Great quick lunch!…read more We were able to order quickly at the counter and then find a place to eat out on the patio for our large group. The food came quickly and was all delicious. We tried four different tacos - all amazing, and a sidebof rice and beans that was so flavorful and large it could have been a meal itself!

Loved that all the food is homemade including the tortillas. We ordered the carne asada and chipotle tacos along with an order of eloté. We could not have been more pleased. They offer both indoor and outdoor seating and we grabbed a table under a big tree. The menu offers some great selections. I was tempted to try the chilaquiles but tacos always get me. Carmen's Famous Tortilla Soup looked really tasty as well, so it looks like I have a reason to return. Alcohol including tequila is also served along with refreshing aqua frescos. Our food came out fairly quickly and it was hot and ready to eat. Tacos were juicy and the eloté although not the best I have ever had still provided good flavor. Location is easy to find although parking was tight. Perhaps it was the time of day we came and it was a weekend. Service was quick and efficient. Ambiance was perfectly beautiful sitting amongst the trees. I would recommend should you find yourself in Bend stopping here for a little bit of Mexico!

Absolutely one of the best taco trucks I've tried. Stopped by on a whim and ended up ordering way…read moremore than planned because everything smelled incredible. The tacos were packed with flavor -- perfectly seasoned meat, fresh toppings, and tortillas that tasted like they were just made. The salsa had real heat and depth, not just spice for the sake of spice. You can tell they care about the food. Service was friendly and fast, even with a small line, and prices were more than fair for the portion sizes. This is the kind of spot you come back to and bring friends to. If you're craving legit tacos from a food truck that actually delivers, this place is 100% worth stopping for.

Seating is in an open air space, but enclosed during cold weather.....would be great seating during warmer months! Water available at counter--w/limes in jug! Some alcoholic beverages available--I would suggest the Cosmic Fresca!!

I ordered one el pastor and one barbecoa taco. Between the two this is how much fat they gave me,…read morealmost enough to fill one of the tacos. I took it to the one person at the counter and asked what she thought of this (see pic) and her response was that there's a lot of fat in barbacoa. I said the fat was from both. No offer for any discount or to make anything right. Last time I was here we waited forever for our food at 1130 and they mixed up the order of our ticket. Maybe Abe's or Yumm instead next time.....

It's the best street taco restaurant I found in the area. I grew up in San Diego, so I do have some ideal about real Mexican food By the way, Taco Bell is not Mexican food it's fast food that looks like Mexican food El Sancho hands down is the very best casual Mexican restaurant They also offer Mexican sodas with cane sugar Cocktails and a good variety of beers

I definitely enjoyed it bc it was colder than I realized. My friend and I split chips and guac and queso. I was surprised the guac wasn't very good. My friend thought maybe it wasn't fresh. I thought maybe not ripe avocados? The queso was pretty good so I mostly ate that. Our food wasn't brought out all at once and we got confused and my friend inhaled one of my tacos and we didn't realize it till our second wave of tacos came out. The waiter was so cool about it- he rapidly brought me a new carne asada taco for free! I also got a potato poblano taco which was good and different. But my fave was the carnitas taco blacksmith style. This is a secret add on of melty oaxacan cheese and omg it's so good. When I come back I'll be getting everything blacksmith style!

Los Vampiros! These were great! I think I got one in asada and one in pastor and both were perfect…read more Its about time establishments toasted a layer of cheese on the tortillas and then topped with savory meats, less chance of breakage and you get some crisp. I will definitely try them again. Husband got the quesadilla, which is fine if you like a LOT of melty gooey cheese but I prefer the crispy stuff. Anyway! Short and sweet - this place is good, try it!

Don't ask if they do the consommé with the birria tacos! When I did, the answer was "we don't serve them that way" like they're too good for that? Is consommé an American thing? Oops! I preferred the carne asada tacos anyway. And I tried the avocado sauce because other reviewers liked it and wow it's spicy! Don't dump it in your rice like me- I couldn't eat the rice after that!

Stopped by based on Yelp reviews but it's a miss for us. Except for the customer service. The name…read moreon our receipt is Martin. He was super helpful and kind. Randy ordered the chile rellano and a cheese enchilada. The enchilada was filled with cheddar and no white cheeses and not much of it. The chile rellano was better but the crema didn't have much flavor. The filling of the rellano lacked flavor too so he added salsas and that helped. The beans were too thick and the rice was dry. I ordered grilled chicken tacos and they weren't good. Overcooked meat and no flavor. I added some salsa and that helped a bit. I'm sure it's an us thing. We are used to so much more flavor.

This is a large Mexican restaurant right outside of downtown Bend, in the same building as Upp Liquids and other shops and restaurants. We came in the evening and there was a decent line that went fast. They have seating outside, plus some tables inside, and a nice sized loft of smaller tables above the kitchen. They have a great varied menu, all made fresh to order, with reasonable prices for the quality. Beer and sodas are also available. This is a great option for a fun meal!
