Across the street from the Rosarito Beach Hotel sit two competing taco places that sling the best…read moreal pastor tacos I've ever had, and I've been going for decades. Marinated pork shaved off the trompo next to that huge flame, topped acrobatically with a toss of guac sauce. Heaven, and worth any detour. Angel's is the first place that comes remotely close to this. The best I've had since Rosarito a couple of years ago. Today was my first time there, and I'm an instant fan. I also had the asada, just as good, and the tripa, also wonderful. It is now easily my favorite taco place in Orange County, narrowly surpassing Tacos Los Cholos, which is also pretty darn good. At 11:25 am the line was short, but the place was already pretty full. After ten minutes or so the line was out the door. Taco Tuesday for $2.25 instead of $4 each is a no-brainer.

Definitely…read morea must-stop if you want delicious Mexican food! 5/5 Also, contrary to what recent reviews are saying, this place absolutely takes CARD. I'm unsure why recent reviews are saying Cash only, but I've been here twice in the past couple months and they accepted card. Just wanted to let people know in case you felt like you had to withdraw cash. Throwing a couple pictures to prove it lol

Best Tortas in the Cypress/West GG area, hands down!…read more I was feeling for some good Mexican, and I remembered the good Birria we had here some time back. This time I went a different direction though and picked up one of their Torta options - the Cubana. Fresh homemade bread with all of the fixings one would expect in a Cuban inspired Torta - quite large as well! The fam got Super Burritos, some with chicken and one with Al pastor. They had nothing but good to say - my son noting that it was really fresh tasting. The service was friendly and knowledgable, and they had our somewhat large order out in really good time. While you wait there's some arcade machines set to free play, a salsa bar with plenty of options, including roasted jalapeños. The place is clean with plenty of seating, and if I wasn't in a rush I'd have probably eaten there nust to get a few more rounds of Marvel v Capcom 2 in. ;)

I haven't written a review in a long time. But I just need to write this one. Dishonest, shoddy…read morebusiness that doesn't respect its customers. They tack on extra charges not listed on the menu. Ordered 3 tacos and paid $19 something (handed him $20 and got some coin change). It was 2 carnitas tacos (listed for ~$4.40 each), plus an El Jefe taco (~$6.75). When he said $19 something it sounded high, I questioned it and he said that's what it is. I didn't want to argue further. I calculated it afterward and this was overpaying by $2 something. The amount is not a big deal, but I don't like being stolen from. So I'm writing this, so that others may avoid the same annoying experience. I was hoping the tacos would be really good and justifies it. But they weren't. The El Jefe one wasn't even as described. He said there would be cheese but there wasn't. The guac tasted old. And the whole plate was incredibly oily. The carnitas ones were less oily but not very flavorful either, and there were chunks of fat. Never again. Also the place was just gross. They used the same ladle for all the sauces, so it was all cross contaminated. The bathroom looked like a mess and had graffiti everywhere too.

Today we showed up around 6 a.m. thinking they were open, but they were actually still closed. The door happened to be open, and the cook greeted us kindly and let us know they weren't open yet. As we were about to leave, he called us back and said, "It's okay, I'll fire up the grill and make you something," even though they weren't supposed to open for another two hours. That kind of service is rare and speaks volumes. What an awesome gesture! I definitely recommend this place. Thank you, Señor Taco!

I have always gone to this taco place ever since I moved to Cypress and they are very consistent…read more Their burritos are amazing and I've tried quesadilla there. It's also great but the underrated item is their hamburger or their cheeseburger so good. I definitely recommend you try it you wouldn't expect it to be good at a taco shop, but it really is the next time I come. I'm getting that cheeseburger service is great and fast and quick sometimes there is a wait when you get a crowded day like a weekend But other than that it's really good plenty of seating and there is food that even a one-year-old can eat

I like to get the asada and al pastor tacos, but my friends have gotten other items like the burritos, quesadillas, taquitos, horchata and everything has been good here. We like to get a side of rice and beans too. I also love their topping bar because it's clean and has good options like radish, cucumber, pickled jalapeños, extra onions & cilantro, and multiple different salsas (loveeee the green salsa). The workers are very patient even with big groups coming in on Tuesdays so I appreciate them! Highly recommend :)

4 star rating is for their 3-Roll Taco…read more This place has always been reliable for their carne asada, California Burrito, chicken chimichangas, and 3-rolled tacos. I've been coming here since it was originally named Alberto's...The outside seating has not changed. It's still the same round table bench with the red umbrella. Service is the same, they're pretty quick at getting your food prepped. Now I said that their carne asada has always been reliable, but my last two times I've ordered a carne asada burrito (sour cream and cheese only) or a CA burrito, IYKYK, their meat has tasted different. It taste like it's some carne asada and then like some other mystery meat, sometimes liver... Either way I stop eating it when I have tasted it being weird. Maybe it's the other meats they serve that get mixed in. I don't dig that. So for that I would rate them down to a 3 star. I'm rating their 3 rolled tacos as 4 stars! It's the best around. It has the crunch and enough meat inside. It's not all tortilla like some places. We always order it with sour cream and cheese only, with carrots on the side. I've tried adeltacos down the street and it doesn't compare. Get it here.

For takeout, check your bags please I understand they are…read morebusy & doing their best to ensure that your order is right. However, this is the 2nd time we've had a missing item from our takeout. We moved away, but grew up with Albertaco's and we LOVE IT. Carne asada fries, chicken quesadilla, cali burrito, their red salsa, chef's kiss. Last year May 2025, we drove and did takeout for our brothers birthday. We ordered 2 carne asada fries, and they only gave us 1 (our order was big). Yesterday, May 17,2026, I drove out here again for my brother's birthday request to do takeout for our entire family. Ordered 2 orders of their rolled tacos, finally got home to see that we only received 1 order of the rolled tacos, not 2 (we also ordered more things). Yes, you'd obviously like for everything that you paid for to be handed to you, but a lesson learned to check your bags!!! If something is missing, kindly let them know and receive everything you paid for. Not the end of the world, we love this place as this is one of our childhood comfort foods/go-to places.. we moved away and miss this place all the time, and to make our birthdays feel like home/childhood, we drive out here to show our loved one some extra love with Albertaco's BOMB food, but yeah, it's a bummer when you're missing things that you paid for & is shown on the receipt (will post receipt photo shortly).

A newer addition to all the neighborhood taco spots we love, and have on rotation!…read moreHouse made tortillas, I loved the rice and whole beans (rather than refried). I got one each of every taco available: pork al pastors, everything else was beef : cheek, lengua, asada, cabeza, labio- every meat morsel was tender and delicious. I asked for onions and cilantro on top. Self serve bar has mild green salsa and a delicious but spicy yellow orange (scotch bonnet?). Casual dining: you place your order and the food is prepared quickly. Served a refreshing jamaica (I hope I spelled that right) - just enough tangy to sweetness flavor, also tried the horchata . Was served by a kindly gentleman : I had asked for water but did not realize it was bottled and charged for each one. I asked if he would replace them with two more tacos instead (slightly close in price but not exact) and he did. Got a quesadilla for the child and it was a huge portion with no added spices so she enjoyed it. Parking was easy the afternoon I came. High chairs available. Clean restroom.
