We had some business to attend to in this area (we don't normally head this way) but I'm glad we did and found this place in passing. It's located in the corner of an intersection and the drive through directions (like where to enter and order) was kind of confusing so we went inside to place our order. I would definitely describe this place as a hole in the wall kind of place- there's a few chairs and they have a grill on the patio where the tv was playing a soccer game. Not all their staff speak full English but they were all super nice and friendly. The food is what gives this place 5 stars. We got the super mulitas with lengua and al pastor- it was soooo good, probably the best I've ever had (Sorry tacos el Gordo). It was about an inch thick and packed with so much meat that I could only eat 1/3 of the mulita before I got full. I will travel back to this area to visit again. read more

I decided to try DoorDash for pickup here because they were running a BOGO deal, so I got two Mar y Tierra Burritos (Surf & Turf) for the price of one. Sounds great, right? Well, turns out each burrito was like half the size of a normal burrito. So, technically, I just paid for two halves of a burrito, for the price of one. Not exactly the "deal" I was hoping for. LOL. But hey, the flavor was pretty good. Tasted good, but there was a lot of rice, and I could've used more meat and shrimp. The sauce was spicy, just the way I like it. And shoutout to the guy at the drive-thru... super chill and gave me extra sauce when I asked, because I gotta have that sauce! read more

Loved the smell of the charcoal grill going as I walked in. Order tacos at the counter & give your ticket to the cook out back. 1. Carne asada burrito- huge meat portion, didn't take in as much al carbon flavor that I was expecting & needed a bit more seasoning. Salt shakers on the tables & ask for salsa at the counter for your meal. 2- Tripas taco- u can request how well you want them cooked. I got them crispy & it was the best! 3- Adobada- Trompo isn't just for show, sliced freshly broiled off the trompo 4- Red and green salsas r pretty basic with grilled onions and jalapeño at the taco station. Everything needed a hit of salt and lime to kick it up. Recc. dining in and enjoying everything cooked fresh. Everyone was super friendly and attentive! Sorry Chula, think this chino just found my fav tripa spot. read more

The adobada tacos were the star of the show. They were flavorful, juicy, and packed with meat and avocado. So good - definitely order some if you give this spot a try. I also had the 5 rolled tacos and CA burrito. Cashier was friendly and there's plenty of seating inside. read more

worst place ever had me waiting for 25 min. guy was just standing there on his phone while asking to order. Didn't even bother to give me a response. what is the point of having an employee if they aren't going to work. Never coming here again !!!! read more

I wish I can put no stars I had ordered rolled tacos when I got home 2 mins away they was cold soggy and greasy so I went back and told them and asked for a refund the cashier drive thru caught a attitude and try to say I was there a hour ago never again will I support this business read more

This place is terrible for california burritos , I ordered a cali and most of the "meat" was fat.. Every bite i took was chewy and rubbery i had to keep taking it out my mouth and throwing it , it was mostly fat not meat, the burrito was flavorless fries where mushy the only thing that was really good was the red salsa other then that my burrito was disgusting definitely not a place to get a cali..I would give zero stars it i was able to i will definitely never get a cali from here again. read more

Love this place,the campechana fries are great and the service is fast And they have karaoke on weekends read more

The food was absolutely incredible. The meat was well cooked, and all the salsa were fresh! The service was actually incredible. They're very quick and thorough with their service although they are busy they are efficient. It's a cute little shop and I definitely recommend for a quick bite. read more

Carne Asada is full of fat. Terrible quality. Salsa tase old. Do not recommend. Also they are not open at 8 am they are open and 9 am.

My husband and his crew eat here when they are working and since he was working FathersDay he stopped in to grab this to take back so we could all have lunch together. My daughter and I got adobada tacos which were so good and with that gauc, onion and cilantro mmmmm!!! My husband and son got the adobada burritos, those were huge. They definitely could have shared that. My dnl got carne asada fries. The adobada is so flavorful! I'll definitely be back. So bummed I didn't get a pictures! But there's always next time! read more

It's hard giving this place a two but definitely deserves it. Salsa 2/5 - it's very watered down and they only have green salsa. Service 2/5 - they were average and took our order but they didn't give me the side of sour cream that I ordered and payed for. Also, they almost forgot my horchata, was about to drive away but remembered I ordered a horchata and had to remind them. So with that alone, wouldt come back. Bacon Breakfast Burrito 2/5 - mainly fries with very little bacon. Food was super dry so hard to digest. Luckily, me and my girlfriend split the burrito because we did not enjoy it. read more

Theyre horrible at answering their phones to take "phone orders" you literally have to go there in person. They dont have a set schedule for their tent set up and cant even call to get it verified before driving down if its set up or not. The taco shop itself taste horrible but that little taco tent is what keeps the place running. Wish the workers were more attentive as well and nicer when taking orders. Takes forever to get your food. The area is not the greatest either. read more

Delicious tacos! Excellent service! Best time to get the tacos is when they are cooking them outside on the grill- read more

Did a quick stop here for a breakfast burrito one day when I was gonna get my car worked on down the street. Decided on a SURF & TURF instead and it was BOMB!!!! Good sized shrimp and plenty of them!!! I hate when they put in just a few little ass shrimp and fill it up with rice. Definitely pricey but that's expected, but we'll worth it!!! No pix this time sorry read more

This looks like a typical little orange-and-yellow taco shop like you see everywhere in the city. With one exception: they have a grill out front and they make true, authentic street tacos Al Pastor (after 5pm). Yes, Carne Adobada on the spit, shawarma style. It's the real deal. Of course they have all the usual items on the menu too, but I still haven't gotten past the $2 street tacos. The Pastor tacos are some of the best in the city. Carne Asada is great too, and the suadeño tacos are tender and tasty as well. Beyond those, you're on your own cuz that's all I've tried so far. Ayberto's will never need to advertise. The smoke and the aroma coming off the grill are all they need. Do yourself a favor and check this little place out. You'll be happy you did. read more

I am not complaining abou the food. But every weekend outside where they eat they put music on and sing so loud that I have to close all the windows and doors so that I can hear my tv. I live across the street. They set up outside around 3:00 pm and their boisterous music starts later and ends around 12-12:30 AM. Now supposedly they close at 11:00pm. Not a happy camper! read more

We come here almost every week since moving to the neighborhood and love their food and have appreciated the kind service as well. I always use the drive through tho did walk up once and got to see the inside. Clean and plenty of places to sit. They are my favorite go to for Mexican for sure. read more

The meat is good here, but the prices are terrible. I paid $10 for 2 adobada mulitas. The size of these I can get 3-4 at other places near by. Seeing so many bad reviews on here you would have thought they would up their game by now read more

Amazing, amazing, amazing street tacos. Sorry, I can't speak to the other food since we just ordered 10 $1 pastor tacos. I typically drive past Ayberto's on my way to my sister's house and the incredible smelling smoke cloud beckons each time. Recently, I believe they have changed ownership (or, at least, names) and cleaned up the location, adding a fresh coat of paint and moving some of the sketchy lawless characters elsewhere. Anytime the spit is turning, it seems this place is packed to the gills with a line around the corner. Parking is scarce in the lot, but there is also street parking in the area. You order indoors at the counter and are provided with a ticket to take to the cooks outside. They shave the pork and compose your taco with cilantro, onions and salsa para aqui o para llevar. We opted para llavar and they wrapped 3 groups of tacos in tin foil and placed them in a white paper bag. They also offer limes to add, if you desire. Although there were about 20 people in line, it moves quickly. They seem to have it down pat, and typically have the longest line after the church next door lets out their parishioners. I still dream of these amazing tacos and wish I could have some now. read more

I do love this location due to the fact that it is very easy to find and literally on the corner of the street. Also, it has a Drive-Thru! Also, I love their tacos to be honest, especially the Buchi Taco. And also, to get the full experience, I bought a Large Horchata. And I was surprised that it wasn't the regular Large Cup! It's like a pitcher! Lol. I love it! read more

It's honestly a cheap fix and typically not too bad in terms of waiting but the staff is HORRIBLE. Like today the girl who took my order and went ahead and IGNORED my instructions. I am ALLERGIC to avocado, as in my throat closes up and my mouth goes numb if I have avocado. I asked for NO GUACAMOLE. Again, it's not because I don't like it but I am allergic and I told her as much, she just repeated it back to me but as soon as I get home I find guacamole all over my food. I'm not being picky, I'm just trying to keep myself out of the ER and they just can't seem to grasp what a food allergy is. Not only did I explain to her but my order was pretty big and when I asked for extra salsa she said there's some in the bag, turned her back to me and ignored me. HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. Can they just get someone that actually likes working with people and who listens to the customer instead of gossiping with the staff and being rude to the customers on the drive through. Not to mention her incredibly long, yellow nails are not proper for handling food. Definitely avoiding this upsetting experience in the future. read more

In line with one car in front of me for about 10min. I asked "is it too late for breakfast burritos "? She asked what type? I said bacon, ham, & cheese with No egg & No potatoes. She asked a question I didn't really understand, so I repeated my order. I get home. I have a burrito with egg, ham, & cheese with no bacon. I can't eat eggs, so I ended up giving the burrito to my father. Then I called the number on the receipt & the guy answered "hello", he didn't speak English & didn't give the phone to anyone who did. I have no problem with Mexican people working there but as a business at least have someone who can speak English answering the phone. So now my money is gone & im still hungry. I won't be going here again. read more

Order a carne asada burrito wasn't good at all the only reason I'm giving it 2 stars is cuz the cashier was a hottie

Don't bother going out of your way for this spot. The adobada and carnitas are the best tacos they have on the menu. Carne asada is full of cartilage or veins. Their tortillas are okay and their in-house red and green sauces are lacking in the flavor department. I was also, surprisingly, disappointed in their limes which were completely dry and devoid of juice to squeeze on the tacos. Service was so-so and the seating is garbage. Location is okay but nothing to write home about. They accept cash or card here & have a drive through of necessary. Anybody writing about great food here is misleading you as it's mediocre at best. It gets 2/5 based on cleanliness of location, almost decent tacos and weak sauces. Feel free to drive elsewhere to get your fix in town, nothing is overwhelmingly great about eating here unless you don't have time to go elsewhere. read more

Tacos are good but you're risking your life going there. The people who hang outside the liquor store (Shares the parking lot with the taco shop) are dangerous but they mostly keep to themselves. Some occasionally come up me as I'm exiting my car in the parking lot to ask for money. There's been two different shootings outside the liquor store that resulted in homicides in the last two months. read more

Best taco shop in the hood NO CAP honestly never been to a better taco shop in this zone on my momma

If I could give this place more stars, I would. Customer service 10/10, food 10/10, portion sizes 10/10.

Came to this spot because of the google review meat is dry taste old and this is on the tacos. The rice on the plate was crusted the only thing good on the order where the rolled tacos read more

Best mexican food i've ever had. Especially the Campechana fries.

Tripas and Buche tacos?! This place is great for a taco run! Hella worth the money! It's a hidden gem & I compared it with the actual TJ tacos when I went to Mexico and it's actually better than the street taco stand in TJ (my own opinion). I do hope they improve with the service because the cashier was on her phone the whole time and we waited a long time just to order. Anyway, TRY THIS PLACE OUT! read more

Been a regular customer here for a few months after my sister recommend this location for good, authentic tacos. I came mainly because I was looking for authentic, Mexican tacos. Their tacos are very good, affordable and large in size-- a very generous in size, rather. Rolled tacos are also very good and they serve them with lots of guacamole and their carne asada fries are amazing. The star rating is mostly based on costumer service and the fact that if you go through the drive thru, you could end up sitting there for 30 minutes waiting for your food. Once you pull up to the window after waiting so long you encounter rude girls. You cannot even ask them for extra salsa without getting a reaction out of them. Luckily, it's only the service that sucks here and not the food. I may not be satisfied with service but I've returned for their food. I'd recommend coming around 1-4pm during the week if you want to get in and out in a timely manner. As far as the interior of the place, it is very small and the floor is slippery. I do not recommend eating inside this location. You're better off ordering to go. read more

So I went to order food and it took about 30min to receive the food through the drive thru (They did not have a lot of clients at the time I went) I had ordered roll tacos, beef quesadilla and fish tacos with no mayo. When I received the food the tortilla on the fish tacos where cold, they put mayo when I had asked not to. They put so much that I couldn't even taste the fish and they didn't add the chipotle sauce it's like the cook didn't care for the customer. When paying they did not give me my roll tacos and asked if they wanted to make it for me after 30 min waiting. I refused because they had already had me waiting long enough and I wanted to get out of their already. I'm not giving it a 1 star because some of other food they have is good but I wish the owner did something about his cooks who don't care for the customers food. read more

Their Cabeza and Lengua tacos are fire. This is the closest I've ever come to Mexican Street Tacos. And, on Tuesdays they only cost $1 each.
