces came in pre-sealed packets instead of containers with lids which made me question just how fresh they were. For the price and what I got for them, they just weren't very good and I've had much better elsewhere. Their drive-through is open 24/7 which is probably one of the only good things about it.

    My late night Uber Eats order - carne asada fries (wrong order) and 3 rolled carne asada tacos
    Debbie S.

    So I need to start off by saying that I love this place. It's by go to when I'm visiting and staying in this area of Anaheim. But the reason why I'm giving this review 3 stars is because they messed up by Uber Eats order, and I was unable to get the meal I actually wanted because of not having a car for them to correct their error. However, the mistaken carne asada fries that they did give me (instead of a carne asada burrito) was still good. And their rolled tacos was crunchy as ever as I like them. Please just pay attention to an order when packing it especially when it's being picked up by a delivery service.

    Carne Asada Nachos
    Tanya W.

    I always only order from here on DoorDash so I can't speak on service or ambiance. Some of the reviews here scare me even. But I do want to talk about how I enjoy my nachos. I specifically enjoy my nachos without the queso cheese and more with an oven baked style where the cheese is solid. This is the only place nearby, open late night when I have my cravings, and has it. It really does fulfill that kick. And the portions are great. Honestly, I love that one dish I get. And will get it again from them sometime soon.

    $2 extra for a cold lump of cheese
    Chris W.

    Sitting here in the parking lot, during prime lunch hours, I have only seen one other car order food, I think I can tell you why... this place actually has decent food, but they nickle and dime you for everything! A basic lunch today of a bean and cheese burrito, shredded beef taco, and iced tea- totaled $20.84. I wasn't aware that I would be charged an additional $2 for asking for cheese on my bean burrito. The cheese added was not distributed equally, and there was a big lump of unmelted cheese at the bottom as I was finishing the burrito. It's just not worth it to eat here... so pay attention owners! Maybe the late night college kids keep you in business, but you should be ashamed for treating loyal customers like this and it's no way to be successful.

    Order an asada fries. Let me say this... this gotta be the worst fries ever. I don't really write reviews even if the food is bad, but the fries was hard as a rock and tasted so cold and old. Never ordering this place again sorry. 1 star tho for the horchata, the horchata was my dinner. Btw the fork couldn't even poke some fries

    Carne Asada Fries
    Brandon D.

    What a rip off! $18 for this? There was barely any carne asada. It was mainly just fries and sour cream. Was still hungry afterwards. Very disappointed as the other Albertacos are generally pretty good, but sadly not this location.

    Carne Asada Burrito.
    Daniel D.

    Decided to give this place a second chance after eating a really cold burrito while dining in, and the burrito wasn't cold this time. The redemption arc of this burrito is truly a sight to behold. Came in on a Saturday afternoon as the only customer. Service was quick and the staff was pleasant. I ordered Carne Asada Burrito and a large horchata. Horchata has only failed me in life once before, and I'm glad that the record remains the same after drinking their horchata. The burrito was decent. Nothing too crazy about it, I'm just happy it wasn't cold like last time.

    Breakfast Burritos "Extra bacon"
    Shawn M.

    I'm not one who normally complains about portioning but if I'm paying nearly $5 for "Extra Bacon" I should not be getting a couple crumbles of it throughout my whole burrito no exaggeration, while many other spots that's will give more bacon for their regular portion, burrito wasn't too bad itself.

Start cleaning out underneath your table pushing you out as fast as they can. The bar just closes down not even announcing a last call. And what is with those awful margaritas. I can't believe that a Michelin feathered Mexican restaurant can serve such awful margaritas. And I am not alone as I mentioned it to another Restaurant crowd and they agreed and said they were probably the worst margaritas in Orange. I don't know whether it's the mix or the amount of alcohol or what it is but they come out watery and really sour. A totally good dining experience has to encompass everything, food is only 50% of the deal the other 50% is service with a smile, and this one lacks it. Now there could be a reason for this epic shutdown at 9 PM. But I wonder what it is? Santa Monica seafood in Santa Monica on Wilshire Boulevard has to have last orders in by 8:30 because if they are not closed out by 10 o'clock entirely, the neighbors complain that they are putting out trash and making a noise after 10 so that I understand. But it took me a year to find that out from the owners. Restaurant owners are so stuck up and anal, I know I was one. Gabbi, whom I have never seen, should spend a night or two watching her Restaurant closing up.

The beans did not taste watered down, and the enchiladas themselves were flavorful. I always worry about shrimp overpowering the sides of a dish but it tasted great. The rice was also really filling. We had a reservation and they seated us at a pretty big table, which I liked. The servers were very timely, kind, and knowledgeable about each dish on the menu and the rotating specials. The inside of the restaurant was HUGE. I'm pretty sure it was built inside of a church. I really liked the stained glass and elevated seating areas nearby, it reminded me of the Old Spaghetti Factory layout in Fullerton. Overall, I had a very positive experience. I had to get a Diet Coke and of course, it was crisp to my expectations. A little heads-up, unlike the Costa Mesa location, they do not have horchata.

But once again one has this perfunctory service, that is service that is merely to get through a night and not to enhance a dining experience.

I don't get it. Don't they get paid more than they used to just a year or two ago. Anyway, I do enjoy the Camerones. But, the dreadful flan that I was served. This is such a basic desert and very easy to make, but one can overcook the egg proteins easily and the whole thing is grainy, scrambled and not pleasant to eat. Basically it should be cooked in a Bain Marie. Probably a lost art. Avila's has several locations and one may differ from another. The one I ate at is in Orange.

The carnitas themselves are the star--tender, juicy pork that's been slow-cooked to perfection with that signature crispy edge on some pieces, delivering rich, savory flavor without being overly greasy. It's seasoned just right, with a nice balance of porky goodness and subtle spices that let the meat shine. Wrapped in a large, fresh flour tortilla (they make their own in-house, which always helps), it's stuffed generously with the classics: fluffy Mexican rice, creamy refried or whole beans (depending on your preference, but both work great), chopped onions, cilantro, and a solid dose of salsa. I went with their green salsa for a bright, tangy kick that cuts through the richness perfectly, plus a dollop of sour cream and cheese for that creamy melt. No skimping on portions here--it's hearty and filling, easily a meal that satisfies for hours. At around $10 (give or take, based on current pricing), it's a great value in the area. The burrito holds together well without falling apart mid-bite, and the overall balance of textures--tender meat, soft rice/beans, crisp onions--makes every mouthful enjoyable. If you're in the mood for classic carnitas done right in a casual, bakery-taqueria spot with great salsas and a friendly vibe, this one's definitely worth grabbing. I'd rate it 4.5 out of 5--only docking half a point because it's not reinventing the wheel, but it's executing the traditional style exceptionally well. Highly recommend if you're near 728 N Tustin St in Orange! Pair it with an horchata, yum

Several times people have to ask to correct their order once prepared and given. Things go missing or are not the right order. The food quality does not seem to be consistent. Sometimes it feels cold and not as fresh like in years past. The ingredients used feel like they come from a can. Less ingredients and smaller item size has been noticeable for tortas and tacos. Some people will get more of an ingredient than others. The size of other items ordered varies. You can order same as your companion and get something that looks and tastes different. The hand made tortillas you could buy still taste somewhat similar. The bakery side still seems to hold up to tradition and taste. The cleanliness of the place has also changed. It is a bit less kept. The sitting area can get filled up quickly by a single person or groups during peak times.
