Not my favorite taco place. I ordered the barbacoa taco plate and I was unimpressed. The barbacoa just tasted like shredded beef that was marinated with beef broth. The wait time for the food was a little long, but the cashier was so kind and patient. Note: there is no customer restroom access on the inside, and the menu is confusing. read more

Barbacoa was perfection and the taco bowl was actually really filling. It has beans and rice at the bottom. The restaurant is pretty small but I noticed a lot of people were ordering take away. I'll be back for the service. The lady working the front was so sweet and full of joy. She had a smile on her face with every person she interacted with. Her joy was contagious. read more

This is a great little taco shop that needs more recognition. Very nice family owned and operated. Fast service and this was the first time I was introduced to carne asada fries and I am a huge fan now! I highly recommend coming for some rolled tacos and the carne asada fries. read more

Another simple yet delicious taco shop in the area! I was very surprised at how extensive their menu was, but pretty much everything you can think of is on the wall. The lady was very nice when taking my order, and the service was very fast. I ordered a pastor quesadilla. Ngl it looked just ok, but the first bite changed my mind. The pork was seasoned and smoky, and they did not skim. I really enjoyed the meal, definitely recommend! read more

So I know I've reviewed this place a few times before but it deserves updated experiences simply because this is one of those small businesses that just gets it done right. The ladies who serve and cook are genuinely friendly and amazing cooks. Crazy to think we went to have a birthday dinner at this modest location because the food is that good. We had tacos de pollo, fajita, and our favorite tacos de papa. They even brought us a churro as a birthday dessert. Ignore the modest exterior - give it a chance for great Mexican street tacos and more. read more

As always great tasting tacos! Can't beat them for the flavor and price! These smaller shops are the best!!

they have the best tacos in the area. everything here is amazing and delicious. The lady that works behind the counter I think is the owner and she is always so nice to me when i come in. When I sit there and stare at the menu b/c I'm being indecisive, she always will make recommendations of things for me to try. Everything she has suggested when I can't decide is always a GREAT BIG HIT for me! The location is an old old old taco bell but it's clean, but divey at the same time. hahah. come eat some tacos! Or gorditas!! read more

The lady is very sweet and the food is amazing! 100% recommend everything on the menu is great.

Everything you could ask for in CA taco shop. Food was good, plenty of flavor and it comes out hot, what a concept! So often these types of places are basically short order and everything is dried from sitting on the line since whenever. Service was better than expected from a QSR and although a bit dated, the place was spotless. I highly recommend. read more

Wow, so happy we tried this place. Lately we haven't had the best luck when trying brand new Mexican food places, we've run into a lot of them where the food has little to no flavor. But the overall great ratings this place had, had us optimistic and I'm happy to report that the nearly five star rating this place has is well deserved. The food was excellent, we tried a variety of items, the California nachos, chicken flautas, and two different gorditas one carne asada and one pastor. Again, everything was great and had the flavors that you'd expect when eating each one but for me, my favorite item was the nachos. The lady at the counter was really nice and helpful when ordering. The place itself is small, so I wouldn't do too large of a gathering there as the place can fill up fast. However despite that, this place is a must try for sure. We will definitely be back. read more

I enjoy California taco. Fast friendly service. Try the wet burrito. The place is kept clean! Support the little guy. read more

The food was AMAZING try the carne asada fries Carne asada tacos are very good as well. The customer service was very good, the lady at the front was so nice and helpful. Driving by you can easily miss this spot but you're the only person who will be missing out if you don't come here. read more

Rolled tacos! That is all you need to know. This spot is crave-able in every way. Be careful because you may just drive past it and miss it too. I had to drive around a few times the first time I went because I swore it was closed from the outside. There is the sweetest lady who works in there during the day. I would call ahead if you're concerned at all about waiting. It is more of a take it to go place but it actually is very clean inside with just a few tables. The fajita beef nachos are amazing with freshly shredded cheese. I get cheese every time because that is just how incredible it really is. I also enjoyed by (nonalcoholic) Sangria! If I lived closer I'd be here every day. Portions are generous and it is fairly cheap as well. Come here and try everything on the menu. You'll be glad you did. read more

The food is amazing, when they give it to you it's piping hot in a perfect way. The service is great too, the lady at the counter is very nice and kind. The longest time you would have to wait is about 4 to 6 minutes and the tortillas are fresh and tasty and so is all the other food they make. read more

We did a drive through order and it was not good. 1 they didnt give a receipt when we spent $40 2 my wife ordered 2 gorditas they didnt make 3 i ordered a quesadilla burrito with chicken and instead they gave me a chicken quesadilla. 4 they dont answer the phone read more

Burrito is outstanding! It used to be a Taco Bell, was then Mimi's kitchen, now it's the California taco shop. California nachos are good as well. read more

Now that I'm leaving town, I'll share this taco gem. You will not find a more courteous restaurant operator than the one that greets you, takes your order, and delivers it to your table where you are sitting. Hospitality at its finest when you can remain seated. The food comes out hot EVERYTIME. They don't charge extra for their generous assortment hot sauce provided. The food is never bad. Oh, and no charge for a proper sized water cup. I'm pretty sure they're closed on Sundays, but that's the only down side. Stick to the al pastor or carne asada, but everything on the menu is fantastic. Enjoy. Great service just augments their even better food!! I think everyone finds a favorite place they never review. This is mine. read more

Thank you for making the delicious tamales for my family for Christmas. They are so good and the customer service is wonderful here.

Amazing food served by some lovely ladies. The ambiance is that of a 1975 Taco Bell, but tje food is the reason to go!

This place is still my go-to taco shop, and I have never had bad food or a bad experience here! They are always smiling, happy to help, and serve up hot, fresh, and insanely delicious food! We tried the chicken fajita meat last time, and I think it is my husband's new favorite menu item. ;) read more

My husband and I came here randomly for lunch because we always pass by it, and it looked super cute. We had carne asada tacos and gorditas, and it was so flavorful. The meat is really well seasoned. They also give you three different salsas to go with your meal. The beans and rice are AUTHENTIC in flavor and execution, so so good. The inside is very cute and homey. Nostalgic, clean and organized. The service was lovely, the lady was really busy in the back preparing food so it did take a minute for her to appear, but she does have a bell for you to ring if you wait too long. (We weren't in a rush so we didn't ring it.) But she was so kind and told us her favorites, and had our food out very quick. All in all, we will definitely be back because the food was so delicious. read more

Their menu is HUGE and all over the place. Want fish and chips? Carne asada on fries? California tacos, fried tacos, regular Mexican street tacos...?

They also have kid's meal options and Horchata. Come on in! They'll have SOMETHING you will want. Plus it's cheap(!) read more

California Tacos Shop - Nachos... Big enough for two hungry people - Tacos Near Me - Hurst, Texas

We've been coming to California tacos since it was under the former owner. It's a small family owned shop that take pride in both their service and food. We've ordered just about everything off their menu and they've all been great. Of course there are always a few items that don't "taste like grandmas" but they are still good!!! The prices are phenomenal for the amount of food you get! I am a salsa lover and you get three flavors per table that are served in ketchup bottles so you never run out of salsa!!!!!! If you're looking for a fancy five star restaurant that provides valet, this is not your place. If you're looking for authentic Mexican food, great service and a clean facility, this is the place for you. It's a five star hole in the wall joint hidden in the heart of Hurst. read more

After eating here a dozen times in the last few months I had to bump them to 5 stars. The service and quality is so consistent. I call in all my orders and it's always ready exactly when they say. They're always friendly. They've never gotten any orders wrong or given food that wasn't fresh. The barbacoa is still my favorite, but I've also come to love the carne asada fries. I like to switch it up sometimes and get pastor on the fries instead of carne asada meat and they're always nice about the customization. read more

I hate leaving reviews like this, but they have hours on door that say they are open on Saturday until 4pm and yelp shows 5pm but it is only 3:08 pm. Both doors locked with open sign on. I called to see if drive thru was open and got their answering machine and the mailbox was full. I have read rave reviews and wanted to try it :( I hope everything is okay inside (can't see in the windows) and I hope they didn't close permanently. I will happily delete my comment if I find them just closed for an emergency and I get to try their food. :) read more

Very disappointed on the Carne asada fries, They changed the fries from Crinkle fries to very thin fries, flavor was not the same

Went there for lunch. First time there. Was not sure it was open at first and the road construction makes you think twice about trying to stop, especially in the rain like we did. We'll worth the effort. This is a small "joint" with a big menu. Loved the street tacos. Rice and beans were killer. Can't wait to go back and check out more of there options. May not look like much from the outside but don't let that deter you. The service is wonderful as well. Great people. Great food. Check out this little gem when in Hurst. read more

Loved it, friendly staff, clean, food was fresh, flavorful, I'm definitely coming back. I knew after I ordered my food and the people eating behind me didn't leave a crumb on their plates, I had a good feeling, and I had an even better filling.....at the end topped off with a fresh delicious churros I shared with the wifey. read more
