Has typically been decent. This last was absolute $hit. Lemme elaborate... Wifey got the classic chicken salad w/balsamic dressing. Far from classic. Loaded with iceberg lettuce and I mean loaded. The least expensive inclusion in a salad. That said, while it is supposed to come with cucumber slices, it did!!! All 3 of them. Lettuce was obviously not entirely fresh as there were soggy limp leaves throughout. The grilled chicken was dry and tomato slices were about an inch thick. The tomatoes and dressing were the best part of the salad. Wifey refused to eat the vast majority of it as thoughts of salmonella and psyclosporiasis began to dance through our heads... On to my "Maria's Salad Burrito w/shrimp" and an avocado "extra". (For a mere $3.50 extra I might add). When they advertise "with shrimp" understand they are being literal. One effing shrimp in the entire burrito. ONE. O.N.E.. ONE... As for the avocado, it too was virtually non existent. Maybe 3 little fingernail sized pieces. Will never ever go back to this piece of $hit establishment. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. I refuse to be shamed. You, Prontos, have been.

I went here on a recommendation on Reddit's r/SanPedro page, and I'm glad I went. The kind redditor…read moresuggested the tacos, so I ordered 3 chicken tacos with a side of beans and rice. There were a few things that really stood out and made me very happy that I gave it a try. First, the red sauce in the salsa bar: very legit! Spicy, but very flavorful! I also tried the green chili/tomatillo sauce, which was also very good and good counter point to the unctuous marinated chicken. And they don't go cheap on the meat. Secondly, the corn tortillas were made in house and were hefty! Very tasty and held together where other tacos need two of the thin store-bought variety to have a hope to stand together. Very good. If I had the tiniest critique, I would say to add a tiny bit more salt to them, but I have a theory why they may go scant on it, and I respect that. Third, the beans and rice: The beans were very simple, but simply good. It takes a lot of guts to make and serve simple pinto beans boiled with salt. I know! What a concept! But simply delicious, and made to complement the rest of the food, and not distract from it. It takes a lot of confidence in my opinion for a restaurant to have such faith in their food to leave some that should be simple, simple. The same was true for the rice: simply well made, not over done with a ton of ingredients. It was well made: the individual grains didn't stick together. And it was unctuous without being overbearing. If I had to guess, I would say that they used broth and chicken fat. Simply good, and a complement to rest of the meal. Now to my theory. It makes sense that the masa would be light on the salt because it is the same masa that they use for pupusas, and the filling for pupusas (I just like that word) is savory and well seasoned. I'll let you now next time I got back and try the PUPUSAS! ;)

I usually baseline judge a Mexican spot on their salsas and their carne asada. Salsas are not great. I tried all of them and none of them stood out. Their green sauce is over blended and just doesn't taste great. Asada wasn't the best quality and had gristle. Lengua was kind of shredded into pieces and by the end of the taco I didn't really want to keep eating it. Chicken tasted like it was seasoned with a ramen packet or something just odd seasoning.

Food/Drinks: Guacamole/Salsa and chips to start was not bad (could use more salt). Food was mediocre, chicken tacos came out hot but immediately turned cold. Chicken and cheese tasted old, but the ENCHILADAS DE MOLE were better. PINA CON CHILE margarita was the BEST!! Unfortunately, I won't be back.

The carne asada had great flavor, and having both sauces on top made every bite better. The red sauce brought a nice richness and the green sauce added a little tang and freshness that balanced everything out. Definitely messy in the best way. The Jamaica drink was cold and refreshing and paired perfectly with the food. The spot has that classic casual Mexican food feel where you know you're about to get a solid meal. Staff was friendly, service was quick, and everything came out hot and fresh. Definitely a place I'd come back to when I'm craving a good burrito.

The menu was also difficult to read because many of the prices had faded badly -- they really need to go over the board with a Sharpie so first-time customers can actually see the prices clearly. I ordered the birria plate. The portion of meat was very generous -- probably at least half a pound -- and it came with a few standard tortillas, a small bag of chopped onion, cilantro, plus three lemon wedges. It also included a small side of refried beans with cheese on top, which was unremarkable, and some mushy Mexican rice that could have been much better. The meat itself was definitely the best part of the meal. It also came with a small container of consommé, but it was only lukewarm even though I had driven just 10 minutes away, so the food overall could have been hotter. There was only one hot sauce included, and I didn't care for it at all. I also missed the usual fresh radish slices and the standard red or green salsa options that many birria places provide. The food was packaged nicely, but overall I was expecting better for the price. It came to above $18, which felt overpriced for the quality, especially considering there's no dine-in option. While there was enough meat for two people, I personally would have preferred slightly smaller portions with better overall quality and sides. I've definitely had better birria elsewhere, which is why I'm giving this rating.

This one is located in San Pedro on Gaffey St. Walking in, this spot had that old school cantina feel. It had cozy, colorful booths, worn in details and an authentic charm. It just felt like the perfect spot to eat some classic tacos. Simple, no frills and straight up classic. I chose to get my Tacos El Goloso go to favorite the Tacos Dorados de Birria. You can get 3 for $11.99, 4 for $14.99 or 5 for $17.99. These tacos always hit the spot. I love the crispy pan fried taco filled with generous tender beef birria. The dipping consommé is perfect and the side salsa is fire! I am happy to say this San Pedro location is just as good as the Torrance location. Compared to the Torrance spot, this one leans slightly more into that old school feel, but the tacos are just as delicious.
